I believe my 360 was a similar production date as yours and up until it RROD, I had never had 1 issue with it. I'm curious to see if I get mine back (doubtful with the turnaround), a refurb or a new unit. I'd either like to get mine back or a new one with an HDMI output, but we'll see what happens. |

Xbox customer service via phone was actually very helpful, and was able to provide me UPS tracking numbers on the coffin, as well as the outgoing shipment of my Xbox back to me.

Got my same unit back also.......the drive was alot louder, but man, my 360 can be on all day and still cool to the touch........

Hmmm Fable, might have to download that and finally play it...Not sure when I am going to have time in between Halo, NHL, Puzzle Quest, and the games I am getting for xmas.
|
Not once have I ever cared about the Artist of the Month thing Live offers until now...
Dream Theater is the December Artist of the Month! LIVE members on Xbox 360 will have access to exclusive performance, interview, and behind the scenes footage from Dream Theater's recent tour Dream Theater will be playing over Xbox LIVE on 12/5 in the Game with Fame program. Get onto Xbox LIVE and prepare to play your favorite band. Details at Xbox.com Awesome. Now, if only a track or two would show up in GHIII or RB. :) |
Hmm.. some Dream Theater in rockband. That would be nice.
|
How much will the Xbox Originals be and how big will the DL files be? (Not that I would buy any of them, I'm just curuious)
|
Every game will be 1,200 points ($15).
File size will vary by game. I think the OG Halo is 2GB. |
I was considering Psychonauts, but if the whole thing is handled like the live arcade then I might have to think twice about it. I'd hate not to be able to play a game because I somehow got disconnected from Live or decided not to keep Live.

Anyone who has not played Psychonauts should make it a point to get this game. I still stand solid behind my rating of Collectors Series and I will be spending the points to play it again. http://www.videogametalk.com/review.php?ID=146

Rumors have persisted about BG&E 2 for years. I won't believe it until I hear an actual official word saying the game is in development.
After all, there were also a lot of rumors that Kid Icarus would be "re-imagined" on the Wii. Nothing yet... |
So much lost potential...
Every programmer on here should apply for a job at Nintendo, just so we can persuade from the inside :) |
No need, Retro Studios is already working on the next Kid Icarus. :D2:

The eclectic score has been changed to a heavy metal/hip-hop soundtrack. Combat has been revamped with a heavy combo system and the photography, exploration and adventure elements have been removed.
