I think an angel just lost his wings.

I don't think it counts, as it's not a multiplayer game - IOW, I don't need to be connected to Live in order to play it, so why should it make the list?

Because the Xbox Live Arcade top ten is a "Best Selling" list.

Shit...I got a talking dick when we did our chinese gift exchange.

Has anyone heard anything substantial on the rumors that Microsoft will be releasing a Blu ray drive for the 360? I really would rather not buy a PS3 just as a Blu player.

Anything can happen but that would be likely far in the future. From what I understand, MS wants to concentrate on VOD more than anything. I would wait until the smoke clears before running out and buying any BR player myself.

Well played, Steel.

Oh for sure. This is definitely a down the line kind of thing. I'm going to continue buying HD DVDs when they're on sale in the meantime.

can someone please email me a code ....... [email protected]


please

She's usually very cool about my hobbies but her approaching monthly friend had her all out of whack.

sure - we'll all get right on that thanks to all the great discussion you've helped spur around here.

No begging for anything. Please.

If anything, people should email me a Live code. I've provided endless entertainment to all you chumps.

I just think it's amazing that people beg for a code at all but having a new member do it out of the blue is shameful. Live is less than 6.00 for a month, right? If you have a couple hundred dollar system, a few 60.00 games and internet service then ponying up that cash should not be all that tough. I'm a cheap bastard but I even thought Live was work it in the original XBOX where the service was in its infant stage and relatively useless.

But I have to say that if I hadn't already given my latest trial to a friend I would of hooked you up Deftones.

Thanks, you were correct. I ended up receiving $314 for my 360, accessories, and handful of games which went immediately towards an 80GB PS3.

I doubt he'll ever check the board again - I'm sure he just spams game forums hoping to get something. We should spam his email in return.

But he has 27948 other email addresses to check, how would he notice one that gets flooded with spam?

Thanks, but I was making a joke. I just got a card for Christmas, so I'm good for the next year.

Actually it works out to only $4 a month... and that's assuming you pay full price for Live.

Oh I figured....I was too. I haven't even entered in the 1 free month they shipped along with my repaired unit. I wish they would include points cards because there is something that holds some value to me.

Is Live fucking down again, or is it just me?

I have been having problems this afternoon with it. I couldn't go to Marketplace to download some free content for a game, and it froze up when I tried to go into Arcade to play an arcade game (a trial version even).

Here is a code for you.

Just type it in right to left. It's guaranteed to work.

I was able to log in and play for an hour or so online with CoD4 with no problems (this was around noon EST).

Last night on the other hand, it was completely borked.

I've been connected all afternoon playing Mass Effect without it logging me off.

you got the code wrong, it is uoy kcuf
