I got the "all codes redeemed" response. Should I keep trying?

Keep trying! Like I said above, I sent about 40 messages over two days before finally getting a code this morning.

I did! The wife-to-be sent five from her phone so far...nothing yet either.

Should I be waiting for a response before sending another one? Or should I flood it?

I mistakenly flooded it. And then got a flood of no's and then one yes and then a few "wait a minute, you've already won" texts.

Awesome, Thanks! I sent a total of 5 texts and finally got one. I thought it would say how much it was worth in the text, but you have to enter it first. I was actually wanting to use it as trade for PSN points, but if I enter the code will it be locked to my account?

I think if you do it on your xbox you can do it that way. But if you do it online, I think it automatically redeems it.

I texted the code over about an hour ago on a Verizon cell and just got the code back. 400 points later, I'm a happy dude. Many thanks!

Re: The Official Xbox 360 thread - thread hardest

Quick question guys my 360 I just grabbed comes with a little built in memory. Generally speaking, is this enough for game saves for a few games?

I have a 60 gig hd here that wont be used for anything as Im just looking to have enogh for saves.

Another question...

Right now I use the MKV2VOB to convert.H264 files so I can stream to the PS3 using PS3 Media Server without transcoding. Using the 360 it saw the PS3 Media Server.I tried to stream those files via the 360 but it didnt recognize any of the files. Anyone use software that does conversion like MKV2VOB but that works on both systems?
