That sounds like a great deal. I hope it's not one of those deals they offer for a few select folks only, but it seems like it is.

I got a email in December that said if you download The Ballad of Gay Tony DLC now you will save 400pts. I never got my 400pts and the fine print said 4-6 wks till they deposited the points in my account.

Anyone else having problems with live? I wanted to download Serious Sam and I kept getting the following message:

Cant retrieve information from XBOX live. Pleasse try again later.

Status code: 807b01f7

-It does the same thing for every game on the marketplace.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Yup I have a problem I tried to download the Mass Effect DLC and got the same status code.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Got the same this morning.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Major Nelson tweeted that they're working on Live problems this morning

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Apparently it is. Shit, I never get these deals and I get shit from XBOX live all the time. What gives?

According to this link all services are finally working properly:

I had an odd problem last night. I went through the Serious Sam demo and proceeded to 'unlock' the game which is, as everyone knows, instantaneous. Not last night. It proceeded to act like I was downloading the latest PS3 firmware on dial-up. Took about 5 minutes to get to 3% complete.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Same thing happened to me earlier with Serious Sam. Thinking it was a bad file, I deleted the demo and now have to re-download :mad:

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

RROD question: I figured I will go ahead and ask this question but I am afraid I already know the answer. They sent a sheet stating that I have to go back to Account Management and go into the Download History, select an item and then hit Download Again. It says to do this for every item in your history.

I have 600 fucking items in my Download History! I had no idea I had that much but is there an easier way of going thru this stuff? And does this DLC history include everything I have ever downloaded but also deleted?

Please tell me there is an easier way of going thru this crap. Pretty please.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Yup, it's everything (except a few that have been pulled like Yaris). Yup, you'll have to do everything individually. Yup, it's a pain in the ass, but going online to www.xbox.com and checking your account history there, you can select up to 20-30 items at a time to queue up and it goes a little faster.

How do we sign up for the dvdtalk group?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

There are 600 in your history, but that is everything. You only need to "re-download" games and DLC. Don't bother with demos, themes, gamerpics, etc. That should at least cut your list in half, if not more.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Sorry to throw a monkey wrench in this game talk but I've got a question about the "Transfer Kit" moving data from existing HD to a new one.

Does MS send one out "Free" only if you buy a new drive only or can you get one buying a used one?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Looks like you can buy one relatively cheap now.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Never heard of them but they have some decent prices on HD as well. I may send an e-mail and ask about it. Allot of place the Transfer Kit is $15 ot more.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
 

Last time I had to do this (and hopefully "the" last time) I logged into the xbox, and came to xbox.com to do this at the same time. Your queue will cap out otherwise, but if you're dl'ing/reactivating on the box at the same time, you can keep moving pretty fast (as fast as the Marketplace/History interface will let you.)
I'll say it again: I wish there were some way to permanently delete things from your history. I no longer need a reference to a two minute game video for a game that I have since bought.

No dice, Chicago.

None on the rack but mine still had the shelf tag, and had a sticker on the back wall of the rack with their stock number/on hand count (0) and another unknown letter code. Shelf tag still said $49.98, no sign of a clearance price anywhere.

Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot you only speak asshole. I didn't say we have ski resorts, just shitty weather in the state.

I don't know anything about your Winter X-Games so I don't know your hipster gear either.

I didn't say you said that you had ski resorts, I was still in the midst of googling it to make more fun of you when you posted, that's all.

Winter-X games? Nah, I'm all for the Olympics. Especially curling.

Is this theme "NSFW"? I've got kids in the house and can't have an inappropriate theme on my dash.

Anyone have the OXM disc that has the Borderlands Theme on it? I would like to borrow it if so shoot me a private message.
