Did you text today? Or did you text yesterday? Fiesta announces winners daily but I'm trying to figure out if they give out points to the previous day's contestants, or the people who get their texts in early enough in the morning that day. |

My friend had actually sent me this last week - none of us had ever heard it before. Makes sense, but still doesn't address issues people have mentioned about looking down to check.
Other game companies at the time assigned alphabet letters or colors to the buttons. We wanted something simple to remember, which is why we went with icons or symbols, and I came up with the triangle-circle-X-square combination immediately afterward. I gave each symbol a meaning and a color. The triangle refers to viewpoint; I had it represent one's head or direction and made it green. Square refers to a piece of paper; I had it represent menus or documents and made it pink. The circle and X represent 'yes' or 'no' decision-making and I made them red and blue respectively. |

Not to mention triangle-circle-X-square is much easier to say than A-B-X-Y. -ohbfrank- Just another reason I hate the DS design.

By the way, I hope you're keeping tally on all your wins. I'm still banking on that 10% once you've accumlated 40,000 points (or whatever we agreed on. I'll have to check with my lawyer.) |

Nice. Congrats! They do have winners daily, so they must just announce winners from all the entries to date not just from that day or day before.

And I;' waiting for that popcorntreect dude or whatever the F his name is to give me his winnings as he promised for me having to deal with 1598 users. But he's been silent, so I bet he's winning a lot. |

Does the 4GB 360 version come with a controller? Bestbuy.com's listing says it doesn't, but Amazon says it does.
|
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Yes it does. Even the launch Tard 360 came with a controller.
You can see the controller on the side of the box. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4122/...9551a39b_m.jpg |

For Time-Warner subscribers out there, the new agreement with Disney includes espn3.com which means access to ESPN on the Xbox when it launches. Not sure when access will be turned on.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Excellent! I've been hoping this was coming down at some point.

Yeah, PlayOn works fine (Hulu) in my Xbox 360 and PS3. I haven't tried in my iPhone or iPad since I think that's for Premium users and I haven't upgraded yet.
