Argh.

Find the 'enter' button man, posts like that are just painful.


Anyway with the 360 you do have to accept that they RRoD, currently its the only thing weighing that console down really =

Yeah, sorry about that. I usually don't type that much, but lately for someone reason I have just been going off with my creative writing skizillz!! Yeah, I agree with that though, but I think people are starting to get more confident in the console, or at least in MS, hopefully we will see just how confident they are when the numbers for Holiday 07 come out!


 It's interesting to note the generally positive view that American gamers have towards the 360 despite the RROD. I could only imagine the outcry if the ps3 had similar failure rates.

Although for what it's worth I do hope that Microsoft addresses this problem especially when they end up shifting from 90nm to 65nm for both the CPU and the GPU. I think at the moment they have started doing that with the CPU although I thought that the GPU was the one overheating so hopefully they will get to it ASAP. 

 


Generally most americans, specially my age really dont care, its got the games they want and its what everyone is doing. If it happens they dont really care, send it back and they get it back.



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

So, I am about to play Mass Effect, and I see that CoD4 is in the cd tray.  I go over to the 360, it is on btw, and I accidentally hit the power button.  Dammit.  Oh well.  I turn it on again, and guess what?  GUESS???  R R O D!!!  Whyyyyy!  Right when I am getting sucked into the world that is ME, why NOW?!?!  Last time I had the replacement plan at EB games, took it in, got a new one the same day.  Well guess what, the new plan just expired 2 months ago.  I was looking through my closet for it a month back, and was going to go get it replaced anyways just as a contingency plan, and noticed it was expired. SHIT!  2 months later, BLAMO!! Damn.  Anyone got the number for MS to call and get a box out here ASAP!!  I am going to go nuts without my COD4 and ME.  DAMN DAMN DAMN!! Oh well, hopefully the one they send me back will have the quieter CD drive in it too.  I noticed lately that sometimes shit would take a really long time to load in the OS, or whatever they call it, and I was pretty sure RROD was right around the corner.  Thanks god I have my PS3 to tide me over till then, now if there were just any games on it worth playing....

So, you are complaining cause you cant play COD4, yet you have a PS3. Go get the game for the PS3, it looks better anyway. As for the RROD thing, I just dont understand why people keep buying games for this console. You know its going to die, regardless how many times they fix it. I would have taken a sledge hammer to that POS some time ago.

Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

Really.....XBOX needs to do an advanced replacment option like Nintendo. They take your Credit card and send you a system the next day. You get it in 3-5 days and if you return the broken unit you don get charged a thing. If you dont return it they charge you full price on the credit card # you give.

Thats customer service.......of course Nintendo doesnt have a MASS failure problem like the 360 does.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

CDiablo - Why post anti-X360/MS stuff in 2 posts? I wouldn't try to troll/flame the X360 forums by hitting multiple threads with near the same thing.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

My friend works at a EB Games, he said if I really wanted one to just let him know, and he would put one to the side, so I don't think I will have any problems at all finding one :)
