The Old XBOX Megathread

[King Ellis]

XBLA, it's kinda like Worms except that it's real time.

[Ruki]

That sounds pretty cool.

L4D or WaW?

[Maxx]

Just missed some

[King Ellis]

We could play again.

[Ruki]

Just message me when you want to play.

[alldaws1]

I'll play, too.

[Maxx]

Yes yes, trying to make a big EWB game now

My Xbox just froze... it's been giving me disc read errors all day as well. I'm gonna see how it's working without the hard drive, you guys might wanna start without me.

[LL!]

Has it Red Ringed before?

[zero]

It never actually Red Ringed, but it did begin freezing every time I loaded a game up. It was sent back and MS fixed it (or just sent me a new one), but I don't know what the deal is today. That's the first time it froze, but I've been getting a message that "the disc is unreadable" all day while playing Fallout. The disc itself is fine, so I'm getting the uneasy feeling that the 360 is on the fritz.

[LL!]

Awww, I was gonna say that you can take solace in the fact that if you did have to send it in it would come back all quiet and nice, but you already got one back.

And it worked completely fine today... go figure.

Exactly the same problem, works fine on certain days, the next it's horrendous. No clue if it's the laser or something on the inside. The games it does it with aren't in AMAZING condition, yet they aren't exactly bad either. Give me a heads up if you find a solution or any idea as to what it is. I really don't want to send my console in and wait close to a month or whatever it is, but I think I may have to within time.

So, Braid just got 400 chopped off it as part of the resurgance of Deal of the Week. You have to be a gold member (Insert Austin Powers joke here?) and it's only till March 1st. I may get it, I probably said at the time that I would bite when it dropped in price.

Cue Zero to tell us all that it's awesome and we should all buy it.

[zero]

The game is brilliant, save for the ridiculous storyline. You should all buy it!

Are the achievements, erm, achievable? I'm tempted by the much fairer price too.

Also, I apparently bought Interpol :/

[King Ellis]

I think Braid's are just ones you get as you progress in the game, don't seem to hard. Well, except for the speed run maybe.

And you bought Interpol? How the hell did that happen?

[Cactus Drags]

Hm, seems when I downloaded the trial (I download most the XBLA trials and never play them >_>), I actually purchased it. Either I lost track of how many points I had, or I haven't been charged for it. Still not played it.

And I still haven't taken Tomb Raider Underworld out of the wrapper.

I haven't opened Ninja Gaiden 2 and I got that for Christmas.

Anyone want to play L4D after Raw tonight?

[Ruki]

I don't think I should, you guys get pissed when I leave to go watch Heroes.
