The Old XBOX Megathread

[rocksta]

You also missed Survival Mode, which you would have been useful on.

I still ahve the game >_>

One time when there's nothing else to play I shall try this survival mode.

Things are never that bad.

There was a thunderstorm the other day, lightning struck nearby and everything in the room turned off for a second and now my xbox won't connect via ethernet

Halp?

I can't help (call Microsoft?), but when I was playing during a lightning storm, the power flickered for a second, and then started to Red Ring.....I freak out, turn it off....let it sit for about 5 minutes and all was better

[MDK]

Its been like this for a day or two. And it isn't under warranty. Oh well, guess I'll have to break out the torx 8 again.

[Ruki]

Force a RRoD somehow, and they'll fix/replace it

[Maxx]

Yeah, the lesson here is never leave your box plugged in during a thunderstorm, Microsoft will tell you that much when you call. I did it and it fried my power adapter, now my 360 isn't plugged in unless I'm using it.

[MDK]

Bugger. I'd complain about my xbox some more but then again I did get it for cheap.

* July 22: TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-shelled 1200 MSP ($15)

* July 29: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 1200 MSP ($15)

* August 5: 'Splosion Man 800 MSP ($10)

* August 12: Trials HD 1200 MSP ($15)

* August 19: Shadow Complex 1200 MSP ($15)

TMNT might have been fun for multiplayer but ehhhhhh on 1200 points. I might pick up Shadow Complex one day, kinda Castlevania/Metroid style action. Not sure if i'll bite at 1200 though.

[MDK]

What is that Trials HD? Is it a port of the motorcross trials game on steam? If so I highly recommend.

EDIT - I just checked and it is, check this game out people, its the most fun albeit frustrating game you'll ever play.

Looking at YouTube, I think so. Looks pretty crazy with all the explosions and rag dolling and what not. Will have to try that trial when it comes out.

[MDK]

I reckon it will be easier to play on steam with a keyboard instead of a control pad.

[LL!]

But they're all shitty anyway. :/

[King Ellis]

What's shitty?

[LL!]

All those Arcade games you just posted.

[King Ellis]

Oh, I see, i'm talking to the Delorean driving LL once again who has just returned from August 09 having played all these games.

[LL!]

Marty, I got urgent news!

[King Ellis]

Marty, it's your kids. They bought a PS3.

[Asuka's Gonna Kill You]

Just wondering who knows anything about 1 vs 100 here? Seen so much talk about it and 'coming 10th of July'. Is it playable tonight? If so, how, when and where? I don't want to miss out on trying it out (Y)

[Ruki]

There should be something on your dashboard that will give you all the info.
