Get a saleen
Posted by Burgaz
i want something that turns!
Posted by scottt
Yeah i've got alll the big daddys, Koernigsegg, Saleen, Enzo, SLR, Chrysler ME-Twelve, and had a Mclaran and i gotta say the best all rounder is definately the Enzo, tuned to stage 3 it can keep up with a saleen on the straights and can get to 250 ish drifting but where it comes into its own is its handling, you can kick the back end out and catch it every time
SLR is pretty damn good too and you dont see too many about, so i say get either a stage 3 Enzo or stage 3 SLR
Posted by Burgaz
i'll bare that in mind but the missus (gamertag: Mooshell) is playin tony... So it'll be a bit later now. i got work at 11
Feel free to add her by the way... she has no friends

So we will assume from your statement that you're correct shall we?? I am afraid that the odds are stacked against you though with over 10 million units already sold and of course there's xbox live which when it comes to consoles is second to none!
You are entitle to your opinion however this thread has been created for owners, so unless you have something worthwile or constructive to write I suggest you don't bother.

Well said and completely agree
Knowone wants this thread ending up closed because of arguing over which console is better so if you either aint got a 360 or nothing constructive to say which wont start an argument i say stay out
On another note my Lost Planet faceplate came today, tiz very nice in fact i think i like it better than my PGR3 one, it blends in with the console better
And a quick pic of where my 360 is now situated, inherited the cabinet after we got a new TV with stand......on lookout for a HDTV around the £600 mark for myself to replace my current TV

I got my ass kicked last night playing cod3 online
playing battle on the Edar dam map but guys were up on the hills where i have no idea how to get to??? from the main house look right, up above the fence, there were snipers there on the hill high up.
Is this a cheat ???

Don't stand your console vertically. I have a friend who works for Microsoft XBOX R&D dept. and he said to me that he's been hearing things about discs being scratched or even eaten by the console (getting stuck so that the tray doesn't open)... Not good. Keep it horizontal, even if it is inconvenient, was like that for me, I used to have it vertical as it was easier to keep that way but after hearing this I found myself a small table to keep it on horizontally (more stable as well this way).

Will Microsoft consider this under there warranty? I only ask as i want to keep mine horizontally as its easier, i know you said not to but its only a console in the end.
Posted by Burgaz
i've read a lot on this... there is no real proof but on a lot of forums it seems that more people standing their xbox vertically experience the Red Lights of Doom than those standing them horizontally!!!
So there maybe something in it!
EDIT
And Scottt if ya wanna sell ya PGR face plate I'll give ya £20+p&p

Posted by p900 lover
what are the Red Lights of Doom?
Posted by scottt
PM Burgaz
I was reliably informed by a guy at my Gamestation that you should never shut the console down via the controller midway through a game, ie) you hold the guide button down and select shutdown console, as this leads to scratches on your games
Posted by Burgaz
oh i best stop doing that then! Dashboard fisrt from now on then!
P900 Lover - The red lights of doom is when the green lights on the front of the xbox go red... Normally it means hardware failure, but there are a few other codes, red the manual it tell you them all in there!

shite... better be careful not to do that in future then.
My TDU disk has a couple of scratches on it, i use my 360 on my PC monitor sometimes when the regular tv is being used (not very often) and i stand it vertically. Ive actually had it crash a couple of times saying 'the disk is damaged, dirty, or unreadable' when im in a showroom or my garage. Horizontal indefinitely in future then
@scottt, like the LP faceplate. Certainly blends in better with the colour of the console. How are you liking the game? I had a quick bash on a mates yesterday and it was quite difficult, but looked impressive
Posted by Burgaz
Moved mine... now in horizontal position!
Sorry about bailing on the race earlier guys my missus wasn't in the best of moods then the cat puked(left a stain on the sofa).... And besides... i've decided i need loads more practice in A Class cars!!! I'm shite! I was first for all of 30seconds in one race, then again for about 2secs in the other but finished 5 and 6th both times lol!
I'm only 60points off Champion level now!! Yay! And i've only gotta do 2 more single player challenges to get 40 points!! Almost there!
Posted by RyaN
lol that made me laugh mate when you said your cat puked. sorry! it was funny though... im sure it wasnt at your end.
Well i think you've got one of the sweetest cars in the Enzo, handles like a dream. That Koeninsegggggggg ive got has got a rapid top end, but doesnt handle as nicely and is heavier i think. The saleen is just a pig to drive. You'll get the hang of the A class' mate, just gotta remember to brake lol!
Once you get to champion level its really easy to earn $$$. theres a race called Alfa Romeo Day, you race it in the 8c competizione you won in the Island tour, it takes 1m 11secs to do it, and $75,000 prize. Easy way to rack up money.
Ive still got loads of races and challenges left to do, quite liking just doing them as and when now. Need to build up my car collection aswell, havent quite got to 20 yet
Posted by Burgaz
Cool, ah don't worry bout the cat it was pretty funny at the time, if not a little of putting....
75k a time!! Cant wait for that! I've only got 12 cars and only room for another 2. I've still got 400k in the bank but i'm hoping to bag a bargin once the missus gets off tony....
Posted by RyaN
yeah i always lose patience with the TRADE marketplace thingy. I think i should check it more regularly seen as you scottt and you have picked up some proper bargains like. Ive got 3 houses, not sure how much space ive got left now. Some of them are well costly! I guess half an hour on the alfa day race should sort that out
Posted by Burgaz
the race i've bin doin for money is called Total Freedom or summat... It's a speed camera one that takes about 90secs and ya get 40k for it. It's in the south below the crater... I spent about half hour doing it the other day to get the money for my F1... and then i sold it!!! i wish i'd of kept it to build up my collection but i was impatient. Ah well.... And yes the trade section bugs are arse... I've heard of people selling cars and getting no money and buying cars having the money go but getting no car!!
I spent a while the other day trying to work out if it was better value to buy a few cheap houses with 4 spaces or one big house with 12 spaces! Ended up with 2 smaller ones and blew the rest on car tuning...

Got 5 houses i think now with around 25 cars, and around 800,000 in the old bank
Bout Lost Planet, yeah its good but like you said is pretty hard, did the first level no problems got near to what i thought was the end of the second and turned the 360 off as i thought as you activated these data points they were like checkpoints but they aint ......
so gotta go through that again, online is very fun, its just funny blasting the Japanese As there are a hell of a lot of Japanese players. Dont have a clue what there saying most of the time like
Posted by Burgaz
i need M$ point too! I've had to use my wages this month to recover from Xmas tho... Only got enough left to survive now.... Bums...ah well....
Anyways i'm off to work prolly see you guys in hawaii tomorrow!
Posted by RyaN
both get some ms points and buy that koeningseggg...its a fast motor!! Theres a couple of good multiplayer top speed challenges we should do that are quite fun
Yeah Burgaz, you shouldnt have sold your F1 mate! thats a nice car for the collection. Next time you decide sell a car like that let me know mate and ill buy it lol
I think im gonna d/l that Lp multiplayer demo as i havent tried it out yet. From what ive seen tho so far i dont think i'll be rushing out to buy it like. Anyway im having too much fun on TD atm...most ive been addicted to a game for a while

I had a quick go on dead rising for the first time in ages earlier! I died and saved it! D'oh! Gotta start again...
Anyone playin GRAW or PGR?
Posted by RyaN
Ive got GRAW and PGR3 and i havent played either in ages. Keep thinking about playing pgr just for the online bit. We'll have to have a lap of the nurburgring later! Have u ever done the co-op missions online in graw? Theyre pretty good. Ive also got the additional content for it which cost like 1200 m$ points, it gives you more co-op maps, multiplayer maps and i think a couple of extra weapons. We'll have to have a game of that aswell boys.

Just Picked up a standard SLR for $300k. The trade servers are working great this morning but i can't access any online races nor can i see any other players just cruising?
I've played the Co-op on GRAW on link up. I'm guessing that's gonna be the same as online? A lap round the ring later would be awesome! But i've barely played anything but TDU since i got my box and need to buy some cars....
See everyone later.
Posted by Danny_BFC
Im in the same boat as you burgaz. Haven't played it for a bit tho, carbon is addictive!
Posted by arien617
Is it just me or does nobody game completion thing go up. Mines stuck on 57% no matter how many challenges, races etc. i do. I got 5 houses and about 23 cars (last time I checked)
Has anyone seen the gameplay counter in TDU. It says that i've been playing for 49hrs in total.
Any of you guys on the rank after Champion. On game stats it says there is a rank after.
Posted by Burgaz
My went up from 33 to 34% this morning after doing some challenges!
I've now only gotta get 30 or 40 points to make it to Champion! next week when the missus is on a different shift i'll be playin loads! aint got the chance this week....
Posted by Danny_BFC

Posted by Burgaz

The big girl uses the driving aids on TDU! And there was me trying to be all hard core with them turned off... you guys wait till later!!
Posted by scottt
LOLZ, i have Driving Aids on now yeah as all the cars are Stage 3 A Class beasts unlike the little supermarket things you guys go around in
Posted by Burgaz
my SLR was doing alright until i came to a corner.... and it's me second class a stage 3(Enzo and SLR).... And then the missus started bithch at me about tony!! and how i'm always on TDU... Do me a favor guys add her and seen her abusive msgs!
Posted by ADT0079
lost planet is great i have beaten it on normal and going thru on hard now.online i think in up to level 26. send an invite if you wanna play online. x BANG x
Posted by RyaN
yeah man, believe scottt, you need some sort of driving aid on when using the A class', otherwise the acceleration is poo poo and the wheels spin forever depending on the car. lol try driving a saleen s7 with a stage 3 without a driving aid.
Will be on tonight from 7.30ish onwards... im quite up for something fresh tonight (aswell as a bit of TD
) i feel a bit of PGR3 coming on Oh yeah! You guys seen that PGR4 is coming out soon.....
