Hmmm, id like to get my xbox flashed so it can run backups but id be worried about 3 things. 1. Voiding my warantee (does this only last a year anyway?) 2. Not being able to play on live and 3. f*cking my xbox up by doing something wrong lol. Do you know much about flashing 360's at all then burgaz, have you done yours?
Posted by Burgaz
nope i haven't had mine done sorry... I got given this unused and i haven't used it... Never really seen the point in copies cos all i seem to do is get loads of games that i never really play through! I'd rather keep the games i've got so i play them more, rather than just getting cheap or free games for the sake of it....
I hate working the same shifts as the missus everytime i turn the xbox on she wants to play tony...

yep i saw her on it not long after 11 last night lol. Im quite a big fan of the old tony hawks games, i used to rule at THPS3...the airport level and the baggage conveyor belt grind, used to be able to get 14million from that grind alone. Heh. Would like to get the new one as quite like the demo, but now got rainbow 6 to play through to keep me entertained.
I just saw in blockbusters that they are taking reservations for the game Crackdown which will have an invite to join the multiplayer Halo 3 beta. If anyone is hoping to join the beta for this, prob would be a good idea to reserve instore
Posted by mrmilo69
I'll probably buy it from GAME, get the beta and take it back within 9 days.
Posted by RyaN
yeah ive not really seen/heard much about Crackdown. But i can guarantee the only reason peeps will buy it is for the beta invite lol

Just to let you know if your wanting to take something back to GAME for either a full refund or exchange with something else the item has to be sealed, ie) still have cellophane wrapper on and xbox seal on the edge of the game.....
Looks like they stopped they no quibble return policy as too many peeps were buying games playing them a week taking em back and getting another over and over
Not sure on Gamestation, they used to let you take things back no quibbles without being opened but not sure, might of changed since GAME has...
Posted by Burgaz
True scott. i noticed that on the back of my tony hawk receipt.
As for the beta testing halo3, i was under the illusion that they were only beta testing in the U.S. and all this crackdown rubbish was suppliers assuming it would happen over here too? I'm probably wrong tho.

Bloody hell scott!!? I haven't had the time to get on mine lately... Got a fair bit of catching up to do i guess!
Posted by RyaN
You really are heading towards that ace scottt at an extremely fast pace! Ive got 2 races left to do, but a bucket full of other challenges to do. Will crack on with it sometime this wkend no doubt. Ive finally managed to score a few bargains in the trade section...got a fully tuned SLR 4 $400,000 and a fully tuned Zonda 4 $600,000 (not so much of a bargain, but saved some moolah nonetheless)

Well i'm a bit miffed... Played some TDU this morning online... I'd just come out of a D class race and was driving around in my Aston Martin when some guy in a Ferrari 430 offer me a race i accidently accepted and then immediately quit after explain there was no way it was a fair challenge he just laughed and left me negative feedback for unsporting behaviour!! WTF!! I didn't realise until i'd got back to the dashboard. So i had 3 and a half stars now i've got 3 again!!!
Damn american kids!!!!

Just had another go at Tantalus. The target time is 7'30"00 and my time including penalties was 7'30"38. Damn, sooooo close. I used a Chrysler ME FOUR-TWELVE for anyone that's interested.
Anyone had better luck?
Posted by Burgaz

EDIT: I just checked the woolies site and they have nothing....

urm, the microsoft points, well i paid £16 for 2100 off ebay..... there like £18 in the shops
should be a new dlc pack for TDU soon, theres loadsa rumours what new cars, Diablo GT, is one that i am hearing a lot of though
And can i say the TDU servers are a pile of w*nk, clubs are down, you cant see friends on the map and its impossible to join/create races at the mo.
grrrrr
Posted by Burgaz
Glad i'm off to work then...
Cheers for that scott, got yer PM will sort it tomorrow probably! Will pm ya when it's done!
Posted by craig_l
The original Smash TV is great! I need someone to help me out with the co-op achievements.
Toejam and Earl would be great. I'd defo download that. Attack of the Mutant Penguins would also be good! Did anyone else have that on their Atari Jag?
Posted by RyaN
i second that about the TDU servers.... absolute pants! Prob wont be on again tonight but will be on tomorrow night most of the night
Thats good news about the next dlc as well, looking forward to seeing some new motors. I actually noticed one car earlier which i never noticed before, in the Pagani garage...cant remember what it is called now but it looked well sweet. Maybe i got it in one of those dlc's?
Posted by craig_l
Has anyone else had a problem buying the Lexus from the garage after downloading it from Marketplace?
I downloaded it for free but cannot buy it. When I view it and press buy nothing happens.
Posted by RyaN
Sounds like a nasty glitch. Is that one of the free ones off the marketplace, or did it come in a pack?
Posted by scottt
That lexus is free, yeah, never tried to buy it myself.
What Pagani is it then ryan? The spyder version of the zonda maybe?
Posted by craig_l

Posted by Burgaz
i've done it again! wasted 1.5million on a stage 3 f1 gtr... i just can't help myself! anyone want it for 1.2million? i'll be flogging it at about 8 in the mornin...
Posted by RyaN
If you can save it til the evening Burgaz i'll buy it of ya for a mill
@scott I cant remember what that car was, it looked like a different make, but in the Pagani/*something* garage. Ill have a look tomorrow. Im probably just a bit delusional
Also i read this on wikipedia
| Quote: |
Four other cars (The McLaren F1 LM, Pagani Zonda C12S Roadster, Spyker C8 Spyder and the Lamborghini Gallardo Coupe) were at one time available, but the McLaren and Pagani were limited to the first 10,000 people who could acquire a friend's promotional code and enter it along with his or her own via the referral program, which is now closed. The Lamborghini was a promotion available only to those who preordered the game. Presently, the only way to obtain these exclusive cars is to obtain a Token code, with which you can gain access to the download, but each code can be used only once. The Spyker was a promotion only available to those that preordered the game at certain game stores, mostly in Europe. |
I want!!
