[Definitive] Xbox 360 Thread


Recommended Posts

Is the only way to store music and videos on my xbox through Windows-Media-Connect?

If so big bummer.

P.s Can we have this as a sticky again please? Surely it doesn't matter if it's against the rules because it's been released or whatever, just alot easier to find it that way.

Thanks :)

What is the better option, VGA or Component, my dell 24'' has both option,

Does component already come with Premium?

For a TV with 1080i, I think Component. The Xbox 360 VGA Adapter goes up to 720p. I'm not sure about picture quality either way.

I would think VGA, but I'm no expert on that.

Yeah I think so, it wasnt hard to set-up though, just wish I had a stronger signal to stream recorded tv with :)

Finally was able to get a premium system on Jan 1st... went right to Walmart after a party on New Years(3am)..was the 3rd and 4th there(me and my girl got there after another couple<--1:30am).. got to sit in the car till 6am or so since everyone agreed to keep their respective order.....around 6:45am walmart manager came out and said we have 4 premium and 10 core... so luckily I was able to pick up a premium for myself and brother-in-law... overall not a terrible experience... just was tired as hell for the rest of the day..

So as I said on the last page, I was able to order one online last week through Circuit City's site. I was very excited when I saw it shipped the same day too, although that was New Years Eve so I did not expect all that much.

Then I actually saw that the games and extra controller that were part of the bundle shipped seperately from the console itself. On top of that they only gave a tracking number for the console which was through FedEx, and the games and everything else were just coming via US Postal Priority with no tracking number.

So I check Sunday and I saw the console is coming in Thursday! (Y) Sweet right?

Well, it is almost like some sick, twisted form of torture since the games and extra controller came today!!!! :rofl: :rofl:

I am not complaining at all, since I know they are still hard to get, just thought I would share it so you guys could get a good laugh, cause I sure did.

Is anyone bored enough to take a picture of the Samsung 26" LCD (the 'official tv') playing a DVD via the Xbox 360? Saw one in the shop playing a dvd on a normal dvd player and it was just meh....so hoping its just that setup they had. :\

DirtyLarry:

Has the 360 arrived yet? :p

:laugh: :rofl: Nope, looks like tomorrow. This is absolute torture!!!! :rofl:

You think you've got torture?! I've got to wait another...57 days for mine, and I got the VIP pack which has PDZ + a controller in it.. I take it out every day or so and press the buttons :p

DL, did your gamefly games come in yet?

Nope, it also looks like my GameFly game will come in tomorrow hopefully as well.

If it does that is a pretty good turn around I can definitely live with.

And I forgot to say thank you in that PSP thread for that Mac app you linked to. Looks pretty damn sweet for sure. (Y)

And damn PC_Madness, I take everything back I said about torture. You definitely are going through an insane amount of torture!!! I truly do take it back...

however I do think that is classic though that you said you take it out and push the buttons every day or so. :laugh: (Y) Quote of the month as far as I am concerned.

I have to wait till Monday to get mine :-( It's not toooo bad I guess, I just want to play the FNR3 demo! I ordered mine from samsclub.com. 450 for a premium system, extra wireless controller and a play and charge kit. You basically get the play and charge for free which is nice.

Damn that is real nice. First bundle I have heard of that you actually get something for free honestly.

Enjoy when you get it. (Y)

And has it been confirmed the FNR3 demo is officially out?

I heard rumors it was tonight, but I have not read if it definitely was released for sure. That would be sweeeet.

i got a bundle from costco on dec 10. premium 360 (400), PGR3 (50), extra wireless controller (50), and play and charge kit (20). so that should be $520, yet they were selling it for $478.

that was the first time i've ever bought something at launch and actually paid less than MSRP.

lucky biatch... :laugh: :rofl: :p

that's why you most buy consoles/games from wal-mart and costco and not from game stores like ebgames or gamestop... :p

    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
