shadowmatt Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 One of the reasons I bought the XBOX 360 was for GOW another was judging from the previous xbox releases the UK always did well, where as $ony delayed PS2 game launches in the UK, the PSP is a joke, I had to get mine from Japan and still not really that many good games, maybe apart from GTA. Delaying GOW in the UK / Europe will only push people to pirate games, after months and months of build up, internet advertising showing the US launch date, an extra 2 weeks (ish) is a slap in the face for none US owners. That and the fact the trailer was gold membership only to start with. How the f**k does that work, I have to pay to see an advertisement for a product I may want to buy, or for a demo? That completely the wrong way round, hows about they pay to advertise their products on the chance I will be impressed and buy the product. Also my 360 is in for repair right now as the DVD drive was going. They wont send a custom box to ship it in (microsoft take note of apple here) they say dont ship in original box, but the box has to be suitable or will invalidate the warranty. Include hard drive, even though it wasnt the cause of the problem. We will probably wipe the drive so back it up. Cant really back it up though. This is not great service, and looking at the 3 month warenty they give the Americans, its the least they can do legally. Apple on the other hand, arrange a collection, with a custom box, security tags etc. Have a very fast turn around, have a decent tech support, online repair tracking, and will even compensate you if you push it a little. I got ?70 off an ipod video. In the end I shipped the 360 in a box apple sent me a while ago for my laptop, it fitted well and I thought was kind of ironic!

Voyn1x Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Strange, i also phoned up with my dvd drive going (wasn't ejecting properly). They told me to remove the hard drive and arranged a collection with DHL and sent a custom box, with stickers to seal the box etc. Had a very fast turn around in 4 days, actually received a brand new console with another hard drive attached! (sold that now! :laugh: ) And i'm from the UK too!!

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted November 8, 2006 Veteran Share Posted November 8, 2006 who cares :) No Warez (links) & Cracks.Help, requests or posts that discuss circumvention. This includes linking to illegally obtained software, movies & music files - posting about it, and suggesting to get it. https://www.neowin.net/?act=rulesforum Since you technically did not post that screenshot and someone else did from your website, I am letting you slide without a warning, but someone does care, so no more talk about it, especially admitting it.

shadowmatt Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Thats really strange! I dont know if that was costing them too much then and they decided to cut back or if it depends on which call centre you get through to. I even had to download and print off the DHL sticker for the box. The guy did sound American but that means nothing will all the tricks the call centres employ. What came across was the reluctance to service the machine, and the obstacles, however small they were putting up to put me off. Like we will probalb wipe you hd, a badly fitting box could invalidate the warranty etc... Rather than what I have experienced from other companies with similar items, where you have to use their box, they organise the collection etc... As long as it works when it comes back I will be happy though, its a great machine, xbox live is fantastic, HD is awsome and the price it just right. I was never a microsoft fan, releasing buggy products, taking ages to fix problems etc... (my old windows phone was forever crashing) but the 360 is so polished, everything just works, like the ipod connectivity, the demos, the trailers reminds me a bit of Apple.

I got ?70 off an ipod video. In the end I shipped the 360 in a box apple sent me a while ago for my laptop, it fitted well and I thought was kind of ironic! I am still waiting for my pre-paid label to send the console back again! so far it has been a week and no email. I phoned earlier and they said my repair request was cancelled due to invalid something or other. So i thought that was nice that they told me. They have a quick turn around when they have the console but getting it sent off is a nightmare. I don't like relying on them to send off my console., i would rather send it myself and pay the postage. I really want a complaints email address so i can complain about this service because it is terrible (even worse than PlusNet). I said today on the phone i wanted the console back by next week as Gears of War is out then. If i don't get my console back by next thursday i will sell all my 360 games and accessories and never touch their console products again. It isn't like it is my fault it is broke... it was their well tested update that caused the console to break. Also i was told today i am not to send the Hard Drive back even though the last time i had too... i was told i would get my hard drive back which never happened.
