I didn't get in the first 2 waves, so I'm really not holding my breath for this one. They say the 3rd time's the charm, but I guess we'll see. I really want to get it too :(

I am with you :cry:

True it is only a few days away. But for those who get in, we are just that closer to creating our avatar, install games, and start enjoying it without worrying the major server lag come the 19th. You know how much that load will be? thats the only reason i signed up early, that and install hd. thats it.

Or i would of waited.

Well it looks like i didn't get in, which is surprising. I figured this time they would add everyone who signed up, but i guess not. Oh well, i've got too many new games to waste time on the dash anyway.

No, they had to let all the Silver members who signed up into the Preview program first, so the rest of us Gold members can get stuck in the server clog come the 19th.

^ bro your wrong. They accepted both Silver and Gold. Im gold I got accepted. Many of the people that come into gamestop are gold and a few of my friends are. Only 2 out of all these people got accepted the first two times around. My friends that are silver, only 1 got accepted. But cant enjoy it becuase what is he gonna do? No gold ='s no multiplayer. So he just has the dash.

So, both got accepted, just different internet speeds, etc etc is what they looked at.

I'm on NXE already though (unofficially), I really really hope it lets me update :laugh:

Would be good timing (although 10pm is fairly late), as I'm having friends over tonight to play GHWT, and I really wanted to get online to check DLC.

Do you think it will be strict to the times it lists?

    • Phone Dilemma

      By Mindovermaster · Posted

      My current phone, on left, is starting to go to sleep, and not turning on, even though I press the power button 100 times. Like CPR.   I tried factory resetting it, and nothing changed. So it's the hardware failing. I currently am using Twigby as my service provider. Cheapest I can get around here. But all their phones are carp.. https://www.twigby.com/shop/twigby-phones A friend warned me about the Moto G, as his neice has one, and isn't that good at $130. Also the Samsung A15 is laughable at best. Everything else is expensive af. I want android, (hate iOS) any version, that works with Twigby, under $100, please. Refurbished/Used is OK with me, as long as it isn't beat up.   If you know the IMEI number, you can see if it works with Twigby: https://www.twigby.com/page/byod
