Yeah you should be fine if you have a 100 overdraft oh and if anyones telling you there copy of Bioshock is being sent out from gameplay any earlyer than wednesday... there telling you lies i tell ya

Remember it wont be long before there are Premiums in shops with HDMI! I do agree with Chuck tho... theres no point in buying a Premium when the Elite is only £50 more... and the 120GB hard drive is gonna be necessary if you wanna download stuff from the video market place... when its up and running over here.

Yeah just as long as you have made sure you have changed the settings .. then when you turn your 360 off.. the light on the front will continue to flash so you know its still downloading.

Its taken like an hour for mine to get to 15%!

Well after reading what others have said about this on various sites it seems that its quite a problem for alot of people.. and that is a driver issue not hardware. i found this on ATI's site.... 737-27116: Radeon™ Series - ATIKMDAG has stopped responding error messages The information in this article applies to the following configuration(s): Catalyst Display Driver 7.3 Radeon™ X1950 series Radeon™ X1900 series Radeon™ X1800 series Radeon™ X1650 series Radeon™ X1600 series Radeon™ X1550 series Radeon™ X1300 series Radeon™ X1050 series Radeon™ X850 series Radeon™ X800 series Radeon™ X700 series Radeon™ X600 series Radeon™ X550 series Radeon™ X300 series Radeon™ 9800 series Radeon™ 9700 series Radeon™ 9650 series Radeon™ 9600 series Radeon™ 9550 series Radeon™ 9500 series Windows Vista 32-bit Edition Windows Vista 64-bit Edition Symptoms: When running games or full screen video, some users may be shown a message stating ATIKMDAG has stopped responding but was successfully recovered. In some cases, the system will continue to work as normal. Alternately, this error message may not result in the system being recovered and the system may need to be reset. Solution: Currently there is no solution. ATI Engineering has been advised of this issue and is investigating. Any updates will be published when they become available. So they know about it but they have no fix Oh and some Nvidia's have the same problem but get this error "nvlddmkm stopped responding but has recovered"

I have tryed that Caris and it didnt help Oh and Sanchez you should eat your words because if you look arround the net people are having the same problem with nVidia cards on Vista

I havent had my new PC for long and everything was running fine... untill i decided to buy a game.. Age Of Empires 3 Im running Vista Home Premium and my graphics card is a ATI Radeon X1650 PRO So.. the problem... after playing for a little while.. some times minutes, some times longer the screen freezes or goes blank. seconds after it will come back and give me this error "driver atikmdag stopped responding but has recovered" or somthing similar. This will happen every couple of secons after it happens the first time. Ive looked in the problem reports and it says Description A problem with your video hardware caused Windows to stop working correctly. Problem signature Problem Event Name: LiveKernelEvent OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.768.3 Locale ID: 2057 Files that help describe the problem WD-20070716-1503.dmp sysdata.xml Version.txt Extra information about the problem BCCode: 117 BCP1: 8406D480 BCP2: 8B140A82 BCP3: 00000000 BCP4: 00000000 OS Version: 6_0_6000 Service Pack: 0_0 Product: 768_1 I have the latest drivers for the graphics card and the latest vista updates... but nothing seems to help.. plus ive searched the net and found people with the same problem but no solution. I just hope one of you lot can help me before i reach for a sledge hammer.

5. PS3 - 12,187 | 13,493 | 531,302 | 988,860 So either Sony where telling lies when they said they had broke a million in Japan or those figures are wrong?

GTA IV better on 360 - Rockstar Rockstar has said Xbox 360 gamers will get a better Grand Theft Auto IV experience. It was detailing the differences in the two console versions and refusing to get caught up in the crossfire, when it accidentally let slip its preference. "They're identical games. We're not hardware makers, and we're not like a pawn between these companies, we try not to be as much as we can. We make great games for people to enjoy on whichever system they want," spokesperson Hosi Simon told Games Radar. "But I guess if you want the complete experience with the episodes, then yeah, you should buy the 360, I suppose." Whoops. He was referring to two episodes that will build on the GTA IV experience exclusively on Xbox 360 - the same ones MS reportedly paid USD 50 million for. The first of these is expected to be available around March 2008. Grand Theft Auto IV is due for release on PS3 and Xbox 360 on 19th October http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=80401

Exactly the same thing that happend with the DS... and it will happen again.

I would love to know what the PS3 has sold.. but im sure Sony would be to emmbarrsed to release SALES figures If Nintendo continue pulling in the ammount of people they have been with Wii.. then they will be unstoppable mainly because 3rd partys will have no choice but to make games for Wii because thats where the money is. Also i just realised that we havent had the big hitters yet either! other than Zelda Sales should explode when Galaxy/Metroid/Smash bros/Mario Kart hit

Whoops sorry.. im sure we will play sometime tonight and if your on i will invite ya!

Me and you are gonna race it out tomorow... im a little rusty but you will still be owned!

Mine has been on since launch.. and i have no problems.

Has anyone tryed the Flatout demo yet? hmmm i thinks i might download it.

No .

Jim... this is from Linkified/Zeldafreak, you have to sing it to the Goldfinger tune. Jimcheatus hes the man, the man with the golden code. He can shoot you in gears, 5 miles away, with a basic shotgun. Jimcheatus hes the man, the man with the golden code. He can strike you down at spawn, using the hammer of dawn,and you can feel a chill, its Jim-cheatus Stef... ive tryed that glitch on Tony hawks before and couldnt do it, i must be doing something wrong.

Yeah.. it was like everyone but Linkified said that they would get it... or already have it. But after Gears on messenger, Linkified said to me that he would indeed buy Vegas

Ive orderd Rainbow 6 Vegas from play.com, but i bet it dont get here till like next friday... damm you Royal mail you lazy gits.

Personaly this "game" isnt for me BUT i would like to say that i know for a fact that the very moment it is released it will be on all the usual TV programs and maybe even the news just because "it will help you get fit".. and sales will be very high because of this. So yeah this isnt aimed at regular gamers.. so i dont wanna hear any of that "what the hell is this" crap, if you dont like it.. no one said you had to buy it

Awesome... just awesome This game alone should justify owning a Wii. I love the way someone else can pick up a second controler and give you a hand!

3%........ Its gonna take forever... i hope its worth it!

I still cant figure that one out... ive never played a game with him/her i know that for sure. see you lot at 4!

Yeah ive said it a thousand times before.. it wouldnt make sense to release such a high budget game onto a console that has the smallest install base when theres another much larger install base on another console. MGS4 will come to the 360.. theres no doubt about it.

I fixed that for you Jim... you just feel bad that she turned you down when you asked for a threesome Hmm Live is being evil... its still not letting some people join other peoples games
