That Guy

Ordered Soul Calibur 3, Gran Turismo 4, Okami, and Lumines Plus. Was going to get FFXII but with Okami and already playing Zelda I thought it'd be too much.

I did it! I FINALLY own a Playstation 2. Now just to buy a couple of games. I'm only going to get 2-3 for now, I'm thinking Okami, and maybe Gran Turismo 4. Not sure what else.

Well, I mostly don't like the wolf sections. Temples are really good. Some Hyrule field exploring is annoying too. I loved Wind Waker but this and Ocarina... not so much.

Last August. Annoyingly enough just last week while watching Watchdog I was saying I must be lucky, my 360 has been fine since I had it. Rookie mistake.

My Dad's going to pick me one up tomorrow. For £50 you have don't you?

Is every company on earth totally fucking useless?

I want to play Ratchet and Clank, and Okami, and GT4 and God of War. Maybe I should. Damn you games!!!!!

Phone them up and ask them about getting your game replaced and getting a replacement console, or you could take it back to where you got it from. They might replace both the game and console.

I can't decide :'(

Same thing I'm thinking, but then again I don't have time to play the games I own right now let alone buying another console. Not sure.

Jesus, how'd that happen?! Has it left a ring around the edge of the disc?

This is actually what I did, I started, really loved up until 7 hours, then was bored for 3 hours then thought it was decent for 2 hours, now I'm bored. Now my 360 is fecked though I'm going to play this and Red Steel a lot more.

Annoyingly, my 360 crashed while i was on Burnout, and more annoyingly I'd crashed myself in it, so when the thing froze I as there with the 360 mocking me with 'CRASHED' in big letters on the screen. Bastard. *Switches on Wii*

OMG SERIOUSLY?! I might have to get one. £50?! Is this a 'while stocks last' thing? Am I likely to get there at 7pm and not be able to get one?

Gamespot gave it 8.1 saying that it's not that accessable, but is a fantastic fighting game. Looks far better than DOA anyway.

I'm going t wait until the 360 crashes again, so I can watch the films and have a bit of a play of Crackdown. Need to find a box somewhere anyway.

Still haven't received this email though. Shouldn't they send it right away?

Unlikely, it has happened a couple of times this week. I'm mostly annoyed because Crackdown is coming tomorrow, and I've got 2 HD DVDs to watch as well and I don't fancy waiting 3 weeks for them. Not to mention this is my week off work...

Was that the first, second or third time? The bloke couldn't even understand my name. He thought my surname was Hinson, FFS. I've just switched it on and it worked... Put PGR3 in, worked fine, played a few races, no crashing, popped the guide screen up a few times during loading, again no problems. Still no email from that Microsoft support guy though.Clearly clueless. I'm gonna continue to test it while I wait and if it happens again then I'll phone again and complain at the lack of service. With no red lights could it just be a case of over heating? I know I'm clinging to basically no hope, but I can't understand how I'm having problems with no red lights.

I'm in the twilight bit after the goron mines. I don't hate the game, but there are a lot of bits that really get on my nerves. I'm at that bit where you're controlling that weird bird thing which I hate. There are a few too many bits here I'm just glad it's over rather than enjoying the experience.

I'm so fucked off. 360 crashed yet again, this time while playing DOA. If I don't like Crackdown then I'm going to send the bag of shit off to get replaced. I thought it was too good to be true that I had something from Microsoft that actually worked... Absolute shit. Crashed playing Burnout. Then I switched it off and then on again and it crashed within 2 seconds. Should have just stuck with Nintendo. LMAO, totally gone now, every time I switch it on it crashes on the 360 logo. Took the hard drive off and it still happens. Unplugged everything, still happens. Still no red lights though. Phoned Microsoft and after 20 minutes on hold, I got through to someone who I could barely understand, who just went through a list of things to do before he'd let me just send off the console. Clearing system cache and removing the hard drive didn't work (I'd done both already) and then he told me I have to find a box (FIND not get given...), and print off a label and phone a currier. 15 working days until I get it back. Great.

I can't get into this game. I feel like if this wasn't Zelda, there's no way I'd even bother with it. My game time so far is about 13 hours and I really have to force myself to play it. Has anyone else felt like it was a bit dull at first? Does it get better? Or is it just me not liking the game?

I know what you mean about the whole time thing. I'm trying to cut down on the number of games I buy to get more out of the ones I own. Having 2 systems and a DS is hard to fit everything in. I used to like the days of just having my Gamecube and a small pile of games, and I would like to get back to that, unfortunately I like the 360 too much and can't give up the Nintendo games.

Yay, Crackdowns being picked and sent out today. Can't wait until tomorrow. HD DVD looks really good so far. Maybe a little slow in starting the disc, and bringing up menus, and when you try to skip through a film its slightly sluggish, but the picture is fantastic. Not worth £1000 but for £130 it was well worth it.

Yes, I had to wait ages for mine, took 2 months to arrive. I asked for Red Steel, but I cancelled my pre order for my Wii and had just assumed I wasn't getting the free game, but it turned up Monday, which was a nice surprise. Have you contacted Gameplay?
