It was picked up from me on the 22nd of January. That's why I'm confused, it has no reason to be returned to me yet. I'm just not sure if it's being 'returned' to me or the repair centre.

Posted

Well if it's being returned to Frankfurt, which by the looks of it it is, then it's going back to the repair centre which is why I'm confused as to why it'd be sent to Nurnberg when the repair centre is in Frankfurt. Doesn't really make sense. ::shrug:

Don't worry about it, I remember seeing plent of silly things come up on my UPS tracking list. The only time it matters is when it says it's back in England, until then checking and worrying about it isn't going to make it come any quicker.

It doesn't say it's being returned to frankfurt - it's in frankfurt when the status is "return to sender", then the next location (posited above that entry on the list) is a "departing scan" as the package leaves Frankfurt, then there's an "arrival scan" as it gets to Nurnberg. Perhaps that's where the xboxes go after they've been serviced in order to be transported back to you via plane/truck/carrier pigeon.

Bought Rockband 2 last night, lent Rockband 1 off me mate, how do i steal his songs? Is ther something i hav to buy or what?

 

Still not sure which i prefer out the 2, Guitar Hero's customisation batters rockband by far, and apart from that they seem pretty the same, though i havent ventured into the online section yet, Still id recommend both to anyone :)

Just bought myself a 360 :)

 

I was looking into the back catalogue of games and you can get some very cheap second hand ones off eBay. So I bought Perfect Dark Zero and Call of Duty 2.

 

Do many people still play these games on Xbox Live much anymore?

Posted

Doh, PDZ...supposedly one of the worst games the 360 has to offer, heh. It might be a cliche but Halo 3 is cheap these days and is obviously played by thousands daily.

Posted

Several hundreds of thousands. Although it takes awhile to get a party, especially playing squad battles, there are still on average about 200,000 people playing Halo 3 every night. Which is good because it's not bad online. Haven't played it since before xmas so might have a go further in the week although I'll probably play TF2. MEDIC!

Good lord, Perfect Dark Zero was an awful game... I hated it on release.

Posted

If you play PDZ on Agent (easy) it's a fun mindless shooter. However, don't ever try to be stealthy (the game will tell you to do so on most levels). It never works.

Posted

:D sweet, I played that demo when you could get it on a disk, but that seemed to get blocked pretty quick. Looking forward to another run through.

 

remember, if you decide to chat about it, go to the right thread plz ;)

PDZ isn't bad... >.> bad is something like Legendary :P

 

QFT!

 

Perfect Dark Zero: - basically it's like this...

 

Crap Storyline

Annoying Objectives

 

those are the cons...

 

Classic Gameplay - not the same kind of classic as the original but it's still a Rare game and it shows

Online Multiplayer - from day one this was here I believe? so Cod 2 was there also but for anyone wanting a decent alternative who wasn't too fussed about COD (like me) it was a fun experience

 

It's far from terrible, but now it looks pretty dated due to being delayed for so long and eventually released in this current gen, doesn't mean that it's not still fun to play every now and then though. :heh:

I just pur-chased meself a copy of Condemned for £8 2nd hand from gamestation - I reckon it'll be worth that price. Still got Kane and Lynch to play through, too.

 

I have a discerning habit of picking up the middling games; dead rising, prey, the darkness; mostly because shorty buys the top quality ones.

Posted

Can't wait to play Halo and Gears online :)

 

So the general opinion is that PDZ is quite a mediocre game? Oh well, it was only £3.99.

 

Any other of the older titles I should be looking out for, I have been going through the older reviews on IGN and it seems nothing really touches Halo and Gears for the Multiplayer.

 

Fable 2 looks good as well, might get that.

 

Oh, and all the XBLA games, Castle Crashers and Braid are popular.

Posted

I personally preferred Mass Effect to Fable 2, which promised oh so much freedom but really felt like a previous-gen game when it boiled down to it.

 

Braid is one of those games where I am jealous of the newcomers as they get to experience the mechanisms and plot for the first time. Grr!

Posted

I can't think of any other game that was quite as disappointing as PDZ. I demand that Rare go back and produce the sequel that we all know they're capable of.

Mmm, maybe one day, at least PDZ was only a prequel though but hell yeah I'd love a sequel done properly, maybe on Xbox 720 eh? should give 'em enough time. :heh:

 

*Edit*

 

Resi 5 demo download complete! just recalibrated my audio setup too, gonna try this beast out. :heh:
