Posted July 19, 2006 Where would I buya router and are they easy to set up? Try Pc world or Argos! Setting up a router takes less than 10 mins and once it's set up, It makes life so much better. I highly recommend getting either a Linksys or Netgear router! As for having your 360 hooked up to the net in my eye's it's a must. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 19, 2006 Problems for some ISPs and Live currently. Found this on Major Nelsons blog that 'Circ' had posted: "Hey guys was on the phone to M$ Xbox Live support: Here's a post I posted on another forum about what I was tald: Right if anyone who is on these ISP's read: NTL BT Wanadoo Virgin The guy I was talking to :p told me that they know of the problem and have found out that it's the ISP's above that are having problems getting onto Xbox Live. Neither of them are sure what the problem is and are apparently trying to solve the problem now, but he gave me a reference number and if the problem persists by tomorrow I was told to ring back. So if you can't connect now or sometime tonight and are on those ISP's, at least you have some confirmation that it's not your problem e.g. router etc." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 19, 2006 I got Oblivion yesterday. It's amazing! The begining fly-over of the city with the great music is especially "wow" making... Who found the little goblin things in the castle in the town that begins with a K (soz, can't remember the exact name) annoying? It took me like 25 trys to get though the castle to the Count. Eventualy I just ran for it, giving anything that got in my way a good smack with my claymore... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 20, 2006 Yes, I know I got Oblivion 2 days ago, but do you think I should get GR:AW (£22 off ebay-I've finished PDZ and I don't think it's that good outside of co-op mode) and another play and charge kit (£12.99 off play.com)? Is GR:AW any good without the expantion pack? I've played the co-op elimination with a couple of mates (neither of whom play games really at all) in the demo to death over the last couple of days-our record for no deaths on 40 enemies is 2:10.:awesome::awesome::awesome: I'm also want another rechargable battery for my 3rd controller, but with a second play and charge kit, I don't know whether to get another one, a fast charge kit, or just a battery. If you are wandering where I'm going to get the cash from, I got £100 for my birthday from my granny (it was very much appreciated), as well as £20 in cheques from other relatives, and I should get some from friends 'cause I still haven't had my BBQ with 'em yet. On every day until late next week, at least 4 people are on holiday/stupid school band tours... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 20, 2006 I'm buying GR:AW for £20, and probably play and charge kit and a fast charge kit. If the latter two ideas are bad, gimmie a shout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 21, 2006 Heads up:Alien Hominid is coming to the arcade, Q1 2007. As is their new game Castle Crashers which looks like a cartoony version of Guardian Heroes which can only be a good thing.

GR:AW for 20 seems a bargain, i had the game but i swapped it for BFME 2, i just wasnt enjoying it dont know about that quick play kit, but since you have like 3 controllers it may be handy to have for multiplayer marathons.

Just jk do what ya want, I just play games caus I like them not for the points, I wouldnt be arsed if I didnt get another point but others love them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 22, 2006 ITS TRUE ITS TRUE I AM A POINTS WHORE *Falls to knees and cries* Seriously though it is a weird addiction. I will still and play very bad games ( looks at need for speed and fifa ) just for some points. I think its due to the drought on the Nintendo machines. There is nothing else to play at the moment and I need my gaming so this is how I spend my time. My points will freeze dramatically when Zelda Tp and the Wii arrives.
