Posted December 16, 2007 Anyone remember that guy who made his 360 into a laptop? That was an awesome mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 16, 2007 Oh dear. My 360 is making grinding noises every now and then, as if it's destroying the discs; just got a disc read error on halo and it sounds like it's sparking inside as well. Great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 16, 2007 My drive makes a racket at times too, I'm hoping that a future dashboard update will allow games to be played using the HD DVD drive so I don't have to use the in built one at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 16, 2007 It appears that there's an international conspiracy by Microsoft to near-simultaneously destroy the inner components of the world's supply of Xbox 360 consoles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 16, 2007 The 360 Hardware makes me so angry, even if they totaly fix the RROD. The motor in the DVD drive spins so fast it wont last more than a couple of years... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 16, 2007 God CoD4 is so bull shit. On that sniping level with the ferris wheel, i'm doing the cheating thing. But theres only 1 checkpoint at 5200m. Thats means i have to sit there for the rest of it, then die straight after because theres always AI right behind me. Its so fucking bull shit, i got so close once but the chopper took off i almost broke my own face. Several times. Seriously, why do i put myself through this just for a achievement points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 16, 2007 I've just finished watching Zodiac downloaded from the marketplace, my thoughts: If you watching the video while downloading it at the same time, the video skips for a fraction of a second every so often as it writes to the disk HD quality is nowhere near that of a HD DVD, seemed to be somewhere between DVD and HD to me No 5.1 audio, all the sound came through the front speakers No subtitles Download speed was ok, but no where near streaming level so requires some forethought into when you'll want to watch the movie, so hardly an "on demand" service All in all I'm a little disappointed. I doubt I'll download any other movies from the service unless there's a very good reason. Would defo prefer TV shows on there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 16, 2007 I decided to go back on Naruto. That game is so full of glitches and flaws and just plaing annoying stuff. I need to complete 1 more race then I'm gonna start again so I can get one of the peoples missions directions because it's not guiding me when I chose it on my options.

Its so fucking bull shit, i got so close once but the chopper took off i almost broke my own face. Several times. Seriously, why do i put myself through this just for a achievement points When I played through that level I was carrying the bloke, got right outside the chopper and then got shot 1 too many times. That was only on normal though as I'm rubbish. Played some of the multiplayer earlier which was a bit daunting at first but got into a bit. Did fairly well in 1 or 2 games, crap in some others. Up to rank 4 anyway, and it wasn't quite the nightmare I'd heard starting out on that game was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 17, 2007 It costs £60 to get your 360 fixed after the one year warranty which I just found out after my console stopped displaying video. Hopefully the next console they send me will last for years now, or I will not be pleased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
