DiemetriX Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I can buy a 360 with a broken DVD tray for 75£.... should i buy it? I'may be able to fix it.. and i may not. In worst case i have to make it into a toploading 360.
Matt Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 If you can fix it - then yeh, I suppose that'd be a good idea. Then you could sell your 360 and make loads of profit. If the worst comes to the worst and you can't fix it, you could take it apart and make a custom shell for your working 360. Paint all the casing and stuff and then stick it on your existing one.
m_fergy Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Nah, no point for PS3 if i got a 360 ... Aye gd point. Im only going to get one if there is some wkd games that you cant get on the 360

So you think it's worth 75£.. I'll probably end up buying it. I realy want to custom paint my 360 I'll try making a nes design in Photoshop

In worst case i have to make it into a toploading 360. You can easy, just replace it with a new standard PC DVD drive. Any PC DVD drive can be used to replace it.

The3rdChildren Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 What a let down, Jord. I may be forced to kill myself... I already did kill myself. I'm posting this message from heaven. Downloads are super fast up here.
Domstercool Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 "The true purpose of this update was to halt the progress of the modding community," Xbox Live director of programming Larry Hryb told Gamasutra. "Their 'demo disk' doesn't work any more."

Owen Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 The March madness is slowly starting to fade people! Moto GP and Tomb Raider look unlikely to make that month, Tomb Raider is set for a April release it seems. Gears of war (which we knew) has now been moved from March, no surprise there! and by far the worst news of all: Elder Scrolls has now got a release date of April 28th 2006, so Gameplay say! It was never given a official date, but March would of been fairer considering they stated early 2006, i don't believe end of april is early 2006! DAMN!
Stocka Posted January 31, 2006 Author Posted January 31, 2006 A few ok looking games in a month isn't exactly madness.
CVD Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Perfect Dark Zero or Dead or Alive 4? Keep in mind I despise games that are too hard and piss me off, whereas I have a bit of leeway (excuse the spelling, we make our own words up in Scotland) for the odd shitty element of shooters.
Ashley Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Apparently DOA4 is short, simple and only really worth a rent. From what I hear anyway.
Guest Jordan Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Apparently DOA4 is short, simple and only really worth a rent. From what I hear anyway. If you want all the costumes, it'll take you about a week tops. It's a great game, I still play DoA3 even though i've finished it aaaages ago. According to Meik, Ridge Racer 6 isn't all it's cracked up to be...
Meik Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Buy both from GAME. Keep the one you prefer, take back the other. Perfect Dark Zero is different depending on who you talk to. I've talked to people that think it's amazing and others that think it's tripe and can't stand it. I fall into the latter camp, but then i'm generally hard to please and have been tainted by Halo 2 online every day for the past year. Dead or Alive is difficult, yes, but I haven't really found myself getting frustrated whilst playing it. It's not a complex, technical fighter so it doesn't take long to get into at all. It's also a lot of fun online with friends. I like it. According to Meik, Ridge Racer 6 isn't all it's cracked up to be... That's just my personal opinion and because I don't really like the whole drift thing. If you like it then go for it.
DiemetriX Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Dead or Alive is difficult, yes, but I haven't really found myself getting frustrated whilst playing it. I got so frustraded I nearly broke the controller :| I should realy go to angermanagment. Games like that and Halo2 online piss me off (when i lose or get killed) I realy love them offcourse... On another note... I was playing FFXI when xbox live suddenly disconected. But i was still able to play whith my party in FFXI... now thats strange.
DiemetriX Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Itagaki (DOA developer) confirms that there still are a few problems with playing the game on Xbox Live, and Team Ninja is working hard to fix the issues. He told the magazine that currently his team is having problems figuring out whether it's Xbox Live or the game itself that's causing the issues. He said the first update is scheduled for mid-February. Aside from bug fixes, it will also feature some minor changes to the game's interface. Itagaki also told Famitsu Xbox 360 that plans to release new outfits for DO4 characters via Xbox Live Marketplace have been put off due to budget and staffing issues. However, Itagaki did say that fans and Team Ninja members had expressed interest in new costumes--and that if such costumes are ever made, they would not be free. After DOAXBV2, Itagaki say he will release an "action game." However, he hinted that the title in question won't be a sequel to Ninja Gaiden, which means it will either be Project Progressive, Dead or Alive Code: Cronus, or another title. He says the keyword for the game will be "interactivity," which will also go for the next Ninja Gaiden. He did not elaborate. Source: Gamespot.
The3rdChildren Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Dead or Alive 4 is just very difficult to me. The entire fighting system is detrimental to my happiness. Countering is quite neat but hard to pull off, and characters have weird names.
