Bluejay Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Next week, no date specified. What a n00b! The Hour of Victory demo is up now. Very slow.
DiemetriX Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 I just played some Shadowrun. Was better than I expected. But I don't think it will keep me the same way Halo does. A lot to learn in this game and you must think tactical.
arnold Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Question, When your 360 starts to show up checkered Red squares everytime you play...means that it's Fucked right? ;_; Can't afford a new 360 anytime soon, hell even the repair is 100 quid right?
Guest Jordan Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Wait a sec, Shadowrun is out this week? Crickey.

theguyfromspark Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 The Hour of Victory Demo is awful, the controls are pooey, the graphics are last gen + HD and the tank bit is just plain bad.
Bluejay Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 The Hour of Victory Demo is awful, the controls are pooey, the graphics are last gen + HD and the tank bit is just plain bad. This is all true. It is awful. It plays like the dev was trying to emulate Call of Duty but failing epicly and not really paying attention the source material. It has the CoD weapons but odd looking, the cheesy cut scenes but worse, similar levels but badly designed and everything is shiny. Its a but ugly. All pretty dreadful. Day one purchase confirmed.

Cause a stir with MS, they know there is a design fault. You could easly get a free repair if you cuased shit, hell if mine breaks i ain't paying.
Guest Jordan Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Shadowrun bought... PC version. Cheaper + Mouse = win.
Chuck Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 I got 3 red lights when my 360 had just turned off yesterday. I unpluged my play and charge kit a second after it had switched off, but 3 red flashing lights started. switched it off by the button the on the front of the console. switched it on, watched a vid and played 30 minutes of gears. seems fine.
immy Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Shadowrun bought...PC version. Cheaper + Mouse = win. impressions?
Chuck Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Its confirmed. My 360 is DEAD. Everytime I put it on three red lights turn up... SHIT:nono:
ReZourceman Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 I find the three red lights so weird/funny. Like...did they build that in, on purpose?
Chuck Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 its like they made 3 red lights because they knew it would happen [phones microsoft to tell them to fuck off with there £80]
Guest Stefkov Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Its confirmed. My 360 is DEAD. Everytime I put it on three red lights turn up... SHIT:nono: Try the towel trick?
Nintenchris Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Oh crap.. i was so sure yours would be ok because it was ok after the first 3 red lights. I agree with Stef... try the towel trick, just keep an eye on it.
Chuck Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 'Thank you for calling Microsoft Support [etc] What is your name? ''I have three red lights on my console'' 'To be able to solve your problem I need to be able to use my system, i can't right now, can you call back in an hour?' ''yes'' 'ok thank you very much Rob, HAVE A VERY NICE DAY' Why does everything have to be PC???? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE A NICE DAY WHEN MY FUCKING CONSOLE HAS DIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Bluejay Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HAVE A NICE DAY WHEN MY FUCKING CONSOLE HAS DIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 Go ride a bicycle. Oh crap.. i was so sure yours would be ok because it was ok after the first 3 red lights. I agree with Stef... try the towel trick, just keep an eye on it. What exactly is the towel trick. I had my 360 about a month now so I'll need to try it next week or so.
Chuck Posted May 31, 2007 Posted May 31, 2007 Wrap a towel round it, turn it on. wait for it to overheat = solve hardware problem Some forgein knob just told me that no out of year warrenty console gets repared for free.
