theguyfromspark Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 I got Assassins Creed TWICE for Christmas, so I was going to take one back to Game where it was bought to get it changed for something else but they've but Assassins Creed on sale for 30 quid so they'll only give me 30 quid towards something else which is a bit shit. Anyone have any ideas what I can do to get full price? It's a gift so I have no receipt.
ReZourceman Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 You can try taking it back to other stores. WHSmith are good with no receipts. Anyway, I just had one of the most fucking awesome matches on Halo. Twas a team slayer. My opening was made of awesome. On Construct, I walk towards the big shooty up thing - a guy walks past me - he gets assassinated. Then I see on the radar theres 3 of them. Im gonna get mullered. I switch to sticky grenades, soon as I get up lay em both out slightly apart, I get shot to death then the grenades go off for a triple kill. I then went on to get Killing Frenzy and Slice N Dice. Oh my god. Ill upload a clip of it/the beginning and such. Or possibly film it and put it on YT.
khilafah Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 guys can I use this instead of getting the 360 wireless adaptor. I have wireless connection in my house but just not got the Microsoft adaptor. http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Product_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1115416826619&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper

They can't afford to loose custom to the competition so they always bend over backwards, or at least thats Sainsbury's policy

I'm not sure how the over supermarkets work but with ASDA i defo know they normally give u the value on a gift card with no reciept.

Roostophe Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Got Assassin's Creed and WWE SvR08 yesterday, as birthday presents for my brother. Haven't played Assassin's Creed yet, as I've spent ages creating my own custom character on SvR... (Heh, I'll also create a Diva soon )

Fresh Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Just updated my 360 to do 1080p. Now all I have to do is wait for my new monitor.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Gaaaaaaaaaaah. I have to do 2 levels again on Eternal Sonata, in the Mysterious Unison because all my Characters died... Two freaking levels. That's a lot of time
Charlie Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Is Live not working properly at the moment or something?
martinist Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 I couldn't get onto live either, i wonder if that was why everyone was leaving the halo 3 games. Should be back up tomorrow night.
Twozzok Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Live is working, I think it might be the rush of people downloading 300 for 100MS points in HD. Or y'know, just live being shit.
Daft Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Live is working, I think it might be the rush of people downloading 300 for 100MS points in HD. Or y'know, just live being shit. Thanks for reminding me!! Downloading now! Does anyone know when the video store is going to be updated because the current selection of movies...sucks and I haven't really heard about any release schedules!?
S.C.G Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 I was gonna download 300 then I saw that it was only that standard 480P variant that was 100 points and they promised it would be the HD version when they advertised it? I didn't bother as my brother has just picked it up on standard DVD so I can watch that any time and slightly upscaled too on the 360 most likely. But for anyone who just wants to watch it once I guess it was a good deal.
ReZourceman Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Ive decided the HD DVD up scaleness is actually, not only not just bullshit, but actually fucking awesome. Ive got a Balls DVD, and on the menu screen its got like text and the logo and shit, and on my TV/HD DVD it looks so fucking crisp its ridiculous. I mean it really is fucking pretty much 100% quality, then when I watched it yesterday on a Sd normal dvd player it totally looked a lot worse. I was quite in shock.

Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 I'm downloading the HD version, 100 points here too.
Wesley Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 I give in. I'm going to go buy a Wireless Adapter. After hours of port forwarding with my BT HomeHub, Mac, adding in a Netgear router between the two and trying to get the mother-fucker to relay I give up. Shitty, shit, shitter. I hate Microsoft and their bullshit sometimes.
Nintenchris Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 I'm downloading the HD version, 100 points here too. Me too and its downloading alot quicker than i expected

But for anyone who just wants to watch it once I guess it was a good deal. Yeah as others have said it is the HD version. They fucked up at first and put the SD version at 100. Then it took them over 18 hours to sort out a price change, which is slightly rediculous.They also said they'd be starting it on the 29th to make up for it but who knows. EDIT: Can someone explain what kind of license you get when renting a movie from the video store? I want to know if I just watch the begining to see the quality it won't delete it when I stop it.
Guest Jordan Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Balls. Live is fucking up again, i can't download 300. I got to 57% after 4 hours and then it died. Fantastic. Now i have to get the whole thing again.
Twozzok Posted December 29, 2007 Posted December 29, 2007 Does it say 'Ready To Play', or has it just stopped working? Mine said Ready To Play but it was just buffering and i was still getting like 200kb/s for it which i thought was AWesomeomeomeomeomeome.
