went and got it.

Its good, and to include the four buzzers, with batteries all for £30 notes represents fair decent value imo! the buzzers are real quality too.

The down side with these inteactive games is they are all multiple choice, meaning folk can buzz in first and have a few seconds to work out the right answer. all good fun though!

Just hoping they will release other versions than just the movie quiz, maybe even make new questions available for download from marketplace?

Scene it is fun but some of the voiceover stuff gets irritating really fast, lucky you can skip it

Is there a gamertag list anywhere on the forum?

Would be nice to get a 5 man team on Fifa 08 in the "Be a Pro online" mode as Bolton with people who actually love the team

instead of forcing mates to play as Anelka (well...he's still in the squad on the game obviously) or Nolan!

COD4 arrived, played the training mission and the one on the boat, all happened a bit fast on that boat.

Resisting to play it though in favour of some Monetary Economics essay plans. This is what I get for not working eh.

overheatxors ? put it and its psu on a flat non carpet non fluffy surface..

or its the shit ROHS solder on summert 'giving up' ..

oh and if you have it on a "Surge Protected" mains 4 plug thing , swap it and use a normal one , i heard microsoft ask this question when they get a busted one and that in 70% of answers its yes.. so Bills crew have either used summert in xboxes that unexpecidly 'hates' them , or theys just lying to kick away some of the flack theyve been getting .

if i translated that correctly

and its not using a "surge protected" mains adapter .. its either plugged direct into the mains sockets or on a "Normal" mains adapter , coz bill reckons that Not using a surge protected one is best ..

if yes, it'll be the shit solder, its suposed to crack easier than the old "burns down rainforests" type .. dont know what all these vans and boats driving in and out of china with knack'd gear on them does to the rainforests but i'll bet its worse ..

it'll either go away (possibly when they do a firmware update) or break proper or it'll be reet had loads o stuff on its 'last legs' lasting years ..

hmmm, well just plugged into't wall, nothing special.

Batman · Post by **Batman** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 2:50 pm

Uh oh, 3 red rings.

has anyone had to send their xbox back?

how do you go about it ?

Athers · Post by **Athers** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 2:53 pm

Serves you right for dissing chess.

They'll send you an email with a UPS label. Print it off, stick your xbox in a random cardboard box (without disc in and without HDD) and stick the label on. Ring up UPS and arrange a collection or take it to their local centre wherever that is.

Mine took 2 weeks to arrive back, you can check their repair progress on that link.

Good luck.

Probably that kebab last night!

Bought Guitar Hero III today. Must say it is a quality laugh with you mates...spent the past hour trying to perfect 'My name is Jonas' by Weezer to no avail.
