XBOX LIVE
 
Hey guys we need to have a xbox live privite SECCS rallysport2 night :D
After you guys left my and zack had a ice race marathone on xbox live and just killed it with the 318 and the 306 :twisted:
Great fun :!: Matt is the ice and snow master :D He is next to get xbox :twisted: Also I think tyson and Scott turned into xbox junkies :twisted:

tysonK 2004-05-23 10:12 PM

OHS NOS.

can I trade my PS2 and games for an XBOX.

sperry 2004-05-24 07:55 AM

I wouldn't have ever gotten an XBox if it wasn't for the recent price drop to $150 and the fact that Rally Sport Challenge 2 RULES! :)

Dean 2004-05-24 09:14 AM

So did Scott do his alignment, or did you all just play X-Box all day?

I changed the oil and bled the brakes. The F1 race replay actually took more time away from the alignment than the XBOX. :twisted:

(BTW: Monaco was AWESOME! Best F1 race I've seen in years!)

WRXRallyBlue 2004-05-24 09:28 AM

Ooh, I'm up for some RSC2 :D I can bring an xbox, 4 controllers, and rallysport 1, but I've got no live connection..

oooouuuuccchhh!
 
Scott I forgot to cancell Xbox live 2 month demo!
They (microshits) charged my credit card $59.99 49.99 for 1 year of xbox live and 9.99 for a xbox live magazine dont for get to cancel or not just a reminder :shock: :evil:

MattR 2004-07-20 02:48 PM

Hahahah! That sucks, better get your money's worth out of it. I didn;t realize it was that expensive, they've gotta be making a killing off XBOX Live.

qksubi 2004-07-20 02:56 PM

Quit talking shit I figure you owe me about 7.5 hrs youll get a bill :lol: :twisted:
Just kiddin :!:
I know that is way to much for a on line service :!:
My porn chat membership isnt that much I mean my friends membership isnt that much :twisted:

Kevin M 2004-07-20 03:07 PM

$50 for a year isn't that bad really. If you use the service for 5 hours a week, that comes out to like $.20 an hour. Seems worth it to me, although charging you for the magazine is pretty screwy.

sperry 2004-07-20 03:57 PM

Yeah, I'm not stressing it $50 for a year isn't too bad... playing RSC2 online is a blast, even if I only do it once a week or so.

:lol: I already have that game... what are the 7 others? :twisted:

Also, what's the deal w/ the headset? Do they send you one?

BTW: I was on Live! last night from 11:30 to mignight (give or take). I tried to invite you to my game a few times, but it just said you were "idle".

qksubi 2004-07-29 03:26 PM

I think I feel a sleep waiting for games to open up :lol:
I woke up around 130 and went to bed.
I dont remember call they will tell you we got our game today and I called to cancel about week ago :shock:

I think you have to buy one, unless you bought the starter pack deal. They are $20-$30 IIRC.

qksubi 2004-07-29 03:44 PM

NO free head today!
 
I called them the said no free head set anymore that was a prmo they during christmas it ended in jan. :x

So, lemme get this straight... their "free trial" gives me a 2 month trial period, then I get charged $50 for a year of service, and have to pay $25 for a headset.

Whereas the "starter kit" costs $65, and comes with a year of service and and a headset.

i.e. the "free trial" actually costs me $10. :x

Nick Koan 2004-07-29 03:49 PM

so, who said Microsoft was evil?

also, did you get 2 months free + 1 year, or was it just 2 months free + the rest of a year contract BS?

either way, some shady marketing.

qksubi 2004-07-29 03:50 PM

The word FREE is a joke! I think webster needs to change that defintion :!:

Good question.. I just assumed that I got 2 months to cancel w/o paying, but my account date started the day I signed up. So it's that BS.

I assumed I was getting a headset once I started paying, which made the deal useful. :x

JonnydaJibba 2006-09-05 09:07 AM

Back from the dead! I'd rather resurrect old threads than start new ones...unless people decide that they don't want to read these...

But anway, anyone playing Battlefield 2* or PGR3 for the 360box?






*and if you have BF2 for the PC I envy you because it is WAY better that the 360boxes.

sperry 2006-09-05 10:28 AM

Wait... people bought the XBox360? ...and there are games on it!? When did this happen?

JonnydaJibba 2006-09-05 10:37 AM

I had it bought for me, if that makes a difference. I think now that people have almost forgotten about their launch disaster they might consider getting one over the other alternatives.

As for the games... I think there are like 20 total, and only 3 or 4 are worth buying, a couple few worth renting. Just not much to choose from yet. Which is dumb because it's been out for a while.

Rumor has it the 360's price is going to drop to like $299 soon, which makes it almost tollerable to purchase... assuming some friggen games ever come out.

Nick Koan 2006-09-05 11:46 AM

There are some pretty cool looking games on the horizon. There are a few good games that are actually getting pretty good reviews on their own merit (instead of the "its pretty good for right now" metric). Dead Rising and Chromehounds are the two I hear about a lot, and a lot of people consider them almost good enough to buy the system for, but I'm not entirely convinced just yet.

JonnydaJibba 2006-09-05 11:49 AM

Dead Rising is fun, and pretty. I've heard from friends that Chromehounds is only worth a rental. But I have yet to decide for myself.

Nick Koan 2006-09-05 11:51 AM

Yeah, I dunno. I'm just going off of internet buzz since I haven't bought a 360 yet. Chromehounds is supposed to be good if you like to get into the online play and do the whole clan thing. Otherwise, I've heard the single player is pretty short.

JonnydaJibba 2006-09-05 11:54 AM

I read a few reviews on it. The one thing they all mentioned was that it was slow in between playing. Like load times and such. They also said that this game will appeal to people who like customizable stuffs because there is A LOT you can do to your robit. I'll prob rent it this weekend or something and let you know what my thoughts are.

Chromehounds is alright. Think I may buy it. Got a chance to play it on an HD at Best Buy and damn my tv sucks!
