Nerd_Annhilator Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I quit my job. Thats a good thing, but now I make no money. It was **** pay anyway.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I still don't have a job. It sucks. I'm broke.
BongoBob Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 WOOHOO JOBLESS PEOPLES! Aww, I made myself feel bad ;_;
Mike Windu Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 I have to deal with the aftermath of a "night out" today, and I have 20 5 inch x 4 inch paintings to finish by Monday... XD lulzcollegelyfe
BongoBob Posted September 15, 2007 Posted September 15, 2007 Well, I just found out that because my Xbox Live account was created while I was under 18, my account is still considered a "child account," meaning I can't use the messenger on the 360 until Microsoft fixes this error. What a bunch of bull****. I get screwed for being honest about my age.

It's a bitch to type and it times out all the time.
jebbers Posted September 15, 2007 Author Posted September 15, 2007 I got back my 360 in the mail. Plugged it all in. Reset the settings back to how they were. Plug in the steering wheel and put in Test Drive Unlimited. I get into a race and play for only 10 minutes. Then the screen goes blank and the sounds get stuck in a loop. I figure its because of the new wheel. So my brother tries Bioshock. Same thing. Do the dance with Microsoft customer service and they sent out a carboard coffin for it. And now it's back to the waiting game. Only got to play games for 10 minutes on the day it came back.

BongoBob Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 That really sucks Jebbers. I've also realized my controller likes to frequently lose it's connection when playing Xbox 1 games. Hasn't done it to me so far in any 360 game though. And it's not the batteries, as I've tried 3 different brand new pairs, and they all do the same thing.

But I have the older non HDMI version.
TiE23 Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 Oh yeah, Bongo, do you have the HDMI version? And yeah, no problems with my controller, but I think I had a problem like that one time. But then again, I just played Halo 2 for 3 hours yesterday and no problems.
BongoBob Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 Well it was doing it to me last night in Gears Of War also, so it's not just xbox 1 games. So I turned it off and unplugged it all night and hopefully that will do something.
milo Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Well, I just found out that because my Xbox Live account was created while I was under 18, my account is still considered a "child account," meaning I can't use the messenger on the 360 until Microsoft fixes this error. What a bunch of bull****. I get screwed for being honest about my age. Why the hell would you be honest about your age for something like that? I just always say I'm 21. Anyway i got these: edit: Oh for ****'s sake, wrong thread.
BongoBob Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Lawls. In other news, I fixed my controller problem. After letting it sit for the whole night unplugged, I plugged it back in and fired up gears of war. As soon as it loaded up, controller disconnected. Pissed as hell, I reconnected it, and realized that on my 360 (which at the time was vertical), the ring of light lit up in the 2nd player quadrant, instead of the first player quadrant. So I took gears out, and then tipped the 360 ever so slightly to the right, and it went back into the right position. I stopped tipping it, and it went back into the second player quadrant. So I turned it off, put the 360 flat, and havn't had a problem since.

Since when did "Eternal Sonata out on 9/16" translate to "Eternal Sonata shipping on 9/16, probably won't see it in stores for at least until tomorrow" ? God dammit, Grooves better have an explanation. So I've got shafted for two of my games. And I was looking forward all day at school to getting it. Well, at least I got to play Lumines II on my PSP all last period and talk about super bouncing in Halo 2 and how violent Manhunt is.
BongoBob Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 I love superbouncing. Not in ranked matches, of course, but just for fun. Well, in ranked matches, only if they do it first, then I will superbounce and assassinate them, and that's extremely satisfying.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Red Ring of Death. Yeah. It just happen a little while ago. I was going to play some NHL 08. And I can get into the game and set up all the settings and once I get into playing the actual game, the game froze and then the horrific "red ring of death" appeared. Last night, I was playing NHL 08, and it was having the same problems, but the ring didn't happen. I have tried the restart it and the display screen pops up on (where you go to choose to play the arcade, xbox live, etc.) and then it freezes. I'm gonna have to see what I can do. I'll have to talk to Customer Service. ****.
BongoBob Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Until you get around to sending it off, try the .
Commander Obi-Wan Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 @BongoBob - nifty, but I'll pass. I have called Xbox and have gotten all the **** I need to get. Now, I get to play the waiting game. No Mass Effect until next month.
TiE23 Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 ^^^ It may work, and it won't void your warranty, you may as well just try, it can't hurt.
BongoBob Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Especially if Mass Effect comes out before you can even send it off.
TiE23 Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 I lost the GH2 tournament and didn't win anything. There were only 12 people including myself. But there were two great prizes and the game was messed up. They used the elimination bracket setup, where two people would face off against each other. I made it to the second round by sadly I went against the best player in the contest, and I was the second best. So that means that the best player and some other not-as-good-as-me guy would get second. The more I think about it the tournament was flawed, it should have been attrition, like this: Everyone plays a song on medium and their scores get written down, even if you lost in split screen you could still continue. From there they would choose 6 of 12 to continue to the next round. Play a different song on hard. Take the top 3 of 6 and have the play another last song on expert. The top two would then win... And the prizes were freaking great for such a small contest! A used Xbox360 with two wireless controllers and GH3 for 360 (no guitar)!! ****ing flawed game. The kid I lost to probably could do Jordan. He got 100% on The Trooper on Medium, when I admit I missed a few notes on. The song I lost on was "Can't You Hear Me Knockin'?" on Hard. I got 170k and he got 195k. And I just got home and played it again, I got 215k on my first try. I was nervous. :\
