Xbox Live or PC?

AnothrSpacecat · #16 (**permalink**) 13-11-2007, 03:59

i dont like playing consols on my own, so its good i have 2 friends who are often willing to visit to play halo 3 or pro evo with me on xbox live.

buy everything you can, a big poker win can go a long way with techno logy. ive got an xbox and a good tv for it, and a decent pc (laptop aswell for couch/bed internet), when the broadband works i can sit for 6 hours straight with halo.

I suppose playing online removes the need for pals Spacecat

Im all depressed now and i dont want anything. I might go browse ebay and buy some shite. actually i always wanted a phone cll recorder. why? i dunno as i will be shit with it. I thought it would be funny to make prank calls aye about 3 years ago

I dont want an xbox nopw nor a new computer. i want nothing. i think im just gonna gamble it Spacecat and get some new clothes and a haircut. Nah i know im gonna buy a Classical Guitar. thats just what i will do. Im going to a poker tournement in my local town friday night so im gonna take along a load ...bah i better not say as walls have ears. aye who needs money. as i mentioned it could have all went on the turn of a card. i only wanted a xbox for isss but if thats shite then i aint interested. I dont want to play games. i like them but they aint productive for me. Aye no more games for me in life. thats it my game playing days are over

Ive been looking at getting one and getting it chipped Kiko. In the day and age of 30mb download speeds it could be my best option. Does anyone know anything about it as i must admit it's all just blurgh to me. I dont know what im doing here. i need it solderless and just easy for me to copy games in. this looks the most likely at the mo-

you cant back up games onto a xbox 360 hardrive. only way is to flash your dvd drive's firmware and make a backup copy of your game by hooking up your 360 dvd drive to your pc.

looks like you can then play them. So its just flashing the drive. Online play wopnt be allowed. Let me go look at the price of the games. Kiko what ISS have you got btw? Is it laggy online?

I dont have any yet. I ordered the newest Pro evo and it should be here anyday.

I have played Pro Evo 6 online via Xbox though and it wasnt laggy at all. Was amazing infact

I have a mate who flashed his xbox360 so he can download games for it, very easy to do aparantley, I am sure you could find out online how its done. If I remember correctly though you have to have a certain type of dvd drive to burn the games correctly.

The 360 games are too big to fit on a DVD so you have to use dual layer DVDs - which means you need a dual layer writer too.

Cheers chaps. Well i got drunk (would you believe) and woke up at midnight with £270 spent on an xbox

i dont know why as i wont even play it. I got the latest ISS 2008 there but cant get online ...as it's a tricky bugger especially as i already have 2 computers on the network i'll have to read up on it. Im away into town at 9am to finally pay my rent and ive got enough left for 'Dead Rising' that should do me for a while.

**kompressaur** · #27 (**permalink**) 14-11-2007, 06:04

im away back to bed for a couple of hours to watch high stakes s4e12 and a little bit of porn. Can anyone recommned a good 2 player game to me? Something like Dead Rising would be good (thats not 2 player) an action adventure poss. ill get tennis too, no fightling games just a good 2 plyer game thanks

cheers Seen. Is there an on that list that isn't a 1st person shooter?

i really dont like playing them with a controller. Im struggling a bit at Dead Rising on the shotting modes. Great game mind. Been playing it the past couple of hours since getting back from town. Prob with my telly is that the subtitles are coming up a bit small and i cant read what i supposed to be doing

Got a MTU error when trying to go online. Need to fix that. And i said i would finiosh the frontpage of tdp the other night. Im prefering Dead Rising

I aint even played poker and my uploading business has stopped. Just need a few days off the drink and i'll catch up.

Sorry Komp, I thought that your fav genre

Anyway, I would defo get CONDEMNED....not really a shooter, more a first person action survival horror, to tend to club people to death rather than shoot them. Actually it's pretty creepy, great use of sound.

The Godfather is pretty good too.
