Excellent news...

My dad's probably gonna buy me a core 360 today or tomorrow.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

I thought you got your xbawks fixed. :mad:




Posted by cool gamer dad

Ehh... not really. Funny story though. I was doing a sweet drum beat on it and it worked for about five minutes. Then it died again.

I SEEN YOU

I SEEN YOU ON XBOX LIVE




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

YEAH ME TOO

I MESSAGED YOU AND YOU DID NOT ANSWER

SAD KITTY




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

Last person I messaged was Willeth and he sent me back 'You mother ****er.'

Quoting cats: My dad's probably gonna buy me a core 360 today or tomorrow.


so wait, if you sent in your old one...they could fix it free of charge?



Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE, ANT! STRIKE FAST AND TRUE!




Posted by cool gamer dad

yeah.

I basically got tired of dealing with Microsoft about the shipping. They ****ed up twice by not sending me return address stickers in the empty boxes they send. Anyway, looks like I'll have two 360s.

but uhh... I'm not gonna send in the broken one any more because it's clearly been tampered with. I got mad after the second screw up and decided to go at it. All it needs is a new drive, which are easily replaced. After that, I could have a 12 person LAN (including my dad's box).

I have two xbawkses too! A premium with a broken drive and a core. DUDE, we're in the same boat!


Quoted post: so wait, if you sent in your old one...they could fix it free of charge?


No. Unless he lied and said he got red-lighted, because they only fix those for free, nothing else. And even if he did lie they could charge him anyways if they can't see a problem with it.



Posted by Kit

I got mine replaced free and wasn't red-lighted. It just thought that it was a DVD player and not a 360. If you've got a receipt and/or a bank statement you can just use those.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

True. If you got your walmart receipt they'll let you take it back and exchange it with a free one, no matter the problem which is pretty handy.




Posted by cool gamer dad

Got mine at Target.




Posted by cool gamer dad

oh, and core purchase is CONFIRMED. He'll probably pick it up tomorrow.




Posted by Kit

I had 2 working 360s for a while, my brother bought a 2nd one for university from his friend for a new Wii (Which he bought for his friend) and then sold the 360 back to him (Making a loss of

woooooooooo yeah!

Cats, FUCK YOU!!! :(


I am sooooo jealous :(

Your dad should totally buy me one. Hell, i'd even give him 2 bottles of whiskey. That would totally be a win/win situation :)




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

350 bucks isn't that much




Posted by Grave Wisdom

Well... it is when you are broke as hell! :(




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

it's neat because I make just over that in two days lol :)

Quoting Vampiro V. Empire: 350 bucks isn't that much


LOL NOT EVERYONE IS AS RICH AS UNITE



Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

microsoft should lower the price of the 360 to help less fortunate people




Posted by Grave Wisdom

They'll lower the price again within like the next year or so I think. Another $50 dollar drop would be pretty alright.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire


Quoted post: LOL NOT EVERYONE IS AS RICH AS UNITE


I'm going to assume everyone in this thread lives at home. If you wanted it you'd save for it. Even with a minimum wage job you could afford it in about three months and still have plenty of cash left over for various other ****.



Posted by Grave Wisdom

I could save up for one of course, but I want it NOWWWWWWWWW!!! :mad:




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

You should've had this desire three months ago.

how does i plan for the future?




Posted by Grave Wisdom

Totally my fault, and I realize it.

Hopefully i'll have a 360 within like the next month anyway.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

idk, man, you're going to miss the launch of halo. better just kill yourself.




Posted by Grave Wisdom

Yeah, I had been considering it :(




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

not everyone lives in mommy's basement!




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

you already have an xbox




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

but she's too poor to buy games

HAH, i owned you




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

thus why you never move out unless you have at least a 10,000 dollar cushion

Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

idk, holds that bowl pretty well. looks like a nice bowl




Posted by Kit

I'd rather have an Asda




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

lol, asda

they're charging

lmao

omg cool points



Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

Yeah, except I sorta had to move out.

Once I move into a cheaper apartment I won't be as poor. I'd almost sell my car to buy more games, but I love it too much. :(




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

WAIT GUYS, ISN'T HALO MEDIOCRE

Quoting Grave Wisdom: Hell, i'd even give him 2 bottles of whiskey. That would totally be a win/win situation :)

...woah. Scary.

It's like you know him or something... : /

Quoted post: WAIT GUYS, ISN'T HALO MEDIOCRE


No. Halo 2 just sucks because I didn't start playing it until, like, late 2006 and everyone was awesome.



Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Oh, and Halo 2 just sucks.




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

But Halo 3 will be better, right




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Yeah. For multiplayer alone. The key is to just get in on the action ASAP. Otherwise, it really is a pain in the *** to play catch up.




Posted by Roger Smith

I still play Halo for it's stupid cool storyline.




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Pretty disappointed they got rid of what made Halo 2 cool, the religious aspect of the Covenant. Ah well.




Posted by cool gamer dad

yeah, jee wizz, what ever happened to that?




Posted by Vampnagel P. Wingpire

I'd get it, but $80? No, thanks. Plus, I need to get my passport right away. It's more important than HALO. UH OH




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

people *****ed about playing as the arbiter.




Posted by cool gamer dad

I thought it was a nice touch!




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Same here, I actually really loved that aspect. Even if you don't play as the arbiter, why abandon it?

THIS IS WAR MOTHER****ER. WAR. IN WAR, THERE IS NO PLACE FOR RELIGION.

HERETIC! HERETIC! HERETIC! HERETIC!

The opening scene with the Arbiter getting BBQ'd is kinda disturbing for a HELLL YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH KICKIN *** game. Apparently he's only in Halo 3 as the Chief's BFF and little else.
