The Old XBOX Megathread

[Ruki]

Fitzy, LL cheated on you. He helped me do about half of one mission line which I still need to finish.

[LL!]

He knows. :yes:

[Fitzy]

He did the same with Ellis, too.

I guess I will play Fable II. Might as well attempt to finish that after not touching it in over 3 weeks.

[Ruki]

You will have like a million gold.

[LL!]

Wait what? You get money while the game is offline?

[Meacon Keaton]

I think it stops after 500 hours or something like that, but yes.

[Fitzy]

Well it's been over 500 hours since I've played it so I guess I am not earning any more money.

[King Ellis]

Go collect your money and then leave it again then.

[Meacon Keaton]

Get on, play for five minutes and then let it sit for another 500 hours?

[Ruki]

For not playing for a week I got 400k....so, I should have over a million when I get my 360 back.

[Fitzy]

I'll play it today, get my money, and not touch it for another couple of weeks I am sure.

Some DIY previews of the Premium Themes.

The Halo Wars one is very nice, if only the stupid faces weren't in the skyline, Forza 2 is ok as well. The GoW2 Destroyed Beauty is better than the freebie. Ninja Blade is also cool, kinda like the night theme that comes with the NXE, not sure if that's just for Japan though. I love the guy who used a picture of the earth which, when covered with the grey shit that's on the dash now, makes it look like you're on the Moon.

The new XBox is fucking rad. Installing Fallout 3 as I type to see what this feature is like.

[King Ellis]

It makes load times longer and makes the system louder.

[Cactus Drags]

I win.

[Maxx]

Well, my girlfriend certainly won't be attracted to that.

[King Ellis]

I win.

You mean Rich wins.

[Cactus Drags]

No, Rich lost for finding the Gollywogs and getting them removed

Maxx, it's the British accent, forget it, you're already dead to her.

Bringing up the rear, but MS have confirmed they've received my console. Two days door-to-door isn't bad, I guess. Here's hoping they can get it back as quick - but why do I suspect they don't work weekends?

[Ruki]

Because they likely don't work weekends.
