The Old XBOX Megathread

[LL!]

I thought it looked great but I have this weird mindset now where like I want to punish Ubisoft because I hated AC3 so much. Probably just punishing myself though

You seem to be the only one that hates it.

[Nick Adams]

Yeah. Most of us just dislike it a little bit.

[King Ellis]

Anyone who has Halo 4 and hasn't bought the DLC or pass, if you go to War Games and try to go on the DLC playlist, it'll say you don't have it and prompt you to go to the marketplace to buy it. However, it comes up as 0 MS points!

Totally works and I even got one of the new achievements in my first match without even knowing what they were. Wonderful, wonderful.

[Dan]

800 for me...

[King Ellis]

Maybe they fixed it? I dunno, all I can say is it worked for me.

I like all the people who paid complaining about it. Probably rightly so but still, 'This is BS. I paid a lot of money for my Limited Edition. We should sue M$!'

[Dan]

When did you get it?

[Maxx]

My roommate did the same thing last night. 343 was aware of it and event told people on Twitter to go for it if they could get it.

Also haha Dan.

[King Ellis]

I got it pretty much right when I made that post about it, like I started the download and then came here to post it, went back and played a match and then edited the post to include that second bit about the achievement.

[Dan]

Did you ever redeem a specializations code?

[King Ellis]

I did actually, just last night. I'm guessing that's the culprit?

[Cactus Drags]

I don't care, I got my pass with my limited edition on the cheap. Need to play with someone soon, want to see how my new headset handles actual voice chat.

[King Ellis]

I will play with you! I want to do Spartan Ops on legendary too if we get more than just us two.

            There's a bit there I'd get if the prices were right. Only got 300 points right now though.

[Ruki]

I think I have almost 1200.

But Hell Yeah seems like it would be fun.

[Benji]

Walking Dead series, Borderlands season pass, and Dust for me!

May pick up RDR depending massively on how cheap it is and whether it includes expansions. Loved playing it on PS3, and would love an excuse to play for all those achievements and online again, but with everyone else.

[Maxx]

And reading about Overrun just sold me on Gears of War: Judgement.

Get ready fellas, Maxx is back!

Now come revive me.

[9 to 5]

Again? :/

[apsham]

Fez is an absolutely amazing game.

[Monkey D. Lars]

Guys, I took my xbox to a friends house and now I'm playing at home but the resolution changed and I have no sound whatever I try.

[Dan]

As the console starts, press and hold the Y button, and then pull the right trigger at the same time. This causes the Xbox Dashboard to reset the display settings to the default settings and then automatically restarts the console.
