Well, I have the e-mail but I still cannot CONFIRM myself. I tried a second time...I actually got a page with a code, but then the server timed it (It looked like the one above, but WITH a code actually)
 
I'm still trying as well. Got one with a code finally, keep pressing F5 everytime to resubmit but it continues to time out. It says that there 1025 codes left but its been showing that for 30min now.
 
Hmmm I went back to the site, and finally the code came up and I put it in, I pushed submit, the page loaded and nothing happened.

Is the page suppost to say something after I hit submit?
 
i just got an email confirmation, but when i click the link to get the code i get a message that says,

"SORRY!
AN ERROR HAS OCCURED
Try that one again."

i keep trying and so far nothing.

edit: after many many many refreshes, i finally got my code {=D 3 hours later
 
Interesting, Test drive unlimited stopped crashing a couple of days ago. I think it was crashing because of the online element. Before I would see other users connect,now it's just generic people. I guess they turned off the servers because it was causing the game to crash.
 
Got my 500 FREE points today finally...my confirmation e-mail FINALLY went through. Funny thing is...you better write it down then, because they don't send you another message

From yesterday?

I've been trying today and no luck still. I get code but then get the "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding" when I try to submit.
 
Yep, from yesterday....I was able to get in yesterday and go through the process. The website still SEEMS to let people think they can get codes, but they are all gone supposedly. Linkin, did you get an e-mail yet? If so, keep trying....you only have 24 hours to confirm it.

Nope no email. I'll keep trying from time to time.
 
Did anyone have any problems with the FIFA World Cup demo? When the game loaded (after I selected teams and unis), my HDTV started flickering, and it continued to do so into the dashboard. It was ok after I restarted it.
 
I'd kill a man for another E3 demo... one to make up for Test Drive, anyway.
 
[quote name='KaneRobot']I'm feelin' a little naked here without a boatload of new XBL content for me to wallow in. Last week spoiled me.[/QUOTE]


I hear ya...too bad everyweek can't be like e3 week on the marketplace. Hopefully, last week wasn't just for MS to "show off" and then go back into hiding regarding marketplace releases.

Also, with the seemingly lack of interest MS has in BC, I fully predict that they will abandon updating this (crappy) list before the end of this year...which is too bad. :(
 
I'm still wondering what happened to the PDZ maps. They were supposed to be released 5/8 according the XBOX LIVE newsletter that they emailed us a couple days before E3.

I liked Test Drive a lot, I'm going to pick it up when it comes out.
 
Didnt want to start a new thread for this....

Did you know that J. Allard has a custom gamerpic?

[quote name='deadite76']See No Evil[/QUOTE]

Nice to see an old school mindless-monster-hacks-up-naughty-teenagers horror movie can still get a decent amount of publicity. These uber-cerebral horror films that try to make you think and have "you'll never guess the surprise ending!" twists can be ok (Saw) or crap (Saw II), but once in a while I want rampant bloodshed with no excuse. Since a Freddy vs. Jason sequel is still a ways off, I'll take what I can get.
 
[quote name='Madskills1182']Is Uno worth downloading? And are there a decent amount of people playing it on Live?[/quote]

Yes, and Yes.

People report not seeing people on live at some points but I found out that if you search for custom matches, for ANY criteria, sit there for a few secs and you get a long as list of games at any time of the day. I think what confuses people is that it comes up with 0 Games Found on the top of the screen while it searches, then it will refresh with the list and the number will change.
 
Boris Schneider, Xbox Germany's senior product manager, has allegedly confirmed (via Xbox Archiv) that an impending Xbox Live dashboard update will install a background downloading feature. In addition, users will be able to queue up to six content items, which will download sequentially (not simultaneously). Downloads will pause during online play sessions and while the console is powered off.

Other features included in the dashboard update were not detailed. Schneider also confirmed that the update would be released by the end of the month.

Sexy if true.

[quote name='doubledown']I believe there was another Kameo (I think?) demo up and a few more movie trailers up.[/QUOTE]

Not another demo, just a trailer showing off the new demo and content downloads from last month.

Wow, Uno did pretty well then, considering everything else on the list was free. Hopefully this means more decks will be released.

I wonder if #5 is all of the X-Men packs total. Seems like it would have to be, or there would be more than one on the list.
 
[quote name='doubledown']Yes, but did they assume ALL people bought UNO or just D/L the trial version?! Is that the FREE CoD2 map-pack also....just curious.[/quote]

The Skirmish Pack is the one that costs 400 points. It's hard to believe that it beat out the free one.
 
[quote name='Sporadic']That's nice but it sucks that it is coming out 12 days after the game.[/QUOTE]

The games not due until July.

How many cars does the PGR3 update have? If it's 3 or more, I'll move my 360 upstairs so that I can download it.

Sounds like a cool Oblivion download, but I'm not much of a stealth character, so I may not look into it too much.
 
I would just like to say that that UNO purchase was a good invenstment. Kinda makes up for my feeding frenzy purchase.
 
[quote name='sj41']How many cars does the PGR3 update have? If it's 3 or more, I'll move my 360 upstairs so that I can download it.[/QUOTE]

Its three. There is also an auto-update for PGR3
 
[quote name='Madskills1182']Anyone know what the auto update is for?[/QUOTE]

Someone on xbox.com mentioned it enabled the game for the Cadillac download, but also fixed some of the multiplayer problems.

I haven't heard any confirmation from Microsoft though.
