How about long hair, a beard, and an American flag tie? ;)

[quote name='munch']It does that because it's trying to connect to live, I think. Or at least that's what it was doing with mine. I signed out, by pressing x, and it worked. I was getting royally, like George III, frustrated because I just got a wireless adapter, and I thought that was the problem.[/quote]

Hmm, guess that's it, then.

In that case, fuck XBL.

Actually, fuck the 360. I just tried to sign out of XBL and my 360 fucking froze twice.

Awesome first impression.
 
[quote name='Liquid 2']I'm sure glad I'm not one of your favorite OTTers then, because Liquidy sounds naaaaasty.

This is really funny when I imagined you saying it like Cleveland from Family Guy.

[quote name='JohnnyFoxDarko']I'm a favorite OTTer by default.[/quote]

Does that mean you should go by Foxy?

That sounds like some sort of food I want to avoid. "No thank you, I'd rather not ruin my appetite with strellie."

[quote name='AngellicLulu']wow I thought I was moody[/quote]

Naw, we're nothing to Pixie, it seems.
 
Relax, Rocko.

They rarely have problems with XBL, and I imagine it will clear up soon.

Flag ties are the ugliest things imaginable.
 
Gonna clean out my XBL friends list.
[quote name='Rocko']Oh, and that reminds me, it always tells me it can't sign in to Messenger, whatever that means.[/QUOTE]
MSN Messenger, or whatever it's called now -- Windows Messenger, or something.

You can disable it from trying to sign you on.

Same thing happened last year around this time, IIRC. 'Course, it didn't matter to me, because the USPS was busy taking a month to ship me my gold card. :bomb:

who said anything about Pixie... you're inferring what I was implying. Or are you implying what I'm inferring? Creed?
 
[quote name='AngellicLulu']there he goes again... off to see his exgirlfriend, not listening to my pleas.[/quote]

Someone needs to be tied to the bed and spanked. ...and not in the good way either.

[quote name='JohnnyFoxDarko']Got my Wii friend code up now.
[/quote]

Wii sucks.

[quote name='Rocko']That's pretty cool. Like displayable bragging rights. I like it.[/quote]

Me too. Guys, stop making me want a 360.

You have a GameCube and a DS... why on EARF would you need a 360?
 
[quote name='JohnnyFoxDarko']I was thinking more like Johnny.[/quote]

When people call you JFD, I feel like we're referring to some politician long dead. Johnny works better.

[quote name='AngellicLulu']who said anything about Pixie... you're inferring what I was implying. Or are you implying what I'm inferring? Creed?[/quote]

I believe I was inferring something entirely unrelated to what you were implying, perhaps?

If so, what'd you mean about moodiness?

[quote name='Brak']You have a GameCube and a DS... why on EARF would you need a 360?[/quote]

No shit. The amazing gaming mechanics of my newly repurchased Gamecube have kept me entertained late into the night.

(Pft, actually, in the aftermath of the loss of my Wii, I've maybe given that Cube three hours of time. I miss my sexy, glossy box.)
 
I have a Wii and a 360, and I play my 360 about 10x as much as my Wii.

The Wii has some real great games, Zelda, MP3, Zack and Wiki, but I dunno, it's just something about the 360: the community, the achievements, etc, that keep me playing consistently.
 
[quote name='Liquid 2']Hey Brak, do you have some sort of hip radio moniker that you go by over the air?[/QUOTE]

That'd be pretty funny.

I'm asking because the dad of this girl I know has a radio show on KUT (Austin's local, public station, but you knew that), and he's basically a local celebrity (he goes by his real name), so people are always asking her, "Oh, is ____ your dad!?"

The idea of Brak as a local celebrity seems hilarious, so I can only hope he doesn't. :lol:

Brakdaddy McGilacutty.

I'm not an on-air personality. :lol:

Well, I do record the news and weather on Sundays, but that's the only time my voice appears on the air.

If I had it my way, I'd never talk on the air -- I fuckin' hate radio.

I'd quit if they wanted me to be an on-air personality, simply because I a.) don't like radio, and b.) wouldn't be able to do what I want. (It's all about the $$$ in small market radio.)

It's very rare, but some people have said "I heard you on the news!" ... and I hate it when that happens.

The sports commentators, when we do local sports games, mention my name on the air a lot, so people recognize my name from that, too.

I'm actually blown away by how many people actually listen to radio.

They never recognize my voice, though -- only my name, since there are probably only twenty people in the United States with my name. The other fifty are in Sicily.

I got involved with a film festival, and throughout my time there, because more or less "the face" of their promos and stuff. It's prettyh awkward seeing yourself on a 40 foot screen in a theater, but it's even more awkward when people see you on the street and recognize you.

Also, my face is on the back of their tour bus. So ya...
 
[quote name='lordwow']It's prettyh awkward seeing yourself on a 40 foot screen in a theater[/QUOTE]
I could see that.

I've always secretly wanted to act, or do performance art.

There's been instances where I've seen myself (in the literal sense) on the "big screen", so to speak, and I don't like it. Now, if I'm not myself, and I see that person on the big screen, I wouldn't mind.

I hope that makes sense.

Finally won a Halo 3 match. Hijacked a vehicle and blew up a vehicle or two with the spartan laser in that match too. That was fun.

I know somebody here said the matchmaking thing doesn't do squat but it seems to be doing a decent enough job of matching me against people who don't completely destroy me.
 
Just did the first boat mission thing in CoD4. Neat, but damn if I can't control it. Too used the PC FPS. Recruit for me. ^_^

You really are new to Xbox, huh?

Ya, to be fair, I played an alter-ego of myself more or less. I even used a different name haha.

[quote name='TFN']Anyone need a copy of Mass Effect or The Orange Box for $45 shipped each?

Actually, $40 for TOB. :/[/QUOTE]
You stink.
 
I'm tempted to take Mass Effect off your hands, but I have too many games to get through before buying another pricey one.
 
If my father was a normal gamer, he would leap on Arcade Unplugged for $7.99 and Pinball Hall of Game for the original xBox for $4 shipped I told him about. But he seems perfectly happy with the five or so games he has. Doesn't he understand he needs to buy these games so I can play them? Sure, I don't live with him, but he should still be thinking of me.
 
God. Someone has the 360 on Craigslist for $180. It's only the core system, but damn. Bet I could haggle to $150-$160. Why don't I have assloads of money?
 
Liquid-

Did you shoot for the Pod Preserver Achievement, in Space Giraffe? Or did you just happen to get it?

I'll chip in half but I get to come over and play it any time I want.
 
I remember when TFN was all like, "Maaaaan! That CAG Gaming Night is money!"

And then he was all like, "Wombat don't suck dick."

And then Chris Benoit was all like,
