"Complete Control" by the Clash (master)



"Truth Hits Everybody" by the Police (master)



"Teenage Lobotomy" by the Ramones (master)

Why do they keep releasing shit from the same bands? Police suck, Ramones suck, and Clash sucks the biggest D of them all.[/QUOTE]

I like the Police, but those songs blow.
 
[quote name='dallow']I'm kidding.
Well, my lease is ending, but I have the option of renewing.
However, I don't like the price increase (about $100-130) a month.

I may stick around for another 6 months, or move somewhere nicer.

What I really want to do is invest and buy a condo. Might as well start early.
I'd do that now but I need to pay off some of my newfound debts.[/QUOTE]

Buyer's market now. Well at least around here.
 
[quote name='TFN']Ouch, one of the ladies here just addressed me as Lurch. :'([/QUOTE]

It's only bad if she's basing that on looks alone.

Which she might be.
 
[quote name='TFN']Ouch, one of the ladies here just addressed me as Lurch. :'([/quote]

Is she hot?

My buddy who is maybe 5'5" 140lbs has a crazy deep voice too. People probably expecting him to be huge if they only know him by his voice but his just a wee little guy. He's scrappy as fuck though and wouldn't think twice about fighting someone twice his size. :lol:
 
Hmm.. :whistle2:k

Without spending a lot of money, what's the best way to get rid of my 360 Premium for a 360 Pro (for HDMI)

I want an elite because I want a bigger hdd :(

You give me your 360 and in return I will go green on your Elite4free site. :cool:

Oh well I could always try.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']Hmm, I went from about 150 to 289 in a matter of days. :/[/QUOTE]


I'm convinced non 360 owning CAGs are picking out random tags with high GP scores to get on the leader board. :nottalking:

Even 360 owning CAGs are doing it.
 
[quote name='Strell']God, lilboo. Always wanting the bigger hard drive.

It's not the size that matters.[/QUOTE]

Yes it does! This small one just doesn't do it for me anymore :whistle2:(

Like that zewuno $$$$a?
 
[quote name='lilboo']Yes it does! This small one just doesn't do it for me anymore :whistle2:([/quote]I ended up flipping some games to GC to get the 120GB hard drive on credit, as the $180 price is a little ridiculous. I've swapped out my non-premium 360 with a premium one at Costco when it died, so I have an Elite in white now.

Right now, non-Arcade 360's are hard consoles to find, especially Elites. I think at this point, selling it 3rd party instead of trading it in would be your best bet on money. I think the trade-in value at GS is around $150, according to the Wiki.

If you could swing it, do it.

The tax break you'd get is worth it alone.
 
I picked up my 120 GB hard drive for about $155 with the missus' Best Buy discount before she quit. Still a shitty pill to swallow.

Skipping out on Rock Band songs this week in favor of the GRAW 2 co-op pack. When my 360 shows up.
 
[quote name='wubb']Are some 360 games in 1080P over HDMI? If not, I'd just stick with component and save yourself the headache.[/quote]I think all of them are supposed to be if they list "1080p" on the back of the game. I know Lost Planet made a big deal of it when it was coming out, as it was supposed to be the first 1080p 360 game, though I've seen that listed on just about any 360 game that's come out since then.
 
Man, you guys must have a hell of a lot of shit downloaded to be needing the 120gb.

Arcade games are capped at 150mb, no? So that's ~7 games per GB if they're all maxed. 13 or so gb... you'd have 91+ maxed Arcade games before it's full... probalby more since they're not all 150mb. DLC can't be that large either, can it? I can't imagine needing any more than 40gb total, the 60 in my PS3 is huge.
 
Demos can fill it up fairly quickly. I filled mine up (20GB) with 8 or 9 demos. But I just delete them to make room for new. Not a big deal.

Well then I guess HDMI is good to have. :mrgreen:

I assume it won't do 1080P over component? Or even if it does most TVs won't accept 1080P via component right?

1080p over component is TV dependent, unless it's blu-ray.

Well I know that one RB song is like 20MB, and one demo is like 1GB+ so yeah it feels up quickly.
 
Psychonauts is 4.9 gigs. I doubt I'll ever download another Xbox game, but they take up a lot of room.

I'm sitting at 6.4 free right now on a 20.

Need to delete The Club demo. Boooooooooring.
 
Woke up. Back is killing me. Back to sleep. Woke up again with back still killing me.




Today is going to be a great day.

Psychonauts is worth like 120GBs all by itself. That is possibly the best game of Last-Gen.

How much are Xbox games to download? /lazy

Considering you can get pretty much any of them for well under $10 used I don't see me ever buying one. If they added cheesemints to the downloadable games and some decent ones were $5 maybe...

And yeah The Club demo didn't do it for me either.

I have lots of demos on there that I should go through and try out, which is taking up a bunch of space. I also have a bunch of TV shows I DL'd as well sitting on there that I should get around to watching.

[quote name='wubb']Well then I guess HDMI is good to have. :mrgreen:

I assume it won't do 1080P over component? Or even if it does most TVs won't accept 1080P via component right?[/quote]Depends on the TV. Most don't, though some do. Westy's do, from what I remember, though again, depends on the TV.

[quote name='TFN']lol @ 120gb.

I have 65 XBLA arcade games, Gears maps, Halo maps, a bunch of other stupid DLC and I still have 10.2GB left.[/quote]You're just better at space management than I am. My 120GB cost me about $20-$30 out of pocket, so that's a small price to pay over $180. ;)

[quote name='corrosivefrost']1080p over component is TV dependent, unless it's blu-ray.[/quote]Where you're told politely to get lost. I think HD-DVD is the same way for 1080p. As I don't have a 1080p TV on-hand, I can't prove that myself at this time, though from what I've read, it seems to be that way.
 
[quote name='TFN']15 bucks for an Xbox game, wubb.[/QUOTE]

:wheee:

That goldfish thread makes me want to get one just to see if I can keep it alive for over a month. But then my cat would probably eat him...
 
[quote name='TFN']Why keep the demos though? Just play 'em and delete 'em.[/quote]

My question also.


Its a demo....why keep it past when the actually game comes out?

I don't think you'll find Psychonauts for less than $10 used. The rest, probably, save maybe NG:Black.
 
These are keen.

The thing about Psychonauts is that I've bought it 3-4 times, and adding another notch virtually doesn't bother me. It's not the best game of last-gen, but it's easily one of the most creative and definitely one of the most aesthetically thorough. Shafer is just unparallel.

But yeah, don't think I'll buy another. Xbox didn't have a great lineup as far as I'm concerned, which is pretty much confirmed when IGN's top 25 games were mostly EA sports titles, Halo, and the occasional cross platform title.
 
In limited situations, keeping the demo is fine, because you can play it until you get ahold of the game...

fuck... another day goes by and my MCRs are still unresolved and my GH3 is still somewhere in limbo. :\
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']I don't think you'll find Psychonauts for less than $10 used. The rest, probably, save maybe NG:Black.[/QUOTE]

Yep based on eBay looks like I'd have to go $15 shipped and then be a little patient.

I think I got my copy (since sold) for $10 new somewhere.

Psychonauts STARTS at $20 for used on half.com

The Xbox didn't have a lot of great exclusives but as a whole it has a great library IMO. Now if you already owned a PS2 and had played most of the worthwhile multiplatform releases then yeah there's not a ton there.
 
The Xbox totally wiped the floor as far as last gen was concerned. The only reason you might want to own a PS2 is if you are a JRPG fan and that is it.
