My Xbox died last night - Off-topic

Not even a full year 360 days(thats weird) after we bought it, it dies.
About 2 weeks of locking up(on Netflix, in game, boot, and file browser)
it finally locked up while i was playing NFS: pro street and would not come back on
I just powers up, the center power light comes on, and ALL the lights on the controller come on...im guessing its something with the dvd-drive since if you power it up and press the eject button it will come on(just to lock up again 10min later)
But i got it reported to MS and hopefuly they will fix it.

sometimes...but when it does it locks up a few minutes later...
when powered on its just a blue screen (not even black)
the TV says No signal

^ Sounds like an over heated system.
Open it up and do a X clamp fix. This fix works but temporary.

If you're not getting the RRoD, it could be the external PSU is overheating.

Sucks for you. I'm on my third Xbox and so far, everything's fine. Get a PS3, they're more reliable and it looks like everyone is making the switch.
/heresy

don't have an xbox but personally I would not get a ps3 before sony would let me play all my ps2 games on it
only reason sony block it is because they lost soo much cash on ps3 and want people to rebuy the same ps2 games older'ish games from their online store
and support when somebody can't get some old scratched disc with some ½ shady game working and call their support

Still under warranty
hilaireg: the PSU was what the google search brought up BUT it said the light would turn red/orange when the 360 was powered on, but the light turns green like it should
my label should be here today or tomorrow...

Well got the email this morning that it will shipo shortly.
Already have a UPS 1Z#
But seems I'm not getting my console back(37th week of 2008) instead im getting back an older model(37th week of 2007)
Which to me...kinda sucks
Oh well hopefully i'll be playing L4D2 the 26th

Maaan. That's hella lame. The 2007 model has a HIGHER failure rate. That's ridiculous. You should at least get one with the Jasper motherboard (supposed to run cooler and have a much lower failure rate) and HDMI.
I can't stand Microsoft's support center. I went through hell and back when my Zune 120 (under warranty) crapped out.

Well, yeah. But I never play on Live with my original XBox anyway. That's the only one I have modded. But, you can set it up as a dual boot, to where it boots the original dashboard, and the modified one, if you still want XBL on the original.
With the 360, you can mod it, and play your games without getting banned. You just need to be sure you never play your backup games while connected to XBL, or you will get the "ban hammer."
I haven't modded my 360 because I don't have the means of doing it myself, yet.

Sorry to hear that mate .... My PS3 died on me a few weeks back

we have a WII. My wife just got me to pick up guitar hero III for it today. I don't have as many games as you, just transformers and zelda -I will probably get metroid soon.
I wish the controllers had a recharge station because I am sick of keeping track of how charged my AA batteries are. It seems like WII is not getting as many good games as other platforms. i am beginning to think it was a mistake to buy one. I mainly went with it because of fear of the rings of death with xbox.

I work on games as a team with my son. he plays repeatedly and gets all the skill while I search the internet for clues to overcome obstacles if he has reached an impass.
I am watching for whatever replaces the ds, because it must be due by now. we never got around to buying a ds and I think its too late now.

The Sims 3 for Android Htc G1

Ea mobile has said that they will release an android version of the sims 3. I have checked their website but there is no mention of the game. There is a video floating around the web showing an ea mobile representative talking about the game.
Now i do a basic google search on g1 the sims 3 and i find this website.
http://store.handmark.com/p/124778/Android/The-Sims-3-for-Android/HTC-G1
Is this possible or are they just trying to pull a fast one?
I bet they did
I saw it too. It has the same screenshots for WM smartphones. I guess they did a quick java port of the game and are expecting people to pat 8$ for this ****. Gameloft are doing the same thing. Let's face it - with only 2 phones on the market and not - so - big market share, android phones won't get much attention by the big game developers. I'm glad I got my G1 only 2 months ago, I think there will be more an more interesting games coming in the near future.
for big games companies, android is just seen as another crappy j2me phone, unfortunately... let's hope easy native development will soon be possible (and better market share should help too)
Sims 3 on the g1? I doubt it. Have you seen the requirements for it running on a desktop? Lol my laptop, my moms desktop, or her laptop can't run it without replacing the graphics card. She just bought a new laptop last night just so she can play sims 3. I can't see this running on the g1.
Not to mention it's only available for osx and vista. Not even Linux even though there are a lot more linux users than android users.

Oops I didn't check the link. I apologize. Has anyone tried it?
i wouldnt get my hopes up. i tried EA's monopoly port to android, and it was horrible. i'm expecting the same for this.
Yeah I don't really like EA's games. Gameloft has made some pretty good ones though. It just sucks b/c this same game for Iphone is 3d whereas we are stuck using sprites. I can't wait for the day when we start getting games like that.
yey, and google for the sims 3 on iphone video... our g1 could do that too!

I'm hoping with the release of the hero and galaxy that more people will start to take android seriously.

It was announced at Google I/O
The Sims 3 for Android – New Information from EA Mobile at Google I/O
While EA wasn’t able to video demo the game, they were nice enough to give us a bit of info to hold us over. We talk with Vikram Saraf who discusses new gameplay features and performance adjustments for the mobile platform.
Sims 3 is scheduled for a June 2nd release date on PC and Mac with the Android release to follow.
http://www.androidandme.com/2009/05...-new-information-from-ea-mobile-at-google-io/
Hrm Ill have to try this. I played the Sims on the N-Gage and it was a solid game to be honest. Ran a lil better then its GBA counterpart. So anyone asking about the G1 version, Id say its a strong possibility that its fun. Would run well too Im sure. =)
Yea. This could really go either way. I've never been a big fan of large games like guitar hero and prince of persia on mobile devices, but this looks like it has potential.
I could go for a sim city game.

Stunning? This is what the Ps3 WAS WHEN IT WAS FIRST RELEASED.
The XBOX IS CRAP. THAT THING IS NOTHING MORE THAN A REBRANDING OF THE ORIGINAL WHITE XBOX.
The PS3 does kicks its ass, and it will do so any day.
Now they get built-in wifi? Wow, my Ps3 from 2006 had that!
M$ sucks, and this another one of there schemes to fill their pockets up with hard earned money. Sure, Sony did release a new ps3, but it was for a new audience--not the same one that bought the original one. The slim offered nothing new that the original couldn't do.
All in all, don't waste your time on the Xbox 360. Even this one is vulnerable to the RROD issue.

And to the person who said "rebranded xbox" or some sh*t like that. Get your facts straight, its a completely new motherboard design that won't rrod! It does'nt even have a red ring of light! Only green! so up yours ps3 c*ck sucker
Oh and one last thing, most games on ps3 that are sold for xbox and ps3 (eg. cod) are programmed on xbox then ported to ps3! So its a bit obvious that the xbox is going to have better graphics because thats what the game is built for!

Mod is going to be of autobot logo. Have dremeled the case, now just waiting to be bothered to sand it all down and smooth out my cutting, then its time to spray it all
Also, the XBOX360 Slim does still have an over heating issue. It avoids the RROD by having a red led that pops up, and a warning on your screen saying your console is going to shut down, do not power back on until the red light disappears, but hopefully, it should be a lot harder to get it to that stage!

Galaxy on Fire 2

I didn't find a thread for this game, so I'm starting one.

This is a graphics rich, fairly immersive RPG/space flight sim (I've only played it for a little bit, so I don't know how far the gameplay goes). It's a THD, or Tegra Zone, game, and it's free for any device with a Tegra 2.
The controls can be a little wonky until you get used to them, but I think some fiddling with the setting/experience at the helm will fix that right up (wish it used a Wiimote classic, though). Gameplay is fun and not too redundant (so far), progression is pretty straightforward with freeplay quests on the side of the storyline, and it's freaking gorgeous on the Streak 7.
Did I mention free? If you haven't downloaded this yet, do yourself a favour and get on it. It's a great toilet surfer, if you know what I mean.
The only downside I've encountered thus far is that it's locked up on me twice, requiring a hard-reboot (that and the first time I tried to download it it crapped out halfway, but that could have been my T-Mo signal). It's probably fairly RAM intensive; I'm going to try killing apps before I run it, next time (something I usually avoid like the plague on FroYo+ OS). I've only run it on the stock ROM, so no idea if this plays well with StreakDroid or HoneyStreak. I also have yet to hook this up with the HDMI dock, but I'm looking forward to doing so.
This game, more than any I've yet tried, really showcases the awesome of the Streak 7. I was playing it in the hospital yesterday (friend having a baby), and the family there are all Apple people; iPhones, iPads, etc. They were all asking what the Streak 7 was (I had to find a polite way to say, "it's like an iPad, only better in just about every meaningful way").
**UPDATE**
I didn't realise this at the time that I wrote this, but the game is not free. It's free for a limited amount of gameplay, but then it costs to purchase the whole game. It's pretty awesome, though, graphically; so it might just be worth it for you. I haven't decided if I'll purchase or not because the darned thing keeps locking up on startup (requires a hard restart for the Streak).
Downloaded it and played it for about an hour up to the point that it said I have to purchase the full version to keep playing. Full version cost $15.
Did not buy it.
Other that that the game played amazing. Great graphics and video and audio stayed synced up the entire time. No freezes or reboots for me. Just doesnt seem worth 15 bucks to me. I would probably do about 6 or 7 dollars max for this game.
That was my .02.

I hadn't played it for that long by the time I wrote the OP. I might pay for this game (incredibly good graphics on a mobile; this is console-quality), but it keeps locking up my tab.

This doesn't work on it?

lol it works but not too well
OpenTTD is great but I use the files from my real TTD.
As for this game, playing it, works very well. I like it. Tho for "drilling" seems the on screen analog stick works better then the tilt controls, for combat tilt works better.
wow, I am willing to spend 5-7 bucks like I did on the xbox live games on my hd7, but no chance I'm spending 15 on any mobile game where a hard reset might mean me having to start the whole thing over. Maybe it will go onsale at some point.
Ok what I am reading from the official website, Galaxy on fire 2 is free, but what you can pay 5$ for is the Valkyrie DLC addon, which adds new story, abilities etc.
Galaxy On Fire is free till you get to the second level, then it tells you you have to purchase the game to go any further.
Yea which sucks.. 15$.. =/
But I do wonder, does the Android version not have the Valkyrie dlc?
gamesave share?
anyone willing to post their game saves??
you need root explorer to extract the save
the file directory is as follows
/sdcard/android/data/net.fishlabs.Galaxyonfire2THD/files/GOF2/gof2nvidia_v01
in there is where you will locate your gamesaves
