Hmmm, Oddd. Site wasn't down at lunch ^^'

try this one

Free 60... That has the possibility for so much win...

OY.   how many of you really have a 360?   Just about every friend i have has one right now and not one red ring of death, and if you kept up on such things, they have just been released with a new stable chip set and the famose red ring occurances are way down.

Personaly, Id never even begin to concider putting linux on my 360 even if I didnt loath and dispise it already.  For one, its a 400 dollar peice of equipment id void the warrentee for,  and second, there is nothing wrong with it right now.  Once again, dont fix what isnt broke.

as for getting trojan horses and all that other crap.. here is an idea.. stop pirating stuff, its full of viruses most of the time.  You wouldnt have had that problem if you werent downloading roms.

Sou, sou! You can't just go around downloading stuff from random sites, that's gonna crash the shit out of your compy for SURE. No, here's what to do - acquire QUALITY, and get somewhere safe to download stuff from. -w- Torrents are the best, but things like DC++ works fine as well.

...I just corrupted your moral, Cappy

Oh and also, me is sick and shit. DO NOT WANT. I HATE I HATE I HATE I HAET!

I'll openly admit that even though I don't own ANY next gen consoles, I'm still more of a PS3 guy, but I do agree with the captain in that the red ring of death isn't really that commonplace anymore.  

There are a lot of sob stories about people getting refurbished 360s and having to return them multiple times since they all failed.  And I don't doubt those.  

Nearly all consoles when they're first released has something wrong with it.  And they always fix it in later iterations.  

Regarding linux... well, I dunno.  Can't say much, and I'm sure you guys already know the PS3 was designed with Linux in mind...

Ah... piracy... I know where I download my stuff.  And if it was from a place I don't trust, I'd probably scan it with something first.  And SleepyD does buy things. just when he has money... (once or twice a month....?)
Support the anime industry~  (I think they really need it >_> )

Happy late birthday Pitkin-sama!!! As I rememer, it was yesterday, and I'm very sorry for missing it; There wasn't a single reliable wifi hotspot anywhere along the way ^^'

[C-Chan]

Aa sou sou.... I remember last year I whipped up that ME-tan/Amiga-tan picture precisely in celebration of Pitkin-dono's birthday!  
( I really should try finishing that thing some time.... ^^;)

Fortunately, Aurora and I drew an Amiga-tan elf in the ZeroSanity Christmas special, so we're covered as far as gifts are concerned).  ^.^

Added after 1 minutes:

Fufu... from that it sounds to me like Tsubashi-dono just acquired the greatest mobile device in the market,... or perhaps ever produced in history!!  ^v^

*nods head approvingly*

yes sir...

he's now the proud owner....

Hello everybody.
I've been soooo busy these past few months. i've only gots one year of schooling left so i guess its kind of expected.

anyway. seems like everyones active and well, i guess i'll have more time next year. ill need alot of catching up to do!

BTW Belated merry christmas to you people and a happy new year to you all!

[Bella]

Hello zjhentohlauedy! Hope you had a good Christmas and hope we hear more from you in the future!

[Techno the fox]

Well, here I am. At Os-tan Collections at 11:10 in the middle of the night.
But this time it's different than my average "Nightly Post" and I'll tell you why.

Two of the things I got for Christmas are: A Xbox 360, and a minifridge/dormfridge.

I was playing Sonic the Hedgehog *Nextgen*, I was at kingdom valley, when I lost my last life by falling. But when I hit the water/botomless pit, I didn't die and respawn, or go back to the main screen. Instead it froze...Solid..
Nothing would work, so I got up to do a manual reset.
I turn it off, turn it back on, load the game.
This time it freezes at the "Sonic Team" screen.
I do all that again. This time it doesn't even get to the home screen.

That's when I saw it..........

Red Ring of Death

Yes, MY XBOX RROD'd.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My mother bought it for me around mid-december and still has the receipt so tomorrow we're taking it back to walmart.
If for some reason they won't take it. I'm sending it to Micro$oft.
But so help me...I'm keeping the "Free game" that was included.
(Some motocross game)
YAAR!   X(

My Wii and Fridge still work great however.

I've had that wii almost a year now with no problems...But four days on the 360 and that happens...oy -_-
I'm glad the disc tray still works though or I would be out of a game.

I'm kinda trying to talk a dear family member out of getting an Xbox...I've always been a Playstation person myself....

[Nidas]

I'm on the "all the new consoles suck" side personally :p 360 is the only one with any games that particularly appeal to me at the moment but there's so many reports of problems with it that I've been putting off getting one for now. Wii is just too damn gimmicky and the PS3 currently lacks any killer games that would actually make it worth splashing the cash for (hey I'm on a student budget here :p). I'll just stick with my trusty PS2 and Xbox for now. I always used to be a Nintendo stalwart in the pre-GC days, then they turned fail ~_~

In other news, I've been watching the Saw trilogy over the last couple of days. Don't see what all the fuss is about to be honest, it seems kinda... mediocre to me >_> Still entertaining though :p

Oh and I have more uni work to get on with now, 3 essays to do over the next couple of weeks of what is laughably called a holiday. Joy.

* Nidas, away! *

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ouch.  I hope the XBox you get back isn't another one that RROD'd.

As long as you don't force your opinions on that family member, I have no objections. (well, unless it's your money, then you can sway his/her opinion however you want. ^^)

...speaking of objections, I have a Phoenix Wright game i need to start playing.



All I've known is PlayStation and Nintendo, really.  And dojin games on the PC. XD;

Most console games I love aren't known by very many people (relatively speaking), and probably doesn't appeal to the large majority of gamers.  I'm still on my PS2.  Still playing games on it. I'll wait and see how the games come out for the PS3 for 2008. The hype-machine known as the internet thinks it's going to be good.  And while a few games on the 360 appeal to me, I'm not willing to shell out that much money for just a few games.  (also on student budget, which tends to go to more anime stuff than games)

[NejinOniwa]

I'm putting all my student budget this year on buying myself a Wii; After buying DELTA I'm pretty much strapped, but I'll see what cash I can crank up.
PS3 seems just to be money for nothing to me, and 360 seems as unstable as Vista and as floppy as a 5.25 *snicker* and despite having some real good titles (looking at you there, Master Chief!) It's not worth it in my book. Nope, the NextGen console I'll be saving up for is a Wii, with Brawl and ToS2.

[zjhentohlauedy]

A Wii is fine. i've had one for about 4 months now. lots of gimmick like Nidas-san says but most games can also be played lying on the bed or sitting on the couch.
recently i've been preoccupied playing resident evil umbrella chronicles which is kick ass. yay for super powered Wesker.
i've also developed a liking to Wario ware for some reason.

but i still think the ulimate game device is the PC. nothing but doujin games fun!  :/
