is that all legit? cant see how ud buy a live subscription from someone other than microsoft.

I don't know about that individual stores but I got mine off eBay for £26.50 it's only the 12 month cards like you buy from game or play.com for £35. Just some people are not as greedy. Microsoft just rape your bum with £39.99 for being too lazy to buy a card

I managed to persuade my bro into trading up to an Elite with NFSS and FIFA10 at Gamestation, so he's got an Elite for £120 and I've got £47 off of my LCE for thursday night!

my actual xbox has been banned, so i can't just use another account.

the projector is an Optoma HD700X which is 720p, and i run it with an Onkyo 606 cinema amp, and b&w 601 s3 fronts, b&w cc6 s2 centre. need to sort out some rears, but as my sofa is up against my rear wall i need something like some small bose cubes or equivilant as space is limited. sounds amazing as it is though, just missing the full surround experience.

All that kit and you can't afford to buy the games? :p

Getting to the gruelling races now. There are 220 race days in all, with 3/4/5/6 races so I would say over 1000 races in all. R1 world championship has 13 races in it.

Going to try a few drag races...

Well it can be none, you can even do it with car in auto if you want. Hardest part is getting the right motor

they should have made drag racing fully manual with clutch. I don't see how driving in a straight line with an auto gearbox can be that difficult

yep i though they would have added some more detail?? i remember one of the NFS's years ago where you had to hold revs on at a certain speed to get the perfect start and gearchanges in a window of a few rpm near the red line.... i remember it being fun....
specially with all the different sorts engine/transmission types needing different engine speeds for the perfect launch.

Got a reply back from Gameseek.co.uk about the post strikes and my pre-order of Forza 3.

Mathew,

Sadly, everyone is expecting delays. Little indication is given as to how long they will delay things. There's no real alternative that we know of that would allow us to ship all our orders out and guarantee no delays.

I'm sure this isn't the answer you wanted to hear, but I don't know what else I can suggest.

Best Regards,

Karl

whast with all the pre ordering? why dont you guys just pick it up from a shop on the 23rd?

I think most people pre-order online tbh. simply beacuse it's easy. There aslo the chance of it being delivered a day early which is a bonus. It's just morer talked about with this due to the strikes...most probably pre-ordered several months ago...

1. Because i hate going into Game and lining up with all the crazy 10yr olds, waiting for ages to get served whilst they are jumping around with games in hand.

2. You get there and they dont have any copies left because all the 10yr olds parents have queued for about 5 years waiting.

3. The LCE copy will more than DEFO be all sold out.

4. I might not have time to get into town, find a parking space, which costs half the price of a game these days, and then go into the shop to find that problems 1,2+3 have occured.



Its much easier to sit my ass in front of the pc, order the game well in advance, thus ensuring i get exactly what i ask for, avoid problems 1-4, the only problem i may encounter is my game arrives on the day it gets into the shops rather than a day early because of a postal strike. Game have so far assured me my game wil be delivered as promised on time.


:cool:
