The Bike Pack was up at like 10 AM or something, it's just an automatic download when you start the game (at least on PSN, Idk if that's how it works on 360 too)

Too many games getting released so quickly (I understand Holiday Rush)
[Some good, Some bad]

It's like Hollywood infiltrated the Gaming sector

Games are coming out like Blockbuster hits, one after the other, some days apart, some maybe a week or two apart

Gotta get my PS3 fixed, poor laser, have an original 60GB, gonna cost me 149 + tax, so $165 going bye bye, that would have gone toward up to 3-4 games

My third 360' RRoD'd yesterday. Talk about a bad time with all these releases. Worked for a good 30 minutes before I turned it off after it happened though, so maybe it'll be good to go for a little while more.

Try the towel trick? It's only a temporary fix, but sometimes it lasts a while before breaking again... And way to many games this holidy season, its really rediculous... What's gonna happen is a lot of games are gonna have crappy launches while ppl are finished up "other" games and then those "select" games will pick up a few weeks later down the road. No point in buying games you won't get start for another week unless you have it pre-ordered

**Roranora** · 2008-09-19 13:01

I didn't even make it through all of the games I wanted to last fall. I'll just keep a pretty deep queue of games to play and tell myself I'll get to them eventually. >.>;

Got Mercenaries 2 today and it worked for a good 5~ hours just fine. The RRoD yesterday was just after a powercut, so I think that might have fucked something up at the time. Hopefully it'll keep working atleast til all these games come out and I finish them. Guessing the cold weather now isn't helping any, but I have no way to keep it from getting stupidly cold so I can't really do much.

**Katlan** · 2008-09-19 13:10

My 360 once RRoD'd when I think the power-cord wasn't fully plugged in or one of the connectors was loose. Might just want to check to make sure everything is connected firmly and the HD isn't a little loose and shifting.

**Kiarax** · 2008-09-19 13:14

Oh no, everything is/was connected fine. The unconnected RRoD is all 4 lights flashing, this was all but the top right one, which is the common "you're fucked" RRoD. Unless you mean you got that too in which case disregard that.

*psst* That's what betas are for.

**Kyo** · 2008-09-20 10:51

He's never participated in a beta before, cut him some slack, if you kept up you'd know that whitey.

**Vandole** · 2008-09-20 11:46

You don't understand the concept of "beta tests" on consoles, do you.

**Charismatic** · 2008-09-20 20:38

wat
If you mean to imply that they are for anything other than finding bugs and glitches before the final release I'm just going to laugh at you and ignore every single post you make from this point on.
(having participated in several of said betas I can tell you that's very much the reason for them JUST LIKE ANY OTHER KIND OF GAME BETA)
