Hey anyone here get on live? if so what games do you play? maybe we can all get together sometime... a little avic411 meet kinda thing.

I can be found on live with rainbow six 3 vegas

how bout the rest of you?

what other games do you play?

i have madden,

i was thinking about r6, is it any good?

i was thinking about fear too, but i only have it on my computer

man bro, you need to look at the modding of the 360, if you got one em. but yeah r6v is pretty good. Fear sucks though, dont waste your time buying it or anything for the 360.. garbage completely.

oh, i have more games than that, but madden is the only one i play like that...and online. most of the time, im too busy to play, esp lately.

ok...i'll look into rv6..i'll let u know when i get it

im always on gears of war gamertag is ssaywah

What about PS3? Anyone?

What about PS3? Anyone?

With 6 out of 10 units failing at launch, i'd be suprised to hear too many people saying they have one. As for the 360, im on there as well. I play r6v as well as gears. I also play the hell outta Tiger Woods, but not online, I dont like how it plays online.

does anyone out there have both systems?

i am really considering a ps3. i don't wanna throw in the towel on it just yet because i feel like it needs some time to get some games.

i don't like how the xbox does not have an hddvd drive and no wifi connection.

if i wanted all those, im looking at a ps3 pretty much. and that new xbox elite is a joke.

I though a 360 was equivalent to a modded xbox? Funtcionality wise I mean, obviously its' hardware is much more advanced. I though the 360 does now what original modded with evox? What can you further mod on a 360?

As I still hold on to my modded xbox, Desparately need an upgrade.

Maybe I'm just out of date but I still play Halo 2 on line with the 360. Or Tony Hawk. Hey, dont make fun of me. I dont play all that often. But my tag is Rock Player. Rock Players is my company.

jaytrey the xbox 360 does have a hddvd add on, not really fair to compare an xbox1 to a ps3. but the online play for ps3 is horrible, but free.

You cant do the same stuff with the 360 as the xbox1, evox and such dont run like that. the most you can do is play backups. Theres some development in running linux and such but thats not going to be the average user.

The elites are nice,especially if you have 120 gigs of content to store on it. Far better then the ps3 that is easily 120$ more with half the memory.

I've got both a modded 360 & PS3.

PS3 is primarily used these days for blu ray movies.

Lots of game for the 360 though. I actually enjoyed FEAR. Now I'm playing ghost recon 2. I haven't gone on live in a while, but maybe it's time to revisit Halo 2.

360 gamertag = hoodleprechaun

ps3 = aids4u

so are there good modchips available for 360? i had my orginal xbox modded but wasnt aware that there were any good modchips for the 360 available.

please help!

no modchips are needed. only the firmware is crossflashed. A friend of mine does this for a hobby. $50 plus shipping charges will get it done. PM me if interested and I'll pass along his email.

dont pay for the work, its easily done yourself. everything is readily available. I wouldnt feel comfortable myself anyways sending off my $400+ system to someone i dont even know. Everything is automated pretty much in flashing so you should be fine loading software.

Mod chips are available, requires soldering, and actually some have smart switching to where they switch the chip and its firmware off for retail purchased games and back on for backups. kinda neat feature, not necessary though.

just wondering...

is the/will the ps3 be moddable?

i feel like im asking if something can be bypassed...jesus.

well there is already development for the ps3, soo um.. i guess yes is the short answer... but what exactly will be known later.

Wii is. With the PS3 the underground's working on something similar to the original xbox.

Copy blu ray games to hard drive -> play games directly off hard drive. No need for disc.

Now that depends with the individual's comfort level. If you're comfortable opening up your xbox for the first time, risking breaking the locking tabs, and risking flashing your firmware incorrectly, killing the system, then by all means. For first time users this could take a couple hours ontop of the added hours to research the steps.

 

Secondly, you need the right SATA hardware to flash.

 

For me at least it's just much easier letting a pro at it. Similar to some folks rather having their nav installed by a pro, rather than experimenting themselves.

I didnt want to get into it like that itchy, but ok. What i am referring to is the sort of a shady practice of people profiting off of what amounts to illegal works. Now, I am not saying you or your friend do that, I just find it disgusting when people do things like sell pirated bootleg copies of movies for damn near retail. This relates because people are ripping others off for $50 or whatever to mod a system that costs nothing to mod. Its very much like the ol map disks, you jump on ebay and see em for like $75, thats insane.

Then theres the factor that no one knows me or you, let alone your friend. This isnt a burn towards you or your friend, its merely the fact that I personally am not comfortable with it. I have seen things go wrong so fast too often to let even a half hearted offer go by without suggesting reserve.

So before this gets ugly, lets agree to disagree, and keep this Off Topic thread on topic, lol (<--- that was a pun directed at myself, lol)

Thanks

I agree to some of your points, but I'm purely basing my logic on time vs $$.

People's time is of value.

You're an installer I think. You don't give away that service do you? I'd rather pay someone to do this than waste a sat afternoon trying to figure it out.
