It took a month, but I finally got my Xbox 360 back last night. Or more accurately, I got a replacement Xbox last night. Which means I’ll be picking up Call of Duty 4 this weekend. I’m thinking Bioshock might be in the cards, too.

In Seoul?? I got mine replaced within 3 days when mine got the RROD back in April or May.
Bioshock,Halo 3,COD4,PGR4, Mass effect are all amazing.
Yep, in Seoul. Frustrating, but I’m glad to have my machine back.
Bah. Boost your PC and buy this:

I just rented COD4, that game is incredible, i’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Bioshock is pretty badass too, but it has a funny aftertaste… the type of game you love intensely while you’re playing it, and when you put it down you forget why. Maybe we’ll get a blog post out of it’s plot? It makes you think a little bit.
Just curious, When you called them, did they give you the option of getting a refurbished console the very next day?
When i did, i had to either wait for the system to be repaired (1 month) or get a refurb system (1 day), so i chose the refurb system option. They have stopped doing this now? Does your repaired console have HDMI output?
HIGHLY recommend COD4… I’ve never seen such a complex FPS multiplayer.
Mine died last week and I was given the option of repair or replace (didn’t hear anything about refurbished consoles). Replacement supposedly will take 3~4 weeks and I was told repair would have taken longer.
How long did you have to wait, Robert?
Woot! So much for the Xbox. I’m getting me one shiny new PS2 from Japan! 134k KRW, baby!
We’re living in 2007, friend.
Someone told me the Korean-market Wii launched recently. Anybody know about this?
“I’m getting me one shiny new PS2 from Japan!”
Lol! You should see if they’ve got that N64 that I’ve heard so much about!
To all of you who thinks the PS2 is so old-fashioned: IT! STILL! ROCKS!!!
You guys are so out of it. Retro is in. Wii, PS2, X-Box? Pshaw, they don’t even compare to my ColecoVision.
Oh my God, it’s, like, another WWII European theater game!
Not sure I’ll be upgrading my hardware for that. This:

and this:

on the other hand, might convince me… although both are being released for the XB360, too.
Games where you have to complete missions by controlling more than one player in 3D are just irritating to me. I like running around and blowing stuff up.
Hmm…some like retro, some like running around and blowing things up….I know, play this!
For those who like to play Matthew Broderick from Wargames, you can get this!
I pity the fool that doesn’t play “Star Wars: The force unleashed” when it comes out in early 2008.

‘Bioshock’ is brillant. Almost as good as ‘Gears of War’. Very different games, but both very good indeed. I’m hoping COD4 or Fky for Freedom for xmas from the wife. They both look great.
Not finished BS yet so I’m no hurry.
Looking forward to GTA4 next year too, out in the 1st quarter is the news on that one.
Hahahaha…
Hey fellas, I just had to share this.
