I got my Zero Hour Faceplates yesterday in the mail (Finally)

I think I received 2 because 1 for filling out the index card there in order for them to get your mailing address, and 2 because I was a winner of the hex168 contest. Another guy I was hanging with there also received 2 of them, thats the conclusion we came to, since we also know people who only got 1 that weren't hex168 winners 🙂

I personally think they are ugly and are going straight to ebay, unless someone wants to trade an E3 or PGR3 faceplate for one of em. If intersted let me know ...

You willing to sell one? PM me with your price. 🙂
 
Hmm... tried watching a couple dvd's just a couple minutes ago. Both DVDs (brand new) froze when I tried to play them through the XBox 360.


Anyone else experience a problem like this?

i can't wait to get this game... it looks great.
The game intro for DOA 4 from Ruliweb.

I'm not a fan of all the jiggling (well... REAL ones, sure. But not in CG, when their only purpose is getting kiddies all worked up. 😉 )... But fighting on the busy street is awesome!

Sh!t that looked good. Wonder how live action gameplay will look?

That IS Live action gameplay... not CGI...

360 uses game engine only for it cutscenes..

How does the DOA series compare to the Mortal Kombat games?

Well, they don't share much beyond both being fighting games. DOA is one of those games that is easy to pick up and play and fun to master. They supposedly tightened up the counter moves which were a little too easy in previous iterations. Also, the environments are just gorgeous and supposed to be more interactive in DOA4.
 
Anyone having any problems using their Xbox360 to connect to Windows Media Connect? I've got WMC running on my PC and it sees the Xbox, but when I try to find a PC running WMC with the xbox, it always says "no pc found". It's frustrating. I've searched the xbox official forums, tried what they said, to no avail. 360 is hardwired in and PC is wireless.

Probably a problem with your home network. I'm having similar issue with my PC, laptop, and 360. They are all on the network and can ping each other but none of them will share files.

turn off all firewalls... the signal is being blocked... need to figure out what port it is and open it up. but turning off all firewalls or leaving on windows firewall and pressign the reset windows firewall button in connect will allow the connection

Try some of the stuff on the above link. I had to do some of these things and mess with my firewalls a bit before I could get it to work.

Also, FYI: Quake 4 and Condemed demos are up on live.

Free downloads, or do they cost points? 😛

Quake 4 is crap!
 
Yes, Condemmed in a great game. I'm 5 chapters through it and it's been great so far.

In other news, my DOA4 preorder from EB Games shipped! W00T can't wait! 🙂

Yhe EB here in NC said he should have it this afternoon. The guy asked me if I wanted to preorder, and I laughed.

 
Yeah I would have just gone to the store, but this is a (now) late Xmas gift from my sister. She put in the order on their site a few weeks ago.

Why can't I have a sister or gf like that? I only get clothing, and most of the time it sucks!:disgust:
