DP25, yeah.... there were so many local cod4 servers though :/

Calling all future MW2 players... if we can get enough of you together, perhaps we could create a local community of cod mw2 guys to give us all a good ping.

Anyone in for this, not going to buy the game for the sp, nor do i want to play with a > 300 ping.

Count me in im well up for that.

im in the process of getting a unchipped xbox so i can play xbox live,

huge COD fan and well up for playing regularly with some peeps here.

Any advice on where the best place is, Nadz and G corner have been pretty helpful in the past. i dont suppose anyone knows of somewhere where they just sell consoles?

The only problem is where to get a unchipped xbox over here, i normally go to Nadz project in silom but theyre all out of the falcon console (5900 no controllers etc) and im looking at having to fork out 14000 + baht for controllers, leads etc i dont need. I dont suppose you know anywhere that sells just consoles (un- chipped) ?

cheers

Do you mean that they sell the falcon consoles at 5900 Baht without the controllers?

They did, all sold out now.

curses.....

Im playing Fallout 3 offline on my other (modded) console at the moment but I'll be back online soon and probably gonna be picking up the following games over the next few weeks:

Borderlands

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising

Modern Warfare 2

Halo 3 ODST (Maybe)

My gamertag: easy c0mpany80

Is Halo3 ODST worth getting? I tired quickly of Halo 3 online and sold my copy...

hey man, add me my gamertag is akarmaka. i'm on a modded console, and it's updated with the latest firmware so i shouldn't get banned, i've had it modded for a month now and no signs of being banned yet. i download all my games and burn them and play, costs me 50 baht for each DL disc.

i'm going to get modern warfare 2 as well when it comes out. i've already got odst, the firefight is great and that's what i want to get some friends here for, cuz we can team up in 4's and play firefight, it's quite addicting. but...i wouldn't pay the full amount for an original odst disc, it's only 6 hours of campaign on odst, and the second disc is basically halo 3 multiplayer. but, i downloaded it so it didn't rape my pockets

what what what!

firmware what?

i thought it was impossible to play xbox live with a modded xbox?

pls tell me more.....

yeah, where is good to buy original games here?

flahpoint dragon rising is excellent, very realistic

Please be advised that M$ have wielded the banhammer again ever since late last week and have banned lots of consoles from connecting to Xbox live.

Normally this does not really bother me as I've had 2 consoles banned already, The BIG difference this time is that these newly banned consoles have disabled the ability to install and play full games which have been installed on the HDD!

I modded my 360's after buying 4 of them and having all 4 RROD! The repairs lasted a year and now cannot be repaired any further

I now have a modded PAL 120GB Elite and install all the games I'm currently playing to extend the lifespan of my current 360 (the DVD spinning generates heat and the 360 runs much quieter when playing from HDD)

I'll be getting another 360 (cheap PAL arcade model) when my mum arrives in the new year that I'll use for XBL games and the AAA games I buy once I'm sure they are great games. I buy my AAA 360 games from Amazon and get them shipped to my mum's house and she airmails them - only takes 3-4 days to get here

I don't really care about XBL but do like the ability to install full games onto the 360.

Be very wary when logging in. Even if you log in with original game in the tray you can get the ban!

And to think I'm still using my launch day Wii and PS3. Not had a single problem with either of these consoles

In my mind the PS3 wins out this fall with the AAA combo of Uncharted 2, Ratchet & Clank and Demonstone

Hello Ian

I too am a big xbox fan, been in Bangkok a few years now, have avoided xbox live so far thanks to advice like people like yourself. However as im sure your aware MW2 is out next week and i have every intention of slaughtering some peeps online. The only problem is where to get a unchipped xbox over here, i normally go to Nadz project in silom but theyre all out of the falcon console (5900 no controllers etc) and im looking at having to fork out 14000 + baht for controllers, leads etc i dont need. I dont suppose you know anywhere that sells just consoles (un- chipped) ?
