Time to buy an XBOX360? - Page 247

Spoke to soon :/

I forgot something pretty important.. media streaming. Just not enough bandwidth - files I could play fine before take time to buffer, and some of the larger ones just dont start at all.

I'll have to get a cable there somehow. Might ebay the powerline adapters.

Well I went to grab 300 from the Marketplace earlier because today is the day that it's up for 100 points.

It's the SD version only. HD is still over 500 points. I'm not bothering with that. Pah.

Must be an error. It says all over the place that the HD version will be 100 points. Hope they fix it as I was interested in that :/

Oh good, I'll check again a bit later. I didn't sleep well last night and at about half past two I was sitting in front of the Xbox looking for the download!

How much would you be looking for them? I'm interested in the whole powerline thing... not sure how it will work in the flat though...

Haly · 28-12-2007, 16:49

Yup.
Had a disc read error earlier but it didn't really worry me and I had to go out. Came back and turned it on, 3 RROD

Reckon I'll be off to buy a new arcade soon and sell the refurb.
