Time to buy an XBOX360? - Page 251

Awww

I'm guessing as I downloaded Hexic 2 through my US account and since then have changed X-Boxes, that's why it's showing up as a trial version now?
Bah!

Yes Jen

Can I put a USB hub on my 360? Is it happy with them? it's just that I've got a fair few USB devices connected to it such as my GH2 guitar, Scene It! controller receiver, original wired controller, play and charge doofer and I really don't want all the wires hanging out of the front.

Doh, didn't think of that! Ah well, it's worth 800pts, I just begrudge MS slightly for it.
I'm not sure re USB hubs I'm afraid.

Jen - Try signing in to the account you downloaded Hexic as with your primary controller, and playing it with your profile on a secondary one. I'm interested to know if that works, it' comes from general idea of how things work based on dribs and drabs I've read.

Well, Mrs. Feek and I watched 300 last night - It was OK, not a great film but it killed a couple of hours for us.

Not sure it was a good HD test, I really didn't think it looked any better than anything else I've seen. Maybe it's not a good choice in film to showcase HD?

No joy

On my US account it comes up as a trial too :/

Daz · 03-01-2008, 16:28

Did you start the game as the foreign account or as your main one?

Haly · 03-01-2008, 16:29

The foreign account. And it's still a trial

Daz · 03-01-2008, 16:32

Gutted. Was hoping there'd be some kind of workaround so if (when?) my 360 dies Dee could still play arcade games bought on my account.

Haly · 03-01-2008, 16:34

I'd stick with the concept of when. I did and it meant I didn't feel quite as annoyed as I could have been.......although I was rather annoyed

I've got about 2200 points at the moment, just annoying I have to buy something I used to have for free.
