This sucks man...i hope you find a way to repair it.
That's why i'm always very skeptical when it comes to buy a ms product.

yeah it does suck....i haven't contacted them yet but i guess the worst they can do is say no

I don't think I'll have time for Bioshock. Plus I found out today that Mass Effect for Xbox 360 got moved up two months to November! I believe it will be November 20th the same day that Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings comes out for Nintendo DS. During that day I'll still probably be playing Lost Odyssey for Xbox 360 which probably comes out on Oct 30th(confirmed for Oct). Oct 1st I'm getting The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for Nintendo DS. August 28th I'm getting Blue Dragon for Xbox 360. So many games!

Here's my ranking of interest...
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings for Nintendo DS
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass for Nintendo DS
Lost Odyssey for Xbox 360
Blue Dragon for Xbox 360
Mass Effect for Xbox 360

FF XII: RW and Zelda are both super ultimate and definete buys for me and FF XII: RW only barely edges out Zelda on my priority. Lost Odyssey is a step down from those two. Blue Dragon is basically two steps down from Lost Odyssey. Mass Effect is basically two steps down from Blue Dragon.

So basically it would be something like this...
FF XII: RW - 10
Zelda: PH - 10
Lost Odyssey - 9
Blue Dragon - 7.5
Mass Effect - 6.5

This is great! :)

I'm bumping this up since we are closer to purchase time. I'll rent both but probably won't buy or beat either one.

I'm playing FF XII and I'll beat it this fall along with Alundra 1, Lost Odyssey, and Mass Effect(probably) by the way.

If I had a 360 I'd be eating these both up.

Bioshock looks a little freaky to me and doesnt really pique my interest too much. But nevertheless when something is hyped up this much and has got as many positive reviews as BS then it's a definate must have.

As for Blue Dragon...i'm a big fan of Sakaguchi-san's work so i have faith that he'll make it a great debut for his new company!

Bioshock. But not until the 24th, seeing as they are Britain-hating communists. No real interest in Blue Dragon.

Neither because I don't have an XBox or 360.

I have played the demo for both, and to me, Bioshock is the clear winner of the two. The atmosphere created by the environment really gets into your head. Not too mention a Big Daddy named Mr. Bubbles. Clearly any game with a hulking behemoth, who has a drill for an arm, and goes by the name of Mr. Bubbles is a winner in my book. Plus I thought the Blue Dragon demo was kind of boring imho.

I'm getting excited, and as I said I'll rent both using Gamerang.com. Currently I'm playing Persona 3 and it is good but not super ultimate, it's about as good as Rogue Galaxy(played 13 hours only) but I'm only an hour into Persona 3 so far. I'll play it more later. What websites show video game sales chart, like boxofficemojo.com does?

Have y'all seen the Bioshock review scores? I mean, this isn't in "Hey, that's a pretty neat game" territory; it's not even in "Whoa, this is pretty awesome, you should probably get it" territory. Nope, it currently appears to be in "Holy crap this game might just knock OoT off of the highest rated game ever pedastal" territory.

I've noticed this as well, and I just created a thread based on that specific topic. Please post on it.

Gah! It comes out at midnite tonight! Do you think if I show up in line I can pick up a copy of the Xbox 360 collectors edition? What about the regular edition? I haven't pre-ordered any version of this game. The EB Games and Gamestop are both nearby me and probably will be open at midnite to sell this game. I wonder if I should get it.

Eh, I'm very interested in this game but I don't think so. I'll rent it but probably won't beat it or buy it. This is because it's a first person shooter with rpg elements and I don't like first person shooters. What do you guys think? :)
