View Full Version : So I'm thinking about geting a 360.

Ok, through Club Live (club.live.com) I can get an Xbox 360 pro package for 35,000 tickets. I currently have about 20,000 thanks to a bot. Well, Microsoft has been bot-proofing a few games so I might just have to play manually.

But either way, I'm getting that damn xbox.


Anyway, what I wanted to ask was if any of you guys know about modding xboxes. If anyone could give me any cool ideas for a girly 360 that I can play Call of Duty on. :awesome:

Also, any tips on what kind of games to get when I get it would be cool, since I know nothing about xbox.

(And I know you'll say Halo, but I don't really like it that much so give me war games, action, shooters, whatever.)

Get your hopes up :D

There's not enough points from all of the games added up to get the 360, so quit trying.

You can do a scheme , though, it would take forever.

On the contrary. My thinking was that I have 20,000 now. If they update the puzzles I can keep playing to earn the 360. The thing is I don't know when they update the games. If they ever will.

If not, the zune is cool too. @___@

Yeah, those puzzles aren't going to be updated. There we're three updates (June, end of June, and beggining of July) And the July update added all that anti bot stuff. You could do what I did, though I didn't get a 360 I got some store cred. Return your products to walmart, or get a bunch of flight simulators and take them into gamestop. That's a 70 dollar game brand new iirc.

You're better off getting a zune, they'll probably reset the points again sometime making the 20,000 you were saving for a 360 wasted time.

Well, then I'll get the zune, sell it, and put it towards the 360. I found one on ebay for about $175 minus shipping... so I might do that. :)

Anyway, what good games are there and what kinda modding should I do on it? Jason's going to mod it for me =33333

Modded 360's are banned, though he shouldn't have a problem getting your's banned since it isn't his.

I don't know what you mean. By "modded" I mean... paint job, lights, etc.

I don't mean burned games or anything @___@

Because the shipping is free, try free shipping to Mexico for example. If it gets to your house it'll take 2 years (taking it that someone who's back is a little wet doesn't grab your mail.)

Well, if you do manage to get the xbox, check out decalgirl.com. They have a bunch of skins and cases for the 360.


Is it possible to get a 360 HDD from this club?
And if so, where may I find this bot?

No. All the games added up together beaten all the way is 20,602 tickets. It doesn't go any higher, you can't keep playing the games once you have beaten them all the way. Plus it saves all your games so you can't do that.

Uh, but I keep playing that dictionary one with the chickens and I get tickets.

Got bot to work, edited it so it does loops every 5 seconds :D and has 10,000 loops (so 10,000 x 20) = how many tickets I get :D

Custom water cooling integrated into the unit (using an 80mm radiator and some 1U Apogee GT waterblocks or a custom machined block I'm in the process of designing for the 360 :D. Needs moar machine shop though D=).
Case Window.
LIGHTS! SHINY BLINGY FUCKING LIGHTS!
Moar Case Window.
Custom paint job. Flames are nice.
I've got a fever. And the only cure, IS MOAR WINDOW!

Thanks for the ideas! I want something REAAAAALLY girly though... because shedding fake blood is done better on a very very feminine xbox.

I had actually wanted to paint it a lavender colour... have a flower-shaped window(s), purple lighting... perhaps some FAUX FUR on the base... XD

I need to find some decent decals/stencils though. I want to have a decal of my handle on the side, but I don't know if it's possible. I would also like it as a window, I dunno. If it's even possible XDDDD

Bottom line: it might be the xbox from hell for boys. :)

Cover it with cotton and dye half of it red, then attach a string to one end, and lo and behold - it's a giant, used tampon.

Do something to this accord:

She is perhaps the most frilly thing in any anime series. I guarantee will make your 360 look like a girly girl's dream. Don't use the girl herself, use the background and her color pattern in her clothes.

Why are you trying to win tickets anyway? Chicktionary game is capped at 1000 points.

If GH stands for guitar hero, no thanks XDDD I've been a DDR fan forever and I just don't get Guitar Hero in the slightest.

Grand Theft Auto isn't for me either, but I SOOOO want God of War and Dead Rising.

OH MY GOD do I want Dead Rising. It looked so :awesome:

Also, if Kojima plans on it, MGS4 is a must-have. Resident Evil 5 looked decent... Beautiful Katamari, not so much. It looked exactly like the first Katamari game and that was boring to me. :rolleyes:

I want Viva Pinata too! XDDD

That would 360 would also be impossible since they capped the # of tickets at 31k (someone told me that...) but that would make sense.

And what games? Um...

Though it depends heavily on the structure of the rest of the sentence, there are times in which you can indeed begin a sentence with the word 'though'. 'Although' would probably be a better choice, however, so it's generally only OK to do so when emulating the speech of somebody who is likely to use a lot of colloquial language.

Something like "Though it is a problem, it's not very serious now."

TRY AND COUNTER THAT!

rossmum

'Although' works bettwe when written, but when spoken people do tend to simply shorten it to 'though'.
