It's the Tircle of death!!!

Just in case you guys didn't know what I was talking about. Here is what Dren has now dubbed "The Tircle". I must confess, the name kinda stuck because that's what I am calling it now. hehehe

The Tircle- is it a triangle or a circle??

Yeah, I found time for this...

Check out my Gamer Card on the right, I'm thinking of converting everybody's link to a card like this, just didn't have time to do any more this morning.

I'm still very tired from kicking Venom's butt last night...

UPDATE:

Had a little time to work on this today, and Venom has been helping as well (He converted everyones name to the cards at the right).

Removed Texan Husker as we never hear from her, and she does not answer e-mails. Removed Team Nitro as they let their Live! stuff go and haven't been heard from in a long, long time.

Has anyone heard from Gotten Flame? He does not show to have a 360.

Is anyone missing from the list at the right?

New XBOX Gamer Blog

Found this at the XBOX.COM site this AM. So now when I'm busy kicking Venom's ass, you can see the details here:

It's midnight...

My eyeballs hurt...

My hands are aching from gripping the controller too hard...

I'll probably be too tired to be useful at work tomorrow morning...

And I'm not going to get enough sleep tonight, I still have chores that have been neglected...

BUT I BEAT VENOM'S HIGH SCORE ON HEXIC - MARATHON MODE!

Can't download Uno

Has anyone else had an issue downloading UNO? I've been trying for two days, it gets to 68% and stops. Called XBOX 360 support, they want me to rewire my entire network.

Yet, I downloaded a ton of updates for Ridge Racer 6, the Astro Pop demo and a Nacho Libre trailer without issue.

My router, a D-Link DI-604 is XBOX Live approved. The support at Microsoft sucks.

Xbox 360 Headset Adapter

Here is the link to the adapter.

That Was Lame...

Checked out the owner's book for Burnout Revenge today, and it had a code on the back for registering the game, and they would send a Hint or Cheat.

Here is the free Hint:

Heavy cars Best at smashing through traffic, but slower with less Aftertouch responsiveness – but are less affected by wind. They have the most powerful Crashbreakers.

Medium cars Good all-rounders with balanced weight, speed and Crashbreakers that promise decent crash performances.

Light cars Quick, agile and jump well but lack power in impacts and Crashbreakers. Aftertouch skills are tested when jumping in strong winds.

Yeah, something that is already in the book, and blatently obvious is the "Free Hint".

Guess I won't be bothering to register any more of their games.

Useful 360 Site

I think this site is sponsored by Targert, but it has ton of resources on XBOX 360 games, including a walk-through strategy guide for Call Of Duty 2. It is easy to navigte and quite useful

Lady, Titan, and the rest of you guys better start saving your money now, I'm gonna whip all of you at Beach Volleyball and Jet Ski Racing!



Update:

Venom told me last night there was a trailer as well for this game that can be downloaded in Marketplace. So I downloaded it. Man, this thing is awesome looking. And they have made a major advancement in the physics engine that might be lost on folks who are not fans of the series: Independant Breast Movement (IBM?) - It used to be that both breasts just bounced up and down, in sync with each other. However, it the trailer, especially when they run, both brests move independtly, and quite realistically from what I remember of my last trip to the beach.

I give you The Bird

Ladies and Gentlemen...

Bird!

This video is not for the faint of heart, or the squeamish, but it looks like Full Auto in real life.
