I bought a play and charge kit around boxing day, and I'm having issues with it now.

The rechargeable battery that came with it seems to be stuck on 'almost empty'. Anytime I go to use the controller wirelessly, the xbox button thing on the controller flashes to indicate I have low battery, and hitting the button shows the battery as having only one bar left.

If I go ahead and plug the battery in with the play and charge kit, the low battery indicator stops, but I don't see the red 'charging' light (or a green light, for that matter). And with it plugged in I can use the controller without issue, but it won't charge. So its basically turned my once-wireless controller into a wired one when using the rechargeable battery.

Has anyone else had this issue? Or know a possible fix? Or am I basically screwed, and need to go buy a new kit.

Thanks

I bought a 1400 Microsoft Points card on the 26th, and every time I try and redeem it on xbox.com I get the message "Xbox LIVE Marketplace is currently not available" after I put in the code and hit Next. If I try and redeem the points through the 360 itself it says the code is invalid.

Anyone else having this issue?

Bestbuy (at least here in Canada) has the first Gears of War on for $20 for boxing day. Is it still worth it to get the first one with Gears 2 out? Is there much of an online community left?

Thanks

The real COD5, Halo ODST, Dragon Age, The Witcher and Final Fantasy XIII if it actually comes out next year.

I Am Legend is a summer action movie starring Will Smith.

A solid plot is not to be expected.

Hell Yes. Waffles are awesome

Man, I want that game.

If only I had a PS3.
