That may be difficult as Steam Trades is the only legitimate site I know of (and SC2 is not available on it). You could PM me and I could send you a list of games I have that are tradable (since trading here is not allowed). You could put the coupons on sale on Ebay and once you get the money, just turn around and buy SC2 yourself.

Should be able to. If the key is able to activate on Steam, I would be willing to trade it for something if you were interested in that at all. You could choose a certain game on Steam and I can gift it to you in return for the Borderlands 2 key. I wanted to play it but I don't buy games when they are this expensive.

Is anybody having trouble buying the UFC PPV on their 360 it wont let me for some reason.

violentken88

I will say what I think about this issue. As of now you cannot purchase UFC 141 on XBOX Live. UFC 141 is most likely a trial run for the UFC on XBOX Live app. They gave out 25,000 free "PPV seats" to be watched on LIVE (like guinea pigs) and I do not think you will be able to purchase UFC 141 since it will most likely be pretty rough (like the audio issues they had for the pre-fight press conference on Wednesday and the issues show with the weigh-ins yesterday.) After UFC 141 all the kinks should be worked out so they can start charging. It remains to be seen if they will open UFC 141 for purchase but I would guess that they won't because of quality assurance. (Can't refund people that didn't pay anything)....

For being on gaming forums you guys must not read a lot of gaming news outside of gamespot....there already IS a game that incorporates the death of Bin Laden called "Kuma War" and the episode is called "The Death of Osama Bin Laden" and it was made in 4 days after Bin Laden was killed.

I'll be honest, I get frame rate dips and screen tearing on games when reviews and reviewers never say anything about it. I have one of the best tv's around as well. It's frustrating but you're 360 is not breaking.

hey everybody i hope this isnt a stupid question but does anyone know if theres a i guess sleep mode for the xbox? you know how you can set it to turn off after a certain amount of time. I like to watch tv when i go to sleep but i have no cable in my room and use netflix. But I dont want to fall asleep with my xbox running all night. Anyone know?

It's not a stupid question to me. I am exactly like you and unfortunately the 360 does not have a sleep mode. My PS3 which I mainly use because of smalls things like this, does have it however.

Picked up RDR and Alan Wake today. As I'm typing, I'm playing Alan Wake. Recently there was talk that Alan Wake wasn't 720p. Remedy has claimed that it is 720p. I'm playing AW right now and it's clear that it's lower than 720p resolution. Character models and facial models are top-notch during cutscenes.. but in-game.. it doesn't look at all impressive. Environments have jaggies all over. Most noticeable are pieces of wood that are extremely low res. Just think back to some of the levels in Halo 3, but sometimes worse. I know gameplay is more important, but graphics are just important nowadays. And they need to match the quality of gameplay.

It's funny how Alan Wake looked amazing in trailers, gameplay videos, screenshots but it's barely next-gen.. when RDR which didn't look so good in videos and screens, turned out looking amazing. I just didn't think I would be bothered by it.. but I kinda am.. after waiting over 3 years for this game. It's very disappointing to see the least, but what can you do?

After thinking back on reviews.. they're pretty spot on. 8.5 is pretty accurate.. and I've one of the avid fanboys that really wanted this game to score well. I have to say, Alan Wake fan or not.. it's a pretty spot on score.

I guess I'm spoiled by Gears of War series, Uncharted 2, and RDR.

I am playing the game right now and the actual game, presentation, voice acting, story are all exceptional. Really really entertaining and cool stuff. However, the fog looks disgustingly compressed and overall pretty nasty. The cut scenes look to be blurry and compressed as well. Kind of a shame but I will try to not have it ruin the experience.
