This idea sucks big time.

If your going to lock out part of a game from me just because I bought it for $90 used instead of that oh so generous $110 (Australian) you can shove it up your WOAH! I don't know who sets the prices, but they should be forced to set prices according to the product. You want to increase more game sales, do something that doesn't hurt the consumer but rewards them. You're wanna sell a crap load of horse armour dlc and 3 map packs a month? Give a code to the people who bought the game new to get the first 3, or if you aren't are a saint, all that dlc free.

Also, that $110 is what EB Games (Our Gamestop) sells new games at. Sometimes Kmart or Target give us a speacial deal of $80. For two days. Then back to $100. Yay. Make your games worth that money. I know there are some gems out there that are sadly overlooked, but do devs really expect to sell Bionic Commando for that much? Come on, you know it won't sell because its short, there's nothing to keep you going back and it sucks. Drop the price down sooner if you want to sell it.

ALSO! Raise more awareness for your extreme sadness to the average consumer. Even if you put a giant sticker on the front saying, "Please support the game buy buying new, you get....". No one I know knows that it's affecting you. When you do stuff like this, expect them to start thinking you're greedy once that message pops up asking for a code when they hit the multiplayer button. Waaaaaaaaaaaaateva.

[QUOTE="TheChosenTurkey"]The reason you guys aren't getting this is because you think that the 480 is getting stretched on you massive 50 inch 1080 tvs. All Sony and Micro have to do is heavily market small 480 tvs and make it the norm again around the world. Bam, no stretch and games aren't blurry. If we consider how far people will be from these tvs, the games would look like real life photos.lightleggy

This guy is correct... I'm throwing my 50 inch TV out the window right now as I type this.

Can't wait for those small 480p tvs to come out so I can upgrade:|

There are mobile phones that have a 480p screen. You want TVs that small to be the norm?

Ah, thanks mate, now I can game at ease.

Yeah, when you Nat isn't open, you can't join some games or communicate with certain users.

I've been playing with the xbox Ip's on DMZ, but would just really like some conformation on the safety of this. Should I post this in Pc General?

Thanks in advance guys.

Hey guys.

So I've recently ran into my 360 getting moderate Nat but was able to bridge a connection between my pc and 360. My pc connects via a usb wireless sucking thing (Dunno what it's called) to my router. I was still getting moderate Nat but was able to open it by putting the xbox's ip on DMZ.

Is this safe? I've put a manual Ip on the xbox and the pc (According to ipconfig) has a different ip from the 360's, I'm just wondering, since this is a bridged connnection, if my pc is safe. Apparently putting an Ip on DMZ opens it up to the bad guys.

Thanks for the help guys.

Ha TC, that's pretty harsh.

Ahh, it's not like I know you guys anyway.

I was 6, and just starting my1st-2nd week in school. IHad KFC the night before and could feel a nuke commencing to launch. We were doing finger painting or something when I was ready to blow. I fart andeveryone looks at me.I put my super serious poker face on. The teacher asks me if I need to go but I'm shy,refuse the offer and deny that it was me. Halfway though class I'm all sweaty, concentrating hard, ready for lunch.Then, one of my classmates tackles/pushes me to the ground for whatever reason.

The volcano erupts. I'm crying as I sit on my mudpie. The teacher tries to help me but I cry some more. I head out the door to escape, my track suit pants fall from the weight of the monster, I trip because my pants are down to my ankles androll down the stairs with brown stuff flying everywhere. I cry some more. As the teacher tries to help me up, I feel another avalanche coming and blast it out while in a sideways sleep postion and cry like never before.

Needless to say, I refused to go to school and hadmy parents put me in another one.

Okay, went for a Billion BiPAC 3011N Draft 802.11n Wireless USB Adapter for an extre $5.

Haha, so I'm basically ready to order now right? Many thanks to all the people who've helped me in this thread, couldn't have done it without yous and you've made it much more cheaper.

Can't wait to finally build this. :P

Again, thanks.
