i was looking at the $74 forza 5/Motorsport bundle and went back to the home screen a minute later I went to my queue and saw that he games were downloading. I am no rookie to XBL and know when I've confirmed a purchase or not. Has anyone ever had something like this happen? Is there anything I can do about his? I know the terms and conditions say all sales are final, but I didn't agree to it and it wasn't like someone else touched the system and purchased it.

I preordered rogue legacy before release and have been playing it on my PS4. However, I now want to put it on my vita, but when I pull it up on the vita store, there is no download selection. I'm not saying that the selection is grayed out, says it was already downloaded, or anything like that. I'm saying here is no box at all that normally appears for every other item on the playstationn store which gives you download/purchase options. Any idea what is causinf this and how to fix it

(and yes, I turned my system off..for a few days.. And came back and tried it again)

I recently purchased FFIII on eBay and the cart is in great cosmetic condition. The pins also look very clean. I put it in my SNES and everything worked fine until about the third battle. At that point it would present some graphical issues with the enemy sprites and then freeze after the battle. I tried it a few more time and got the same issue. I've had similar issues with some , but not every, other, less expensive games but assumed it was an issue with those carts. I cleaned my pins very well with the official SNES cleaning kit, but noticed some of the pins didn't look perfectly aligned. I then figured if replace the pin connector with one from an old SNES whose motherboard died. The newly replaced pin connector looked to be in perfect condition. I reassembled the system and put in FFIII but encountered the same issue two more times. Any suggestions on what the issue may be or the next step in troubleshooting? I'm not opposed to buying a new SNES (of course would prefer not to) but I'm not sure if the issue is with the system or the game. If it is the game, I'd want to touch base with the seller ASAP to see if I could return it. Thanks!

Ok, so I'm going to upgrade to scat cables so everything plays more nicely with the xrgb I mini. However as I look through ebay, I see a number of cables that aren't clearly marked as Japanese or euro. Is there an easy way to tell, such as 20pins vs 21pins?

I recently took the plunge and bought an XRGB-mini so that my retro consoles looked decent on my plasma (No, I do not want to sit a CRT next to my main gaming TV), but I must say that I don't notice a big difference. The picture looks slightly better on a US SNES outputting through S-video, but I notice virtually no difference on my Genesis outputting via composite. Is this because I'm not using a better output such as SCART or am I "just doing it wrong? If it is the cable, any suggestions on how to address this since I have all US systems (I'd prefer not to mod them)?

Also, the colors are all wonky (pulsating and completely inaccurate) on my 32x. Again, my genesis looks fine just not better with the XRGB Mini, but the 32x is unplayable.

Semi-related question. Is metal steel game case for the PS3 version the size of a DVD case or a blu ray case?

why would you ever buy wireless... unless you are a casual.

If I weren't to use a wireless setup given my configuration, what would you suggest?
