well as you may have guessed ive just finaly got my hands on a hd-dvd drive add on for the 360.

i purchased one from a seller on ebay and waited for over 70 days to get nothing infact im still waiting for a refund from that person so i may never get it!!

but anyway i finaly got one through the door from gamestation here in the uk via its online store.so as you can imagine i was pretty hyped for  it and to get it hooked up to my tv and start viewing some discs ive had now for months,so i put it all togther linking this cable to there and so on.then i turned on the power booted up the dics that came with it and NOTHING!!!!!!!

they sent me a faulty drive!!!!! :( so then i had to make my way into the city to the store they have there and exchange it for a different one,one that hopefuly works.besides all this i thought  the whole thing about buying online is to have the added convienience of not having to trapse all over town since it gets safely delivered to your door?? i guess not!

so after all this i finaly get home  get the new machine linked up again with cables from here to there, instruction manuals lying all over the place and boxes too.so afterwards i put in a few hd-dvd's and start watching a few flicks then its van helsings go and guess what. NOTHING!!!!!!!

but all ends well since i looked it up on the net and found that its a common problem with that particular disc and i needed a further update aside from the one i already got with the hd-dvd in the form of a boot up disc i mentioned earlier.when the update was applied it worked fine but i could'nt help but think if i did'nt have the web or broadband it would have been cash down the pan,so if your reading this and have the same problems you know what to do!

all this in one day is too much for me:P
