Same thing happened with some unlocks I got in a match recently.

Today I unlocked a weapon attachment, got to play a match with it only to return and have it be locked again? The unlock appears in my battlefeed but not on my battlenet page.

Anyone else experience this?

The main problem with a MS handheld is the fact that:

1. They're late to the party. They would be the third different handheld in the market and if Sony has taught us anything the market can barely sustain two handhelds much less a third.

2. They're probably going to be extremely hesitant after the whole Zune disaster.

While I would like to see an MS handheld at some point the market is simply DOMINATED by Nintendo and its products. Even if you release a superior technical product there consumers might not be willing to embrace it as some people feel the Zune is technically superior to the iPod in many ways but who actually knows anyone who owns one as opposed to the iPod?

[QUOTE="laughlyn12"][QUOTE="argh682"]

so recently I've been informed by my friend having your 360 vertically inclined will damage your games and you're supposed to have it sideways now I've had my 360 about 3 months and I play pretty often and not once has having it upright damaged a game so I have to ask if it can really damage it?

argh682

That's the rumor... I've had my 360 for more than 2 years and the whole time it has been upright and I have yet to have any problems. From what I understand the vertical position is only a problem if your 360 isn't completely level... if it leans even the slightest little bit that could cause a problem but seeing as how my house is level I've been fine.

well then suffice to say I'm keeping mine upright I just like that look better and I just find switching discs easier pretty sure my house is level due to the lack of damage thanks for the info

And remember... anyone who tells you that you could knock your 360 over probably isn't as careful around a $300 piece equipment as they should be. The only thing in my house that gets knocked over regularly are empty Coke cans when the dog wags his tail. My 360 is firmly placed on my TV stand next to my TV so as long as nothing knocks my TV over I'm fine.

I want to see more good exclusives that are not online-multiplayer shooters and rpgs!nelfer320
The days of the 3rd party exclusive are pretty much over with and I don't know how quickly MS can turn around its first party titles. Fable just came out and there's no Halo in the works (that we know of at least) so I'm not sure exclusives are really the future of gaming... at least until they start coming up with new IP's instead of just rehashing old ones.

Personally, I want to see two things:

1. Original Ideas. No Mii ripoffs. No home ripoff. Come up with your own ideas for Christ's sake.

2. Original Titles. Yes, I know we live in a world of franchises but just once I want the big news coming out of E3 to not be some title that already exists with just a bigger number behind it than the year before.

Honorable Mention: Free multiplayer with Xbox Live Silver.

Halo 3.

It had a Mountain Dew flavor, the first commercial premiered during Monday Night Football, the game was sold at convenience stores all of which are pretty much unprecidented.

Worst of all was the reaction when the multi-player beta launch was delayed by a few hours... the amount of coverage and hysteria around a few hour delay was insane.

Here are some easy to follow instructions to hook this up. I finally found ones that I could understand on the interwebs.

or

I went with the first one and my 360 is now connected to the internet through my desktop computer and I saved $100! Sweet!

Thanks to everyone who helped!

Our router is in another room all together. If I was going to wire it to the router I would need about 60 feet of ethernet cable... not to mention the number of times that I would trip over the cord in the middle of the night on my way to the bathroom.
