itsa burfffdaye!
I love that game it rocks. But my xbox 360 wont read it anymore and its brand new! ANy help?
It's not that the 360 does not have more potiential, it just that if we squeeze anymore of it out, everyone's 360s will die :P
Motorstorm is the best PS3 games will get. Developers aren't going to spend any money on the failing platform.
what kind of a Tw@ are you?
OK can people just think about this logically without ranting. If the 360 has this many problems, which for some reason haven't been fixed yet (maybe microsoft is redesigning hopefully) then there will come a point where game devlopers will have to begin puttin less detail into 360 games, as high graphic demand overheats the GPU.
So the PS3 because it has sufficient cooling will be able to cope with high end graphics whereas the 360 design wont allow it to. Both console theoretically should be able to cope with high graphic games but because of the design of the 360 this just wouldn't be possible due to the overheating GPU. Unless Microsoft do something about the cooling then the developers will have to start dumbing down the graphics.
And yes I do own a PS3 at the moment, and I am buying a 360 because my friends have them but I am taking every precaution I am buying the intercooler and the 3 year extended warranty.
Sorry I just immitate a typical PS3 fantard from time to time.
tw@ XD
maybe Microsoft should just mount it with thicker pins or switch to 65nm chips and rearrange the motherboard. I can't believe that they still haven't done anything.
The new 65nm chips were supposed to make it to production in the first quarter of this year. That's why I was kind of suprised the elite model didn't have them.
I'm not sure what is causing the delay, wether there's problems making the chips, or they are redesigning the whole console, or they were busy designing the new GPU heatsink to fix the old versions. I think there will be a permanent fix soon, there has to be.
I'm pretty confident I got a reliable system but I may get an elite model when the new chips come out and relaibiltiy is improved. I don't think the PS3 will have any decent games by that time so why would I bother with that POS? I think the Wii fad will wear off soon and I don't think it's worth its price anyway.
You lack what your name implies. Keep defending what you admit is a garbage product. We don't need your opinions. The fact, as it stands, is that MS has ignored a problem and couldn't even integrate into their new console.
PS3 will gain ground, just accept it and get a life other than this forum.
i have 2 consoles and 2 forza2, no issue here at all. i've played the game for hours. during one session the machines were on for around 8 hours non stop (taking lenghty breaks in between without turning off the game and consoles).
8 hours non stop gaming? the 360 will overheat first than finding if the game crash or not lol
I've never had any freeze ups with Forza yet. I don't know how these reports get started or who starts them.
I played Forza with system link between 2 consoles for nearly 8 hours with a group of friends and neither overheated. If this Someone_PR dumbass had a 360 he would realize that.
ahhh...like i said, my systems works fine. i have an elite and a core system. i dont even use 3rd party fans. i just have my 360s on top of my desk with my lcd monitors and tv. so it gets good ventilation. i also know people that played tenchu z for 12 hours.
its not imposiible, its just good system setup and usage. i don't abuse my equipments.
I have played Forza 2 for hours on end and have not had my console glitch once. I have had my 360 since Feb of 2006 and it has only freezed up twice (playing Full Auto online) since I have had it and if you want to know how much it is used I have a gamerscore over 33000 (thats a lot of playing). It is funny though that I cant even get through a full race on Motorstorm on my friends PS3 without it locking up everytime. By the way my XBOX 360 sits inside my closet next to my DVR, Wii, DVD player, TV, and PC, which my room is never under 80 degrees (still does not glitch).
I played Oblivion one time for like 15 or 16 hours straight. I didn't take breaks or stop. I started like 3 one afternoon and stopped like 10 am the next morning. I got the red ring of death. My system just switched off. I read on a repair site not affiliated with Microsoft that my problem was due to overheating. I let it sit for about 8 hours while I slept, turned it back on, and played for another 8 hours with no problem. But I've never tried Forza. The website insisted that by turning your system from it's side to vertical will help it ventilate better and could pro long the life of your 360. Hope this helps.
You don't get the Red Ring of Death for extended periods of time. The ring blinks red to inform that the system is too hot.
My freezes a lot randomly. I have my powerbrick on two peice of granite stone and I have a fan blowing on my 360. Yet i still get random crashes. It always happens right after I finish a race and before it saves. Then ihave to do the race all over again. It must suck for the people that have been making cars and it crashes in the middle of making one. I wouldbe pissed. I hope this gets resolved fast. Its starting to piss me off.
8 hours is bull. It wil overheat easily.
You really sound as a hired PS3 Fanboy who is trying to act like someone with a problem so you give the xbox360 a bad image. Just got the feeling with your text!
I'm not a fanboy of 360,wii or ps3, just someone who thinks someone, so don't give me comments on that people ;)
just because my setup works, you say its bull. i have co-workers that has the game and it also has not frozen on them at all.
its unfortunate that you are having issues. now my 360s are both manufactured 2007, my friends are 2006. just curious what year is your manufactured.
Just shows you how *****ty the *****box 360 is... the sell you a pieace of ***** unit or a game that make you *****ty unit go into a trash can... You all should have gotten a PS3 its more durable and hell of a better system so all you xbox fanboys like sucking microshafts *****. So i must add the PS3 is for the win Xbox sucks ***** and is a *****ty ass system do use all a favor and buy an awesome system. PS3 FTW!!!
Yeah right...i have friends with ps3 bricking the first time they turned it on. also they hardly use the damn ps3 ad they enjoy playing the 360 more.
lets face it, while you make up stories of how bad the 360 is, we will keep on playing games.
while ridiculous fandboys like you sour grapes at the fact that there is no real good game on the ps3, and no "resistance" is not a good game and neither is motorstorm. i've played them both.
no i'm not a 360 fanboy. i have ps1, ps2, psp. i just realized how sony screws its customer by lying all the time about hardware specs and game titles. i was a longtime playstation gamer and had enough of sony promises that never materialize.
so what are you playing now? some old ps2 game on your ps3?.
you sound like an angry ps3 fanboy that should be complaining about how inadequate your ps3 is to sony. also, it looks to me you are bending over for sony as you bought a machine that was designed 3 years ago that had all kinds of promise and ending up being less than half of the design. someone's behind must be red and sore.
by the way, i bought the best system and its the 360. a sytem is not just about hardware, its about infastructure. unless you are not old enough to understand that.
Hey ass clown stop using my name. Just because you cant think of your own. Wow some of you people are really sad.
RE: Killfox - you either sound like a mega PS3 fanboy or are some kind of psyco > most of the time, PS3 fanboys are both.
Funny thing is though. I dont even own a PS3. I got my 360 at launch. I was the second person to get mine. Dont be fooled by that crazy kid that is swearing a lot. Thats not me. Why would I even want a PS3. There are no game I want. PC gamer for life.
I was trolling looking for bashing articles and Jackpot!
Wow that's crap!
M$ is crap. It's their consoles, they all break. Buy a PS3 instead. It's a "total entertainment system." Unless of course you plan on playing games on it.
That's my dumbass comment for the day.
ur actually taking time out of ur life to do these posts??? i don't even care about u!!!
the XBox 360 is a piece of crap!!! it's cheap and u all are too stupid to even realize that!!!
and yes the PS3 is a total entertainment system... thanks for putting it in... btw, sarcasm just doesn't work that well anymore, get some new material.
The PS3 is a total entertainment system? Can it get you laid? Because you need to.
so do you, mr common sense. I read about 30 comments down the page, and you've posted at least 5 times. Can't stand to hear any bad news about your precious Xbox can you?
How hard is it to type with Microsoft's c0ck in your mouth?
Yeah um im not lying out my ass. What I said is for real. Everytime I play it. I atleast have to restart my 360 twice before stops freezing. You can think that im some PS3 fanboy that is just bashing 360. I dont care. But this is the truth. Plus my main system isnt even 360. Im a hardcore PC gamer.

Check out my games yoh.
MS were very smart at making sure all warranty issues came back through them, rather than bothering retailers. They knew the 360 was faulty when they made it.
But this is what you do if you have problem, DO NOT ring up MS, take it back to retailer and demand a refund. They will not want to do this but it is well within your consumer rights. Go and pick up another 360 at a different retailer, till you get one that works.
MS may not want to listen to we the consumers, but they will sure listen if retailers stop stocking 360s on their shelves.
I bought Forza 2, it ask me to update the game, so I did and when it reboot, I got the rings of death. I called Microsoft and they said that my warranty had been expired and had to pay. This was 2 weeks ago and I still cant get my xbox360 back. I was told I had to wait 7 working days to get my system but no luck. As much as I liked microsoft, I am starting to dislike them as something very similar happen in the past with the game crackdown. Did anyone experienced the same issues?
yurrrp
Ok this is a question about the repairs for 360 and ps3, I want to know when they send back your console is it a new one? cause I been hearing that ppl got brand new consoles when they got their repairs back
They send back your same console. If you have the 3RL error it usually has a new motherboard.
jus out of curiosity....how do u no so much?
u claim to still hav ur 1st 360.........?
I've been reading a lot on the subject. The only 3RL error I'm personally aware of is my friend's. All he had to do was return it to the store.
I take care of my console, and I added an XCM fan upgrade. I like the temp gauge, and it has greater CFM.
The internet is full of information!
you lot have gone mad, xbox has scratched my disc, cant play forza any more keeps crashing, and freezing, at any random moment, xbox is a good machine and so is this the ps3, but whose to say when the ps3 gets as old as the 360 we will be hearing the same storys, new games pushing the ps3 to screw-up
it maybe true that the PS3 could experience the same problems but then again there is still the chance that it dosen't but anyways they could always fix it one way or another...major call backs or an update to fix this problem
Leave the real games to PS3...... Apparently the 360 has a hard time of running top of the line graphics .
LoL 360 powned again
.....Mister Common sense rumoured to propose to his beloved (dead?)Xbox 360.....

in a nutshell, fill out surveys and get money for doing so....to protect ur privacy:
-make a private internet phoneline on www.privatephone.com so u wont get calls from telemarketers
-make a separate email address for spam, because thats pretty much all you'll be getting
-if u wanna make even more money, buy a visa gift card so u can fill out the surveys/complete offers that require u to put in credit information. These offers payout more cash to u.
Also, u can refer ppl to this site...and if the ppl u refer continue to fill out surveys, u can make %20 of wat they make (and no, they dont lose cash because of you, u are just making an extra %20) and u can make %10 of who they refer.
give it a try because honestly, its fool proof and theres nothin to lose. Just use the link i provided and give it a try

Forza is a horrible game i liked Burnout better but even this game is killing systems, WTF? is this crap seriously just beacuase it isnt that much of a trend to hate on x360 as a much as it is to hate on PS3. people all over the web would be all over this.
You're all being led down the money road by ms. They should of fixed this crap with the Elite. I own a PS3 and it'll last me way past MS's NEWER console they will have to make soon, because all their old one's died. Have fun fanboys supporting a company that's costing you online and console repairs. One japanese guy is smarter then probably half the stalf at MS. haha PS3>XREDdeath
the death my of 3 red ring 360 so i have to buy another 360! and now get big fan on the side to keep it cool i hope that last for 2.000 year ha-ha
hey u all have to except it..no 1 cares for graphics.all people wants is to have good games on a system weither its ps3 or xbox360 like xbox 1 had better graphics than ps2 but even then people loved to buy ps2 coz it had more titles..everyone saying..ps3 have more potential and cell processor is a beast..i agree...BUT a system potential depends upon how they program the game..for example.gow is known as the best graphics ever made its on 360..so they used well the xbox capabilities to make gears of war..Potential depends upon the programing of the game on the system....CELL processor is a beast,,,its of no use cause they cant use its capabilities coz its hard to program..thats y xbox and wii is outselling ps3
does every thread end in fanboys fighting each other. THe site is for 360 enthusiasts. I have a friend who has a ps3 and doesnt play it at all, he prefers the 360. On the other hand my 360 has had the 3 red lights once, i sent it away, got it back a week later and it has been great since. The post is about forza causing bugs. I have had the problem of people joining my rooms ALOT, i have open NAT and have all ports forwarded, have a fast internet connection etc and still some people cant join my rooms. THere definately needs to be a patch of some sort.
My 2nd 360 just died on me a few days ago and while it did not die on me right away (it started freezing while in games before it got 3ROD), problems did start while I was playing Forza2.
Do I think that the Xbox 360 design sucks? Yes, there is definitely something wrong with MS's quality control or design. But that is no denying the quality of games on the console.
My xbox hasn't died but I have noticed since I got Forza the day after it came out that there are some problems. I've had it say the disc was unreadable but then be ok. I had xbox live voice not work in a game but I could send messages to friends with the mic. I've been sent to a live race with no body else in it after a race was finished. I've had problems logging on to a friends game. I've tried to make a game and nothing happens, it just loads for like 5 minutes then says one guy was racing by himself. I hope my machine doesn't die cause I've had it happen before with the 360 and it sucks plus I love Forza.
I don't have a lot of time that I can spend playing Forza 2 and it still crashes. The first day I got it the thing crashed on the first screen. Even last night I was playing for less than 20 min and it froze right at the end of a race. So I loaded it back up and had to race the track all over. Now this was a simple race say 5 laps, but still a pain. The issue happened when watching the replay. The streets looked like the clowds or the grass did as soon as I noticed this I knew it was going to crash. This is not the first time I have seen this one of the times it happened while I was driving. The streets turned to clowds...
They need to fix this I am very concerned that my xbox 360 will end up being a coaster.
I am not a ps3 fan either I played GTHD, and although the graphics are amazing (way better than forza 2) the driving sucked. It was not a simulator by any means and nothing compares to Forza 2 when its working...
