Hey how this separate sticky thread for xbox360\xbox .here we can discuss tips/walkthroughs/tweaks/games ?

Here are some tips from about.com

Tips and Tricks for the Xbox Console from Microsoft
Xbox Console Tips and Tricks

Reset parental controls:
Go to "Settings" and highlight the "Parental Control" option. Press X, Y, L, X, at the passcode screen to reset the parental control setting to the default value.

Hidden FMV sequence:
Insert an audio CD. Stop the CD when it begins playing at the CD player screen. Press B, select "Copy", then press A. Use the "Select All" option, then press A. Use the "Copy" option and create a new soundtrack. Enter << Eggsßox >> as a name. Select "Done" and press A to view a hidden "Thank You!" FMV sequence.

Xbox Dashboard - View Music Animations:
Insert a music CD and play it on the music screen. When the music plays, you can see an animation in the jewel (that plays with the music). To make this full screen, press Y then press X. To return to the track selection, press any other button.

Note: You can make the jewel full screen when using the DVD remote by pressing Info.

Xbox Dashboard - Hear voices:
When the dash is started, leave it alone for a short time. The screen will eventually get dark, and you will begin to hear sounds. One of these is an electronic voice.

Playing Burned Music Discs:
Burn music onto a CD-RW (not a CD-R) disc, and close the session when you burn the CD. Place it in your X-Box and rip away.

Note: This also works with .MP3 files. The Xbox can store .MP3s and replay them later and saves a lot of space when compared to the .WAV files that are standard on audio discs.

Xbox Console Name:
Each Xbox console has a "name" assigned to it at the time of manufacture. To view the name of your system, play Halo link it to another Xbox and choose a linked play party. The Xboxs will have names above their symbols in the pre-game stat screen. To change your name, play challenge mode in Dead Or Alive 3. Successfully complete challenge mode and you will be prompted to enter a record name. Enter the name that you wish to change your pre-assigned Xbox name to. This will now be the title your Xbox is referred to during linked play. Note: This will only work one time, so be sure that you enter the name you wish to permanently have for your console.

To see your Xbox name easily, start Halo, go into multi-player mode, choose "Split Screen", "Profile", and "Location". After all that is done, there will be a screen that reads "Waiting for more players". The picture of the Xbox is directly above your profile name, and above your picture will be a word. That word will be used as your name when XBox goes online. This works best when there is only one controller plugged into the Xbox, so the multi-player game will not start before you see your name.

Remember-This is taken from *www.mycheats.com/view/section/2426/2515/halo_3/xbox_360
and that page has videos too which could not be included in the pdf :D

By the way-for those who dont know-u can actually use ur USB pc keyboard with xbox360.just plug it in it and use it for text input like u use xbox messenger kit.

Dec 21, 2007 at 11:01 AM
dude there's no way to play non original discs on a 360 without modding it which is actually illegal and spoils your warranty too.so stop dreamin abt it.wait till original game prices are lowered.and game prices-u shoud have thought abt that before buying the console itself

Edit--U are in bangalore.have u checked seventymm.com?they offer xbox 360 rentals.the legal way.and they have about 40 titles.
Zeeshan Quireshi
Dec 22, 2007 at 4:06 PM
I'd rather pay Rs 999 for an Original game than Pay Rs 199 to these SeventyMM Guys for a measely 4-day Rental .

They should have a gamefly like system , keep a game for as long as you want n then exchange it for another game with a fixed monthly rental .

I'm gonna sign-up for gamefly once i get into Univ . Also , as 5-6 of my frnds have a 360 so everyone has bought 2-3 games and that we i've completed more than 15 360 games and am currently enjoyin godfather .
N
Dec 22, 2007 at 6:07 PM
^ i totally agree.it shud have been longer than that like gamefly.but gamefly isnt available in india.so at lest seventymm is good enough to try the games before buying rather than losing all ur warranties when modding ur console just to play a pirated game.

1)*www.xbox.com/hi-IN/storelocator/ , you'll get the Console at MRP from these stores .

2) No it doesn't , and i haven't seen anyone running a console on a UPS till now :p

3) The official Indian region code is PAL , so all original games in India are PAL.

4)Grey market price is also 15k(in Delhi), nd that too without free games and warranty .

5)Yes , you can buy a VGA HD Cable or a Component HD Cable at any authorised retailer *www.xbox.com/hi-IN/storelocator/

6)Check ou the game prices at htp://www.xbox.com . Xbox Classics cost Rs 999 and Xbox Originals via Xbox Live cost ~Rs 500 .

I recommend that you Buy Burnout Revenge as sson as you get a 360 bcoz this is a must-play game for any 360 owner :D

u mean if i dont have the memory card i cant save the games?
for example if i start nfsmw carrier mode.. once i restart my console i'll have to play all the way from begining?
and buy the way anyone has orange box..
and anyone will be up for exchange (just to play) once i buy the console?

1>please give me the details of a good dealer
Glasgow Computers - Below Planet M at Brigade Road. This guy will give u a good deal on the console also he offers all games at 10% discount on MRP.


2>this is my first console ever this may sound stupid..
since i don have a ups back.. will it hurt the console if the power cut happens?

If u use its better!!!

3>which one to get ntscj or pal? what the dif? both of them are backward compatible right?( i mean i can play xbox's games?)
India comes under PAL, so all consoles sold in India are all PAL consoles so are the games. For PAL consoles u need PAL games unless the game is region free(if u have a game which NTSC buts its region free it will work in a PAL console)


4>whats the price in grey market bangalore?
No idea!!
XBox 360 has a lot hardware issues (the average worldwide hardware failure rate for 360 is 20-25%), so because of this u really need the warranty. There is a one year full warranty & extra 3 years for RRoD (Red Ring of Death) failures. google RRoD for more details.

5>do i get vga av cable in bangalore? where?
Get it from Play-Asia, its available for around Rs.360 with free shipping!!! Go to the site & search for it, the quality is good, I am using it already!!!

6>what is the cost of orange box? i'll get old games for cheap right?
Orange Box (PC) is Rs.999 Xbox360 is Rs.1999

Well Xbox 360 Premium comes with 20 GB HDD n 4 Games and HD Component Cable , pretty much infinite space ot save your games :)

Yup , i'll be there to xchange games if you do buy a 360.

Dude, the guy from Glasgow is a nice guy, talk to him nicely & i think he should agree for the 3K advance. I didnt pay any advance when I booked my Xbox 360 Halo Edition from him although initially he was asking for a advance of 5K.

Dude, can u please ask him (the glasgow guy) when exactly Guitar Hero 3 for Xbox 360 is coming & what will be the price!!! I am not in bangalore right now so i am asking u!!! Thanks!

Zeeshan Quireshi
Dec 25, 2007 at 6:22 PM
I've tried it , but it gets irritating after some time , with no restart and other things(and no crashbreaker too)(i played it on 17th , couldn't download on 13th as net was busy with other downloads)
N
Dec 25, 2007 at 6:58 PM
no restart?damn..!
maybe these features will be in the release version.
Zeeshan Quireshi
Dec 25, 2007 at 7:18 PM
nah , devs have issues statement that they will not include restart functionality .

Also , the aftertouch seems very much toned down and pretty useless now . same with the drifting , earlier you could drift just using brake smoothly without losing balance . now here's the whole balance stuff thrown into Paradise , drift a bit more and wham , your car overturns :(

And the most iritating part is that if you have a race and you do not win it then you have to drive all the way 3-4 miles to start the race again , no restart functionality :(

Also , i do not like this freestyle roaming idea , ofcourse it looks awesome and all but in the end you end looking at the map for every race , this places more emphasis on memorizing the track rather than racing fun which was the USP of burnout .

I mean there's no actual path to follow you can take any route you want , that's fine for some time but then you begin wondering "what the heck man.. , do i have to learn the whole map !" .

So for now Burnout Paradise gets 7/10 from me , might increase on playin final release though( but nothing's gonna change much coz Citerion site says that demo was made AFTER work on paradise was finished)
N
Dec 26, 2007 at 5:14 PM
well i played it.graphics look good but the game gets frustrating after sometime and i am happy with burnout revenge.this game is worth 7\10 .freestyle roaming could have been better since i dont want to stare at the map everytime.

Then login to Sify using the dialer. Next, without logging off, simply disconnect the cable from your LAN card and plug it in your Xbox 360. That's it.

Assassin's Creed-A Review

All of us are aware of Assassin's creed hype.so i too got my copy twice :p -
The first time-i ran it for five minutes and got till the training session and thats it-Sold.not quite impressive :mad:

Now- got another copy of the game :)) so here's a small review
*img530.imageshack.us/img530/3953/image002iy1.th.jpg*img529.imageshack.us/img529/3139/image003qo9.th.jpg*img140.imageshack.us/img140/9431/image004pk5.th.jpg

the cover art is superb,the manual is superb and Ubisoft's 10% discount on other games...well superb!
The game-
Though never shown on TV (or maybe i missed it),the game starts in ultra modern world with all the memory,gene,blah blah goes on and u go to some sort of a training.The controls are well put out and the camera is great.but till here there's nothing extraordinary.after u complete the training-the game actually starts to look like Assassin's creed :rolleyes: .Enemy AI is great.Sound department not impressive at all.Graphics are awesome.gameplay is average-for the first half hour u keep on trolling in ur memory with no relation between them and the only thing that stopped me from switching my xbox off is the curiosty to see what lies ahead.and yea the game rocks as it progresses!
The great thing is how u approach a mission-the way u want to.Environment is huge just like Crysis
i've played 4 hrs only and my 2nd copy is ready for sale :p
its designed like POP but isnt POP.in fact nothing when compared to POP 2T.
Gamespot review and Editor's choice= B******t
The other reveiw that gave it 7/10=Absolutely correct.
My opinion-Well play it once but the game currently at 2400bucks + customs it makes no sense at all.
