    XBOX BAD LUCK! :(

    If you've ever had worse luck than I sympathise with you! here's how mine went!

    My luck ran our sadly on the day I left work last year! I got home plugged in my xbox, bought an extra gig of cap, cause I was going to sit and play COD4 all day and night, turn on my box only to find that my profile won't log into live?? so I fiddle and fiddle and figure that I've forgotten to change the accounts over for the extra gig I just bought, fine done!

    back to step one turn on XBOX! ready for COD4 .... signing in..... still signing in.... 2min later the blade (that I presume says could not connect) now says "Your account has been suspended due to a failure in billing" what this means of course is that MS have sent me a mail to a mail box I don't read anymore, what it normally states is that your account is due to expire if you wish to continue with the service we will bill your credit card, should you wish to cancel your service please reply to this e-mail.

    Of course I didn't get the chance to read the e-mail so they went ahead and billed the credit card, which of course has expired! so after attempting numerous amounts of times to try and get my live account cancelled I could not, MS seem to be stubborn about this kind of thing! it's NO! we don't want you to cancel, we want to charge your credit card this one! no unfortunately for me I cannot get hold of MS (overseas) to cancel my account but fortunately for me one of my live buddies was able to help!

    In the end he managed to resolve the situation with much debate over the phone (as he was pretending to be me!) we managed to get the account changed/cancelled and moved onto a prepaid voucher. in this matter I'm not committing "Fraud".

    I bet you thought this is where the story ends? after thankfully getting put back onto live! and coming home at 2 in the morning after a good time with my mates I decided to get in some long awaited COD4 Action (this is now Jan, a month after) YAY! I get into a match! I celebrate by being completely slaughter by everyone! :( wow I'm out of practice! anyway's we continue, and everyone' now tired not me I just got back onto live! so I pipe up, let's play Gears of War! yeah why not I hear!

    So I plug it in and there's an update! well that's no problem I can update my games again now cause I'm back online! update done setup the match get into the lobby the machine freezes!.... wha? dammit, restart... R.O.D  0_0  no... not the R.O.D! nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! now to understand my despair you must understand that my machine is the a pre-launch (in SA machine) so it's one of the longest standing XBOX's in the country, my trooper has thrown in the towel and give up the ghost! :( so no gears for me ... so I sleep.

    Next morning I make a plan, fortunately I have Xbox's at the office :) so I pick up one of the core units and plug in! wooo hooo! plug in Naruto to collect on the exclusive content, and play a match with a mate... I get the update required! no problem! ..60% ... 75% .... 80% (wow the updates' are cruising!) 98% ... *woosh* blade comes in "Cannot complete download" huh? try again and again something happened to me in the market place as well 99% = can't complete download.... What's going on!!!! and apparantly MS Live was having another bad day.... which added to my bad month :(

    and that's my story I have a temporary console for now going to get my new console soon. but at least I'm online again and working :)

    on a side note I'd hate any of you to get caught out on this billing act. so go to www.billing.microsoft.com if you are on a Credit Card get off of it. cause they're clamping down big time on this. get yourself a pre-paid card you can get them from www.take2.co.za or www.gamepointsnow.com

    Fourways, South Africa— 2nd January 2008 — Megarom Interactive (Pty) Ltd. , one of South Africa’s leading interactive video game importers and distributors, today announced that Ubisoft, one of the world’s largest video game publishers, announced the first details for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® Vegas 2, currently in production for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Games for Windows. Scheduled for a March 2008 release and developed by Ubisoft’s award-winning Montreal studio, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is the sixth iteration of the multimillion-selling Rainbow Six tactical shooter franchise and follow-up to the highly successful and award-winning Rainbow Six Vegas.

    Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is the last chance for gamers to rescue America’s sexiest city from an escalating terrorist siege that will impose heart-pounding action from beginning to end.  The best are back and this time winner takes all. The highly-anticipated sequel to the recipient of numerous awards, including 2006’s Best First Person Shooter and Best Online Game, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will push the top-selling franchise to new heights with new gameplay features and groundbreaking co-op and multiplayer modes.

    Product Highlights:

    More Multiplayer – The highly acclaimed multiplayer mode in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas has been upgraded to include 13 new maps with more intense face-offs, two new adversarial modes, more rewards, and easier access to matches using the improved and intuitive matchmaking system.

    Unprecedented Customizable Experience – Create your own identity that persists through both the single player and multiplayer modes and progresses along with you.  Reap the benefits of your single player rewards in multiplayer and vice versa. 

    Vastly Improved Co-op Mode – Turn single player mode into co-op mode at any time, just by jumping into the game. Now you and a friend can jump into a single player game and assist without any change to the story. The single player maps and storyline were created with co-op in mind, meaning every map has multiple entry points and the story is unaffected.

    Challenging  AI – The AI is more challenging than ever. Now, the terrorists are equipped with thermal vision, night vision, and shields – not to mention a multitude of varying tactics – all of which are guaranteed to give you a new playing experience every time you go into battle.  As you progress within the game, you’ll be able to outsmart your enemies by taking advantage of intelligence opportunities, such as thermal scanning.

    New Weapons and Armor – Take down the terrorists more effectively using 11 new weapons.  New camouflage, clothing and gear allow for the ultimate customizations.

    · More Vegas – Sin City is back and bigger than before. Explore all new Vegas hot spots and the gritty back streets creating a visual experience that is as challenging as it is breathtaking.
