I doubt its under warranty. Its a launch 360 : (
You are under the warranty then! They made a new warranty change early this year about that and if you have a launch system it's still under the warrant(like a 2 year warranty for em I think, don't know the specifics still but you should check it out at xbox.com and see whats up)

And I just got a major detail spoiled for me. Awesome. Oddly enough, it contradicted what the other spoiler said, but this guy is pretty sure. *sigh*


I was so close...

I'm worried about massive spoiler attacks tomorrow. Both on this website and in the midnight lineups.
 
Hey the ax360 headphones are great an all but the headset sounds come out of them and they recommend to lower the sound output in the games your playing so you can hear what people are saying in the mic.

Well guess what? Halo 3 has no adjustable sound outputs to my knowledge. Awesome!

Yeah, when I got onto the front page of GAF, and didn't see the Official Halo thread, I was shocked as to how we let it fall to the second page. Alas, I only needed to look up. :P

A few days ago, this thread actually was on the second page. I nearly had a stroke.

EDIT: Pre-order at a mall EB/GS people! That way you don't:

A. Look like an idiot waiting outside a store for two days.
B. Be in a car accessible area where idiots can do drive-by spoiler attacks.

This thread got the sticky of death :/

And I think I'm going to spend more on gaming accessories for Halo 3 than the actual game.

Chatpad for naming movies and screenshots....check
Wireless headset to hear the funny racist 12 year olds....check
Catheter for non-stop gaming action...check

Im thinking about buying these because I really want a better sound setup for my 360 and I play at my computer desk. Not only that I cant have a surround sound setup because of space and I live in an apartment.

I really am super stoked on halo 3, bah. I took tuesday night off of work, I work 10pm-6am, so I would have more time to play.

I wonder how much it would cost to overnight those headphones...
I love this headphones, except...it tends to blast to the full volume in the middle of the gaming session. It happens more often when the game uses the surround sound more like Bioshock. I stopped using it because I feared it would ruin my hearing.
 
Ok, I need help with something. I'm trying to get the MP movies that were posted a few pages back to play(http://forum.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?t=548069). I've installed Divx like it said, but they still insist to not play. I even tried restarting to see if that would get the program to run, but I tried again to get them to play and it tells me to download Divx again...GRRRR Anyone with a solution? It would be greatly appreciated.
 
Retailers have to hold on to pre-order copies for at least the first 24 hours right? I'm getting a sinking feeling that a manager at Mirocenter is gonna tell employees to just sell whatever they have at midnight so the entrances to the store aren't jammed all day, blocking MIT students from buying wiring and motherboards to place on their shirts so they can go antagonize people at the airport.

Hold on to my copy, ya bastards.
 
Anyone know if Halo 3 will have options to change the in game volume? I would like to be able to turn it down so that I can hear voice chat over top well enough and just turn up the headphones to compensate for the lower game volume.

To be honest the volume level for voice chat is atrocious through the speakers, and can be just as bad through a wired headset.

I just might get them next-day shipped (the AX360's) so I would have them tuesday or wednesday. I can survive that long I hope with 2D sound.

The simplest solution is to download and use VLC. Doesn't need any extra codecs and plays most everything.

Then, use these links to download the files:
 
Yeah, I definitely spent more on "accessories" than on the game.

Xbox 360: $350
HDTV: $475
Extra Controller: $50
360 Wireless Adapter: $100
XBL for One Year: $50
TOTAL: $1025!

I said wow. :lol
 
I'll go run out there tomorrow with my camera and take some photos.

perhaps having them hold up some funny signs or something.
