Re: Cheap 120GB XBox HDD?

That's the thing about watches. You can get something that's a great watch, looks perfect, has everything going for it. But if douchebags like it, buy it, and wear it, you'll look like a douche bag if you have one.

Doesn't matter if you buy a fucking Rolex Submariner and then go Scuba Diving with it as intended. You'll still be a douche.

Those, though, are unique enough to not suffer the "Tag Heurization" phenomenon.

Holy ffffffuck that's a sweet watch. What sort of prices are these things commanding?

about $8k

haha that's awesome. I was expecting them to be at least twice as much, so seeing that I thought to myself "Oh, that's not bad, doable even".... then I digested the information, and $8,000.00 is definitely not doable. Stareable though, definitely stareable.

dude sell the civic!

have to pay it off first man. I'd be tempted though. If I could pay off the civic in 3 years, or less. Sell it for $15, $16 k maybe. Buy a miata and a nice fucking watch. haha yeah

I'll never do that.

by Aristotle Tue Dec 23, 2008 5:29 pm

a miata and a bucherer would be tite, though.

haha what a way to live. Seriously though. I just once want to experience what it's like to own and drive a roadster, wearing a nice leather coat, nice pair of driving shoes, and a nice chronometer - something like the boucherer, or a Speedmaster. Nice pair of driving gloves too.

Fuck yes.

Alright. I'm going down to stare at the Rolexs.

That or try one of the off brands. Some game stores also sell used controllers.

That's a damn good price for a wireless controller....they're usually $49. Otherwise, used is probably the best way to go if he wants a wireless, as I'm pretty sure none of the 3rd-party brands are allowed to make wireless ones.

Doesn't Mad Catz or one of those other shitty brands make a wireless? I could've sworn they did but maybe not.

I got Storm a red wireless controller with the plug 'n play or whatever with it. Expensive as hell but it stands out in our sea of white controllers.

Yeah, I got a black controller after I broke my white controller. I tried to open it up to fix a sticky shoulder button and ended up fucking it up even worse. So I smashed it and got another one.

But I'm pretty sure MS has refused to license anything regarding wireless controls for the XBox to a 3rd party. I remember a big stink about them not allowing wireless peripherals for Guitar Hero and Rock Band or something.

I was looking at the Sonys today. Nice units, but I've got to pay off my car, get something together for a down payment, get some 'emergency money' together, etc etc.

So it's far down on my 'to buy' list. And for the money they're running I'd rather save a bit more and get a sweet watch or something.

by Aristotle Wed Dec 24, 2008 12:51 am

dude, if you're going to get a TV, get a samsung. don't pay up for the sony.

unless they go on sale. right now, though, the 40 inch xbr7 is like 2k. fuck that shit. they're a bunch of faggots and can gtfo.

by Honor Thu Dec 25, 2008 5:07 pm

apparently the only way to transfer data from one hd to another is with microsoft's data transfer kit. do they really expect me to pay 20 - 25 bucks for something ill only use once on top of the money i already shelled out for the harddrive itself? :curses:

by Honor Thu Dec 25, 2008 5:08 pm

that makes me so fuckin pissed, man

by Aristotle Thu Dec 25, 2008 7:21 pm

everything is a fucking scam, man.

i'm fed up with consoles altogether. i'd rather just buy pc games.

by Honor Thu Dec 25, 2008 7:35 pm

well i dont have to buy anything but i have to send away for a data transfer kit from ms. should take a couple weeks. they should have included it with the hd. bastards...

by JaysonAych Thu Dec 25, 2008 11:32 pm

The HDDs I've seen in the stores include the data transfer kit. :unsure:

im pretty sure the 120GBs include them, but the 60GB doesnt seem to.

by thewalrus Fri Dec 26, 2008 1:47 pm

Man I'd like a 360 Jesus.

Also, maybe my technological knowledge is lacking, but doesn't it seem more reasonable to put a data transfer device in a product with a smaller HD so that it's easier to transfer to a larger HD own the road than in a product with a large HD where there is probably :undies:

less need to upgrade the HD?

i'd like an xbox 360, though. Woe
