i really wish microsoft had solved that noise problem before launch cause my computers also really loud so sometimes it sounds like world war 3 is happening in my basement:(
"...we want to make sure that everyone understands that you play as a member of this elite unit."
Why not just call it Halo: The One Where You Don't Play as Master Chief That Isn't Halo Wars? Or instead you could call it Halo: TOWYDPMCTIHW and then when people figure out what the fuck the acronym means they will understand that you don't actually play as Master Chief in this game.
When I put a CD or a DVD my Xbox makes a low, ominous sound which signals it's about to explode. Once I contemplated jumping out of the way like they do in the movies.
And @BoondockSaint54, that's because Microsoft take it to their top-secret lab and torture it until it starts again. They have an institute for 360's that were driven mad byt the rigorous torture, and shuffle quietly around humming to themselves quietly.
i was reading this when a thought just occured to me,
what would happen if microsoft merged with sony!
it would never happen but if it did they would create the best darn console in the universe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!mmmwwwwwwwaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahammmwwwwwaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha
@jar-head, I hope those both weren't serious questions or is our public schools really failing this much?
@jedipimp0712, The point system is a tool used by the jewish accoutants who run microsoft and figured out a very clever way to make you pay a lot more for things you don't want.
@samsterman2, it would also give to much control for one company creating like a monolopy on the consoles and games. So ya it would be a leet system but the cost would be more then some of the best computer gaming rigs. Also the price of games would sky rocket
Im lucky, I have this super ability to block out the noise without thinking about it, or at least not care. When I first saw people complaining about the noise I did not know what they were talking about, until I turned on my 360 to listen to it whirr. Oh and about the red ring of death, that was almost just a myth to me, until i saw a friend's 360 had that. oh, and third, the xbox does not suck. well maybe the first xbox, but the 360 rocks since it exchanged the black and white buttons in favor of dual shoulder buttons it got from the ps2
Its funny my drive is getting a bit older now and it always throws the cats off. They'll be in the room sleeping on the chairs and all of a sudden the 360 starts up whirling the DVD scaring the crap out of them lol. These are the same cats, with one, that are annoyed or fascinated, don't know which, with the printer. I heard that Halo Recon (ODST) had the name change because they wanted to emphasize that you weren't playing as Master Chief this go around.
Or we could just name it Halo 4 and get over with it instead of arguing in forums about it for the next 6 months! Or we could just say "Hey its called Halo:ODST who gives a %*?@!!!"
When your playing a game,or watching a DVD,somehow it makes your brain forget the noise.When im playing GTA IV,all I hear is the gunshots of my AK47.Sweet.
This doesnt really matter that much. I can't really hear the noise when I'm playing a game, the game volume mutes it somewhat and I get too involved to even notice. Plus installing it on the hard drive takes up too much memory, so I don't think it's even worth trying.
