General_Crespin Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Edor, please tell me that the "Owned" refers to the bidder getting owned and not to you owning that thing after paying 660 dollars for it. I'm disappointed in you. If I wanted to buy an Xbox 360, there is no way in heaven or hell that I would pay several hundred over retail for it. Hell, I can't even pay retail. Okay, so that's because I bought (okay, am buying Monday or Tuesday) a $3000 computer. Been saving up for a long time. http://crespin.xwlegacy.net/pics/Shadowkeeper99a.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always read the fine print Who ever "won" didn't even get an XBox 360This auction is for the photo only. The poor, foolish bloke who bidded on it will be kicking himself http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defender_16 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! They did it again! Old news Item. http://halo.bungie.org/misc/xboxpic/ Item price $320.00 Description You are bidding on the picture of the BRAND NEW XBOX. The XBOX is the BRAND NEW video game system by MICROSOFT. You do not get the actual system, just a picture of the BRAND NEW XBOX. The picture is printed on computer paper and SHIPPING IS FREE. Again, this is not an auction for the XBOX, but for a picture of the BRAND NEW XBOX! PAYPAL AND MONEY ORDER ACCEPTED!! Rofl. And, on Backwards compatability...http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/stuntmutt/403.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthTofu Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Haha, I have got to try that when a new video game system comes out!

Darth_Rob Posted November 28, 2005 Author Share Posted November 28, 2005 True, true. I remember the same thing happening on ebay when the PS2 came out. The auction was for "the box", and not the system inside the box. Morons bought it. Heh. Your feeble skills are no match for the power of the Dark Side!

Mad78 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 BTW it seems the system is already having some rather serious crashes.

Darth_Rob Posted November 28, 2005 Author Share Posted November 28, 2005 Thats why I never buy a system the first two years. Give the manufacturer some time to get all the kinks out.

Krytos Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 A friend of mine sent that to me a while back (but the link doesn't work anymore )Funny video - one question though, what did that have to do with the xbox 360? Seriously, without that xbox 360 logo . . . sorry, had to pause - just had a massive spider crawl over myself and this laptop . . . I'm going now . . . http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad78 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 DO you have a Huntsmen infested house Kryt? Love the add. i think it had to do with the online capabilities of the console. Very innovative in any case. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthTofu Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I think that the add was designed to be like Halo 2... just without weapons. It's for whne Halo 3 comes out for the 360 or something. 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Rob Posted December 3, 2005 Author Share Posted December 3, 2005 I thought it was pretty funny. The closest I ever got to on-line gaming was playing a WWE PS2 game online...

Krytos Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 DO you have a Huntsmen infested house Kryt? Wasn't a huntsman unfortunately (at least they're not poisoness). It wasn't as big as one (porbably half the size), but black, shinny, two big fangs and with two white lines on it's "butt". Enough to make me think twice about how to get rid of it.It's been hot here for a few weels, and then it rained for the last two days - which would force any spiders out in search of a dry place As for the ad, Mad was right about the direction - showing off a wide interactive community. The fps aspect wasn't aimed at any game specifically - just a more identifiable game style, as well as being easier to show off. The problem about ads like that, is while they're fun to watch - they don't actually illistrate the actual product being sold, features or any real aspect of the productI'm surprised it got through to production, even though there wasn't any product placement during the entire ad. http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General_Crespin Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 That ad is awesome. Regarding the Xr pictures on eBay, I don't know how many buyers did this, but at least one didn't pay, the seller left negative feedback.

DarthTofu Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Okay, this story I heard the other night at a party and have to tell. There's this guy, in his senior year of College I think, he has a double major in biology and economics with some computer technology that he took for fun and developed very well. The company that he intended to work for with the economics/biology degree goes belly up a couple of days after he arrives for an interview or something in California. Anyway, he figures that while he's there and needs a job, he might as well apply for a position at Microsoft. He and about eight other guys are interviewed. A couple of days later he get's a call and a woman tells him that if he joins up he will start with a @75,000 a year sallary, and how sure was he that he wanted the job? He replied that he was about 90% sure he wanted. She asks what they can do to fill in the other ten percent. he answers; One thing: I want an X-box 360. He takes the job and a while goes by, and he starts to think that the woman figured he was joking and just didn't do anything regarding the X-box. He's Christmas shopping with his dad at circuit city when his dad starts teasing him, pointing out all the people in line to get the 360 and talking about how he has a job at microsoft and no 360. The guy takes out his phone, calls the same lady that called him before and inquires about the X box. She sighs and says, "Sir, your X-box is in process of being put together along with every game currently made for it. It should be shipped to you by the tenth." The moral: Become a really valuable person, work at Microsoft, and you get really awesome free stuff. ... ... ... 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
