Where’s the Ball??
What? Where’s the ball? Playing NBA 2K12 and suddenly the ball is gone, you can see the shadow of the ball and of course if you get a basket the net moves. It’s kind of funny watching the players juke each other out with no ball. Air basketball! Hey 2K Sports have you seen this one yet?

xbox live not working status code 397d – 0000 – 0080 – 0300 – 8007 – 2751
Don’t you hate when XBox live doesn’t work? How about after a week! At first I figured XBox was just having a bad day, but after several days of not working it was time to call. This error comes up after XBox Live tells you that there is an update and as it’s trying to download it fails. After some searching the web there was really no answer. Microsoft’s first answer was your having network connectivity / configuration issues. I then explained that I am a network Engineer and not only do I not have issues, but I confirmed all the details and he quickly saw OK this sounds like it’s configured properly. A couple of questions later I pulled the hard drive out with the same result which I was expecting. 40 minutes later we still can’t get things to work and wouldn’t you know it, the phone gets disconnected. I wait a couple of minutes thinking they would call back, but no luck, so I call in go through some menu options and welcome to the we’re closed message. So it’s back to square one when I call in tomorrow, hopefully I can get us all a real fix.
Xbox Live is down for Maintenance 06-16-2009
| It’s that time again when Microsoft upgrades equipment and features on Xbox-Live so they are down for what is expected to be an all day outage. ?While the obvious gaming services will be down, Netflix to your XBOX will also be down. |  |
| Didn’t Microsoft consider doing this before summer time?
Microsoft partnered with Netflix back in?July of 2008 and I’m thinking they will look to expand other services via your XBOX in the future. ?As these partnerships increase and the financial stakes go up I’m sure they will work on ways of upgrading and maintaining systems while not taking down the services. In previous all day maintenance/outages Microsoft made improvements to the servers and I guess it was worth it. Let’s see what they come back with this time. |

Is Halo2 New again?
 |
 |
| For those of you who first started playing Halo on-line when Halo2 came out, it was the first of it’s kind and a lot of fun, not to mention addicting. Ivory Tower, Burial Mounds, Turf, Warlock and Terminal are just a few of the maps in the game and certainly bring back memories?when you hear the names.
After playing hundreds if not thousands ( 3802 according to bungie.net ) of Halo3 Games we thought it would be fun to pop Halo2 into our XBox 360 and see what happens. After downloading the maps the meories came rushing back, and the game play was just as much fun as when we first played it! There were even people on-line playing! Yes Halo2, in most cases it actually found a matche quicker than Halo3! |
|
| Game modes like Snipers! and Swat were just a few of the ways Halo2 is more fun than Halo3. Sure you can setup custom games in Halo3, but click-n-go is great. After several hours of playing, I think we’ll be playing Halo2 for a while…. maybe a Halo2 resurgence? |
