He did. Looks like I'm gonna have call Xbox customer service Did he use it already, Ani? I think the transfer wire/disc can only be used once. I think so but he said for me to pass it down to other once I'm down using it. Thought that implies it can be used more then once.

Thought that implies it can be used more then once. I wouldn't be surprised if MS put a little chip in the fat end of the plug that does only let it be used once. UPDATE The official X Box forums brought this little jem up. assets.xbox.com/en-us/support/MigrationKit-OrderForm.pdfUPDATED UPDATE Disregard my link I just read the actual form. Stupid MS. Isn't it costing them more money to make 1 time use cable?

Thought that implies it can be used more then once. I just recall that when I bought my Elite and used the transfer cable that it said it can only be done once. You should go to xbox.com, they used to let people order the transfer cable's for free. Though that may have just been in particular circumstances.

I think it's BS that they even charge for a transfer cable. If you're going to make it a one-use thing, just give it away for free.
This is why I'm glad I got a mem card and did it the old-fashioned way.

Holy DOUGHNUTS, this Achievement is difficult!
So, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, in the test track (to test out your vehicles in Mumbo's shop), you earn an Achievement by flying the giant gravity-defying soccer ball through a tunnel on ground-level, but I haven't been able to get the damn thing even remotely close to the GROUND. I've used a Suck 'N' Blow, I've used Bumpers, I've tried four different flying vehicles, but no damn dice.
I have to sleep on it.

There's the video...

Well I'm finally giving in and have decided to buy Rock Band 2...(spending New Years eve with nothing but singstar will do that to you). So my question is...what do I need? It's all abit confusing really.
As far as I can tell Rock Band 1 instruments will work on number two right?
I had guitar hero 2 but me and my brother broke it out of frustration about a year ago. So yea, anyone know what the best deal to get is (rock band 2 solus, band in a box etcetera)?
PS, is it true you can use a 360 headset as a mic?! If so....excellent!

All Rock Band instruments are compatible with Rock Band 2. The Les Paul Guitar Hero controller is compatible as well. And yes, you can use the LIVE headset as a microphone I found that out by happenstance, and haven't touched the actual microphone since.

I already asked this in the PS3 thread but since it's the same game I thought I would ask it here too: Fallout 3 question: At the Radio Station in DC where you can ask one of the soldiers if you can train to wear that large stormtrooper like armour. Well he said you have a ask a Lyons permission before you can be trained and says that Lyons is usually near the lab. But there is no lab at the Radio Station. So can someone please let me know where this lab where Lyons hangs out is? Don't hold out for using power armour early in the game. Mind you it's all about the black/red outcast power armour. That look rocks

*sigh* I know I'm the eleventy bajillionth guy to ask this, but WHY CAN I NOT CONNECT TO XBOX LIVE? !!!! I've checked my connections. I'm not wireless--I connected my ethernet cable into my laptop computer, and I REFUSE to shell out $100 on a wireless adaptor that, if required to play XBox Live, should have been packaged in with the console in the first place. Apparently, my IP Address failed its test, whatever the hell that means. I don't know an IP Address from a Pop Tart.

I used to get that problem all the time....just make sure your connections are pretty good or you might have a bad network cable.... Also one time I had that problem I just redid the test like 3 times straight and it finally picked it up right.... And wi-fi isn't necessary for Live...as a matter of fact I have my 360 hardwired right this second...

Also check out your firewalls. Another trick is to disconnect everything, modem and all, and wait a while and reconnect.
