I’m happy this Monday for a few reasons. The New England Patriots lost and so went the end of the “oh we’re so arrogant” era. I’ve never seen a team that rubbed just about everyone outside of their hometown the wrong way. Belicheat remained as classless as ever after the game so although I didn’t watch it, I was happy at the end result.
The other happy reason is that I’ll be seeing a pre-release screening of The Spiderwick Chronicles tomorrow. I hope a few of the people from U360 make it out. I’ve watched the trailer and it looks to be a fun fantasy film.
Last Saturday’s live show went very well. I discovered quite a few things about the DRM issue that I didn’t know before. If you haven’t listened in, be sure you do as you might find a solution to your problem of not being able to play your Xbox Live Arcade games. Big shout to everyone who called in and joined in on the chat. It was another great show!
I hope everyone has a good Monday. Let’s see what the gaming world has in store this week.

I have been waiting for this post, just so I could say: I hate you Deacon.
lol SO, I went back through my records - made the call on 11/28 for the second time. I was trying to get my console ID number changed. They had me delete and redownload tons of games… no dice.
I received calls from Xbox twice a week for 3 weeks saying “we are working on it.” They stopped calling. Still didn’t work. I even tried to re-download as recently as January 15th. But they never worked.
Saturday, after the live show, I sat down and tried to redownload Joust. It… freaking… worked.
I’ve tried several times, and I was never notified when it was finally changed, but I guess my console ID was, indeed, changed. So, it holds true - I’d recommend trying the ‘re-download’ solution once a week until it’s resolved.

TX and PA both seem to have good showings on the U360 site for some reason. Don’t know how it happened, nobody really “brought me here” it was just hearing about The 360 Laws, before there was that big post on Xbox.com about’em, from Trixie. But I haven’t been able to leave ever since!
