I Got Rock Band

So today I went and picked up my copy of Rock Band, I got it a day early since the official release date is not until tomorrow. So i decide to get the full bundle Drums, Guitar and Mic, Wow does the bundle come in a giant box. The only bad thing is that you have to buy the game separate, the game is not included with the bundle.

So when I got home, I open the box and started to put my insturtment together.The guitar looks and feels great, I found it a lot lighter than the Guitar Hero guitars. The buttons on the guitar are also a lot softer that the Guitar Hero buttons, anybody who has played Guitar will know what I'm talking about.

The Drums are totally AWESOME. I have never played real drums before, normally I would grab the stick and just hammer on the drums messing. So I have played a few game on drums on easy of course and I am really starting to get the hang of things. Also I know everyone says that the drum kit is really big and takes up a lot of room, but there wrong, the drum kit is not that big they are just the right size.

Not much to say about the Mic, its a Mic you sing into it.

Microsoft, I Want My Money Back

So last night my Xbox Live Gold Membership ran out. No big deal, because I have a prepaid card that will renew my subscription. So after my Xbox Live subscription, I went onto Xbox.com and entered the membership section, I entered my 25 digit code then hit the Redeem button, I waited as the page loaded. But instead of seeing Thank You for renewing your subscription, I get this message saying Please enter a Valid Code.

So today I have been going mad, I just spent €60 on a piece card with an invalid code on it. So I went back to Xbox.com to see if I counld find out anymore information about my account. It turns out my account has been suspended until I make payment, but since I have an invaild code I can't make payment.

So for the next couple of days I won't be on Live until I sort this out with Microsoft. If anybody else has had problems with prepaid cards or subscription probelm, Please feel free and thell your story in the comment section.

Motorcycle missions are not fun.

I'm doing pretty good in GTA IV and I am nearing the end. But there is one mission standing in my way. I have to chase some guy on a motorcycle, but motorcycles are pretty hard to drive and shoot at the same time, If you crash you have most likely failed the mission.

I have tried everything to beat this mission, I have even planted cars in the way before the mission but the clever game makes them disappear as the mission starts. Its one of them missions that should be really easy, but its so easy that its hard.

If anybody knows what mission i am talking about, please feel free and leave me some tips.

Edit: Comment section may contain spoilers.

Bad at Burnout

So last night after the GH3 tournament I started to play Burnout with Don and a few other gamespot users. Burnout is a lot of fun if you know where to go and what to do. I am not one of them people, It takes me ages to get to the chanllege area and if thats not bad enough it takes me about 100 attempts just to finish.

I don't mine being so bad when your playing against players that don't mine helping you out, each user had his own role to help me out;

Don = GPS: Don knows Paradise City like the back of his hand, He knows every road, jump and billboard. I got so lost so most of the time but Don was there to put me right back on track.

Tams = Takedown Master: Now Tams also did help out with challenges but most of the time he found it more amusing to take me down just as I was about to finish a challenge

All in all, I had a great night and it was tons on fun, but be warned I am BAD AT BURNOUT
