Does anyone have a data transfer cable they've used that they'd be willing to send to me? I would order one from Microsoft but apparently it can take a while to arrive and want one as soon as poss.

I'll happily pay for postage and chuck a fiver in or summit!?

Finally got around to finish Dead Space. Finished with 630 gamerpoints, so starting Round 2 to try and get the cutter-only achievement. Thing is I just accidentally used my flamethrower, so I let myself be killed to let the game auto-load the last 'checkpoint'... Considering I'm only on the first level I can see myself completing the entire game and still not get the achievement... I could start again but I want to continue with this 'profile' so I can fully upgrade all guns.

Going to play GTA: Episodes after a bit of this, looking forward to it!

My mates got Dead Space, it's a decent enough game i think (when i played the game).

GTA: Episodes, best one is Lost and Damned i believe. Ballad of Gay Tony is pretty decent as well, loads to do including tri-athlon races and parachuting.

downloaded the last.fm thingy.

Not really much too it at first look. Mind you, I only use last.fm for scrobbling and not much else aka I'VE NEVER USED ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR SCROBBLE ON LAST.FM.

Seeing as I don't have any songs on my 360 hard drive, I don't actually know what in Jez's name I'll be using it for.

Meh, it will be more useful than Twitter anyway...

Listening to stuff on Last.FM is one of the worst system's I've ever seen. Microsoft should work with Spotify instead.

Apart from when your playing with a headset and everbody can hear 'HERE AT SPOTIFY WE DO OUR BEST...BLAH BLAH BLAH' I couldn't ignore the adverts if I had it on my xbox.

I just started Dead Space actually, it scared the hell out of me at the start but I think I've become a bit relaxed with it (waiting for an elevator to open it's doors aiming my gun waiting for something to come at me and it did made me think it might become a bit predictable) so I'll enjoy it more instead of playing a bit at a time being scared.
More to the point I quoted you. I got to this section where a crap load of the things came at me and I died. I started again with half of my health. If it loads from the last checkpoint shouldn't I have started with full health?
With that in mind I'm thinking you won't get the achievement.

If you've used scrobbling then it's perfect... you can play your entire library through your 360 without needing to connect to it at all, or play recommendations based on what you've listened to. Alternatively you can just enter the name of a band you like and start playing a playlist of similar music.

Ah good! Its the only flaw really in spotify, which sucks given its a good program, I can mostly ignore the adverts, but the pricing to get rid of said adverts is ridiculous. (something like £138 a year..)

I haven't got it yet, but he's had it for quite a while so I'm fairly sure it's an old one.

Google the catalogue number (882224628372), it comes up with 2100 points. Plus they've sold them for £6.99 before and they were 2100 cards. Microsoft don't sell points under 2100 do they?

Yeah i think ur right, i don't i have ever seen any under 2100 in card form.

Hmm, i just find it abit odd how they have another link for it and the product on the link you gave isn't complete and the 'main one' is out of stock.

Oh well, think i will give it a go anyway since it's from a reputable site.

Thanks for the link and here is hoping it is a 2100 points card!
