Xb0x360 Rock Band

Here is the latest review of Rock Band as of July 5th. There is a preview of the latest guitar (more buttons) which might make it harder, no image of the drums or the microphone.

you think thats bad....i just found out my evo has a single stage paint...so not actual clear coat.... which explains why everytime i drive my car, i get 20 new BIG paint chips in my hood and front fascia....... my hood looks like a paint vs. rock warzone, and the rocks are kicking ***!not to mention all the other huge paint dings all over my car due to the super cheap paint...... and my car only has 7000 miles on it! it looks like it has 170k !

dang, sorry to hear that jess. maybe u can get the front re-sprayed and then have a clear bra installed?

rock chips suck.

i'm still debating whether to get paintless dent repair to look at one of my rock chips. but, i guess i'll take some pix first and see what they say.

Yeah, so far i am loving my iPhone. I have finally gotten use to the touch screen and typing on it. It is nice that it has automatic spell check on it because you do miss a button every so often.

The internet on Edge feels like when i use to have dial up but it is nice to get the full on website then just crap down html version. The only few problems that i have with it are, it can be a slippery little devil at times and both the alarm and ringtones are the factory loaded ones and you can takes your music from itunes and use them as alarm or ringtones. Hopefully they will come up with an update because alot of people have been complaining about the ringtones.

Geez it has been a tough couple of weeks. But now It is time to enjoy all that hard work.

I GOT A NEW PS3!!!!
And A new Flat screen!!!!!!
In my new place!!!!!!
With the same wonderful girl!!!!

I know, I know . . . this is an XBOX crowd . . But I am loving this whole hi-def thing.


Hey Jessie - On the bright side . . you can repaint your car with another single stage for super cheap. The paint is about $27-30 for a half gallon. Plus another $50 in supplies. Then it is just a matter of sanding and buffing. For that price, just repaint your front bumper once a year.

You may want to take your PS3 back and get a price reduction, i just got an email from EB games that the 60g model came down in price by $100.

I'm sure that's not a problem. There are always plenty of shot-guns available.
BTW - Did I see you last night at R.E.I./Circuit City parking lot in Rancho?
I saw someone driving away that looked familiar, but I could remember from where.

I GOT A NEW PS3!!!!
Even though I'm not totally in agreement w/ you, congrats.
BTW - The new $100 off is because they will be introducing a 80gb version for $599.
If you decide you want/need more space than the 60gb, don't waste your money getting the 80gb from Sony.
One really nice feature about the PS3 is that you can upgrade the hard drive w/ any hard drive that fits the slot. It's a standard 2.5" laptop hard drive. You can buy 120gb for under $100 on ebay.

Sony's hard drive is 5400RPM speed, and they recommend staying w/ that instead of getting a faster version.
Here's a picture guide.

I'll be at the meet as long as there's a good turnout.

I just need to rotate tires, change brake pads, brake fluids, and flush transmission fluids.
