yeah dude u need to get it upgraded to 1.6 ... what do u mean by media error ? what does the 360 say ? .. it should say play dvd ...
in the dashboard it says play dvd but when i press "A" to play a pop up window appears saying "media error"[/quote]



yep .. u need to get it upgraded to 1.6.. or if u have a benq or samsing drive .. then 1.61 and play wave4 directly ...

nah dude .. malaysians put less harm on a lens than a burnt one ... the quality of the punched malaysians is much better than the ones we burn ourselves

I've been using 360 for more than 3 years but my 360 died before my lens die LOL, btw never had any issue with the lens. I've used all brands of dual layer anyways enought with this bullshit lens discussion and stick with the thread.

so if AC2 and L4D2 both being wave 4 and wave 5 respectively CAN be patched to wave 3 then shouldn't it cure the firmware update hassle for everyone with a banned console and 1.6 ... ???
i mean, there isn't any wave 4 or above game that cannot be converted to wave 3 right ... ???

dude read the posts on the last page !! WAVE3 is also playable on ix1.51 too ... if the activate disc doesnt work ... then u didnt burn the disc right or u need a firmware upgrade to 1.6

yaar theres no need to convert the game .... my personal experience says that converted games hang in between gameplay .. thats why i dont recommend them ... if u have 1.6 or 1.61 .. then the activate disc solves your problem for ALL future waves .. because the activate disc process turns ur drive fw into non-stealth...

still ... i haven't experienced anything like 'hanging' in my tekken 6 :p
Plus; it still beats the hassle of inserting a damn disc every time you wanna play :D

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
