Xbox Problems

LCD screen being set to the wrong screen resolution

Luckily Microsoft has been fast to respond to these issues

mi se pare mie, sau asta e dumping? Din cate stiu, legislatia americana (si nu numai) interzice vanzarea produselor la preturi mai mici decat costul de fabricatie....

@cryo - Nu stiu.
Dar pe tremen lung Microsoft sigur o sa recupereze banii "pierduti"
Orcum acum cateva zile a fost nebunie mare ca toata lumea care vrea un Xbox 360 sa "pre-order" ca sa fie sigur ca primesc una in prima zi cand ajung in America.

pai e Thanksgiving...cadouri alea-alea, rush-rush prin toate magazinele. Am rugat pe cineva sa se uite de un NDS si mi-a zis ca nu mai sunt decat roz.

I-am zis ca fac ceva umed si persistent pe un hadnheld roz, sa si-l ia el daca are chef.

da' nu neg cum ca XBOX-ul nu s-ar vinde precum carnaciorii cu bere in State.

Se pare ca s-au rezolvat problemele . . .http://www.gamespot.com/forums/show_msgs.p...23998153&page=0
