Finally! I've been waiting so long for it.

Man, 19th of December... I'm sooooooo ready for that day. I'm going to be up all night waiting for it to be posted and then I'm going to play that sucker until I pass out.

Was this only a one day deal? Is it under the COD4 category?

The COD4 free theme is still up. Look under Marketplace - Themes - All Games - COD4 - Charlie Delta Oscar Theme.

I've been waiting for this one too...but never played the original.

What type of game is it? Kind of quirky but realistic at the same time? Or just plain arcade fun?

Is that 500 free MS points offer still valid? I can't find it on xbox.com

I picked up the 12 month subscription card + 1 month free yesterday. Circuit City was sold out and I got the last one at Game Stop.

Re: Xbox Live Marketplace and Live Arcade discussion Part III

So...I bought one of the new Gamerpics available from College Hoops 2K8 so that I could sport a UNC Tar Heel logo. The logo comes up fine when I look at my gamercard with the Xbox itself, but when you view it online, it's a Richmond Spiders gamerpic. What the hell is that about?

Anyone else ever have a problem with it showing the incorrect gamerpic?

LOL, I've been wondering why you're flying the Richmond Spiders, I thought it was a radio thing or something.

LOL, nope. I hate the Spiders, in fact. Old CAA rivals with UNCW. First CAA Championship Game I ever attended in person was a loss to Richmond. The Spiders went on to beat South Carolina in the 1st round of the NCAA Tournament. So yeah...it pains me to have this thing on my gamercard at the moment.

I was wondering why the hell you had that when we played Friday night.

Maybe you didn't buy the UNC logo? Just like you bought the NC State logo.

Wait...so it's showing up that way on your actual Xbox too? Damn...I gotta change it I guess.

Is there any way to make your owner gamer picture or no?
