    Re: X BOX OWNERS!!!!!

    there were many long discussions about this on the ncaa board. it's probably got something to do with what version of the xbox you have. there are 3 different dvd readers which have been released at various times in the xbox's life. if you got a launch box, you're gonna have some problems. apparently the new ones are pretty relyable, i'm not sure about the inbetween ones. I've got a launch era box and i get a few NCAA DDE's(i took the game back for a new copy and it didn't help) but i've seen nothing on Madden thus far(played 4+ seasons, so not sure it'll ever show up). But It's apparently not a problem with EA, it's the DVD reader you have in your box. Someone said something about how much EA has to fit onto the discs to fit the whole game that the readers have to be especially good to read it(not that the old readers are bad, but you understand they make better readers with time). Anyway, a lot of people traded in their xbox for $100 and paid the extra $80 to get a new system to avoid this problem(which is only with EA games). there doesn't seem to be much you can do other than that, and i'm not so sure calling EA will do any good since it doesn't seem to be their problem.

      My friend has XBOX and he had to return his TW 2004 because of DDE's. I have never had any problems with my PS2 copy of Tiger.

      EA hates XBOX.

            CM, there's a lot of truth to that.

            I had a ton of DDE's on my launch unit. Using Best Buy's replacement plan, I traded it in for a newer model, and it's worked flawlessly so far.

                  Right now I am kicking my self in the a$$ for not getting that plan at best buy! I would have but every system I have ever had i never had a problem with it! What gets me is, it is not even 2 yrs old yet, got in dec. of 2001! I guess I have got my money's worth out of it, could have spent alot more in bars if it wasn't for xbox! On the plus side my wife said I could get a new one, thanks for all your input!

                        That's the same thing my wife says. I may blow a lot of cash on games, but I could be blowing a lot of cash on booze, drugs, or hookers.
