Microsoft says Halo 3: ODST disc read errors aren't 'widespread' {Joystiq}

Sep 28th 2009 10:27PM Halo 3 with Mythic map achievements (before ODST, old disk) used to have a bit of a delay on the notifications with the Mythic achievements.

However...the Halo 3 Multiplayer Disk achievements seem to continue this trend, but I havent noticed any issues with other notifications. It also seems that the achievements for things like shotgun spree and sword spree take longer than the vidmaster and skulls...i dont know.


The ODST disk however...Game invites, achievements, friend online...all notifications seem to be laggy for me. Sometimes. I got 200,000 on Crater today and it was instant. Audiophile was pretty instant too. But all of the "Finished such-and-such Campaign level on Normal, Heroic or Legendary" and "Found a clue" are really delayed....on one I checked my achievements, saw I unlocked it, and got the notification 30 seconds later.

And again, friend online and game invites seem to also have laggy notifications

Swag Saturday: Guitar Hero triple pack and bass pedal {Joystiq}

Sep 27th 2009 1:10PM the moment I was rocking out to RB2 so hard that I hit myself in the face with the drumstick and snapped it in half. Good times.

Xbox Live Top 10 is calm before the ODSTorm {Joystiq Xbox}

Sep 22nd 2009 7:03PM That's very true...

Although I do believe that ODST will be number 1 next week, I doubt that'll remain for long.

Once people finish the single-player, they'll have Firefight and regular multiplayer. However, firefight does not have matchmaking so that'll hurt its numbers, and regular multiplayer counts toward Halo 3, not ODST.

Microsoft lifts Xbox 360 minimum 720p, anti-aliasing mandate for devs {Joystiq}

Ordinarily you cant, but in this instance you can because parent is stating that his Dell that was sub-$200 plays Arkham Asylum better than a 360. False.
