What I mean by this, is that the controller won't charge batter packs. IT IS NOT THE BATTERY PACK ITSELF.

how do I know this? Because my battery packs, when charged via another controller, work as intended. Then once fully charged, I can put it into the non-charging controller, and it will work of the charged battery. So what's wrong is the charge connection on this controller. How do I fix it?

Im not a cheap skate so I wouldnt know about that part of it..celebate

my dad's worried there's only 1 and he wants to save it for himself.

it's his console. I just want silver to talk to friends, but i know if you get silver, you get gold, at least for the first. So if there's multiple freebies, then I can get silver.

So I'm not a cheap skate. Besides.. I like my gamerscore.

how many months/accounts worth of trial gold do you get when you buy a neww 360 pro? (just got one) how exactly does it work?

Don't want to waste the gold yet. gotta get some worthy games to do that first.

So when you get a new 360, you supposedly get a month of free live yes?

how exactly does that work? because right now all I want to do is sign up for silver, at least for now, since I don't have any good online multiplayer games yet (expensive).

is it you create a live account on your 360 and they automatically give you a month of gold? or do you have to ask them for it first?

if halo wars is anything near Age of Empires 2, and they make the controls for xbox work..

then I shall get it. But not before the gamespot review.:D

Personally, I would think that getting any of the Avatar game achievements would be embarrassing, unless, you were like 5 years old, and didn't just play for the points.

cause spending money just for the cheap gamer points? no matter how little you spend.. it's still kinda lame.

Thanks guys, now I might be able to kill some locust on my own system. :D

minus the fun of.. the graphics, but hey, can't have everything.

again, thanks.
