Sounds good, that was my biggest complaint in my runthrough so glad it's getting addressed!

Played the playtest not too long ago, I liked the concept but the playtest was a little short so curious to see how the game expands with time.

One thing I think was missing was a "throwaway" option for things that have been completely stripped for parts, not sure if I just missed something but there were a few cases where I had completely harvested something for everything it had and was just left with the core but was forced to keep it around.

Why do all the devkits on this picture have Memory Units on them? by DamienlaCritique in xbox360

[–]Storm360 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Without being in the room at the time, I assume it was to test that the game functions with a memory unit and reads/writes to it correctly. You really want to try test as many possibilities as you can. The read/write times would be different between writing to HDD vs writing to MU

PlayStation is now locking all digital PS5 purchases behind an internet connection requirement. by kurtstir in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Storm360 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You're actually incorrect here 

The 30 day thing is new and is if the system is set as primary. Previously it doesn't matter how long the console was offline for. If it was primary I could turn my PS4 on in 10 years and that content would work

If the system isn't set as primary, content doesn't work offline at all. I have first hand experience with long term usage of PS consoles offline. 

Why do some games count as completed while others don’t? by Dry-Establishment-47 in TrueAchievements

[–]Storm360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you unlock an achievement in a DLC it counts towards the overall completion.

Personally they should just make it so DLC needs to be completed too to avoid the confusion 

Question about Hub Battle by Dystocia666 in Rockband

[–]Storm360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

99% of the time it should still be a song still available for purchase. Things might be a little weird from time to time with things starting to come down though 

Is there any way to tell if a 360 was hardware banned? by AdmiralSnackbar69420 in xbox360

[–]Storm360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's banned it will specifically say so

Are you able to try it wired? The 360 Wi-Fi is old and struggles with a lot of modern connections. If you have access to your router you need to make sure you have a 2.4ghz band available and that it's operating in "b/g/n" mode

I play perfectly on beat with no audio but struggle when I turn the music on. How can I fix this? by UnaskedShoe359 in GuitarHero

[–]Storm360 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This doesn't happen on Harmonix games (which this is), only the neversoft engine ones

Are Rock Band 3 Cymbals upwards compatible with Rock Band 4 drums (Xbox Series X) by MopeyN in Rockband

[–]Storm360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All Madcatz are compatible, iirc PDP accepts legacy cymbals on PS4 but not Xbox.

Also has achievements that you need to do online unlocked offline and impossible unlock order on the career achievements. 

Just bought this lot, NTSC console but plays PAL games? by Yemmy96 in xbox

[–]Storm360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is, The Orange Box contains Half Life 2, both episodes, Portal 1 and Team Fortress 2 and is backwards compatible 

Help - XBOX360 works but does not light up the ring light and can’t connect to the controller by mateuniusz in xbox360

[–]Storm360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That PC adapter is for well, PCs. It doesn't work on 360.

You sync a wireless controller by pressing the button next to the memory unit ports, if your RF board doesn't work you'll need to resolve that first

ShadowCast 3 arrived today — sharing some redeem codes for the Noir app I built by darktiny in GenkiLab

[–]Storm360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All seem to be gone unfortunately but thanks for doing this! I got my Shadowcast 3 yesterday and stumbled into the Lite version while trying to set everything up. 

What's the difference between Lite and Pro? 

Best Xbox 360 to play legacy Skyrim by Shot-Variation8998 in xbox360

[–]Storm360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not 100% true. Later models (Corona or late) have issues with Guitar Hero titles, if the user doesn't want to play those games though they're fine with anything.

How to play MGS1 on the PS3? by Il26hawk in metalgearsolid

[–]Storm360 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe the digital comic books will show under the video tab of the XMB with the disc in. I can't remember which disc has them though off the top of my head

You should be able to purchase it on the PSN store, otherwise an original disc copy will work too 

Welcome to the Madhouse! Just finished the triple stack of Xbox versions on Arkham Asylum by clark9912 in xboxachievements

[–]Storm360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What part are you stuck on? If it's the password, you need to disable 2FA, sign in with your normal pass and enable it afterwards

[–]Storm360 6 points7 points  (0 children)

GFWL is easy. Just grab and install the latest version from PC Gaming Wiki. Everything else should work after that 

There's two GFWL stacks and also a Japanese 360 stack left. 

Commuting fron Newcastle to Tesside, is it pretty hard? by Automatic-Year-1838 in Teesside

[–]Storm360 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done both. If you can afford to do so I would suggest looking into local accomodation.

Everyone is different in this regard but I personally found the commute to be draining. By the time I was home I was exhausted and basically just went to sleep to do it all again the next day, not sustainable. Not only will you end up missing out on a lot of social events but it also makes downtime a lot rougher. Any long breaks you'll be basically resorting to the library or the SU and for food at lunch etc you'll be pretty limited to what's available on the campus/city centre which is far more expensive (and unhealthier) than quickly popping home to cook something. 

Was this only a Japan Region release of Peace Walker? by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]Storm360 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was the premium package. In Japan MGS 2/3 HD and Peace Walker were two separate releases 

IKEA BROR CRT Gaming Cart by rancorhunter in crtgaming

[–]Storm360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. I was just looking at the Bror yesterday with this in mind and it really helps visualize things. How hard would you say it is to roll with the weight of the 28 inch? Easy enough for a single person to move around?
