Editorial: The broken, sputtering launch of Battlefield 3 online multiplayer

Oct 28th 2011 7:02PM (Joystiq)
If you haven't learned by now that EA multiplayer doesn't work very well launch week, then you haven't been an Xbox Live gamer very long. Their dedicated servers ALWAYS have problems. I'm not sure what's wrong with their server farm administrators that they can't figure out how to do capacity planning. All i know is if I constantly screwed up server implementations like EA does, I'd be out of a job.

Walmart and Best Buy cease used games trade-in operations

Feb 2nd 2010 12:33PM (Joystiq)
Best Buy is still doing trade-ins. THey've changed their trade-in webpage though, you can take only certain things in-store (games not one of them) and they must have been purchased from best buy to begin with. Or you can continue to trade using their online webpage which accepts a lot more items than in-store without the purchased at best buy limitation, you just have to mail the item to them to get your git card which they supply the prepaid label for still.

How to use any headset with the 360

Dec 2nd 2005 3:14PM (Joystiq Xbox)
You can plug in any cellphone style headset or xbox1 headset to the 360 controller. You loose the hardware mute and volume controls BUT you can control that through software. Just hit the dashboard button on the controller to bring up the sub-menu and from there you can mute and adjust the volume. No soldering required.
