I beat the game by taking revenge, no problem. I then went back to a previous save to try to do the deal, and when the time comes, I cannot get my speed boat under Jacob's helicopter before I run out of time no matter what I do. I jump right into the boat and gun it the whole way, but I always miss getting there. What the hell?

I had that problem too. It took me a couple of tries to reach the helicopter. I think it helps if you try and drive the boat near the shore and cut corners. Also, I dont know if you are or not but don't hold up or down on the control stick. Just let keep it level and you should reach the chopper with no problems. Just don't get hit by a rocket!

I got the first ever RRoD right after I activated the mission called "Meltdown".

Game froze 4-5 times and I had a bad feeling... now the system won't start up because of the Red Rings of Death... frustrating.

I purchased a 2 year warranty with Best Buy though when I got this system in Sept 2007 for NHL 08. So I can just take the system to Best Buy and get a new one right? Anyone know if I can keep the hard drive or something? I don't want to lose my save files >_<

It just completely sucks because I've took really good care of the system. It's out in a wide open space, and I've done everything I could to keep it from overheating and this **** still happens. Definitely unacceptable coming from Microsoft, but what can you do? =\

Yeah, thanks. I was cutting corners before but I was pushing forward on the stick. Once I didn't do that I got there first try.

That sucks, TooCool

Yes take out the HD, Microsoft has said they are not responsible if something happens to your HD . From what I remember BB will send it to get repaired and not replace it, that happened to my Niece and her Itouch, she wanted a new one and they said they could only fix the one she had.

Good Luck

oh well at least you had the warranty. Microsoft has a 3 year warranty on the red rings last I heard.

It was a no brainer for me. My 360 has been acting kinda funny, so I went PS3 version all the way.
