I've found that I'm fine so long as I'm the one controlling the rotating, because I can anticipate the movement and the direction. But when I'm on something that's rotating on its own, it affects me differently. It's the same way when I'm in a car; I get motion sick as a passenger but not as a driver.

Not using hdmi. This is not a slim. Bought four years in. Is it weird to have no hiccups at 90 minutes in?
I'm not seeing any problems either (60gb OG 360). The ony time the frame rate dips is when it auto-saves but that's only for a split second.
I saw the consistent stuttering (1 or 2 frames dropped each second at a set interval) on both 720p and 1080p right from the get-go in the trial. I would be kinda shocked if there were people NOT getting this stutter.
The area transitions also seem to stutter a bit (different, heavier stutter, like blocked HD access or something) on both.
The area transitions also seem to stutter a bit (different, heavier stutter, like blocked HD access or something) on both.
So I have three areas on the map I haven't been to yet and I'm missing one cube bit to have all 32 yellow cubes. Still working on anti-cubes -- I have 19 of those. Two artifacts and some... weird block that doesn't show up in my inventory, which I got from the observatory. But this last cube bit is driving me nuts so it has to be in one of the rooms I haven't been in yet.
1) One room is connected to the island with a lone tree on it. I need all 64 cubes to open the door to this room.
2) One room is connected to the 4x4 grid room in the crypt area.
3) And the last room is connected to this art gallery inside a huge building near the clock tower. What do I do in this art gallery to get to the room it's connected to? There are like paintings of areas I've been to and what looks like a furnace. The furnace appears to have an opening I should be able to go through. But I can't. Help please!

Soundtrack of the year most likely.
I was getting a lot of stutter in the demo but not the full game...which is weird. I do get stutter on autosave and on transitions(I'm guessing this is from loads).
Yes.
trying that now, no crash or slow down
I can clip through walls. But that's easy.
But there's nothing there. It says to hear the owls, see the effigy, assemble the parliment, So I've got all 4 owls, went to their statue in the end villiage, and back to where they all stand, and nothing...
Huh. When all four owls landed at the big owl statue in lightning land, a little jingle sounded and a door opened on the back...not sure what's wrong.
Soundtrack of the year in the game of the year,what a coincidence ;P
Yeah, nothing there. Also if I load a game from that room specifically, the camera is super zoomed in

No Feep, you're a bit ahead of me regarding the number translations.
However, I just found my 32nd cube... THE BOILER ROOM CUBE, YEAH BABY.
Figured it out all by myself; I demand cookies, and lots of it.

Your save file should be just fine, but you obviously have a much bigger problem right now.

Sure it's not just part of the game?
I don't think there's a universe where MS would approve of something like that, even in jest.

I'm sure I didn't.
Your savefile should be on your HDD... what Xbox were you using? Unless you're using an old model I thought RROD was non-existant since 2008 Jaspers. :/
I'm seriously LOLing

Probably the best deal at the moment
4GB comes with 12 month Gold card and a choice of game(they're old cheap games).
Went for a swim in the ocean off the lighthouse and after a couple of minutes of going in a single direction and rotating the view at random got lost out there with no way to find land in any direction. Crazy! Eventually went in a direction for long enough that rotating the camera to look forward gave me land I could get out on.

Ending spoilers:

Did Phil Fish just tell me to dealwithit.gif?
Okay, THAT WAS FUCKING STUPID.
First off, grabbed my roommate's 360 and plugged in my hard drive. It worked, sweet, back to the game.
Then I went back to the boiler room and entered the code I had tried DOZENS of times. Still nothing. Again. Still nothing.
This code, and this code only, ONLY WORKS IF YOU USE THE ANALOG STICK FOR DIRECTIONAL INPUT.
Fucking stupid.
Anyway, 64 cubes. Time to see what lies behind the final door...

There were moments when I was playing for review where the bumpers stopped working completely to rotate the camera. There are very serious technical issues in this game. As evidenced by, you know, hundreds of posts in this thread.

This game just reminded me how crappy the 360 d-pad is. Its weird playing a 2D game with an analog stick, but I found it to be better than using the d-pad...
I'm starting to lose patience with Fez. After the first 15 minutes or so, there's really no learning curve: it just starts throwing cryptic shit at you that's not properly explained. I'm going past area after area with stuff I have no idea what to do with, and the way they're just plopped in with no context does not make me want to figure them out.
I'm also really struggling with world navigation. Between the world map and the travel methods, I have no idea how to get back to places I want to return to. I just sort of wander.
Some great ideas and presentation here, but the execution is beginning to wear thin.

I am not finding the world map too bad. You know what room (cube) is connected to what so you can always go to where you need to go. And so you don't waste time going in doors you don't need to, try to match the picture of the room (cube) you are trying to go to with the preview picture that pops up when you are by a door. Didn't mean to be condescending with this post, just trying to help

I understood the world map and travel mechanics like 20minutes in. I personally don't understand how one can be confused for so long.

Played through the demo... Can't say I was real impressed by any of it. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for this kind of game.
