My dad owns a disc of one of my favorite tv shows that I want to back up (This is illegal I suppose, bite me.) Unfortunately, its a dual-layer DVD disc and I only have single layer DVD-5s. So I have exclude all the menus, extras, etc. and leave just the bare episodes to avoid heavy compression...

Lost Planet is really the only I have that I have fun playing online with other than Star Wars Battlefront where I also get lag in. I don't have Halo 3 or anything else much to compare it to. Lost Planet doesn't show any kind of connection status like Halo 3 does and doesn't indicate if you are...

I just got off several sessions of Lost Planet and each time I entered a match, people ended up yelling at me for my lag. I'm not using a wireless connection at all, I have my ethernet cord hardwired straight into my 360. I have 6MB broadband, too. I know this shouldn't be happening, what is...

All of that seems almost likely at this point :rolleyes: Funny video though.

I didn't like the water in Oblivion that much. Looked like oil. No one has said Far Cry Instincts Predator. The water reallllyyy impressed me, with the way how it perfectly reflected light and sparkled on the surface.

Guess I missed out. Sorry guys. I did the honorable thing and searched first and found nothing about this. :confused:

Ok so, I downloaded the ad-supported Far Cry from Ubisoft (I am a member) through File Shack. When I try to install it, it asks for my account username and password. I put it in and it tells me it's only available for US users only. This is frustrating, because I am a US user. Anybody had...

Alright well thanks guys I think I will consider the Xbox version after all.... I downloaded the demo off of Steam but it freezes on the loading. It boots up okay but as soon as I choose new game and it starts loading, it freezes at a little more than halfway. I googled it and I can't find a...

I am inspired to buy Half Life 2 after playing HL2 Ep 1 with a friend. I'm short on money so I'm more of a console player so all I have is my laptop and 360. I know it's not much of a demanding game for a PC but I know with this laptop I won't be able to crank up the visuals that much. And I...

Both Star Wars Battlefront games looked waay better on Xbox than on PS2.

oh yeah!!! I loved the original Red Factions...My friends and I would play this together even more than Halo. Great multiplayer. A current gen RF would be just jaw dropping.

Wow you can get ebony armor at lvl 15? I just got there so I'll be hunting around :D

Jeez...that's what happened with me exactly. Even the same game, haha.

Umm.... Could I be an anomaly?... All I play is FPS...between Battlefield and Halo I play no other type of genre. Yet my vision gets progressively worse EVERY year. Last year my vision was around a -5.5, now I have a borderline astigmatism with my right eye a -7 and my left a -6. The eye...

This too I think will make me want to build a gaming computer (I'm only on a laptop). I would choose this over Halo 3 no questions asked.

I have a nightjob : / I'm also too tired/lazy to call in the day...its my fault really. I thought they had 24/7 tech support?

Mine has a disk drive problem. It whirs and clicks like crazy with Oblivion and then goes unreadable after about an hour of playing. It does the same with Lost Planet and Dead Rising. Could it possibly be because they are sort of high performance games? Well whatever....the warranty expired 3...

I think 1366x768 looks the best to me. It's the highest resolution I can set it to where I won't get black bars or have to play around with switching it to widescreen or normal. I know a lot of others use that resolution too. The only other one that i think looks great 1280x1024...but I get...

i'm using 1366x768 over VGA on a 20" 1680x1050 pc monitor and movies really don't look that great. Is the 360 even upscaling it at all? i compared it to a dvd 720p upscaler and it looked way better than the 360...i heard that the 360's dvd playback is supposed to be great over VGA...

I put mine vertical. Stays a lot cooler for me. I used to put it horizontal, but when I took it off my TV the bottom was pretty warm, like others said.

"Jack Thompson is messing with Microsoft, I wouldn't be surprised if he just disappeared one day..." That comment made me laugh. He sort of reminds me of my principal in elementary school for some reason. His weekly letters to parents sounded so much like Jack Thompson's, complaining about...

I'm on the part where you have to switch the poison with the guy's medicine in that fort. I also took up the little side mission from one of the brothers where you have to kill that person in Bogwater named Scar-something...can't rememeber I'm having a ton of trouble getting into the Thieves...

"turbo bastard mode"....haha That's pretty funny...I thought it was the 360 that needed more ventilation than the PS3.

Oblivion.....I wish i could walk through the forest or countryside without choppy movement from the loading areas. The loading areas aren't really a bug but it behaves like one and it can get so annoying. BF Modern Combat was pretty buggy too. If someone fell out of a tower or something, they...

Donkey Kong Country for super nintendo. Along with Super Star Wars.

I've really given up on PC gaming too. I only have a laptop, and it's no gaming laptop either. So replacing the video card is out of the question. That's why I got a 360. There is something about PC gaming though that is worth it, especially for multiplayer at no cost (BF2142). Being a...

Oh yes...Republic Commando and Unreal Championship They read my mind.

The 1360x768 resolution looks the best for me. 1280x1024 just looks weird to me, especially on widescreen. On Normal it looks fine but when I play my games it gives me the little black bars. I have a 20" screen and since it's a little small I want to utilize all space available. 1360x768...

Well, I can't speak for everyone but I love the one I have. It's the x20Gamer...from what i understand it seems that the 22" version is the one that gives everyone trouble. So far I've watched DVDs on it and used it for the 360 and it looks really really great. I haven't tried HDTV yet and...

Return to Castle Wolfenstein for the PS2 Thank god it was a rental. They tried to make it like the originals and combine it with the next generation PS2 at the time (haha). It was just so boring and repetitive. And yes, you still start out with only your pistol and knife. That part...

Ha ha wow They need to use physics engines like that in games more often.

Agh.....I also just upgraded!! I was anxious to try DVI for the first time, since I've been a laptop user for almost 8 years.

If there are any PS3 problems...what are they?

That trailer was like 20 seconds long I wasnt very impressed...but hey I'm sure it will make up for it

This is stupid...can't we just view it whenever we want when it releases? Oh well...it'll be on You Tube within like 2 seconds of it coming out.

When I was standing in line in EB Games once, some guy brought 3 Xbox games in and was offered 50 cents up front, and 75 cents in store credit. I lol'ed at that.

I agree also...The party games and kid friendly stuff stopped appealing to me when...well...I wasn't a kid anymore. Of course I don't speak for everyone, its just me. Around the 14 year old time frame I did start getting into serious gaming and kinda forgot about Mario Party. Although like the...

Many older players may prefer the Wii because when they were growing up, they probably played NES or SNES and the Wii brings them back to those old school times. ;) I don't know though, I only wanted a Wii for like... a day because i thought for some stupid reason it was going to get all the...

Don't see really what the advantage is in this at all. The only way i would buy it is if my 360 was a complete piece of crap and I needed a new one...and wanted the HDMI and HDD. Other than that...if it's working perfectly, don't download from MP, no 1080p capable TV...it would be a...

This makes me feel a little better about my impatience about buying a 360 before this comes out. :) There is nothing it that can do that will be better than what a premium can do except bigger HDD and HDMI. I have no use for HDMI anyways...like I'll even be able to tell between 720p and 1080p...
