    XBox One Owners' Thread (First Impressions, Thoughts, You Happy?)

    This. There's a constant of only so many can be produced at one time. Factor in Sony's 48 countries to MS' 13 and it becomes obvious why there are so many xb1s on the shelves in the US. If you look at vgchartz.com you'd notice that xb1 is consistently outselling ps4 in the states while being...

    Droid X battery life

    From your home screen, hit the menu button, then go into settings --> Battery Manager --> Battery Profile and then tick the 'Battery Saver Mode'. What this does is disable 3g/Wifi/GPS if the phone is inactive for more than 30 minutes (without this checked, they actually remain on constantly...

    Dell U2410

    looking to pick up a u2410 to go along side my benq fp241wz. The only thing is, is that I'd like to get it from dell.com (for warrenty issues) for ~$450 or less if possible. I've seen them go on sale from time to time and even seen some dell coupons on sites like slickdeals.net and what not, in...

    Who else is getting the Droid X?

    In response to #1: They never promised. (knowing samsung, that to me sounds like they are covering their rears to not lose customers) In response to #2: Samsung has winmo 7 phones and dual core phones (both android and winmo 7) in the rumor mill for this holiday season. If this is their...

    Who else is getting the Droid X?

    lmao, i'd like to see cellphones rely on LG for AMOLED screens.... you'll be waiting until next June. bottom line is that Samsung is the only "promoted" (does that word make you feel better?) AMOLED screen manufacturer. They currently have plans for a new production plant (or 2, I think)...

    Who else is getting the Droid X?

    At the end of the day it's still a Samsung phone. I feel the same way as Iodingi. Given Samsung's past, I feel much more comfortable with Motorola. Samsung has a history of abandoning it's hardware to focus on the next best thing. With LTE phones projected to be on hand by the holiday season...

    Who else is getting the Droid X?

    so released in august and you'll receive it by november? i realize samsung is hording amoled screens for themselves, but they are also the only manufacturer left making them (and releasing across 2 or 3 major networks simultaneously). just seems like it could potentially be the incredible...

    Who else is getting the Droid X?

    let's be honest. the galaxy s posts I've seen in here are far from accurate. also want to note that Samsung has stated that all galaxy s phones will be upgradable to 2.2. For all we know, that means by next year, *cough* HTC *cough*. Droid X has already confirmed to have 2.2 OTA updates in...

    The Droid X

    This and the droid2 are rumored to be running a 1ghz OMAP processor in addition to having a dedicated GPU. Hence why the quandrant scores have been off the charts for this thing. I'm also excited to hear that there is system downclocking going on to save battery when processor cycles aren't...

    The Droid X

    Droid X is an absolutely beautiful phone. Love the size, the speed and the hardware to this thing. I've been holding off on my verizon upgrade, but I feel pretty confident that I know what I'll be using it on now...:D

    Can you only be REALLY good at a game with no life?

    the "no life" comment doesn't hold up like it used to (10 years ago). here's my reasoning: Fundamental game concepts have been around for a while time now. People that started with the original starcraft and earlier (dune II), have a very firm grasp on the rts genre and have noticed that they...

    Bad Company 2

    haha, no. mortar lasts approximately 5 seconds. most people don't defuse sitting in one spot. i circle the m-com and hardly ever get hit while defusing. there are times on maps where they help. picking off groups of attackers or picking apart the defense. but the truth is they're called...

    Rage: Who's excited?

    Hope PC sales of BFBC2 change his mind. The only reason that MW2 sold like it did was simply because it was modern warfare (we won't see those kinds of sales again from another MW, this installment killed all excitement for future installments). What I get a kick out of is the fact that he...

    Come see our latest creation

    Like stated before.. it's not hate, everyone is just upset they were let down. If this thing had any semblance of an underlying os I'd buy one in a heartbeat. Guess what though, it's a $600+ content distribution system (itunes... bleh). Apple is typically innovating and ahead of the curve, this...

    But MBP now or wait until tablet comes out?

    His point is valid, his facts are not. Most people have a 3 inch "touch-gesture tablet" (you sound like apple sheep when you say that... next thing you'll tell me this is "magical") in their pocket. At the very least, the one in said pockets has SMS, SD, camera and can be used for tethering...

    Need a new brawler: Bayonetta or Darksiders?

    while they're both action games, they both are very different gameplay: bayonetta = dmc darksiders = gow (minus QTEs) + zelda-like temple puzzles with that said, i'm personally fond of any game that incorporates zelda-like puzzles decently, so my choice is darksiders.

    How do I improve w/ the gamepad (FPS)?

    my advice is going to be a little different. like you i was a long time pc fps player, i'd like to consider myself rather decent to. without going into too much detail, i was a huge comp player. i was in twl-alpha and cal-i way back when those existed. i can twitch with a mouse to an area that...

    Modern Warfare 2 + party chat lock out = The Suck

    Second. After re-reading his posts I realized he's just a troll. His arguments lack any kind of intellectual backing and he continually reiterates his "cheaters" topic, which I may add that not a single other post in this thread has claimed to be an issue. If I were to guess, he's some mid...

    Modern Warfare 2 + party chat lock out = The Suck

    What's so difficult to understand about what I said. It is gone, having it available in free-for-all, 3rd person and co-op modes != still having party chat. It's gimped, IW gimped it so that you could experience "their game". How is playing the mini game, known as mute 95% of your server, how...

    Modern Warfare 2 + party chat lock out = The Suck

    wow... this thread is hilarious the people who are happy to have party chat gone: 1) don't have friends to be with in party chat "team games such as halo suck when you're the only one not in a party" 2) are complete imbeciles "let's see you get 8 person party chat on cellphones" most...

    About unopen games

    afaik most b&m stores that sell games require some kind of receipt even for store credit. if i had to guess, you took advantage of one of the many buy 2 get 1 free deals and are looking to scam mw2 out of it. for this reason alone, 99% of retailers won't except it (this used to be a common...

    Skipping or Buying Madden This Year?

    yes to the monopolistic question. and no to buying it. played the demo, fumbled on 3 out of first 6 plays. is realism at an all time low so it's turning arcade-y? won't buy another madden until they fix the "can never tackle you" move and cpu doesn't force you to fumble every other play. same...

    Laptop with external display questions

    I recently upgraded my laptop to a Dell Latitude E6400. When I am at work I have 2 external displays (20" ws @ 1680x1050) running off of the Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M card. The display on the laptop is 1440x800. What I would like it to do: 1) When the laptop is docked and the lid is not open...

    How many 360 controllers have you smashed?

    only broke one... and i didn't throw it. i was getting upset at the gears of war 2 devs for writing what is in my opinion the crappiest net code since the ps2. i just kind of slapped the controller against my right hand.... well the b, rb and rt buttons no longer work, kind of a useless controller.

    Is Steam down?

    The Guinness Shows They Know Nothing About Video Games

    maybe because it's the top 50 console games of all time? ... anyway, nitpick it all you want, but every game on there contributed ideas to a majority (if not all) of the console games today. i really don't think it's that bad of a list.

    2 Major Capcom Games of 2009

    Netflix on Xbox 360

    if your 360 is connected via wireless, this is probably something you'll want to avoid. movies will rarely get the "HD" render, often times the resolution appears to be less than 480. the movie selection is meh at best.
