Chuck Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Caris told you about our readalongs then huh no i was there!
1UP Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 one thing Im really angry about. it looks sweet in HD tv, but when you put it back to normal AV, the picture is worse than an Xbox game. WTF is up with that? I find it totally outrageous.
Guest Jordan Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 That is one TV that doesn't lack the plastic. And this is what i'll be playing my 360 on soon: 19" Widescreen Acer TFT monitor
Owen Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 one thing Im really angry about. it looks sweet in HD tv, but when you put it back to normal AV, the picture is worse than an Xbox game. WTF is up with that? I find it totally outrageous. I agree with that. It seems unfair that you only get the full experience of a Xbox 360 when playing on a HDTV! I'm wondering what Fight Night Round 3 looks like on a normal TV, because it sure looks superb on a HDTV!
1UP Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 my setup : peace: I thought only premiums come with chrome disc trays? Unless you like sold your har drive? xD
Chuck Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I thought only premiums come with chrome disc trays? Unless you like sold your har drive? xD yea, i got it off Caris he kept the hard drive and got it for core price. gettin a hard drive mid week though!!!
Guest Jordan Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Heres some pics of my set up (please excuse the crappy lighting)
The3rdChildren Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I really, REALLY need to do something with this room. There's so much decoration-related stuff to do in here it's insane. See how many unfinished decorating jobs you can spot.
The3rdChildren Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I love your DBZ figurines. It's nice to find someone who likes DBZ too. You can find those super cheap on eBay. I think there's another set available now but I have like, no room for any more toys at the moment.
Cheapshot Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Kudos for sticking with your Dreamcast there Jordan, it's still my most played Console.
Guest Jordan Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I don't even think it works anymore... poor Dreamcast how i love thee.
Stocka Posted March 18, 2006 Author Posted March 18, 2006 I also love those DBZ figurines. Gorgeous setup I have a 32 inch Widescreen for my gaming(had it for a few years now) and it works wonders. As much as I want an HDTV I can't see myself buying one anytime soon, as not only do I not have the money but it isn't necessary...yet.
The3rdChildren Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Who needs a HD TV when you have the IB FIZZY? I'd post a picture of mine next to a bottle of Pepsi Max, but I can't trump Irn-Bru. Plus Pepsi Max has the distinction of being rather horrible. Kind of how I'd imagine diabetic piss to taste.
Stocka Posted March 19, 2006 Author Posted March 19, 2006 BF2 Official Site: "If you want to experience all-out 24 player Xbox Live action in eye-bursting next-gen graphics, make sure that you download the Battlefield 2: Modern Combat demo, which will be available for download over Xbox Live Marketplace from March 24."
Meik Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 I'm not sure I want to download it if it's "eye-bursting". Good news though.
m_fergy Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Xbox 360 hacked very sad news i hope microsoft bring an update out soon http://xbox360.qj.net/Xbox-360-Hacked-Backup-Discs-Now-Playable-/pg/49/aid/11334#comments
Owen Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 A guy has a review copy of Oblivion over on http://www.xbox.com forums. Keep a eye on the topic as he is going to stream a video of him playing it, not to sure if i want to see it though, kinda would ruin it. So far he thinks the game is very very good. No tearing, only slows down when auto-saving and the graphics are wonderful, also i'm pretty positive someone stated he has a normal TV. Cannot wait! Lets hope we all get the game thursday, who-ever purchased it on here and through Gameplay! So whats everyone going to do when they first get it? I reckon i have a little walk around the forests and to the ocean (i'm positive there is one). I really hope it doesn't end-up being linear. We don't need to follow any paths do we? we can do what we want, walk where we want? Nothing like Fable ended up i hope!
Haden Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Oh man Owen This is a Elder Scrolls game. If you want non linear you have come to the right place. Although there is a main quest you can literally do whatever the hell you want for as long as you want. Seperate guilds turning into a vampire, just exploring. Wonderful stuff.
1UP Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 lol, I think we all know that! But they said Oblivion is more linear than Morrowind, so that like new comers will find it easier to get into. But it will still be free roaming and stuff, but it'll tell you how to do stuff and things so you don't have to spend hours figuring out stuff.
Hero-of-Time Posted March 19, 2006 Posted March 19, 2006 Im still not sold on Oblivion. My mate got Morrowind for his Xbox and he was completely overwhelmed by it in terms of not knowing what to do. I will wait til some of you guys pick it up and give impressions as I dont want to waste 40 quid on a game I wont play...yes im cheap!
