For all you older gamers with families, apt dwellers, and kids with noise sensitive parents: Turtle Beach Ear Force x3 - $79.99 http://www.amazon.com/Ear-Force-X3-Headset-Wireless-Pc/dp/B000VHY3GO/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1231107606&sr=8-1 This was $97 yesterday at Amazon...

Buy.com has it up for $34.99 shipped (34.99 - 10 = 24.99 w/GCO), and Amazon also has it at $34.99 right now. Blowing out the first revision to make way for the new blue one I guess... Navy

Hey Josh, ;) I'll catch ya at work and talk more about it there with ya. I've seen something like it. Navy

Howdy, hire me! :) Richard Meyer XNA - Xbox richiem(at)microsoft.com The above post is my personal views and opinions, not that of my employer. :eek: :cool:

Ever play Black? Short of the Quakes and a few others maybe...one of the most visceral in your face games I've played in awhile. Navy

LOL, out into the world ya go. Have fun! :) Navy

Yea, audio can get really hardcore and a bit overwhelming. Home theater in a box (full system with everything you need in it) is looked down alot, but like the poster above me said...it'll still blow away everything you've heard before. It's also alot easier and cheaper. The Onkyo Home...

Nice. :cool: I have to agree with him. As much as I love Oblivion, Morrowind (first Elder Scroll game I played) will always have a special place with me. Navy

Yep, they extended launch Xboxes to 6 month warranties (because something was indeed wrong...memory I personally suspect). I think they'll hook you up. Call 'em! Navy

I'm confused, you have the regular HD right (Premium 360)? MS Support will instruct you to keep the HD and just send back the console. Yer good--they'll do ya right. :) 1-800-4MYXBOX. Navy

There are addon packs >100mb. I don't believe there are any game patches that size... From Xbox.com: I wouldn't do it that way (HD ftw), but it's certainly possible. Navy

That's correct. Core users patch to memory cards. Navy

I'm pretty sure if I recall correctly... a HDMI port is relatively cheap. The only real cost involved is in the licensing of the HDCP keys and that's not an additional $100 per box type expense. Navy

It's off their front page now. So it was an incorrect figure of 5 mil instead of 50 for approximately 15 minutes and was corrected at a point when it has less impact. It's possible its just an honest mistake, but I sure see that sort of stuff too frequently for that I think. Kinda...

Yeah, look at the source of that trailer: http://www.halo2mmmods.com/. It's clearly the Halo 2 engine (PC) modded to heck and back posted to Google Video as some BS Halo 3 trailer. Navy

It's intentional. No way that's an accident... That's fine if it were an ad, but it's misrepresented as news in an official-like manner. That said, I think this could use a lock which I suspect is pending. ;) After re-reading what I wrote, it's more about media in the context of the...

Were they on mouse/kb or were they forced to use controllers? Navy

Mainstream media SUCKS. http://www.gamespot.com/news/6150398.html Specifically: "Oops...we accidentally released a massively erroneous figure to thousands and thousands of people on a high traffic website". Sure, that grossly incorrect misfigure on JUST that console is an accident...

Teh demos? Heck no, all the demos are free. :) Even to the non-paying (Silver) XBL subscribers. And Slart, yeah, it's the same rate. Navy

Live is 6 bucks a month (you can also pay annually and/or find a year card in a package deal with a good game many times). Normally I'm the type that'd say a warranty is a pure profit gimmick. Because these "bleeding edge" consoles (360, PS3) are pushing the space/heat issue so hard...

Perhaps the Wii will have games with HDR, but that SS is not indictative of HDR. Navy

Anyone else manage to pull this down and check it out? It hadn't really caught my eye, but I downloaded it and played it on a whim and I think it's pretty friggin' sweet! :eek: Navy

I concur and I've been suspecting this for awhile. That new CEO that took over (first foreign CEO, British guy) has been essentially cleaning house and paring Sony down to its strengths. It sounds like there's been alot of corporate bloat and out of touch management since the PS2 launched...

If you have HD, I'd highly recommend going 360. GRAW and Oblivion (even if you aren't an RPG guy) would be the two titles to pick up. Waiting for the PS3 to compare has merits (especially since E3 may shed some more light), but on the other hand the 360 is here and now and delivering at a high...

Yeah, I concur. If you can't/don't want a 360, go with a PS2. The Xbox is ungloriously being rush EOL'd and still costs alot relative to the PS2's new $99 price. Sony's still developing some big name stuff for the PS2 (GoW 2, SOCOM4, etc). Being the partisan I am tho, I'd go 360 if you can...

Lol, I hear ya man. I liked teh "duke" as well and it wasn't nearly as bad as the PR it got. I just threw it in because of popular perception. Navy

QFT. Navy

Because multi-million dollar corporations never mess up :rolleyes: NES Powerglove? 32x? Xbox "Duke" controller? PS3? He has a right to an opinion just as much as you. Stevie's already doing a fine job putting words in his mouth and setting up fallacious straw-man arguments. No need...

So let me get this straight: You dislike Halo. Because you dislike something, that makes it stupid and WRONG! Therefore, your brilliant point goes, Halo is stupid and wrong! :rolleyes: Good grief. Good luck in life. :(

This is true. It would have been just a good shooter on the PC. I think it became an order better with a big screen, couch, and a 5.1 surround system. If you played it like that (me :cool: ), it was a movie-like production with great gameplay and great immersion. Covenant dropships rumbling...

Totally can understand that--and I'm taking nothing away from the HLs because I love and have 'em both. HL is a beloved granddaddy of it all IMO. Just because the average Halo audience is...flaky...tho... that shouldn't take anything away from the actual product. Navy

Halo's kinda become a victim of its own success, and the maturity level of its average players is woefully low. That, IMHO, should not muttle the fact that the Halos are technical and artistic masterpieces. :) They're not hugely original, but the design, production values, and gameplay...

No offense (and no, I don't want to get myself banned :eek: ), but why do you think everyone's taking shots at him? All the :p and sarcastic remarks in just about every thread are just as disrespectful and provocative IMO, and I think this ground swell kinda confirms the sentament. Navy

So can we now found the Knights of Wii? :cool: Wii! Navy

lol

Heh, this is really bugging you, isn't it? Navy

Ferrari doesn't tie with pee. :D Navy

Dremora Lord (Lord, not regular!) Lich Xivali Spider Daedra Gloom Wraith maybe? Think those are some of the big ones... Navy

What's more, I'm watching HConsole right now (Kyle?)... who just went DB :cool: Methinks teh Steve found that questline most rewarding and tipped off the rest of the [H] bunker. I haven't finished 100% yet, but I can't imagine the DB section can be topped. That was just inspired quest...
