and the video of pgr3 http://savefile.com/files/6349385 eh... bad cam quality

I'll have to check that, but I know that mine is different from threedaysdwn. Mine has a larger bottom area (where the speaker is) and in general seems larger. Possibly because if I remember right, I got it earlier this year... I think the one he has is a newer model.

*goes to check model*

Okay so this helps... The back of the TV says: Feb 2004 Model: HLN617W

Mine is an HL-R6167W - Same size, same resolution, but a newer DLP chip and a few other minor tweaks.

what is your job?

I'm a software engineer (test architect). I don't make that much really (ie. not 6 figures... not yet anyway) but I'm also a single 21-year-old. Not a lot of expenses :) And I got the TV on a weekend when Fry's and Best Buy were having a price war. I was planning to get the 50" model but the 61" ended up being cheaper!

we work for the same company but on different states and different divisions... and I'd never meet him and it seems like he makes a ton more than I do...

I doubt it. But I don't know what you do :p Where is Bungieland? :)

I hope your 360 doesn't over heat. I don't think it's a good idea to have it crammed into the bottom of that tv stand.

No problems at all with mine. And I've had some long sessions of Kameo/GW/COD2. It has room around it down there, I'm not really worried. It doesn't get nearly as hot as my receiver (big black box to the right of it). Apparently what most of what people think is "fan noise" on the 360 is actually the disc drive.

so worth it zack, so worth it

Dont get me wrong, it looks so sweet.

If I was loaded and had money to my neck then, yeah it would be so worth it..

But then again, $150 for a peice of plastic... with the only thing different is a little paint? Ahhh.... :no:

And esco, by the looks of it, 4 contollers, all the games... yeah your loaded...

Hey, some of you are so lucky with your massive HD displays :( *is so jealous*

Basically, Ive got my 360 connected to my PC monitor via the VGA Cable, Im going to be getting a Samsung Widescreen HD LCD Display this christmas and it has a lot of inputs, including DVI, VGA, Component and Scart. I have both the VGA Cable and the component HD-AV cable that came with the 360 (Prem. Pack). Which cable do you recommend I use with my setup for the best quality?

The LCD TV I'm going to be getting is the Samsung SM730MW 17" Widescreen LCD TV/Monitor

http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/in...oduct_uid=81476

The native resolution is 1280x768, that is 720p isnt it?

Anyways, whatever advice you guys have that be great, I'll post a pic of my 360 setup once I got this all sorted :)

Thanks! :)

    • Who uses Outlook anymore? Seriously. When you have open-source and completely free clients such as Thunderbird, Outlook is really obsolete now.
    • "Low price of just $340" ? I don't think so, especially when these same memories were less than $100 just last year before the AI craze started.
    • Spyro: A Realm Beyond revealed by Toys for Bob, the first new entry after almost 20 years by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a surprise reveal from Activision that wasn't related to Call of Duty. The Microsoft-owned publisher revealed a brand-new Spyro game, confirming the return of the series that last had a brand-new entry appear nearly 20 years ago. Watch the new Spyro: A Realm Beyond trailer above, which shows off a new look for the iconic dragon. While most of the trailer is a rendered cinematic, the very end does feature a snippet of gameplay captured on PC. The development team working on this project is Toys for Bob. This is the same studio that delivered the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remasters that brought back the original games for fans. "We are huge Spyro fans ourselves and we are so excited that 'the adventure continues'," says Toys For Bob Studio Head, Paul Yan. "I know the wait has been excruciating but we’re so thrilled to finally come out of stealth and confirm that a new Spyro game is indeed what we’ve been up to these past few years." As is evident from the trailer, Spyro has grown since his previous adventures, and that means he is better at flying too. Players will be able to fly around with freedom for the first time in the series this time, and not just inside mini-levels. "In Spyro: A Realm Beyond, Spyro will experience the freedom of true dragon flight," adds Yan. "He’s small, but mighty, so we had to do a lot of different experiments to explore how he could be both nimble and still be very physical when actively pushing his way through the air." The studio promises the return of whimsical worlds to explore, with plenty of treasure and activities to find. There is a new antagonist coming in to threaten this peaceful world too. Moreover, Tom Kenny is returning to voice Spyro. Spyro: A Realm Beyond is releasing sometime in Spring 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
