encode the episodes to Mpeg, MPEG 2 or WMV ,

install MCE 2005 on the PC,

use media center extender on the 360.

:D Finally got mine. The tracker on Bens Bargains actually worked, placed my order through Circuit City, got my confirmation email, free shipping, and it says I should have it by 1/12 so I can live with that. :D

Thanks man. Me and a coworker of mine got lucky. Sorry about that. As soon as I announced I was trying to get it he hopped on too.

The real screwed up thing is when I was just trying to get the console itself, the site kept saying we have encountered an error. So I went to the main 360 Page and saw they had the bundle available. Once I added that I got it no problems. During checkout with the bundle they actually let you remove the items, but I was scared and thought if I did that maybe it would not work. I also figured I could just exchange whatever game I did not want for what I did want when I get the game. My coworker actually removed everything from the bundle except the console and extra controller, and he got it no issues at all. I was pretty surprised actually he got away with it but he did. So I really got the bundle although I did not need to, but no worries as I will just exchange Kameo for something else.

Basically it was all a huge matter of luck, as I have been checking that tracker every day since it was made, so it really was just almost all luck and nothing less.

I say just keep checking back at Circuit City. It seems the trend of all of the other places that have had them online are sell a few, make sure they have enough, and then they sell some more a few hours later. That is what the other people have been doing, so maybe they will as well.

Definitely Good Luck Though. (Y) I know you have been trying just as long as I have, so without a doubt good luck. :yes:

Nooooo! This makes for a good thread with random posts in it. :(

So post. The console has been released, so no need for a sticky on it. Every other thread in this forum is about the 360, since people can actually have things to say about it now that aren't rehashed blog posts. ;)

Hasn't been released everywhere yet mate.

No, but it's more released than the PS3 or Revolution is. Which means there's no reason to keep the sticky around for the parts of the world that don't have it yet, because the owners will post their own threads now, praising or asking for clarification on things, and the thread will lose its popularity.

I did not think this was a question worthy of a new thread, but I am curious does X Box Live carry over?

Meaning I still have X Box live activated for my older X Box, so when I get my 360 will it just carry over or do I have to pay all over again if I want the better plan?

TIA,

DL

Yes it carries over. Any Xbox Live subscription that you buy will work on both systems (and you can jump back and forth without doing anything special at all).

Nice. Glad to hear it. Thanks for the response.

How can i hook my 360 upto a dell monitor with DVI connection?

Do i need additional adaptors to whats supplied with the premium package?

You can buy a VGA cable to connect it to the Dell monitor. They're sold seperately from the system itself and support several resolution options. There is no DVI connection at this time. But if your PC is connected to the DVI port on the monitor, it's probably easier to have the 360 connected to VGA anyway (so you can switch without unplugging anything).
