    Dolby Prologic 2 on the PS2!

    You can get PL2 sound from any stereo source. It's not the source that creates the PL2, it's the Dolby processor in the receiver that handles the stereo input. I have a Onkyo 797 and unless I input a Dolby Digital or DTS source, it decodes the stereo sound into PL2 automatically. Dolby...

    Metroid Prime ---------------------- NEW Firsthand Impressions From IGN!

    As for Nintendo leaking information... I haven't read any sales figures for their cube, but at my local best buy, the rack of cube games is 3 times smaller than the rack of xbox games. I wonder if Nintendos sales are slumping. Maybe their trying to generate some interest in their machine?

    XBox controller trouble

    I haven't had a problem in a week or so, but if it acts up again, I'll probably call them up. I agree that they are doing a great job supporting the console.

    XBox controller trouble

    I would probably let them know. I can just see them telling me that wear and tear or abuse isn't covered in the warantee. Being controllers for a toy that frequently get abused, I would understand that position if they took it. If I get a chance tonight I'll try to clean the contacts inside...

    Videogame VIOLENCE, Is There Too Much Violence in Games?

    Sick people are going to do sick things whether they are exposed to violence or not. I grew up watching the Terminator and Rambo and playing violent video games. I didn't turn into a criminal or drug addict. I don't want my personal freedoms to play whatever game or watch whatever movie I...

    I'm going to try to clean it first and then do the "Best Buy" exchange.

    XBox controller trouble

    I was wondering if anyone here has experience the same issues I've had. My left triggers on both my controllers are sticking sporadically. The physical button itself doesn't stick, but the sensor inside seems to be stuck. It is particularly annoying during SSX when the snowboarder grabs the...

    XBOX / Big Screen / HDTV / ....etc.etc.etc

    You need to disable 480P, 720P, and 1080i. The 43A10 is not an HDTV so it will only handle 480i. You will still get a better picture from component cables rather than svideo though.

    XBOX: Halo, how long is it?

    I've got a quick question for you Halo experts out there. I'm trying to play the game on Legendary level (pain in the a$$). I'm on the 3rd level and I just got beamed up to the ship where the aliens ambush me and the marines. Is it possible to actually survive that part? I think I screwed up...

    X-box questions before I buy today

    One way to tell if youre TV has 480P support is if it has Component Video or VGA inputs.

    Phantom Xbox Games?

    I read somewhere that GTA3 was cancelled for XBox. Maybe PlanetXbox.com or xboxweb.com... I can't remember right now.

    Doa3

    I have a blast playing DOA with someone else, but I don't enjoy it by myself.

    Does Component Cable For Xbox mean 480p?

    If your television does not have Component Video inputs, it is not capable of 480p.

    XBOX on a 4:3 HDTV?

    You get a choice between stretch and having black/gray bars on both sides on a 16x9 tv. On a 4x3 tv you have a choice between squeeze and black/gray bars on the top and bottom. [Edited last by Joe Murray on October 09, 2001 at 05:46 PM]
