Be sure to check out Ghost Recon and GR:IT and the upcoming Ghost Recon 2.

WHOA!!! Could've fooled me! Those screenies look great.:emoji_thumbsup: I wonder how good they'd look if everything was set up "right"?;) Enjoy!

Yeah that sounds like a decent PC. Even though I've NEVER heard of the brand. But if you HAVE to stick with BB, I guess you could do worse. As far as only being able to expand to 1 Gig of memory, 1 GB is good for most applications and users (but I don't know how much Paint Shop Pro 8 or Webeasy...

My advice: WAIT! You don't have any HD coming in and that 7-year old TV probably looks better than most HDTV's displaying SD. The DLP market is in a state of flux right now. It's a REAL transitional period. Samsung basically runs the DLP show, but LOT's of manufacturers are coming out with...

This was my main complaint with The Thing on Xbox. It's a really entertaining, innovative (trust/fear meters)game, but the controls, since they're not customizable, suck! Here's why: With some of the bigger, badder "things" later in the game, you can't just shoot 'em with a firearm. You have...

This is everything Gamespot's got on the game.

I use the Logitech Bluetooth KB/mouse combo on my HTPC. I really only play UT2K4 on it, but they work great! There is NO lag with either the mouse or KB. It's just like playing on my other (wired) PC. But, I have heard that some people have had problems with the non-Bluetooth Logitech MX duo...

Yo, yo! What's up Will. I can't speak for everyone, but I for one, got a little burnt out on XBL. Especially Rainbow Six 3. I played that game to death.:frowning: The only games I'll be playing on Xbox Live anytime soon are: Rallisport Challenge 2 (a great game) and Links. But right now I'm...

I was a beta tester and bought the retail this week. So far I'm having a blast (pun intended;)). I got characters on the Champion (Magic/Controller) and Pinnacle (Mutation/Tanker)servers, but I'd like to team up with you guys, so it looks like I'll have to make some new characters on Virtue...

Halo 2 (Xbox, duh...:)) City of Heroes (PC) Rallisport Challenge 2 (Xbox) Half-Life 2 (PC)

The one thing you don't say (and maybe the most important) is how far away from the TV will you be viewing? My girlfriend and I have a 32" JVC flat-screen CRT at the foot of the bed (like the Osbourne's, my girl says:)) and I think it's a good size. Not too big, not too small and this is from...

RB6 3 has a problem with "bullet detection", IMHO. I love the game, but it is frustrating unloading a clip into someone and nothing happening to them OR shooting someone who's leaning around a corner SQUARE IN THE FACE and nothing happening. In this game you'll do well to go SLOW and keep your...

I, personally, do NOT think heat is a factor AT ALL, in your case. FWIW, my HTPC (Biostar iDeq 200n w/AMD 2800+ and 2 HDD's) runs in the 40's normally and goes up to 55 under load. But it's rock-solid for hours running Prime 95. But since installing and playing BF: Vietnam, the game causes it...

How far away will the TV be from the viewer?

I must say I'm a little disappointed in this game so far.:frowning: The single player campaign is, IMHO, a chore. It's just boring. A main character (a Marshall named Dalton) that I don't care about, enemies with jerky movements and stupid AI and graphics that are OK, but nothing to get crazy...

One thing that hasn't been touched on, is the whole "DVI vs. component" thing. Component (interlaced OR progressive) is an analog signal. So your player takes the DVD (digital) converts it to analog, sends it out through the component cables to your TV's input (analog), then your DLP (or any...

Maybe you should try setting your DVD player to output in 480i and see how the SAMSUNG set's Faroudja chip does, compared to the DVDP. FWIW, I have a Sammy HLN-4365 and a HD-931 DVI DVD player. The way I see it, you just dropped about 3 G's on a TV. Why not spend another $~300 to get the best...

These are the EXACT stretch modes I'm talking about.

Alanna, I think it depends on the game and more importantly, IMHO, how the TV handles stretching. On my Samsung DLP,a 4:3 image is completely and EVENLY stretched to form a 16:9 image. To me, it looks good enough to do ALL my viewing (games & TV) this way. The only time I have bars on my TV is...

Ape Xtreme on the Xbox? When is this coming out? Is this a sequel to Ape Escape?

Yeah, which ever one looks better to you.

1) It depends... 2) Yes! 3) IMHO, no. 4) Project Gotham Racing 2 is a racing game most people love. The only sports title I have is "Links" and it's a great game. Good luck.:emoji_thumbsup:

First off, use the "search" function. Secondly, there are VERY similar threads HERE and HERE.

I see it this way: Let's say you just bought a "new" car. What you don't know is that it was driven for 1,000 miles but then the odometer was reset. The car looks great, runs great but it is NOT new. But you don't know that. Is that alright? For me, when I open up a NEW game, the last person to...

Quote: Call me a cad (whatever that is) then, cuz I would sell every cardboard box I own for $1200 Right on!

FWIW, I sit about 7.5-8' away from a 43" Samsung DLP. At first I thought it was WAY too big, but that was mostly 'cause I was used to a 32" 4:3 tube TV. Now I feel that the 43" is perfect from my viewing distance. I will say I'm glad I didn't go any bigger. You don't hear that too much around...

I have an Xbox hooked up to a 43" Samsung DLP and have NEVER noticed any "lag" problem.

If I'm not mistaken it stands for eXtended Bit Rate.

On other forums, this would probably denigrate into a flame war, hopefully we'll be a little more civilized here. Anyway, since I own both games, here goes... First off, CS and RB6 3 are two TOTALLY different games. I think the only reason people speak of 'em in the same breath is because...
