I'd suggest that rather than junking it, sell it on ebay stating the problem and selling it as-is. You may be shocked to find that someone will still buy it for as much as $30 or more plus shipping. That will definitely get you a new game at least. Do an ebay search for "broken xbox" and...
Would you consider trading for an AIW 8500DV (and some $$), I believe that it's very similar to the 9000, and may in fact be slightly faster (ATI has a weird numbering process). If so, I may be interested. Jim
For what its worth, I purchased the NSP1's without auditioning for the same reason, since they've been phased out by JBL. I figured that if I wasn't happy with them, I would either return them or sell them on ebay, since they continue to be popular with many people. I bought them based on...
I had ants jus like yours and also didn't like to spray inside. Here's what worked for me: Don't just spray the foundation, all that does is force those ants inside to stay inside. Start with traps, trying a few different brands and types to see which the ants have the best reaction to...
Well Gary, I would ask how old you are? I can remember feeling like you do, but as I get older, years seem to go by much more quickly than they did when I was younger (and I'm "only" 33). I found this to be even more true after we had children. As a teenager, a year seemed like forever...
Does anybody here ever use games to demo your HT systems? Some of the newer games push my system almost as much as a reference quality DVD. Obviously the criteria would have to be the same: a truly outstanding presentation on all fronts: video, audio, and interest for the audience. I think...
Kevin, PS1 games are indeed playable on the PS2, you are probably best geting a PS2. I believe that in some cases load times are slightly faster and graphics are somewhat improved as well. If you do decide to get a PS1, you want to avoid the earlier models which had a real problem with...
How about taking the games off the TV? Sometimes I think that we are approaching a plateau in graphics, where within the next couple of generations, many genres of games will be near-photorealistic (racing games and some sports games are getting close already). I think at that point the...
I own a number of systems including the XBox and Dreamcast. My passion and eye for detail in the games makes the graphical difference between these two systems fairly obvious to me. However, most of my friends and my wife don't see a major difference in the graphics between the better DC games...
Had to resurrect this thread once again to say a little thanks.
Long time lurker here, I was inspired by this thread to seek out Rez on my Dreamcast. I am very glad that I did.
I've been playing for a couple of months now, and like many have said, I thought that I had pretty well mastered...
