    Post-XMAS HD DVD Sales Surge: #8 ranked HD DVD surpasses #1 Blu-Ray in sales

    I think we need to take this information with a grain of salt, but I must say I'm surprised. I own a HD drive for my xbox 360, and I must say I love it. As a matter of fact I just picked up 3 HD DVD's bringing my total to ten. However, lately I feel like Blu-Ray has all the momentum. I believe I...

    Will missed target numbers shift any format suppoft from the studios?

    I agree, I don't think Microsoft cares who wins this war. I think the add on is an attempt to hurt sony. I mean really what is stopping Microsoft from coming out with a Blu-ray add on drive. I would buy one in a second, and actually it makes a lot of sense. Say they priced it at 299. You could...

    Will missed target numbers shift any format suppoft from the studios?

    I have a couple thoughts, that I wanted to post. My first thought is, is there any way to track actual software sales as opposed to player sales. I mean hardware sales don't seem to work that well when you factor in the PS3. Clearly, PS3 will give blu-ray much more hardware, but the problem is...

    I just picked up my first HD DVD

    I've been following this format war for a while. I really didn't think HD DVD had a chance. It seems everyone wants blue ray to win. Anways, I have an xbox 360 so I ordered the HD drive today, and it will be here next week. It is supposed to come with King Kong. Additionally, I picked up...

    Xbox 360 locking up

    Mine just starting locking up out of nowhere. I babied that unit so much. I had it 9 months, and had no problems prior to this. I didn't have the extended warranty, and microsoft told me it would be 129 bucks. I said ok, but man am I mad. Even after I get it fixed, I only get a 90 day warranty...

    *** Official BATMAN BEGINS Review Thread

    I saw this today, and I haven't loved a movie in a while. I liked sin city and Star Wars Rotc quite abit, but they were both just good in my opinion. I think I'm getting old or something. I even found Return of the King a little boring in spots. I was really starting to think I was becoming...

    NFL fan? Hope you enjoy Madden.

    I cant believe this. This is horrible. ESPN games were amazing for 20 bucks. That forced EA to reprice at 30 bucks. EA has no incentive to make any noticeable changes and I guarantee Madden will be 50 bucks for ever year from hear on out. I just can't believe this. 2005 ESPN football was...

    Sanyo HT30744, TX-P3071WH or Sony KV30HS420

    I'm looking at purchasing one of these sets in the next couple days. I have done so much research it is very sad. I was sure I was going to get the Sony because it was the best reviewed. Then I was sure I was going to get the Samsung because it has a built in tuner. I really want OTA HD because...

    Samsung TX-p3064W or Toshiba 30HF84 or Sony KV30HS420

    I am considering these three sets right now, and I'm wondering if anyone has any impressions of these sets. My parents have the Samsung, and I really like it. I am mainly looking for a widescreen set for movies and x-box games. I won't do HDTV right away, but it is something I would like for...

    How does ESPN2k5 compare to Madden 05

    I was just curious to get some opinions about this years version of these two games. I love them both. I have Madden 02 and 04, and I have NFL2k5 03 and 05 versions. I think this will be the year I have them both in the same season. There are certain things that each game does so well. I used to...

    NCAA Football 2005!

    I recently purchased this game. I had the 2003 version which I though was the greatest game ever. I think the running is improved in this one. I really have to bust my butt to get yards. I'm averaging 5.2 yards per carry, which is very realistic. However, the passing is terrible. I played the 03...

    smallville 2/4/04

    Did this episode remind anyone of the X-files episode where the dad from everybody loves raymond can tell you how your going to die? Scully asks him how she's gonna die, and he replys "you dont". That is one of my favorite eps of that series, and I loved this ep of smallville.

    World Poker Tour: Hollywood Home Game

    I watched it, and loved it. I agree Fred Savage is the luckiest SOB on the face of the earth. It was awesome. Aisha was so dumbfounded at the end with Savage getting so lucky. It was good stuff.

    favorite Friends memories

    My favorite episode is the Thanksgiving episode, where they play the game of football for the Gellar cup. The Gellar cup is one of those stupid trolls nailed to a piece of wood. I live for that episode.

    Films that made you cry...

    I didn't see anyone mention this one, but I may have missed it. The film My Girl with the Culkin kid just killed me the first time I saw it. Maybe because I wasn't expecting it. When there at the funeral and the girl is screaming he needs his glasses, he needs his glasses as he lays in the...

    Most memorable experience in a movie theater

    I'll chime in on this one. When I was 14, and Terminator 2 came out. I've never left a theater with such a jaw dropped expression in my life. To this day, this the greatest theater experience. Everyone, in the theater was silent, and hypnotized by the movie. To this day, I compare all other...

    Who is picking up Rainbow Six 3?

    I'm definitely getting it. I didnt think Id like Ghost Recon. I picked it up on a whim, and I played it more than any of my other Xbox games by far. I love 1 shot 1 kill. I have Medal of Honor, and i can't stand it because I have to shoot guys what seems like 20 times. I would have never have...

    Thanks Daniel, I can safely say I would have never figured that out. I would have just kept trying to fight them, and ultimately I would have quit playing the game. Thanks alot.

    Square is developing for Nintendo Again!

    Wow, I just saw this report over at gaming-age. Did this come out of nowhere or what. I love my X-box with Halo, JSRF, Rallisport, but this is a serious blow. In my opinion Microsoft has almost done everything right so far in launching the Xbox. I thought it would be tough for them to...

    NFL 2k2 Xbox

    Sorry guys, but I got to chime in on this one. I have both games, and both have their charm. I don't play franchise mode so I won't really comment on that. Bergan is right about the players diving unrealistically far. Sega intentionally did it to give the game a little arcade flavor. I've...

    How does NFL Fever compare to NFL2k2

    I'm torn between these two titles on X-box. I understand that 2k2 doesn't come out till january, but I'm sure it will play the same as it played on dreamcast and ps2. I've heard a real mix of reviews about NFL fever. Some love it and some hate it. Let me say this, I like madden, but I...
