    Chloe is mysteriously missing from that list! :frowning: I like Chloe best. Hopefully, it'll be Jonathon.

    House, M.D. season 2 ongoing thread

    I think she was serious until she realized that the competition between him and House caused them both to almost completely miss the diagnosis and potentially kill the patient!

    XBOX 360 Live

    No, I haven't purchased any points yet. I've downloaded plenty of trailers and game demos (the X3 trailer is pretty sweet in 720p! :D ), but have not purchased anything. I plan to buy some of the arcade games eventually, but have to wait till after Christmas to have some extra money. The one...

    XBOX 360 Live

    You can start with a disk in the system, if you want... you would just press you XBox Guide button (Big silver one.. I think they call it the Guide button). Anyways, that pops up your personal blade over top of the game you are playing. Press "Y" to go the XBox Dashboard. Alternatively...

    Cool. I'll have to try that... I've always been nervous about accessing the service menu, so never bothered to fool with it. I do have an extended warranty from Best Buy ... maybe I can get them to come fix it. Thanks for the tip :)

    I have an interesting problem, and maybe ya'll can shed some light on it . I have my display set to 1080i on a Toshiba 50H81 and it is cutting off the sides of the picture. Like when playing PDZ, I can barely see my ammo status and in the garage on PGR3, it is cutting off the names of my cars...

    *** Official *** XBox 360 Hardware DISCUSSION Thread

    I went around 12:30 to my local Sams and there was probably 30 cars in the lot ... I know they are getting 20 systems, so I panic a bit. On closer inspecition, however, there is no one in any of the cars and no one waiting by the door... it's just the employees cars! They open to business...

    And it's like he said at the end of the episode... (however he said it)... he was being stupid and naive and should have been more careful. But the threat of Jor-El killing someone he loves obviously is weighing heavily on him at this point. It's still there, but I think he realized he can't be...

    And how about the preview for next week! Man, that looks like it'll be a great episode!! I'd be totally confused by all the crazy things in the preview if the stinking Brainiac thing hadn't been spoiled already. I didn't even know who Brainiac was until it was discussed here and I went and...

    Oh man, the toothbrush trick Dan pulled was just flat out mean, but how creative!? I was laughing and disgusted all at the same time... ROFL!

    Smallville Season 5 thread

    Yeah, the Lex/Brainiac stuff was definitely the redeeming part of this episode. I'm still not convinced that Fine is not out to help Clark... I mean, sure he offed Lex's goon but it could easily be argued that the goon was an "evil" cohort or what not... and it's just a difference in sytle on...

    Smallville Season 5 thread

    Actually, they showed him materialize out of the space ship a few episodes back. (don't remember if it was the first or second ep.) I didn't put 2 and 2 together until it was mentioned here, but they did show it on the show... you'd just have to have a good memory to remember where you'd seen...

    Smallville Season 5 thread

    I never even considered that he flew... looked like a leap to me. Besides, if he was flying.. why did he feel the need to clamp on to the missile and climb his way up it? And how about his return to earth? Not very graceful for someone who was flying. I could buy the "he "flew" up there...

    New Game Boxes with Stickers

    This is exactly why I never buy used games.. the 2 or 3 dollars I can save by buying used doesn't justify the screwed up box and possible scratched game disk. i like my things new and shiny and intend to take good care of them when I get them home. i hate stickers on my game cases.

    Smallville Season 5 thread

    Given the parallels to the movie, such as (in a round about way) Clark losing his powers b/c of his love for his friends ... I'm guessing Clark will have to return to the fortress of solitude somehow and convince Jor-El to give him his powers back. Of course i could be completely wrong...

    Bones ongoing thread

    See, I disagree... I thought this episode was pretty bad. Maybe it's because I didn't stick with it.. watched about the first 15 minutes and realized how forcefully they were tryign to create some sort of chemistry between the 2 lead characters... and it came across that way. That and they keep...

    As I recall, Abby getting shot at is what snapped Gibbs out of his nice-phase... he didn't just all of a sudden get better. The visions each person had of Kate were done well... and show you they are still thinking about her, but it is their memories of here that are encouraging them not to...

    Yeah, I too was disappointed that they didn't at least come back the next day or something to get in a good launch and see what that things was really capable of. That's definitely the first episode I've seen where they took up the whole show with 1 myth... and I didn't care for it. The huge...

    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

    IMHO, the game should be AO .. if that means retailers won't sell it, then we obviously need a better system in place for buying video games. The problem is not that the rating has suddenly been changed to AO, but that it was ever only MA in the first place. The ESRB has a long way to go if...

    Monk Season 4 thread

    I'm still waiting for them to explore Trudy's death a bit more. I mean, we got the whole "man with six fingers on one hand" clue forever ago and it hasn't even been mentioned since. Just seems to not jive, to me. Wouldn't you think Monk would be kinda running with something like that? I mean...

    In lieu of painting, are you allowed to perhaps hang black fabric on the walls? Or staple up some black wrapping paper or something, for that matter. I mean, you can't paint, but obviously you can hang pictures and such... or you could cover some foamboard in black fabric and hang several large...

    I dunno, I would say the question on swingin over the swingset is exactly that.. is it possible to swing so hard that you actually do a loop as opposed to getting straight up and falling down.

    Halo2 Expansion Maps, anyone getting them?

    I'll be picking them up as soon as I find a store that has them... didn't want to spend 12 bucks to DL, just to turn around and spend 20 more on the disk. Nice thing about the disk will be I can take it with me and load the maps on friends XBoxes when we have XBox nights (i'm the only one of...

    So who's NOT ready for the next hardware generation?

    I don't see why I'd want to use my XBox controller on my 360.. the button layout on the new controllers is gonna rock with the "bumper" buttons or whatever they are calling them instead of black and white (Which are too hard to reach on Duke and S)

    American Idol - Season 3

    Yeah, I guess he did have a good voice in his limited (VERY LIMITED) genre. I'll admit that. He just always annoyed the crap out of me, and I couldn't believe he stayed in as long as he did. Guess it's just not my style. :) Oh well, props to him.
