I can understand not wanting to shell out the extra cash for the Fanatec when you already have a force feedback setup. A couple of my friends think I am a little crazy for doing it but I want to play Forza 3 with a really good wheel. I just hope it's worth it.

I have the Logitech G25/ Playseat Evolution combo for the PS3 and it's an awesome setup. I am pumped for the Fanatec wheel because of the belt driven force feedback. Plus it has rumble in the wheel and pedals (at an extra...

If you mean the Fanatec Porsche 911 S?
It is compatible with the 360, PS3 and PC.

I'm more of a Gears fan but that case is hot.

That's the exact feeling I got when I saw the trailer.
Doom with better graphics. I wish they would show actual gameplay so we could have a better understanding of what to expect.

You do realize that TRUE DD & DTS supports 5.1 too?
It's not a matter of numbers of speaker but the discrete sound running to those speakers that is the magic of TRUE sound.

Trust me if you had the receiver to support this sound you would not so easily dismiss it. It's a huge difference, and although my setup cost a small fortune, you don't have to spend a ton of money to purchase a decent set up that supports this sound.

I have seen receivers as recently ...

Fanboys in general are pathetic. All it takes is to p!ss off a couple with multiple accounts and they stick to you like ticks on a dear.

I know you are a PS3 fan but I just wanted to know what shooter you feel isn't generic. I didn't disagree or agree with you. I am just a huge shooter fan and I wonder what other shooter fans feel is generic vs innovative, compelling, original, enticing, etc and so on. Most shooters have meh stories. Then again that all comes down to individual o...

I think most shooters can be labeled generic depending on the person giving their opinion. I have played almost every shooter that has come out this generation. It's all basically the same. Get from one area to the next and kill all that get in your way. I thought KZ2 was fantastic but that's just my opinion.

So do me a favor and humor me. Name a couple of shooters this generation that "you" feel isn't generic and give a brief explanation as to why you feel that way.

To me the pros and cons don't add up at all when comparing BluRay to DD. BluRay is far superior to what DD offers now or will in the near future. Let's not forget that more people own hi def displays then have high bandwidth broadband.

My short list of pros and cons tell me BluRay is here to stay
BluRay
Pros:
Full 1080p visuals
True 7.1 DD and DTS audio
Hardware calibrations for audio and video
Physical media:
Options, features and adjust...

Quoted from the article:
"Gates said the 3-D chips in the Xbox would be three times faster than anything on the market and offer nearly unlimited graphical visuals. "We're approaching the level of detail seen in Toy Story 2," he said, referring to the computer-generated kids film from Disney/Pixar."

Get your story straigh...

"The type of chicks that would double up on a dude like me do." <- put it over the top for me.

Great way to end the day. LOL!

I shelled out nearly 1k (system, games, extra controller), camped out over night in 34% degree weathe, and still went to work that day. Man was that a miserable day of work but it was worth it once I got some rest then unboxed and fired up my shiny new black machine.

Sony will drop the price when they can and not when anyone else begs, pleads, demands or threatens them too. You are not part of the solution. You are part of the problem. So give it a rest and get over yourself alre...

I had the very same thing happen to me before with my old account which I since discontinued. It was like a moderator reset my account. I was banned to the open zone, lost half my 10 bubbles, contributor status to original number of 5 and approval status from 6 to 1.

I used no profanity and didn't recall breaking one rule. It was under a heated article where a lot of post were deleted but that was pure nonsense. I contacted the site 5 times regarding the banning and never receive...

Good point.
It is definitely better than we are going multiplatform to reach a wider range of players. That is it, end of story.

^^^ Yeah because we all know that no money was involved. /s

At least Ubisoft has the balls to come out and admit it was purely a business decision. Oh and it was a really big check! ;)

One word. Hits
Don't you remember MGS4 and how many (hundreds) articles surrounded it? This is just where the gaming media has gone this generation, in the craper. I don't see Splinter Cell Conviction getting "that" out of hand, at least I hope not, but as you can see it is already starting.

BTW I would hold off just a little bit on "it's not going to".
If this generation has taught us anything it is that almost nothing is safe. We have already wit...

Isn't subscribing to XBL pretty much the same thing as subscribing to a movie channel like HBO, Showtime, etc? So why are gold members being subjected to advertising (commercials) since they are paying a premium already?

Don't get me wrong. Advertising doesn't bother me at all. I jump on my 360 to game. I barely ever used NXE or surf for demo, movies, or any other content. I just feel you are shooting yourself in the foot with your analogy.

That's a sweet monitor. I never used a computer monitor for a gaming console before so I cant comment on it's performance but thanks for the link. I am in the process of putting together a racing c0ckpit (lol it wouldn't accept my message until I removed the o from c-ockpit) and I was thinking about going with a 3 panel 24" display. I am going to add that Asus to my short list of prospects.

As far as input lag (on a HDTV) it goes unseen until you have it side by side with an...

Don't get too caught up in ms response when picking out a display for gaming. Be more concerned with input lag. There are a few flat panels out there today that have a 4ms but have zero input lag vs displays that have 2ms response and considerable input lag.

What display are you using that gives you a 2ms?
Personally I would game on a plasma but I prefer the illumination and monitor type razor sharpness an LCD provide me. I will deal with a slower ms and even a little input...

I can picture hobos with signs on the side of the street that read "I will work for electricity"?

for preordering the game?

I'm on the fence about Madden this year. I picked up 09 and only ended up only playing 5 games (3 franchise and 2 online). The demo will either get me off the fence or keep me on the sideline.
