Here is Gears on my 60" Sony SXRD...
I've been meaning to ask you something.
I see you have ur 360 hooked-up to the HD connection, right? So my question is how do you hookup the 360 when my cable box is already using the HD connections on my TV?
PLEASE HELP
Thanks
My TV has has 4 HD inputs, 2 HDMI and 2 Component HD inputs. My Satellite is attached to the HDMI and the Xbox is attached to one of the component inputs.

X BOX 360 is better. Only reason to get a PS3 is for the blu ray. But when Gran Turismo comes out who knows but I heard FORZA Motorsports is better.

Very Cool Tv
I have a sony 61" XBR but it doesn't look nearly as good as your does. Is yours a rear projection or flat panel?

I played all the games, Gears of War, Fight Night, NHL 2007, a ton more games. I was not impressed at all, people have been talking about it like it is the holy grail of consoles. Only thing left to do is to play PS3 and see which is better for myself.

Good point TrueBlue!
5.0Caliber... IMO, if you are basing what console you are gonna buy/support only on graphics... you will wind up bored as hell. A game could have the best damned graphics ever... but play like crap.
Look at most of the PS3 launch games!!! Several looked great, but reviewers and hands on play will tell you they were lacking in the -gameplay- department! It's like having a supermodel come over to spend the night, and then only to find out she's broken down there... LET DOWN!
Dont get me wrong.. I'll get a PS3... when the games are there in terms of graphics and gameplay!
Each console will have its ups and downs, true... but in the end, you are playing the GAMES (regardless of how they look) not the console's ability to render graphics.
Have you even played a Wii? Zelda is a effing blast! Excite truck is so damned fun! Sure, the graphics wont make you crap yourself on your 2 million inch HDTV, but the playability of the games are the entire point of the console!

Ok, I broke down and purchased the PS3. The good and the bad.
Good: The online play has been great. Not only can you play online with a lot of people, but there has been little to no lag such as my pc with about 40 people online (Resistanc:Fall of Man). Fight Night 3 is very nice online as well. You can fight other people and chat with them using any Blue Tooth capable ear piece (you don't have to buy some earpiece that is required like some consoles). I also downloaded a ton of things from their online store, including demos, mini games, Blue Ray Trailers etc. and it was all free. I also went online with their browser and added a few sites on my favorites, such as CAFORDS. The controller is neat too. I got the PS3 about four days ago and I have been playing it nonstop and I only had to charge once. The cool thing about that is you can play while it is charging.
The BAD: Not enough games out yet. I have two pretty good games, Fight Night Round 3 and Resisstance: Fall of Man. I might get a basketball game, but those seem to be all the same. Not much else out yet and a lot of releases keep getting pushed out. I can't wait for KILLZONE. I also tried to get another controller, but every where I go seems to be sold out.
Other than that, a pretty good console. If I had a blue tooth keyboard and mouse, I wouldn't really need the pc much. You can surf the internet just fine, and it looks good on my Sony 46" LCD. By the way, Best Buy in Roseville by the Galleria Mall has plenty in stock. The guys said he just received about 125 out of the blue. My advice if you are thinking about getting the PS3 is to get it.

Do you have an Xbox360 also? [ January 23, 2007, 07:24 PM: Message edited by: TrueBlue ]
