Ok, I just had a quick question about the Xbox 360 elite. With the new HDMI cable does that make it a better quality on your TV?Xbox 360 elite question ?
If you have an HDTV then yes, if not, it won't matter because you won't be able to use the HDMI cable. Xbox 360 elite question ?
No it does not, I have found that in my time of gaming HDMI cables all work the same. I believe the only way of getting a better picture is a better Tv, Hope this helps.
Oh I thought he was asking if HDMI was better than composite or component
Yes and better sound too
As far as I know, all Xbox 360 games are displayed in 720p. Therefore there really shouldn't be significant differences between HDMI and Component in terms of visual quality. As for audio, I'm no pro, but I think that HDMI transmits digital audio signals to your TV. However, you could get the same result while using the Component cables if you were to hook up your sound system via optical audio/toslink. Keep in mind that chances are, your standard TV speakers won't do justice to digital audio, so if you wanted to get high quality audio and video out of HDMI, you'd need to run it through a receiver, then to your respective HDTV and surround sound setup. Hope this helped.

have you ever beaten a game without earn ...
it almost happened to me. I beat Halo 3 on easy and only got 10G lmao. what about you guys?have you ever beaten a game without earn ...
It's virtually impossible because you get an achievement from completing the game no matter what difficulty it's on lol...but i'd say Oblivion, i played that game for 14 hours without getting an achievement the game got boring and i gave up for good lol.:Phave you ever beaten a game without earn ...
I almost always end up with a minimum ofsomething like 200-300 points and I dont ever go for acheivements. I also refuse to play a game on 'easy', though. No offense meant by that, I, personally,just dont enjoy a game as much if its too easy.
yeah i beat marvel ultimate alliance 2 on casual and on casual all achievments are disabled it was wierd not getting any
TMNT the Movie :P
No, I can't even think of many times where it is possible.
I cant even think of a game where that is possible.

I was gonna say there is an arrow that points you out.
Nope :P I've run through Call of Duty 3 and WaW, and also I ran through Splinter Cell, but I ended up earning like 200 points on each, just for going through the campaign.
The only time that's possible is playing on Easy. In a lot of games.. Achievements are disabled if you play on Easy.
I always play on Normal or Hard, so i've never come across that. But I know friends that have.

Sounds like you completely ignored the guilds, the combat arena, and even the main quest. ALL of the game's achievements are tied to completing tasks for each of those.
Seeing there is so many games with Story achievements it never happened to me so far.

Does anyone have Recon yet?
I know the game JUST came out today, but does anyone have it yet? or is there anyone who has attempted it yet? those vidmasters are brutal... so who has attempted?Does anyone have Recon yet?
I don't see the point anymore because everyone is going to have recon just like the katana, but i might try if i get really bored.Does anyone have Recon yet?
A lot of people already have it. On eperson on my FL got it this morning and another about an hour ago.What people will do for an armour perm I will never understand.Good luck to those who chase it. I hear that the endure and deja vu achievements are taxing.
Vash has had Recon for over a month now.

Falcon isn't great, but it isn't as bad as the launch systems. I don't know man, truth be told I just bought a new Xbox 360 (the Arcade is only like $180) last time mine broke because I couldn't be bothered to send it in, wait a month, and get back a refurb that would probably just break again in 6 months. So far, that system has been doing great for a year, so I'm glad I coughed up the dough for it. Plus, what the hell am I going to do for a month without Xbox??? :)
u can put one but i aint think that much necessay

EA sports seem to never get it right
EA sports seems to enjoy letting the gameplay to their boxing, football, and basketball. With their boxing game Fight Night Round 4I felt they desrespected the sweet science with their lack luster gameplay, and terrible system of stamina. They hyped it up to be a sim of sims in the boxing world, most people who played round 3 felt it was good but had it share of problems. When round Round4 came it was nothing but spaming punches and represented the sport unrealisticly, it was terrible no movement among the boxers to dance, the stamina bar had lil to no effect on boxers, and to make matters worse it rewarded unskilled players who know nothing about the sports it was technically rock'em sock'em fighting.Madden is the only football game in town and what is sad is that it pervious gen counter part is still more valid in realism then it is now. The running back is the key to anyone being successful. 80% of players will either throw it to the flats to their back, screen pass, or use the spot route to their back 9 times out of 10. What is worse is that their seems to be no defense to stop it successfully the defenses particularly the linebackers are terribly slower then backs making it difficult to play defense even when u take a right angle, and the adjustments are laborious and hard to accomplish before the snap. Coverages in the game that are called in real situation seems to be invalid (one example is Cover 4 suppose to stop deep routes) doesn't really happen in here. Another is the power grid of teams. It seems impossible for teams that had losing records to fight over powered teams like pats, and steelers, in the 2k series even in their basketball game there is some chance to fight those over powered teams with a team that has a losing record.Live EAs basketball game...well they should keep trying live's shinning moment was when they introuduce the total control dribbling and the animations were cleaned up to boot. since then it has digressed and digressed into what it is now...EA sports seem to never get it right
I agree...you can say the same thing about NBA Live and Madden as well, they add ''new innovative'' features on a half-a$$ed game, that's like putting sprinkles on expired yogurt...THE OVERALL PRODUCT STILL SUCKS !EA sports seem to never get it right

I don't like sports games in general. They are never deep enough to simulate the actual sport. Half of the time you feel like doing a movement that's not in the game but crucial to the sport. I think UFC 2009 Undisputed came close to being the first sports game that nailed it. It mostly works, but the animations suck. I don't want my guy to start hugging the other, I want him to grapple. There is a difference.

Principles are what I am looking for, UFC is good but its way to grown oriented. In most UFC bouts its mostly striking and in the later rounds take downs are obtained not given like it is in the game in the higher levels its very hard to stirke because of the counters and infamous throws that put someone in a bad position from the gates.
I disagree. From the games I've played, Fight Night Round 4 is stunning and FIFA 09 is the best football(soccer for youyanks)game of all time. I hear Madden is the best American Football game ever but since I'm not interested in the sport, I've never played the game.

FIFA is great. FNR4 is good. Madden 10 is good. NBA live is decent, almost bad. MVP baseball was good.

But the wholes in the gameplay of the EA's boxing, football, and basketball is overwhelming. What kills most players is online, there is cheesing and every game but the wholes of EA's games make it nearly impossible to overcome. Unfortunately skilled players seem like they have to cheese to combat it. Its this aspect of EA i don't appreciate, every game has cheese but if its insurmounatble to stop, its a big turn off. Fight night round 4 is incredible against the comp. Most players who agree to EA's game often fit the cheeser mode that most players complain about (hope not to offend anyone). With madden i feel like there is no chess match aspect to it, its an arcade sim to give it a fitting approach.
I thought this years madden was the best ive ever seen with the additions of gang tackling and fighting for fumbles i dont see what else would make it any better. If people are complaining about how the running game or the passing game sucks it obviously YOU and not the game because i have no problem doing either on All-madden or even against other players online. As far as NBA Live goes that game is a waste of 60 bucks every year its like they have never picked up a NBA 2K game before they should know what they have to do to compete but they just remain making sloppy basketball games.

That is true. I have to add though that some wrestlers in the UFC get takedowns pretty much instantly (in real life). But you are basically right, I found it easy to do takedowns with almost anyone.
i think EA dont have gamers making the games only programmers , i hope nothing from they titles , if you wanna buy an EA game watch like 74 videos before getting it
Theyre just all about the money game is second.
FNR4 looked worse than FNR3. I thought it was cartoony and not realistic at all. EA better get there act together!

I tried everything Cover 2 stops the back but the recievers are open, Cover 3, man and etc. The back in the terms of the pass play is ur last option you should go to, in real games the running back is usually covered and covered well by jus one linebacker, every sledom time u see a running back take it to the house like a reciever. With EA it is almost like every back can do it like they are Marshall Faulk, what made me go insane one time is Michael Tuner who drops alot of passes as a back had 11 receptions in a game and he should have only gained 2 yards on those attempts but his redicules tackle breaks made him technically drop everyone. I'm jus tried of unrealistic game play EA personifies the notion of glitch and holes for online gaming.
I agree...you can say the same thing about NBA Live and Madden as well, they add ''new innovative'' features on a half-a$$ed game, that's like putting sprinkles on expired yogurt...THE OVERALL PRODUCT STILL SUCKS !EA sports seem to never get it right
[QUOTE=''InFamous_BC'']EA sports seems to enjoy letting the gameplay to their boxing, football, and basketball. With their boxing game Fight Night Round 4I felt they desrespected the sweet science with their lack luster gameplay, and terrible system of stamina. They hyped it up to be a sim of sims in the boxing world, most people who played round 3 felt it was good but had it share of problems. When round Round4 came it was nothing but spaming punches and represented the sport unrealisticly, it was terrible no movement among the boxers to dance, the stamina bar had lil to no effect on boxers, and to make matters worse it rewarded unskilled players who know nothing about the sports it was technically rock'em sock'em fighting.Madden is the only football game in town and what is sad is that it pervious gen counter part is still more valid in realism then it is now. The running back is the key to anyone being successful. 80% of players will either throw it to the flats to their back, screen pass, or use the spot route to their back 9 times out of 10. What is worse is that their seems to be no defense to stop it successfully the defenses particularly the linebackers are terribly slower then backs making it difficult to play defense even when u take a right angle, and the adjustments are laborious and hard to accomplish before the snap. Coverages in the game that are called in real situation seems to be invalid (one example is Cover 4 suppose to stop deep routes) doesn't really happen in here. Another is the power grid of teams. It seems impossible for teams that had losing records to fight over powered teams like pats, and steelers, in the 2k series even in their basketball game there is some chance to fight those over powered teams with a team that has a losing record.Live EAs basketball game...well they should keep trying live's shinning moment was when they introuduce the total control dribbling and the animations were cleaned up to boot. since then it has digressed and digressed into what it is now...[/QUOTE]o god. i personally wouldn't have made this topic.there's going to be a lot of hating coming from this.I loved madden 10 was the best football made so far.
