Anybody here still playing Stronghold or know anything about Stronghold 3? I hope they go back to their roots and improve on the original (Stronghold 2 Legends suck). Its one of the games I honestly dont know about then enjoyed it ever since the moment I "discovered" it from the shelves. Its not very deep yet not overly easy...:)

They should have bundled it with a 60Gb Xbox360...not with a lancer replica. Admit it or not, Gears 2 is a system seller..

Just got the tv tuner card today. Had it installed on my laptop and connected my xbox360. It did not dissapointed me, all of my xbox games played without lag.

Unfortunately, when I tried connecting my PS3, all I see is black screen. I dont know if the "Vista MCE Video Gaming Plug In" (built-in on the card) works only on the xbox360 but I really think there should be a way through this. Maybe some video playback tweaks on the PS3 control panel menu may fix this but I'll try again tomorrow.

Anyway, at least it worked on the xbox360. Generally, I'm satisfied with the product. :D

I have to admit, it is GOTY for me. I've played GTA4 but it didnt hooked me on it like MGS4 did...The enormous amount of content and production values blew me away. No wonder the developers took a while to finish it.

Hi. I'm thinking of using my laptop for my Xbox360/PS3, I know I need a TV tuner card to achieve it.

Found this card at Newegg, I think its new and so far have good reviews. They say that unlike other tv tuner cards that exhibit 2-3 sec lags. this one works almost perfectly.

Any inputs? Is this a good buy?

You should not see "technology" as what you see "up front"...For example, you see PS3's blu-ray as more advanced since it carries more capacity and thus more game content. However, you dont realize that there are geeks out there that are developing ways of programming and rendering graphics without using too much resources...The ways digital 1s and 0s are handled and controlled in a medium are the ones that will make a technology future-proof....
