depends on who u are, and what u like. i like skateboarding, so i appreciate the realism of skate, and that's why i prefer it over tony hawk games atm. here's the deal:
from what i've seen of skate, it's realistic, and the animations are amazing,,,, especially with the sketchy landings off of rails (i love em so much). The whole 'security' thing makes it more appealing, and the fact that 12million point combos are non-existant is a major PRO. i'd rather see the smoothest kickflip off a 7set get 200 points than see a 50combo move get 50 times as many points. In skate... "lines" will actually be "lines" as opposed to "combos" if u get what i mean. Plus, skate is new, and for a first time game... it's looking awesome... a much anticipated change from the same old Tony Hawk series, which i've begun calling 'a button mashing game' ever since these 'flickit' controls were revealed.
how would one connect these two? via ethernet cable? and wha tif the 360 and the computer are plugged into the same router? would that work? i'd love to watch my home vids on the TV :D!
on the topic of USBs. in that case, does the 360 controller work with the PC? and can i bring USBs to the 360 and transfer files [like music] to my HDD? how about AVI home videos etc? does 360 play AVI files? and can i transfer files to and from the HDD to the USB port?
and i've been following the MK series since i was 2 yrs old! now i can't wait for next-gen MK! Ed Boon says he wants it to look like Gears of War... so u can imagine how good konquest is gonna be LOL!
can we charge our rechargeable battery packs using the PC's USB port and the playand charge kit? justwantedtoknowsoicouldkeepmy360offforaslongaspossible:D!
i think that this 'feature' will be more like streaming. basically, when u put the DVD in, there will be a 2 or 3 minute load time [slightly longer than average i mean]. This would be when the game is unpacking certain files onto ur HDD. Now, when u start playing, the game will load from the HDD as well as the DVD, so the games can be bigger, and the load times can be maintained / faster. Now, when u eject ur disk, all those unpacked files will delete themselves, and u won't lose any space, as such. this is MSs alternate to having all of us buy HDDVD drives... i think at least....
this is a wild guess based on my computer 'expertise' [sense the sarcasm]... but try a different plug. i'm guessing not enough power is reaching ur 360, so its restarting on its own. Used to happen to my PC back in india during power fluctuations (tilliboughtaUPS).
eitherget a step-down convertor, or buy a multi-voltage AC adapter, or a new AC adapter. I asked MS and they said that they sell AC Adapters seperately, so u might wanna go to some stores where u stay in europe and ask for AC adapters for the 360. Also, multivoltage ones are available... saw one in amazon recently...... don't have the link sorry :(.
sorry to hear the bad news, hope it's not as bad as it sounds! and this is why i like this big brick of an external adapter. at least u can change it! if it were internal, the only way u'd be able to work it in a country with different voltage [110V vs 220V] was either convertor, or voiding ur warranty.
