wow. lol. I barely remember making this thread. No, I am NOT a basher. EA is a successful company and I congratulate them in that regard. It's just the interviews seemed kinda cheesy because of the shared nomenclature and mannerisms. It made me think of political talking points and various propoganda. I'm really just criticizng the uncoolness of it. I'd like to see less polished and scripted answers to gaming sites' interviews. But, I do see the importance of quality control in regards to public relations. However, I wish it were more principle-guided instead of semantically-guided.

I have had this idea for a while and I'm glad this post was created so I can mention my idea.

What if after every game you play, the system automatically gives everyone good feed back in the game you played.

Then if you find someone that is troubling you can go and leave negative feedback.

From how I see it, everyone you play with that doesn't act like a jerk, should automatically be preferred.

That way when you view your rep, it will show you the TRUE percentage of people that hate you. The current system doesn't work because people that ever give rep is for when they have problems with people, but 95% of the time people that enjoy playing with you don't give positive feedback. That's why I think as long as you didn't have any problems with the people you played with they should automatically get preferred.

Now THAT sounds like a good idea!!!

here's an idea on leaving bad rep. Require the negger to actually work. If yopu leave bad rep you ought to be required to jump thru some hoops and it should take about 3-5 mins of work. That way, people wont be so quick to leave it.

Does an HDMI connection improve graphics when compared to a Component connection?

Also, can you use any HDMI cable or do you have to buy one specifically for the 360?

i just watched a gamespot video where they were at EA studios. Every developer they interviewed had the same way of speaking. After a question was asked, they'd say, "So..." Theyd say 'so' and continue. For example, "So what weve done here is improve the a.i. etc." Weirdest thing I've ever seen. I guess EA tells them to say that for whatever reason.

you guys sure it isnt just a setting on my computer? i mean, what city is Gamespot's and YouTube's video feed coming from and what city is IGN (San Fran?) RottenTomatoes and Gamespy coming from? I just dont think YouTube would be as popular as it is if there was lots of waiting.

Are there mirror sites or whatever that is?

Wasnt sure where to post this...

Why is it at some websites I can click play on the virtual controls and boom! I get a video to play from beginning to end with no pauses? Then I go to another site and I buffering, 30 secs of video, buffering, 30 secs of video, buffering???

Gamespot is great and videos play right away but IGN totally sux. Not only do I get a ton of buffering but it plays ALL the videos listed! I cant just go and surf the web while all the buffering gets done. I come back and its buffering on a new video. I'd imagine even if I played the video all the way thru it'd have to re-buffer.

Is there a setting I can change?

Also, when I type in Gamespot's forums my on-screen text is slightly behind. So if I backspace I have to wait a second to make sure I don't backspace too far, etc.
