I'm starting to like the BR a lot. However I'd have to say that my favorite weapon is... I'm not sure what it is because they're all so good for certain situations (well most of them anyways).
Seriously do you people work for M$ and have super consoles that never go out? I'm now officially going to be on my 4th 360.
Before I ever got a 360 I had a PS2 and I had 2 of them in 6 years....I got my first 360 on Christmas in 2006 and it's now October 2007 and I have gone through 3 of them; and the funny thing is I hardly ever play my 360 (my gamerscore is high just because I like to play a wide variety).
Is this a sign telling me to go to the dark side o_0 *cough PS3 cough*

I've had my 360 just as long as you have and so far I've had 1 RRoD, 1 disc read error, a couple of weird things where the display got messed up and the occasional crash here and there. I'm bit nervous that my 360 will suddenly just die one day since it seems to be tempting fate.
Like the aboe user said, MS can't use the HD/DVD for games because it would force anyone who didn't buy the new system to upgrade, and the would be bad for them(MS). That's why I don't reallly care what they come out with, I got my 360 to play games and the premium suits me just fine.
well the other thing I noticed is that the right stick can be pulled out a bit past the "neutral" position and this isn't the case with any of the control sticks on my other controller. The thing is I didn't do anything to the controller that would damage it like that so I don't understand why it doesn't work.
So I was just playing Halo 3 when I noticed that I wasn't always going into zoom when I clicked my right stick, it was kinda annoying but I thought it was just the way the controller was. It would usually work on the second click anyways so it wasn't a big deal to click it twice. However now it's stopped working entirely and I'm kinda p***** off. Has anyone else had this problem, is there any way I can remedy the situation without buying a new controller for $50. I have another one that I could use but that still leaves me with only one fully functioning controller when friends or other people play my 360 with me.
OK... in HD there are 720 or 1080 lines of resolution in the pic. The Hz rating is how many times per second the television refreshes those lines. So on a standard HD, it will refresh ur pic 60 times per sec. 120Hz will give you smoother motion, but the 360 doesn't support 120Hz. The only way to do 120Hz is with a blu-ray that supports 24p = 24 fps. for good response time look at the sharp lcd's (4ms response) and the sony xbr's (4-5ms response, also the BEST lcd u can get at a resonable price.)incubusoccer
Yeah I was also gonna point that out. The 360 can only render a maximum of 60 frames per second. The only time when refresh rate could be an issue is if you have a refresh rate that's lower than the framerate of the game, in which case you would get screen tearing. So while having a high (60+) refresh rate on the tv does make it faster, it won't affect the appearence of games because the 360 is locked at a maximum framrate.
Oh and Hertz and refresh rate are the same thing, hertz means cycles and in the casee of a display each cycle is one refresh of the screen so that it can display another image. Response time is the time it takes for the display the image it gets from the source. I'm just pointing this out because there seems to be some confusion here.
