I bought the game today, played single player a bit, its good but nowhere near Modern Warfare. Anyways I switched to multiplayer and I really enjoyed it, the maps are really good. Too much camping though ^^

IIts good and all but have a problem, I tend to get very short momentary freezes during the game. Its like a 1 sec loading lag. My fps is good though, around 80 - 90 and I am running the game on Vista 64. I am also playing COD modern warfare, but I haven't encountered such thing.

What might be causing this problem ? I'll appreciate if anyone can help.

Just one question. Are you using a wireless connection?

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem.

I have installed the new dashboard hoping that i would be able to run my monitor at its native res (1680x1050), using it to its full potential. My  monitor is a 22" Samsung Syncmaster 226BW, hooked up to my 360 using the official Xbox vga cable.

THough to my suprise once i chose the new resolution, it doesent utilize they full screen of the monitor. There are black gaps at the top and bottom of the display ( about and inch) as if i was watching a movie on a tv. The onscereen display seeems to be more 16:9 since hight is taken away from teh image.

It seems that the xbox360 doesnt support 16:10 aspect ratios at all, just a quick fix for monitor users.

Cheers if anyone else has this experienced this porblem.

I bought the same AX360's and am loving them! They are $110 on newegg.com by the way.

Using them I can hear very clearly which direction someone is coming from in Call Of Duty 4 ( Very useful for search and destroy).

You dont have to put the optical directly into the PS3 if your TV has an optical out port. I have the headphones running to the converter box, which goes to my TV's optical port, which goes to my PS3's HDMI. That way I can turn down the TV volume, turn on the headphones, an immediately start gaming without having to reset my audio configuration.

I admit they are indeed noise cancelling. My dad had to yell at me a few times for swearing loudly late at night ( I can't hear my own voice with them on).

Yes you can use the mic with the PS3, but you need 2 or 3 adaptors to get it running ( I spent around $30-$40 on them) I should be getting the final adaptor by this weekend so I'll try and let you know how it works. I've just been clipping my bluetooth mic around the collar of my shirt while i play (and setting sound input to "default device") so I can hear my friends and they can hear me.

It comes with an impressive 12 foot cord so I never have to worry about sitting too far from my tv. My only issue I had with them is that they are reasonably expensive, yet they don't come with some sort of stand, luckily, being an artist, I was able to sculpt my own abstract headphone stand to match the sleek black curves of the PS3. I could post a pic of it if your'e interested.

Ok i'm done ranting on about them. I highly suggest them in every way. *edited for grammar and your eyes' sake

Ok, so i know the mic of the headset only workson the Xbox 360 and the Pc, but not the PS3. So u need adaptors for it. What adaptors would i need?
