Customer Review: Great alternative to the hdmi slot/cable
Last Year I bought an LCD TV/Monitor to replace the old small Standard TV in my bedroom.

The main thing I use the screen in my room for is playing my Xbox 360 which is capable of outputting HD graphics. But before I got my new TV I was only playing standard definition graphics through a standard component cables anyway.

Unfortunately , my new LCD Widescreen TV/moniter didn’t display the 360s graphics as sharply as my old standard definition TV. The image seemed a lot more blurry than my old TV.

Luckily on the same day I decided to buy the official Microsoft HD VGA cable for 360, and it fixed this problem and now all my games are displayed in gorgeous HD and running at 720i/p. The image is alot sharper than through my old standard component cables.

This cable is also great alternative if you don’t have the HDMI slot ( alot of the older 360 batch models including the most of the ” Core ” packages , will not have a HDMI slot. ) on your 360 or your TV/moniter.

Luckily my new TV/monitor had the VGA input/output socket just like all other PC monitors , so I was able to restore picture sharpness even though both my console and Screen have no support for HDMI.

So basically what I’m trying to say , this is the choice for you , if your Display unit or 360 doesn’t have the HDMI slot.

Buying this cable have been one of my best spending decisions for my 360 gaming ! You can still enjoy sharp graphics on a widescreen LCD/plasma even without HDMI !

Customer Review: The Cable to own if you want HD gaming
I just recently bought a 32″ HD tv and was unsure to go with this cable or the VGA one. After reading many reviews I opted for the component cable and it works perfectly. The HD quality of the 360 games is amazing. I have also heard that the other third party cables dont have the proper protection so it is most likely best to go with this official microsoft one. If you are after a cable to make the transition to HD gaming this is the one to get. Gears of War and Fight night look like stunning. Cant wait for Mass Effect and Halo 3.

If you use Xbox to communicate this little gadget makes it a whole load easier to send messenges. Very simple to connect and use.
Customer Review: Brilliant Idea but very confusing
I bought one of these keypads from Comet, now I think it’s a bloody brilliant idea but there’s a slight issue with it… It’s very confusing to use. Even after three months of using it I still find it irritating sometimes. Example: I turn on CapsLock to type in bold, I turn off Capslock and carry on Typing just to find that after the first letter came out in normal text but the rest was all in Caps. An Example of this: ”HELLO FRANKY! hOW ARE YOU?” Closely followed by me swearing at it and having to redo the sentence. With a little bit of practice this device would be a gamer’s dream but like others have said… just buy a Keyboard and sit it next to you so you can type ingame.

Customer Review: Tell me about XNA not Agile Project Management Methods
Pointless book where the author has used it as a soapbox to promote completely unrelated subjects like Agile project management. The text is error prone and hard to follow. Wait for a better book.
Customer Review: Hard to read - keep Google and Wikipedia handy
It’s obvious that the author knows what he’s doing. The games that he’s produced and are described in this book are amazing. There was a real buzz around XNA Racer on the community forums at the start of the year. However, I buy a book to read offline with occasional keyboard time and as such, I find this book difficult to recommend. There is too little exposition around the key concepts and the book lurches from over-explaining the basics to assuming black belt matrix algebra knowledge. A few examples: * This book is about 3D games programming but has way too few explanatory diagrams. * The author mentions point sprites as an alternative to billboards. OK, so what’s a point sprite? What are the pros and cons of point sprites vs billboards? This is a minor example but a good editor would surely have demanded an explanatory paragraph or two. * Did the author think the book would be published in colour? The text often refers to coloured elements in black and white diagrams. * The sample code contains too much of the author’s own engine library code, making it difficult to incorporate into your own efforts. * If it’s a bad idea (and it is) to use foreach in game loops, NEVER use foreach in code samples. Probably the most frustrating thing about the book is the prose style that is at times unreadable and occasionally nonsensical. The book also has an extraordinarily high number of mistakes in the text - I’m guessing this was rushed to market to beat the inevitable XNA book rush. A very talented developer let down by his publisher (and apparent lack of proofreading effort). When does Petzold’s XNA book come out?!

Customer Review: Good for kids…
First of all Microsoft have only released 2 games consoles the Xbox 360 being their second. Secondly there are only 3 versions of the Xbox 360 on the market: Xbox 360 Arcade (formerly known as the CORE pack) Xbox 360 Premium Xbox 360 Elite The old CORE had a WIRED controller NO memory card and NO arcade games this one comes with the WIRELESS CONTROLLER, 256mb memory card and arcade games. ALL Xbox 360’s now have a HDMI output including this model however does NOT come with HDMI cables or component cables. The reason for the 3 rating is that well its a CORE, its has no hard drive meaning if you want to go online you will need a hard drive in order to download the vast amount of content available. Some games also need a hard drive but from what I know that includes maybe 5 games at max but the hard drive helps with caching so it allows the games load a bit quicker. The Core also has no chrome tray, now if you are not bothered then fine. If you can stretch to the PREMIUM model I would say go for that, but if you are not planning on going online (which means you will miss out on game updates as well also maybe content for your games and console updates) then stick with the CORE - you can still go online with it with the memory card so you can grab your console and game updates and play with people online but the hard drive is a must as you will be missing out on the full capabilities of the Xbox 360. I own an Xbox 360 Elite and for the ?299.99 basically a ?100 more you get a whoppping 120gb hard drive, all the cables you need for HD gaming and a black headset.
Customer Review: Pretty impressive
I’m not a massive gamer, having only briefly owned a PS2 and a Gamecube but I ordered this machine to give me something else to do other than watching television each evening. First Impression Within 10 minutes of opening the packaging it was set up and ready to play, Microsoft seem to be marketing this as “everything you need to start gaming” and that’s a pretty good description. Of course, you know when you buy this that you are going to need some games as well. The Machine and Controller The box itself looks very well made, sturdy and nicely designed. You can have it horizontal or vertical and it fits in nicely with my CD player, DVD player and PVR in my TV stand. The power cable and box are pretty chunky but not too bad. The machine does make some noise when its switched on but it hasn’t bothered me at all. The wireless controller is excellent, very easy to set up with the box, well laid out and fits very comfortably in your hands. As with the box, it looks good and sturdy. I decided to also invest in a rechargeable battery (about ?8.99) and charger (about ?19.99) so that I wasn’t constantly going to need AA batteries. Its also good that you can turn the whole system on using the controller. Of course, I’ll have to invest in some more controllers at some point for when my mates fancy a game. Graphics, Speed and Memory I was disappointed with the graphics at first. On FIFA 08 the players were fuzzy and the screen a little dull. Of course, the box has an HDMI port so its easily fixed by buying an HDMI cable but the strange location of the HDMI port on my TV (which meant the chunky HDMI cable would be constantly on show sticking out the side of the TV) meant that I got a Component HD AV Cable (about ?19.99) instead and the difference between that and the standard cable is immense. Bright, vivid, and frankly a pleasure to look at. I’m happy with the loading time from when you turn the machine on and during games, all pretty quick. The Memory card fits in the front of the machine and has more than enough memory to save plenty of games (judging by the information that I’ve seen on the back of game boxes). Games I haven’t even tried the games that came with the system yet, I didn’t pay ?190 (amazon have put the price up ?10 since I bought it) to play the likes of pacman. The variety of games is amazing and shopping around means that you can usually get them well below their RRP. Being a massive sports fan my collection will revolve around the ES Sports Games (FIFA, Madden, NBA, Tiger Woods etc…) but there are tonnes of racing, war, 1st person and adventure games around ranging in the target age groups. I’ve so far got Madden, FIFA and NBA 08 and they all play really well. Puzzle games don’t really feature in the catalogue, I think they’ve catered for this through XBox Live where you can download arcade games using a membership but you’ll need a Hard Drive and to connect it to the internet for that (Hard Drives included with either the premium or elite versions or sold seperately) which I haven’t done as I don’t have wireless internet or a cable point near the TV (and I’m too rubbish at most games to want to play others online anyway!). Overall, this is a very good buy but its probably worth investing in a couple of accessories like I have to make it that bit better.

Xbox Live 12 month Gold Membership Card
Xbox Live is an online multiplayer gaming and content delivery system that allows registered users to create their own friends list of other users, and communicate with them via a mail-like system of either text or voice messages which can even be used to send a message to an offline user. With the new Xbox Live Vision camera, users can also send snapshot images to offline friends or video conference with them when they?re online. With the launch of the Xbox 360, Xbox Live went through a major change. The most notable change is the establishment of two subscription types, called Silver and Gold. Xbox Live Silver is free to all Xbox 360 owners. While it does not allow access to online play, it still has access to other Xbox Live features such as the friends list, messages, and the Xbox Live Marketplace. Xbox Live Gold, which requires a monthly or yearly subscription fee, allows users to access all available features on Xbox Live. Although there are no parental controls available in Xbox Live, any reports of misuse of the service for criminal or sexual purposes results in a permanent ban of the account. Key Features: Xbox Live has a number of great community-focused features and benefits such as: Gamertags - for user identification Avatars - gamer pictures for association with gamer tags Mottos - for display on gamer profiles Gamer zones - which represents your gaming style and influences player matchmaking (Recreation, Pro, Family, Underground) Game achievements - shows how well you and your friends are doing in a game Reputation rating - voted on by other players who decide to either prefer or avoid another player Gamerscores - a total of a player’s achievement points Friends list - a list of a player’s chosen friends Recent player list - lists the last 50 players one user has played with Xbox Live Marketplace content - download demos, trailers, new and retro games Multiplayer online gameplay - play against other gamers across the globe Enhanced m

HDMI Extender/Repeater/Coupler (up to 50m) Version 1.3 + 1080p (Perfect for PS3 & Xbox 360 Elite) Even our highest quality HDMI cable can only transmit effectively to distances of 15m. This small, compact unit allows the user to extend a HDMI signal up to 50m distances. The unit does not require mains power, unlike many other extenders currently on the market. The unit draws upon the power on the HDMI signal bus to effectively amplify, enhance and repeat the signal, eliminating any signal loss or noise, equalizing and stabilizing the transmission, but most importantly maintaining all 100% pure digital signal performance = picture perfection. As with all HD Cable products, the unit is HDMI Version 1.3 certified, supporting Full HD resolutions up to 1080p. Simple, easy plug & play set up. Simply connect the 2 HDMI cable lengths together using the extender unit as the coupler/joiner. For even greater distances, just add another extender unit to create a daisy chain of cables and extender units. NB: HD Cable recommends using our own cable products with the unit, as we can fully guarantee their signal performance up to 15m lengths. We do not supply, produce or recommend using cables longer than 15m due to the average HD devices output signal strength reaching a maximum 15m, with some devices far less.
