hmm played cod2 and kingkong on the x360 today in some store and I think cod2 looks pretty good the framerate is like 60 or so gg xbox.
But I couldnt play with that controller lol...
About kingkong, I think it looked better then cod2 but then again it had clearly had some slowdowns..

i knew getting one would be sorta hard but i didnt know it would be so damn crazy. Like all night people going to different stores trying to find the shit, raffles, fucking people waiting for 24 hours literally, and other crazy shit. Its so not worth all that but not being able to get it made me want it more. So i found a store i had to wait from midnight till morning to get just a normal system and Perfect Dark. And guess what it sucks ass! just kidding i never played it yet, i need a hard drive or at least a mem card which they didnt sell either.

Here’s the things that bug me so far and are minimal.
Ok now I have my xbox360 standing on my TV pretty high up well 3 1/2 feet from the floor. I got a problem with the frigen HUGE power supply. They made the cord to short on the wrong end. So I have to have this UGLY power supply beside the Beautiful Xbox 360. I wish the cord was longer on the other side so I could hide it behind the TV. Stupid design in the power supply
Also beware they place a sticker over the DVD eject tray, Mine wouldn't open at first and I thought it was ****ed...it’s hard to detect. So that’s a warning for you guys.
Other than that everything is flawless so far and I'm loving it, the interface is liquid smooth.
PD0 is the killer app in my eyes; it looks great on my regular TV. I haven't play online yet so thats next...I'll update ya:]
So overall I'm very happy.
Post your nit picks

I got mine bitches! I camped outside Best Buy from 5:30pm last night until 8am in the morning. It was raining hard the whole night but I made it. I picked up the premium pack and Perfect Dark Zero Limited Edition. Now I just need a plasma or an LCD tv. PDZ looked incredible in 720p in the store display. It still looks good on my tv but I definitely need a new set. I didn't have Xbox 1 so I can't wait to play on Xbox Live!

What I'm interested in is how these next-gen games look on a regular tv, are there any sites out there with screens taken on a regular tv? There shuld be since I doubt most people wont have a HDTV.
It obviously wont look as good as on a HDTV, but how exactly will it look?

From what ives seen last night, colors are quite brighter and details are a little bit better on a HDTV...nothing to go spend 3000$ but like i said in my previous post, first games on the 360 probably use only 55% of the hardware potential so expect high quality games in maybe a year

And before saying that COD 2 looks better on Xbox 360 base on what Infinity Ward said try to compare the 2 in the first place. With an High-end Machine, everything at high AA 4x, the game looks better on PC. Next time try to not make an ass of yourself and look outside the box.

Yeah take the pic with the framerate for the PC version. The 360 version runs at a solid 60fps and all the details maxed on DX9. Sure, the resolution isn't as high as you can get it on the PC, but then again, if you want a PC that can run it just as well it's going to cost £2000.

Thats true, i dont get a solid 60fps all the time..or am i...i'll have to get back for that but the graphics/lightning/textures looks better on a high-end PC as we tested it last night. Just need to wait for Quake 4 and compare those 2.

I'm not buying an HDTV now cause I am very pleased with what I see om my 36 inch regular TV. I think its all hyped so they can sell more HDTV's. Plus I'm not up and close anyway so it looks great to me! |

PD0 is the game to get, I've been playing multiplayer for hours now...I like the fact you can hide behind things and have a fire fight from a distance...ultra cool. I haven't mastered the rolls yet but when I do its going to be very effective at getting out of the way.
I don't like halo at all so if ya expect it to be. You might find you don't move as fast.
My gamer score is 60 hehe I don't know if thats good or bad 
edited: It feels very close to CS...a little slower...you get to buy your weopens at the beginning...stuff like that. But I like PD0 much better than CS. Much more versitile interms of different modes and gameplay!!!

I was just checking my Achievements in mulitplayer {you have to unlock them}
10 headshot kills
10 rounds survived
10 minutes survived
This is so fucking cool...I love this feature..so far I got 3 out of 50 for PD0...long way to go.
plus I love the fact that you get online overall rankings.
Microsoft has done a bang up job on xbox live...you don't get this kihda stuff with PC games.You get a whole intergrated comunity feeling I mean a huge community...once it gets going.
I'm sorry but I'm hooked big time...this is changing online gameing in a major way...I'll be converting from a PC gamer to a console gamer. I'm really surprised to hear me say this!!!

I was playing Project Gotham 3 and the detail is insane, its so much better than in any screenshots or videos I've seen. And I only have a flat screen, its not an HDTV, so all of that stuff about it not looking next-gen unless you have an HDTV is complete bullshit. I know it looks better, but if you see how it looks on a normal screen you will be blown away. I would take a screenshot but I dont have a hard drive yet...and i dont know if you can transfer photos from xbox to pc.
