[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-06-28 Summary: The best you can get ... After my initial HD cables that came with the system broke :'( I had to go out and get another set of cables that had a higher definition, without full HD, but that could also play on standard definition televisions, and these are great! You don't have to hook them up to the S-Video port, but its a great addition for a little quality boost if you don't want to spend all your money on an HD TV. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-01-30 Summary: I tried others--this is much better ... Like many of you folks, I've used a million or so cables over the years: Monster Cables, freebies, various other premium cables--digital signals, analog, etc... I've never used a bad s-video cable, until I tried the Xbox 360 S-Video AV Cable for my 360 (my TV's component in is wonky). Dot crawl, moire, and just plain fuzzy. I'm not sure it was the cable or the connector that plugs in the back of the 360, but it was awful. Knowing that there had to be a better solution, I paid the extra dough and bought this Microsoft ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-08-26 Summary: The origanal Xbox is still the best ... My kids have the original Xbox and they love it. They have had it for years. What I have observed is that Microsoft has learned from this first console. Was that it (The original Xbox) was built better than it needed to be. So they designed the Xbox 360 with much cheaper and far less durable components. Most of my friends who have purchased them have had them break within 1 year. They are also very expensive, run very hot and to enjoy the full gaming experience you need to buy all kinds of accessories like hard drives, ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-16 Summary: 21" LCD vs. 52" DLP vs. 42" LCD TV ... I was so anxious to see the picture quality compared to my Samsung 52" 1080p DLP and Sony 42" LCD TV using HDMI connections. It took me a minute to install this cable and I must say the picture quality on the 21" LCD is no match for the Samsung and Sony. Picture quality on the Sony looked the best. Even though games don't look as good on the monitor, I will be leaving the xbox connected to it because it's more convenient for me. Maybe I'll get a PS3 to take advantage of the TV. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-24 Summary: For anyone with a LCD Monitor ... I highly recommend this for anyone using a LCD Monitor as a screen. This is mainly intended for those seeking fast screen response times from their monitor, as the image undergoes little post-cable processing with the VGA hookup and if you set the resolution to the native display of your monitor, the picture will look great. If you're only interested in picture quality, and don't even know what screen lag is, then use HDMI or Component. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-16 Summary: Cable good ... Xbox looks so much better on my HP 22" monitor with this cable than it did with component hookup to my Samsung DLP. Well worth the $15 IMO. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-30 Summary: Great for non-HDMI xbox owners, or PC monitor owners. ... Like many people have commented, if you use a HD LCD TV with HDMI support, and have a 360 with the HDMI output, you don't need this. I got a Samsung LN46A650 HD LCD tv on boxing day and had the composite cables with my 360 (non-HDMI capable). The picture was awesome for games, but I also have the HD DVD player and wanted 1080p as well as DVD upscaling (which composite won't do), so I got this cable from Future Shop. The cable's box is misleading though, as it says it only supports up to 720p, which is not true anymore. ...more
[5] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-16 Summary: Excellent Cable ... The cable is very nice. I'm able to play my 360 on the old VGA monitor I had in storage perfectly. I'm very happy with the shipping. It arrived about a week after my order. Price wasn't that bad, either. ...more

After one of our favorite games was released for windows, I decided it would be easier to just play it on our laptop while we were away.

As far as Spider-man games go, this one is the best. The gameplay is truly fluid and addictive. As far as the storyline goes, it is original. Some of the dialogue with Luke Cage and Moon Knight is corny, and the voiceover for spiderman himself could have been a little better.

Very repetitive in terms of fighting.

Though it didn't get reviewed especially well in the gaming press, it's a surprisingly fun Spider-Man game and easily among the best super hero games to have come out this year. It also sports an original and somewhat dark plot that sets it apart from your average Spidey game. Gameplay-wise, "Web of Shadows" borrows from the sandbox ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-03 Summary: A must have for the G25 ... Awesome seat, a must have if you already own a g25. Sturdy, solid, and well built. Have had no issues with vibrations as others have stated, just be sure to tighten everything really good and you will be all set. My favorite part is how easily it comes apart after playing. You can detach the entire front section and be left with just the chair alone, which was a huge selling point for me as I did not want a racing cockpit taking up space in my living room. Also, if you race using a standard transmission, you will want ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-25 Summary: Too much to write! ... There's a whole list of good things I can say about this chair, too many to write. If you're considering and can overcome the price, go for it! It's solid as a rock. The chair is comfortable. There are just the right amount of adjustments. It's great. I highly recommend the shifter attachment and the Logitech G25 racing wheel. If you're a racer, this is for you! ...more
[5] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-12-26 Summary: Great way to clean up your PC desk! ... I have been sim-racing for a while now with everything mounted to my computer desk. And my biggest peeve was the fact that it was a hassle removing everything when I was done racing, so I would leave everything on my desk and work around it. This wasn't very comfortable and I needed to find a solution. Well This Seat is really great it allows me to have everything setup and I can simply pull it away from the computer desk when I'm done racing. The build on this is very impressive, its very sturdy steel and will handle ...more

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-01-02 Summary: Awesome! ... Awesome product! Works pretty much as advertised. The Setup Wizard searches Logitech's extensive database for your product serial numbers and map the buttons accordingly. The only problem I had was that sometimes the SW doesn't give me enough options to fine tune things the way I want them but I think for most people, it will suit their needs just fine. Plays very well with my 360. I've owned many Universal remotes and I think Harmonys are by far the easiest to set up. Not to mention, I love their stylish design. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-31 Summary: One great remote. ... This one of the best remotes out there. It automates your processes. For example, When I hit "Watch DVD" it turns on my xbox 360, AV Receiver, and TV, Puts the TV and Receiver on the correct inputs, and even opens the 360 tray for me. It takes a little while to program but it's well worth it. It had all of my devices and all of the special functions of it such as, Listening Mode, Dimmer, Test Tone, etc. I did have to customize the buttons such as "y" and "a" to be page up and page down for my dish (DVR 522).

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-10-13 Summary: Great Fun for Aerosmith Fans ... The important thing to realize about Guitar Hero Aerosmith is that it is not an "improvement". It is simply Guitar Hero with Aerosmith songs and band members. If you love Aerosmith, this could be fantastic! If you don't like Aerosmith then (perhaps obviously) you should look elsewhere. I happen to love Aerosmith songs so I found the game fantastically fun. The locations are based on places Aerosmith played - Nipmuc high school, the Orpheum, a half time show. They did an awesome job with the "characters" in the game, ...more

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas(tm) Official Strategy Guide (XBOX and PC) (Signature)
Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2005-10-05 Summary: More a hintbook than a Strategy Guide ... The book was excellent but for those who have a PC would prefer the X BOX hints also have hints for PC. The light was shining on those who had X BOX not a PC. It does not suggest any of the schools which makes it difficult for those who have trouble, lets say in driving school. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2005-08-19 Summary: Good book! ... I actually just found out that Bradygames released 2 books, (PS2, and XBOX + PC) for this game. This XBOX + PC Book is almost completely accurate in terms of where it says items or locations should be. Well, I should say that the maps in the "Odd Jobs" chapter are 100% accurate. The maps in the beginnings of the other chapters are -slightly- off (no idea why though), but if you like to explore in the GTA games, a rough location plus a description is all you need! Lots of maps, Racing maps, weapon locations, actual ...more

[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-10-02 Summary: Comparison of PS2 to XBOX and PC Version ... I have owned both versions of this guide, and I ended up giving away the PS2 Version. It was very inaccurate in some of the locations of items. For a specifice example, the locations of the Photo ops in San Fierro. The locations were not accurate, and not even matched up correctly by number. Even some of the horseshoe locations were completely inaccurate that they were not even the correct location, which annoyed me because I spent a large amount of time searching for something that was not there. I own a PS2, but ...more

Did you know the following facts about Xbox?
The Xbox 360 was the first home console to be released in the seventh generation of game consoles and competes against Sony's PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's Wii.
In February of 2003, planning for the Xenon software platform began, and was headed by Microsoft VP J Allard.
With the launch of the Xbox 360, Microsoft's online gaming service, Xbox Live went through a major upgrade, adding a basic non-subscription service, Silver, to its already established premium subscription-based service, Gold.
Xbox Live Gold has the same features as Silver, plus online game playing capabilities.
John Carmack stated at QuakeCon 2005 that the Xbox 360 has "the best development environment I've seen on a console".
Backward compatibility is achieved through software emulation of the original Xbox.
