Does the 360 add-on work well with the PC? Does it just plug into the USB im assuming? (not for me for my dad since he doesnt understand how to um.. work the computer well)

An HD-DVD drive plugged in over USB? Perhaps, I suppose there is technically enough bandwidth.

Well my point exactly, it'd have to be Firewire or e-SATA, neither of which are exactly prominent.

Speaking of which that MOBO that i got does it have a spot for Firewire? I didnt see one so i just have that loose cable inside of the case now.

Hey Sammorris, I just finished playing Timshift demo, It's kickass.
Gonna pick this up for sure.
Have you heard of Hellgate:London, Just finished watching some trailers, it looks really good.
If I can't sense time, How can I heal?
Why am I in this precorpse state?

I have yes, but I haven't looked into it much, both games look sweet.
Finally got round to playing the Perseus Mandate demo, it was awesome. Bonus, my system could run it at 2560x1600! :D

P.S. Not much for console gaming, But when Gran tourismo 5 comes out I think I'll be eyeballing a PS3 very seriously.

Nope, I suck way too much at Halo 3 to play online yet. Console FPS was never my bag...

I have all 4 of em, although it's hard to play 1 and two, the graphics are so bad compared to 3 and 4.

That doesn't make it hard, that just makes it retro. I've played all 4 (including 4 Prologue, and the 2002 concept edition) and I enjoyed them all immensely. If anything though, I think GT3 was my favourite.

I said GT DOES NOT equal gran turismo :(
I have only played 3 and 4 and might i add i suck incredibly at them. I also suck at forza 1 and 2. I am however quite skilled at microsoft flight simulator. Go figure.
I drive in real life but i cant in a game.
I sure as hell cant fly a plane but im wicked in a simulator.
Bad comparison but still

Haha taken from a review for it "I'm not enough of a racing fan to pay $300 for it, but those who do may very well find it to be the Lexus of gaming wheels."
Yeah im good. Ill stick to my super unrealistic "burnout revenge" thank you very much.
