I only jerk off to Garfield cartoons, I think this is considered normal.

Game list propagation has been horrendous for as long as I can remember.

Fable 2's loading is starting to get on my nerves.Apparently, it doesn't.QuoteI began installing Fable II at 10:14pm and it finished by 10:25pm. I'm not sure that the game loaded any faster—maybe you could catch it with a stopwatch, but I couldn’t with casual observation.But I did notice that Fable’s auto-guidance system reacted more quickly to my directional changes. Pop-ins may have been a little improved as well, though I was able to duplicate a few problems I experienced with the disc in.The biggest benefit was that the DVD didn’t spin nonstop. In fact, it didn’t spin at all. Since my test 360 has gone through two optical drives already, I was happy to have the option to lessen the wear and tear on my 360.

How is 16:10 going to work? I'm assuming that's just for the dash and not games.
I really don't like the new friends list.
I'd use the HDD feature to run the one game I was focused on at the time (example being Fallout 3 for now)
Fallout 3I was originally pretty happy with how quickly the game loaded up, and while 48 seconds doesn’t exactly set any land-speed records, it beats some of the other loading times out there. After waiting 8 minutes and 37 seconds for the 5.9 GBs worth of files to install, I gave it another shot. The second time around, times were cut to an even better 25 seconds from the dashboard menu to the action. I also timed the loading times for transitioning between inside and outside game environments. Before installing the game, these transitions took about 20 seconds; afterward, it was halved. If you’re planning on spending a serious amount of time with the game, that time savings is going to stack up over time.
So I own a 1440x900 monitor, but don't know a whole lot about scaling. What will look better-- running upscaled at 1440x900 or at the game's native 1280x720?
So install to hard drive doesn't cut down on load times at all, well, maybe a little. I'll do it because its quieter and I won't get DRMs, but otherwise, what's the point?
I refuse to buy a Jasper 360 because it will turn orange and start hollering about 23 years and singing rocky top.
Do you think it'll help with the UE3 texture load issues?
Now, if you install a game. Will it run off the HDD by default, or do you have to go to the game list and choose run off HDD every time?
There is an option in NXE to disable autoplay upon inserting disc,very cool.
Here it ishttp://www.megaupload.com/?d=AVHUHD0SSomeone want to take the risk? I dont think you will get banned for it.
