Xbox has officially been named my worst console ever!
Putting all my past problems with the POS aside. I have discovered today that it is impossible for me to use this console in High Definition. The thing has a manufacturing date of 2008-10-18. And nowhere in the city of Pretoria can I find a xbox hdmi cable. And i had to pay R500 for a 512mb memory unit. WTF i might as well have bought a 500GB harddrive for my pc.
**** microsoft and **** the xbox.

Ahhhh I'll be commiting fanboy blasphemy tonight.
Will be playing Halo 2 with my DS3
Finally got it to work on Vista Ultimate 64bit
As much as I love halo, i will have to say that halo 2 on pc is not the same experience as halo 2 on the xbox ! the pc version (even though it has better graphics) has lost the x factor imo

Combat Evolved was already a horrible port IMO.
Driving the warthog was a nightmare with a mouse.
maar wat worry ek, so lank ek die ding klaar kan maak dan is als oraait.

Combat evolved sucked on pc, i regretted selling my xbox copy, cause the pc version slows down even on a high end athlon 64 x2 with 2 gigs of ram

So it wasn't just me then, I thought it was pretty weird that I couldn't run it at Full Resolutions and just blamed my Hardware.
Poor Porting FTL!

Idiots at gearbox didnt optimize the code for the pc platform, which is pretty stupid as the xbox was a scaled down pc that ran x86 instructions

Bleh, I struggled for 5hours to get Halo 2 working on Windows 7
Windows is kaka!
I only use it for the odd game here and there but further than that I don't use it.
Me has becomes a Linux man due to Server Admin here at work.
Gearbox must've been real lazy with the port probably left the porting to some noob lol!
my 360 works quite fine in high def.any hdmi cable will work or a 360 vga kit, on your xbox
And you would you suggest I plug in a HDMI cable in a console that has no HDMI port?
Where can i get the damn hard drive?

windows is not the best os but its a helluva lot better than linux imo, the only thing i like about linux is its stability, rest of the time most of the distro's looks like the gui's come from the windows 3.1 era !

with a manufacturing date of
HDMI port should be standard ! my replacement 360 was manufactured may last year and it's got HDMI
bid or buy ! local xbox forum etc ! Im also going to be selling xbox accessories soon ! hopefully i'll get the vga kits from my supplier in two weeks time, that'll work on your 360
