My 360 & Halo 2

Ah, I'm so jealous of everybody who has there's already. My friend won everytenminutes, and I had no such luck, so I have to wait until at least the 19th to play his, and then wait 3 more days to get my own.

Do you not know who Jeff Minter is? He is like the father of modern gaming and he made Tempest. He agreed to make an interactive visualisation for the 360 which is meant to be mind blowing.

Oh, I think I read an interview about him in OXM.

Sounds cool. Can't wait to try it out.

Father of modern gaming....how, exactly?   I mean...all I"m aware of is 50+ versions of that Drain-O sim, Tempest.  Anything else??

I didn't think it looked much better until I went back to 480i... wow what a difference!  I'm going to try 720p next and see if it looks different. 

My wife made me go out about 30 minutes after it arrived (Damn her!) so I'm just starting to play again.  Live won't register it yet but hopefully soon so I can take Halo 2 on-line.  I'm going to try Kameo next and then Minter's built in program!

I did check all the sources in town (Kamloops, BC) and no one had any other games for retail yet. :-(

Anyone know how to better post pictures?

Spudz, what the hell you're in Kamloops? So am I!
I pick up my 360 at 7:40 am on the 22nd at EB - cheers to ya congrats on the win

That last pic looks great.
Do you find it loads faster, I know it took me about 2 minutes yesterday to load H@ as I didn't have any cached (I think my drive may be going?).

Definitely faster!  Weird though, last time I tried to boot it tonight it wouldn't start.  The game was running but the start button did nothing.

What's up with the very visible jaggies there in Halo that show no sign of even AA? That definitely doesn't look like 720p to me.

Are you sure you have everything set up correctly?

Oh, and I agree with anekin, get some sort of support under the camera biggrin.gif
