Indeed, save up a few more months and get a better one.
I mean if you're a high schooler, or in a dorm etc. then maybe a cheaper one is ok (or if it's a second TV), but otherwise you get what you pay for.
I was glad as hell I didn't settle for a cheap brand (or a small TV) and saved up another 6 months or so and bought a 50" Sony when I finally took the HD plunge a couple summers ago. Well worth it for the size and better picture quality.

My current TV is the Sony KV-27HS420 27-Inch FD Trinitron WEGA HD-Ready CRT TV (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-KV-27HS420-27-Inch-Trinitron-HD-Ready/dp/B0002S9G0K) that I got in Fall of 2004 for $500. It does 720p and 1080i, plus kicks ass at 480i and p. It has such nice colors and deep as hell blacks. Only downsides are it's small and weights 111 pounds.
My friend has the 34 inch XBR version, and it's a beast, weighing 190 pounds. We had to move it up a flight of stairs when he got it, then back down when he moved. Sucked ass.

Encore is harder since it starts at a harder difficulty than the main island does without any of the perks you earn to get that far on the main island, too. It's to wait to see if you can beat PJM first before getting Encore.

I have the 32" version and hell yes, it is heavy (175 I think). The only downside with this TV for me is that I have to watch all HD content letterboxed, but I am close enough to the TV that it isn't much of an issue. Tubes have the best colors so it is going to be a love/hate thing when I finally take the plunge on a nice flat screen.

Yeah, those heavy ass TVs are a pain, especially if you move a lot.
I had a 27" Sony Wega SD tv for several years (gave it to my friend) that was heavy as hell. Weighed 99 pounds. By comparison my 50" Sony LCD RPTV weighs 66 lbs.

It always sounds like a great idea, but even when I try to do it, I can't pull it off. After a few hours, I have to go do something else. Night time is a bit different. With a good enough game, I can play from like 6 to 2 or 3. Though I haven't done that in a while either. Might do it tonight to finish Mass Effect.
GGT, I've been playing lots of games that I initially disliked lately. Chrono Trigger, GTA4, GRAW2, and Mass Effect in particular. Love all of them now.

ZOE 1 and 2 are a great way to spend a weekend. I picked up both recently for cheap and finished 1 in under 5 hours and 2 somewhere in the 10 hr range. 1 is not that great, but its a fast, cheap introduction to the setting. ZOE2 stands up still as one of the best mech games. It plays like what all of the gundam game should play like. Fast paced action with story cut scenes.
I really hope Kojima decides to make ZOE3.

I'd guess the beta lasted 2 years then since it took them that long to acknowledge the system's hardware failures.
Henry Hatsworth is a real good time. Yeah, the puzzle part is basically bejeweled/columns/tetris attack, and the platforming isn't groundbreaking either, but the game controls well, blends surprisingly seamlessly between the two genre types, and is just plain fun overall. Definitely a memorable and worthwhile experience. Great job, EA!

Yeah, English title is that.
Fun game though, it's a puzzle game where you throw trash into a giant bin, ala Tetris/whathaveyou.
But stuff breaks downs so you can fit it all in the can. You can cause fires to clear room, decompose stuff with water, shake it up. There's even "boss battles" where you have to break down like a big piggy bank for something.
Neat puzzler basically.

Random Thought:
How much do you think I could get for a DS bundle that looks something like this:
BLACK DS LITE
GAMES:
Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword
New Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario 64 DS
Elite Beat Agents
Mario Kart DS
Guitar Hero On Tour
Advance Wars: Days Of Ruin
Big Brain Academy
Castlevania Dawn Of Sorrow+Castlevania Portrait of Ruin
Cooking Mama
Dragon Quest Rocket Slime
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker
Gunpey DS
Magical Starsign
Eyeshield 21 Max Devil Power (IMPORT)
Metroip Prime Pinball
First 2 Phoenix Wright games
Pokemon Trozei
Professor Layton
Spectrobes
True Swing Golf
Would it be better off as a bundle or individual stuff?
I also have a few DS accessories as well.
I'm not 100% sure, just curious how much I could get from CAG.
Shipping would be astronomical because I'm from Canada.

Mass Effect is shaping up nicely too. I didn't do a whole lot of side missions, so my playthrough is around 21 hours, but I feel like starting up New Game+ immediately after finishing. Also had lesbian sex twice, which is two more times than any other game has offered.

I wanted one at launch, 2 hours out in the cold to be told "We don't have enough for everyone." :bomb: At least I had a good breakfast after that.
I picked up my Core in the first week of January 2006, right after New Year's Day. Strolled into EB games, they had one Core, so I hopped on it, bought DoA4 and component cable there, 20 GB HDD at Circuit City. Ordered Condemned online the next day, friend bought NFS Most Wanted to play on it. I bought the warranty from MS too, just because I've already heard about problems at that point.
My favorite part is how they swore up and down "We don't need HDMI." and later they added it.
A friend has a Jasper, and it is so cool, quiet, and light compared to mine. Power brick weighs almost nothing compared to my heavy ass brick. I'm on my 3rd 360, surprised it's not my 4th by now.
Oh well, that's the price you pay for being an early adpoter. It happens with all technology.

Adding something that you said wasn't important and screwing over early adopters is worse than removing something leaving the early adopters with a better model.

I don't think MS cares all that much either anymore. They haven't updated it in a while. My Xbox DVD drive is a Thompson piece of shit that barely works. So I'd appreciate being able to play all of my Xbox games on my 360. Whatever though, I should just go find a replacement drive.
I don't play PS1 or PS2 games on my PS3. I've complained about the input lag, granted, most shit it doesn't even matter with, but the bigger factor now is DVDs and CDs causing Blu-ray drives to fail faster. Besides, my PS2 works just fine for that, and I can't play imports on my PS3.
And I agree, HDMI isn't as significant as taking out BC. Component does a fine job, I'd just like to have HDMI because I'd use it with my receiver. Adding it after they said it wasn't necessary irks me, but whatever. Like I said, that's the price you pay for early adoption. How many people have old iPods that don't have shit compared to new ones?

It's any DVD medium, PS2 game, DVD movie, etc. It apparently has to do with the laser having to change focus, and after a while it'll stop reading any discs.

As for GOTY, too many I haven't played yet. I'm always behind since I don't play a ton and wait for stuff on Goozex so it's usually the following summer or fall before I can pick a firm GOTY for the prior year.
Gears 2 has that spot now for the campaign (have beaten in 3 times--casual by myself then hardcore and insane with my roommate in co-op). I love the Gears games, so I doubt anything will surpass it. Fallout 3 (which I have on the shelf waiting more free time, probably has the best chance. Playing Fable 2 and like it a lot, but not as much, and I don't see myself like L4D more. And that's probably all the 2008 games I'll play that I haven't yet unless something is slipping my mind.

Four hours. No desire to play it on the hardest level, level design is poor, the cutscenes are ridiculously shitty, controls are weird, and you use the same two weapons the entire game. :/

Been playing alot of Phantasy Star Portable. I have to say it got rid of all the cumbersome shit in the Universe console version... Plus combat actually is fun this time, which I'm surprised seeing how much I hated Universes.
They still have glowing Hamtaros though.
got my first game over in Madworld last night... genna try it again. I'm about 75% done. I like it but will buy it when it's cheaper due to it ebing damn short. I want it more for my collection since it's an strong aesthetic work as well as use of humor. best commentary in a game ever as well.

yeah, I still strongly know Mass Effect was a better GotY than Bioshock.
That's a tough one, but I think you're on to something. I loved every last minute of ME, but slogged through those last few hours of Bioshock. can't bring myself back to do an "evil" run.
yet I just finished ME a minute ago and am already starting up another playthrough :)

Gears 2 has that spot now for the campaign (have beaten in 3 times--casual by myself then hardcore and insane with my roommate in co-op). I love the Gears games, so I doubt anything will surpass it. Fallout 3 (which I have on the shelf waiting more free time, probably has the best chance. Playing Fable 2 and like it a lot, but not as much, and I don't see myself like L4D more. And that's probably all the 2008 games I'll play that I haven't yet unless something is slipping my mind.
Oh, also will play Prince of Persia...forgot about it until I saw e-mail from Goozex saying it was on the way. But I don't think that's remotely a GotY contender.
That's a tough one, but I think you're on to something. I loved every last minute of ME, but slogged through those last few hours of Bioshock. can't bring myself back to do an "evil" run.
ME was my GotY for 2007 too. But it was a tough call as I loved Bioshock. And Call of Duty 4. And Halo 3. Was a hell of a year for games.
Also have never done the evil run of Bioshock or a 2nd playthrough of ME yet. Just hard to get motivated to replay games with limited time. Would generally rather play something for the first time.
