Dunno if this is new information, 180 pages is a lot of pages to catch up on, but the Target by me in Irvine, CA said that the official street date for the presales of the console (at least for the DCPI # from this thread) is 10/30 (next Tuesday) so they didn't have any/wouldn't sell me one...

Do they ever do consoles as part of these sales? I never really pay attention to them...

Yeah, I'm not sure about this... normally that's the case, but I've been sitting on "Sent to Warehouse" since I ordered mine (about 3 minutes after this was posted here). I also have not been charged, despite claims (I think here, but definitely on another forum) that people were being charged...

Nice, I read this thread a few hours before it went up on Kotaku but I saw it there this morning. Congrats man! In other thread-hijacking, but somewhat on-topic news, this, SF4 and a few other posts/auctions I've seen recently have inspired me to build up a console/MAME cab (mainly for SF4 and...

I'll give that a go when I get a spare VGA cable then; if not I can always go bang my head on the brick wall that is Circuit City's (technically the warranty underwriters) line, although I'm not too hopeful there. They did tell me that since the store is going under if they did have to replace...

That's basically the mode it's running in now; I can try going in through VGA but I don't have a spare VGA cable for my 360 right this second... so it's pretty unheard of for latency to change over time then? The repair guy that was out here yesterday said he could imagine it happening, hasn't...

Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this but I figured I'd ask since we're mostly (if not all) gamers here. I've had my 50" Sony KDS-R50 XBR1 for about 3 years now and this past year I've started noticing pretty bad latency as well as color issues. I had the optics engine replaced since the TV...

Damn... took a few days off from CAG lurking and this is what I get. Well, we're in the middle of the Pacific Northwest SNOWY APOCALYPSE OF DOOM (DOOM... doom...) so hopefully not a lot of people braved the roads to get this yet. BB's online store inventory checker apparently doesn't work...

1. Not without a video splitter, you basically unplug the cables from your TV and plug them into this unit. If you get a splitter you'll notice a decrease in picture quality on both probably. 2. No, you'd have to go buy a USB2.0 card and install it (another $20 which it doesn't sound like you...

I still haven't solved my DScaler/WaveIn issue; it's odd since I get fine audio when I'm playing, but if I hit record it says it can't access the WaveIn device. The default software doesn't even run on my laptop so I'm not sure if it's a driver issue, a Vista issue or a DScaler issue... guess I...

I got this thing to use on my laptop; I had some initial hiccups getting it to work at all, the Intervideo software was just craptastic on this box, but I went to DScaler and it worked like a charm. I occasionally get a few stutters, but after tweaking the settings a bit I ended up getting a...
