[quote name='TFN']Why not just order one from Monoprice?[/QUOTE]

Agree. Their cables are awesome and the prices are unbeatable.

I have one from monoprice. And I still have that HDMI problem. Behold!

So I wanna give monster cables or some other brand name a try, but I don't want to spend the $100 on a cable if it's not a cable problem.
 
I had a problem with my HDMI port on my 32'', but when I upgraded to the 37, it was fixed.

Its probably your TV if it had been working before. I thought all cables were essentially the same? :/
 
A seller on Amazon had the official Guitar Hero III bag, the promo strap, and the keychain for $25 shipped. All sealed. I bit on that sucker. Two guitars are a bitch to carry back and forth, loose.
 
[quote name='temp']And no, not Pilotwings 64 DS.[/quote]I wish.

Cables are all the same Temp.
You're only paying for the sleeve on other cables.

What is your HDMI problem? Video is dark.

I was pretty surprised when I got that case/bag, because I didn't know it held two guitars (plus, I wasn't expecting to get it, either.) Plus, there's a little punch on it to put the GH game case in. Two guitars fit in there really well.
 
Thanks for the info, Plume. Last night was the first night taking the guitars back from my father's house, and they were a hassle to carry. Banging into things, knocking against the walls in my entryway. Not to mention me being afraid of having them lose in my car, afraid the whammy bars would get bent or break.

I thought about getting some other brand's bag, but I don't want crazy logos and skulls or spiders on my carrying gear.

The white flashing horizontal lines. They flash up a few times in the video.


Some say all cables are the same, and yet, the same amout of people say they aren't. I just wanted to test it out.

Guess i'll have to upgrade to a new tv. fuckkkkkkkk.

No problem.

The strap is just a bonus strap - nothing really special about it other than its design. It's nice to have a spare strap, I guess. Of course, the rubbery key chain is on my keys already! :lol:

On another note, my head is pounding so bad that I can barely see straight. I wanted to color some stuff I scanned, but I can barely focus. I may just go back to bed...
 
Trust me, they're the same for digital cables (optical and hdmi).

Now with analog cables, then yeah, they make a difference.
 
I actually look at a girls face before scoping everything else out.

Unless I'm walking behind her.. then the ass is as good as her face.
 
But I heard that cheaper HDMI cables are prone to interference, and maybe that's my problem? I dunno, I just wish I had a means of testing these things out.
 
[quote name='TFN']That bitches forehead is monstrous.[/quote]

She's all teeth.

And annoying as fuck.

SPAH-GHET-TI. PRO-SCHOO-TO.

Yeah, your family is Italian, we get it. Now if you want to be really useful, take one of those knives, and go show it to Rachel Ray.
 
81 stars in Galaxy playthrough 2. Almost done.

Ouch. Should've bought the game from RedOctane, it came with all that for free. I got that shit, plus a faceplate and a shirt for $90 shipped.
 
[quote name='TFN']Buy 10 diff HDMI cables from Walmart, try 'em all out, then return 'em w/ your receipt.[/quote]

Heh, I thought about it, but Sears has the 42'' Olevia LCD with 1080P for $900.
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']But I heard that cheaper HDMI cables are prone to interference, and maybe that's my problem? I dunno, I just wish I had a means of testing these things out.[/quote]It's an on or off signal, there can't be interence.

Buy a $200 HDMI cable, if it fixes that problem, I'll buy you a coke.
 
[quote name='TFN']Its not supposed to be, Ackbar. :/[/QUOTE]

And I think that hurts the game. I dunno, I'm just finding it dull. It's like I've seen all this before.
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']Heh, I thought about it, but Sears has the 42'' Olevia LCD with 1080P for $900.[/quote]

Up til yesterday, 1080p Westy 42" was 871.23.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']I know it's not HD, but cartoon network doesn't look bad over just coax (through a digital cable box).[/quote]You're still getting a nice, clean digital signal.
Enjoy.
 
[quote name='Rocko']Ouch. Should've bought the game from RedOctane, it came with all that for free. I got that shit, plus a faceplate and a shirt for $90 shipped.[/quote]

Yeah, but at the time, I didn't want the game. By the time I realized I wanted it, the deal was over. :cry:

there's a little fuzz, but you only really notice it on things with humans.
 
[quote name='TFN']Got Eternal Sonata and Gears of War for 27 bucks at a pawn shop tent sale. :D :D :D :D[/quote]
don't you already have gears?

let's fire up oblivion on this bitch. :D
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']holy fucking christ! :drool:[/QUOTE]
Does it look as good as Mario Galaxy? I don't think so.
 
fuck, did XBL delete some videos when it transitioned to its "new interface" or whatever? I can't find that Demetri Martin video that I wanted to buy.

I'd like to see where the same amount of people say they aren't all the same.

Whoever says that is an idiot.

Corrosive, Oblivion isn't really that good looking of a game, if you want to be impressed, I would load up... I guess Resistance.

I would say Uncharted, but the demo isn't that impressive visually (though there are parts in the retail that are great).

I was also impressed by the Motorstorm and Genji demos, but that was about a year ago.

If you want some visually impressive games, get a 360.

Some videos are only on the marketplace for a limited time.

Oh shit, I rolled so long and hard there... I think I ... might... be... :puke:

No longer have Resistance --Tekken DR, Everyday Shooter, Oblivion, Ninja Gaiden Sigma

Oblivion is fucking gorgeous. It looks almost real. The only one I haven't tried was NGS.

:rofl: @ you for knocking Galaxy's visuals.
 
You look a little tired, Mox. Of course, that would be like saying, "So, utop, you look a little hairy." But hey, all we have to go by are avatars. So saying, I'm assuming you dogged your avatar for a reason?
 
[quote name='Rocko']:rofl: @ you for knocking Galaxy's visuals.[/quote]
Knocking it's visuals isn't what I did. I laughed at his claim that SMG had better graphics than oblivion.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']I played galaxy for about 20-30 minutes on a nice LCD TV in 480p. It looked like a fuzzy Super Mario Sunshine. Not that graphics are the most important thing ever if gameplay is solid... hell, i wouldn't have said anything if it wasn't for fellow wii-fanboy dcfox claiming mario galaxy was the shiznite up there.[/quote]

Say what?
