Looks sweet! Thanks for showing the resolutions, too!

How's the performance with games loaded to the hard drive? I know noise elimination is the real reason behind it, although they'll never say that.

performance is just a little better, I only noticed a difference with the cars loading in Forza 2

the dash in general is much faster, you really see a difference when comparing games, and looking at the demo's or Arcade blades

I think most people will be happy with it once they give it a try

Edit: and you can't install an original XBOX game

DanishDevil · Nov 9, 2008

I agree. I think people were too thrown back by the avatars and...how should I put this...non-hardcore interface. I think it's a positive move.

BTW - friend DanishDev on XBL. I won't be on for a month, but I'd love to play a few with ya.

will do

why won't you be on?

DanishDevil · Nov 9, 2008

I'm in Argentina studying abroad. I have strong reason to believe I won't be able to get on XBL here, and I didn't want to mess with customs or the possibility of breaking my 360 or getting it stolen.

TrainingDummy · Nov 9, 2008

oh cool

just send me an invite next time you get on

DanishDevil · Nov 9, 2008

Sounds good man. Let us know if you find anything you don't like about the NXE.

alexp999 · Nov 9, 2008

We have finally exchanged and are moving house on Friday 14th Nov, but BT cant get the broadband active till the 2nd Dec! :cry:

So I have two options:

1, Install leaked NXE
2, Try to get get to my aunts, who has broadband sometime after 19th.

Do you reckon its worth the risk of installing it early? or do you have to have a modded 360 to do it anyway? Or is it just safer to try to get to my aunts?

:toast:

TrainingDummy · Nov 9, 2008

just wait, it is nice to have, but isn't worth the risk of being banned

you only have 9 more days to wait anyway

MilkyWay · Nov 10, 2008

dont install it early

im going to make a gamepowerup! branch of the club

TrainingDummy said:
nope, wasn't a tester, just got it early

Cool! I didnt realise it was possible to signup for it early

Im just going to wait until the 19th before I install it on my Elite

OT: anyone waiting for 'Mirrors Edge'?

Cold Storm · Nov 10, 2008

Mirror Edge does look pretty nice. I am looking forward for it, but won't be getting it probably till I get my PS3.. Need something to play on that system.. Lol

New Wave of Banned Xbox

Was just on the Xbox scene forum and saw that loads of Xboxs are being banned at the moment, both modded and none modded.

Thought I would give the xbox clubhouse members the heads up!

Looks like the forum has taken down the thread. Hence the broken link. I'm sure a quick google will get you up to speed though

MilkyWay · Nov 11, 2008

the xbox 360 vga cable is good, you plug the little audio adapter into your line in on your sound card

its good got a nice picture and if youve got good speakers better audio than standard tv

OT: Mirrors Edge is pretty good.........and a refreshing change from the standard FP game (which is usually a FPS)

DanishDevil · Nov 12, 2008

What's Mirror's Edge all about again?

amd64skater · Nov 12, 2008

NXE game install ?

am i going need to get another hdd or not for game installs right now free i have 11.2 gigs free and i know map packs take up a bit. does anyone know about how much space is required for a single game or are they all different sizes.

DanishDevil · Nov 12, 2008

Well a DVD doesn't hold more than about 5GB's, but unpacked onto your HDD could take a few more. If you have 11.2GB free, and you're planning on playing Halo 3 or COD4 (based on popularity and "map packs") then you should be okay with that much space left. I haven't seen a map back bigger than 700MB, or about 0.7GB. Let's say the game takes up 7GB, and you've got both COD4 map packs, which total to about 1.5GB, you've still got a few GB's to spare.

MilkyWay · Nov 12, 2008

its £59.99 for the xbox live 60gb starter pack, 3months live a headset and a 60gb drive

but

would it be better to trade in a 360 for a newer one and pony up the difference

just a theoretical question? it would all depend on the trade in price

DanishDevil · Nov 12, 2008

Well, with Xbox's popularity soaring right now because of the NXE, you could probably sell one on your local Craigslist and get a good amount of what you paid, then grab one on Black Friday, that is, if you can stand not having a box for a few weeks, because I doubt anyone's gonna buy one for a good amount a few days before Black Friday.

this right i just list my console and then wait?
i dont think id get as good a deal if i traded it to game or gamestation even geforce the other games shop would rip me off
