No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

you two are cracking me up! Sad to say, most of the time, even on easy level, "I will not survive". Eh. Like Amych says, I really get my gaming-per-dollar, and I have fun too, and that is what counts.

move out and draw fire

Ooo, the song list looks good. "Tangled Up in Blue" will be a bitch to sing. And I see they'd added Jethro Tull...will there be a flute controller?

The new controllers look pretty sweet also.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I stayed up till (just gone) 4am completing Call of Duty 4 recently on the Nerdbox. I loved it. Polter-Cow, I occasionally play it online - my Nerdbox Live username is HarshFire. (A name I did not choose).

I'll ask here and not tech, as I think this group will know. On the back of the xbox360, next to the Ethernet port. What is that a connection for? Is it HDMI (he asks as he awaits the arrival of his 1st HDTV).

Does it say "HDMI" next to it?

nope, it says nothing, hence me asking.

Does it have a big connector and a small one, like in the picture I linked to, or just the big one?

actually, neither. Looking again, it might be a USB Connection. It's right over the ethernet jack, same width.

You can't tell the difference between a USB port and an HDMI port?

I do not believe you are actually omnis_audis. Who are you and what have you done with my friend?
