Hurry people they're still available as I speak. I would link the site but that would be seen as advertising......er......I suppose this is advertising anyway    ???  sorry mods but these things are like rockin horse :censored:.

'Game' get them in virtually everyday, they only get 2/3 but sell them within a couple of hours, their delivery hours are between 10-11 every morning  :;):

I just got a VGA cable for my 360 so I can play it on my PC monitor, because the TV only runs at 1024x768 where the monitor runs higher and a lot smoother. Believe me the cable is worth it.  :cool:

Will I be ok with a scart lead to my lcd tv or should I go for one of those babies?

I'd get one of these mate cos it will run at a higher resolution, thus sharper and smoother picture.

bugger ! I have no vga plug socket in the back of my lcd tv. I'll have to connect to my laptop to check out whether or not the improvement is enough to warrant me buying a suitable telly. Ordered the vga cable from play.com, not in stock yet though.

Who has an Xbox 360? I've had mine for nearly 4 weeks now and can't stop playing PGR3, I have also got COD2 and PDZ, I'm gonna sell PDZ cos I don't like it as much as I used to.

800:1 would be better:


Contrast ratio: This term refers to the difference in light intensity between the brightest white and the darkest black that an LCD can produce. Look for a contrast ratio of 400:1 or better--with anything lower, colors may wash out when you turn up the brightness and may disappear when you turn it down. However, higher is only better up to a point. Contrast ratios over 600:1 are unlikely to provide any advantage, and monitor vendors are likely using "fuzzy math" to calculate those values, anyway.

I bought Dead or Alive 4 yesterday, just thought I'd give a quick review:

I haven't been into fighting games since the Street Fighter days and never even got into Tekken as I didn't like them, I watched the review of DOA4 on Gamepot.com the other day and thought it looked very good, I got it form Currys for £44.99 which wasn't that bad and gave it a hammering last night, I have to say it's a very good game and plays very smooth, the graphics are very impressive and the online play is fun.

I'd agree with gamespots 8.8/10 on this and would recommend a purchase :cool:

After being skint for a while (had to splash out €800 on repairs for my car) I've bought a few new games recently.

My girlfriend got me Age of Empires 3, which is basically the same game as its predecessors, but with fancier graphics.

I also got the Movies, not really my sort of thing usually, but the ability to shoot your own movie (within limits of course) is interesting.

Also ordered Guild Wars and Civilisation 4 from play.com.
