Re: The Never Ending Thread

I'm afraid Madden on 360 is gonna own the PS3 version. Mostly due to the fact 360 is 60fps and PS3 is only 30fps. (Obviously I own a PS3). I mean NCAA Football 08 looked good on PS3. Dunno how it fared against 360's version though. Anyone who played on PS3 + Xbox360 feel free to tell me the difference if there is one.

Think the fps will make much of a difference graphics/gameplay wise?

I thought they both were going to be at 60fps.

I got a 1080i tv. Its only 19 inches and i'll be using it as a secondary monitor to my laptop and a small desk TV at college. I am pretty sure 720 and 1080 look the same on such a small tv so i'll be playing on 720p.

I am going to be spending quite a bit of time at bestbuy tomorrow. The xbox 360 elite fell 30 dollars and i just bought less than a month ago so hopefully i can get that money back. Then my camara broke so i'll be getting a samsung NV 10 or NV 11. I need to look at them first. They're on sale right now. THen back there at midnight for MADDEN!!!1 I am getting all happy watching the videos. I can't wait.

Off-chance but anyone have the NV 10 or 11 that might give a review. THere are tons online but i trust warpathers first. Any other good 8+ MP camaras that any of you may suggest?

Well I can't help you in the camera department. I've only had 1 digital camera so far and I sorta broke it. Good luck with the camera though.

Why not go to best buy late like around 9-10pm then that way you don't have to make multiple trips?

well, i bought my xbox at like 5 on the day i bought it. That was exactly 30 days ago. Now, i don't want any problems so i'll go and do it before 5. I HIGHLY doubt they'll say, "you got it 30 days and 3 hours ago" but i'll be safe. I am pretty sure they'll do a price match within 30 days but if they don't, that'll suck.

Re: The Never Ending Thread

Good news Angry.
I have been calling Kim from the Bank, and this last time I called (left a message) telling her what I applied for and if she has had a chance to review my resume. If she had and thought I was well qualified, I would be in the area at the end of this week, give me a call and I will interview with her. If not, no hard feelings, and it was nice talking to her in the past.
Sure enough, she called back and I have an interview with her at 8am on Thursday. (the job fair is from 1-5pm on Thursday)
To make matters even better. A woman named Susan called for my wife from the same bank...that job I told you about. They have a phone interview on Friday.

WOO HOO. Hopefully this a sign of good things to come.

Re: The Never Ending Thread

Oh and only the 360 is 60fps. I just watched a video at 1up.com showing a side by side comparison of the PS3 and the 360. There's not a HUGE difference between the 2 but it is noticeable.

Really? That sucks a little bit. I was under the impression they both were going to be at 60 frames for madden but only xbox at 60 fps for NCAA. Then i thought they changed it so that even NCAA was at 30fps. But i don't keep up with everything so i'll take your word for it.

I have played both and only if you keep thinking about it it is a big difference both are great games.

Re: The Never Ending Thread

They did a special on the construction of Palm Island on the Discovery channel a few months back, it was very good.
Here is a map of the area...the actually made it look like a palm tree in the Arabian Gulf.
