Interesting POV

Admire your article/blog but this won't get approved here. Best contacting a Mod or Editor direct (& maybe other sites too) & see what you can do - It'll need to be better written technically as it's full of punctuation/grammatical errors.

Good luck. View

IRONINGMAN: Don't you know ?

There's a rather large contingent over from the States & all the coke, pepsi & donuts have run out. That's why they had to cancel. View

Apologies for the misleading title..

In the rush to get the story out I completely forgot to put UK in the title.

It does specifically state in the very first sentence it's London, but I do absolutely acknowledge it should have said UK in the title & apologise for the oversight. View

Please see point 18.1

Genuine error on my part in posting.

Sincere apologies for any misleading caused. View

I do apologise....

in my hurry to get the story out I forgot to add UK to the title.

Reporting it won't do any good (can't be changed after approval)

Best off, asking a mod or editor if they can change the title by adding UK.

Apologies once again. View

Slight confusion ?

One end of the cable I've used is the same as was shipped with original Xbox 360 & fits into the existing socket on the Xbox - it's the other end that's different - it's HDMI (HD & 5.1 surround sound ready) that will only plug into a HD ready TV with the HDMI port. ...so Analogue TV is no good. Getting an Elite won't help because you'll still need an HD ready TV to connect to in order to get the benefit. Best bet is to get a fu_ck-off 40" or above HD ready Plasma or LCD TV, get the cable for crystal clear resolution & sound then wait for the next Xbox 360 upgrade with the 60nm chips which'll be alot quiter & come with HDMI socket-socket for even better res & sound !

make sense ? View

look for cable with HDMI port on one end...provided you have HD ready TV

The cable I was using was the the one that came with the console. The new one has an HDMI port & fits into the HDMI port on the back of HD ready TV's (LCD/Plasma). It's made a huge difference to mine. Previously I was barely able to read the inventory text& in-game info & alerts - now it's still small but crystal clear. Also pixelisation has dissappeared & colours much richer with more texture greater detail.

Hope this helps. View

With regard to the 360 version

I just bought one of those VGA HD cables & it's improved the graphics 50 percent. It's like it's a different game ! Also ftorres is right - once you're past the slow & frustrating start it builds really well & there is alot to do & like. The world is MASSIVE & this will now keep me happy for at least a couple of months...about the time Mass Effect comes out I believe ! View

YOUR PICTURE IS READILY AVAILABLE FROM GOOGLE

Just type in 'Engaged' & there you guys are ! (But I suspect you know that, though)

I tried to change the pic when you contacted me but the story had already been approved & past the self-edit point. Please contact an Ed or Mod if you're serious about getting it removed.

Good luck. View

The Round Peg - Important

You are wasting so many peoples (& your own) time with your numerous & often petty reporting.

You need to consider your reports much more carefully. You make some good points sometimes but you also make mistakes, and your refusal to acknowledge them & your arrogant, condescending & 'superior' tone is pissing people off. You are also severely lacking when people appeal against your reporting with good points of their own. You could show some manners & good grace & accept other points of view occasionally.

And could you actually use the APPROVE button now & again ? People only have to look at your 'user score' to see a vast MASS OF RED REPORTS against virtually NO APPROVALS which is a very selfish attitude & NOT FAIR ON THE COMMUNITY who approve your newsposts but receive next to nothing in return.
