    Scrapper do you have your 360 hooked up to your monitor or a TV out of shot?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭R0ot


    Monitor, tooke alot of freaking doing too! The amount of cables i have gone through is unreal, offshot though i have a server machine, running as of 2 weeks ago Windows Media Centre, so i can stream video through the 360. :D

    horrible gaming device with a lack of games. also a horrible phone (though the second-gen n-gage fixed the phone issues but for some reason took away mp3 capabilities afaik).

    also, nokia aint supporting it anymore. because it sold in the region of 12 devices worldwide :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw


    haha i remember nearly all my friends had one at one stage because they were so cheap like €50

    I have connected the PC in the past. I had to borrow the cable off the brother It did look well. :) Mainly used for the DVD and consoles. Takes advantage of the 360 by supporting high-def.:)

    We have three gaming PCs. The black one shown in the pic is one. The other two are in the kids' room. The white box is a file server we use to store cd images and DVD images and then use daemon as a virtual DVD rom on the clients. THis saves on Discs been damaged. The PC also does as a proxy/NAT server using Lansuite, content filtering for the kids and finally as a backup for all our files. The WIFI is used for Nintendo DS and laptop. The PC Lan is wired as it provides the best speed for the virtual DVDs.

    Thread title: "Whats your gaming Station look like?"
    Nothing in this thread is BF2 related. Just an FYI.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    However this is the Battlefield forum and according to the charter as stated things should revolve around at least a Battlefield theme.


    :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 272 ✭✭December Son


    *hums the battlefield theme* :)

    I seen one of these in action a while back and I have to say I was green with envy... Something I will defo be looking into...
    Whats the lifetime on that projector?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    For projector and related home entertainment query's and such I would direct you to the "Home Entertainment" forum.

    Different projectors will quote different lifespans. My Panasonisc300 has two modes which affect life span of the bulb.

    High Intensity is about 2500 hrs
    Low Intensity is double that at 5000 hrs

    I use the latter and picture quality is excellent. I have tried the High Intensity mode and yes the picture is better but then again the fan noise increases to match the increase in power. This can be a distraction during quite scenes.

    To replace the bulb is around €250.

    PS... I know this thread is in the Battlefield section but the man asked a question and he is getting an answer.:)
