Posted November 17, 2013 oh well then idk. sorry you had to spend another $60. He should have to spend that much usually you can get replacements for nothing or cheaper. Yeah, some. Mostly on Halo 3 though, and some on Reach. I did a couple of LAN-parties too (a friend of mine had access to a couple of movie theatres that were closed during some holidays). just thought id ask because I though reach was a letdown in matchmaking especially.

Posted November 17, 2013 just thought id ask because I though reach was a letdown in matchmaking especially. Ah, well I was never enough of a matchmaking connoisseur to really notice any major difference from Halo 3 to Reach (other than maps and guns and abilities). ODST wasn't bad at matchmaking, but that's because it just took the matchmaking from Halo 3, so that doesn't count Either way, I'm more in it for the single player part and the story. I will give ODST credit for storytelling though, they had an interesting way of telling several stories that all were connected somehow, even though it was kinda messy at times. But a Halo game should give you the feeling that you're the biggest baddest killer in town, and ODST didn't deliver that. Also, the graphical style of ODST didn't suit me at all. I actually started the campaign for a second play-through, but I couldn't bring myself to finish it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually started the campaign for a second play-through, but I couldn't bring myself to finish it I really think they should have done a proper matchmaking for ODST. I ODST clearly showed that you werent the master cheif or anyone close, just a normal human with some nicer armor. I though it was a nice departure from the the standard halo and something they could have pulled off as a offshoot with enough time and money. UPDATED An enthusiasts guide to video feat.

I know what yo umean I have a 6 tuner ceton card in my HTPC one of the extenders in a x360. I have other stand alone extenders also being the ceton echo. Microsoft did something stupid though, that being that the only WMC extenders compatible with win8 are X360 and X1. UPDATED An enthusiasts guide to video feat.

Posted November 18, 2013 i didnt like the in pc method due to limited to that pc/extenders as i have multiple pcs. and i didnt like the reviews. i looked at a couple ceton vs silicon dust and every one favored the hd homerunprime. all the ceton devices seemed to have driver issues in most of the reviews. the only issue i had with the home run prime was it took almost a week before it reconized the tuning adapter. i also didnt like the ceton pci card idea due the coax conector looked flimsy and looked like it would be a major ingress problem if the conector in the card bent or came loose. and it had to re astablish cable card every time u turned off pc.

Posted November 18, 2013 loved ps3, loving ps3. I love how all the good games come out (even if it's not exclusive) suddenly at the end of its lifecycle that looks and plays freaking incredible (Bioshock Infinite, TLoU, GTA V). Absolutely hated the PS3 Ratchet and Clank games tho. So I guess PS2 is still my favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 18, 2013 I will never forget how terrible Halo 3:ODST was.... Jesus that game sucked.... I loved that game so much. It felt very different from previous Halo game, which I didn't like initially, but in it's own right I thought it was a great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 18, 2013 I just watched both the videos and wow they were pretty funny. I remember some of those moments because back then i was a console gamer.

I have had none of said problems. Before having the 6 tuner PCI-E I had the 4 tuner USB which I never had problems with until the end but ceton gave me a good chunk of money off the new one. The only thing is about the USB one is I really dont know if USB 2.0 had enough bandwidth for 4 tuners and the new one has much better picture quality. UPDATED An enthusiasts guide to video feat.

Posted November 18, 2013 I'll never forget playing LittleBigPlanet 2 online, Burnout Paradise with Voltron, playing Skate 3, and leveling up in Uncharted 2's multiplayer. I'll never forget those times I had. I'm now going to sell my PS3, to finish my PC build. It's worth it. The thing is that I can't just go back and play those games again in a few years. The servers might not even be up on alot of those games in like five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
