My xbox lagged playing a firefight on Halo 3: ODST. Time to move on to the superior system and forget about halo.

i don't run it on my 360, but do you save the movies to your hard drive or ???

i would think , since the PS3 is wireless capable, the HD movies would be choppy or have degredaded pics. unless you saved it to your H/D and watched it.

hve had my 360 at least 3-4yrs, Halo edition, no probs. used to play ALOT every weekend 5-6hrs at a time.

The netlix movies stream, no way to download them. Surprisingly HD looks very good on an Xbox or Tivo and I'm sure will look just as good on a PS3, you just need a decent internet connection. A strong wifi signal is usually as fast as any available internet download speeds, but I'd recommend going wired as a microwave running in the kitchen can slow down or kill a wifi signal.

I went with the Special Edition Modern Warfare 2 XBox Elite.....for $399 you get an extra controller($50), the new MW 2 game ($60) and more gigs with the memory....250GB.

Here's the set up...

off of the disc. My roommate and I were playing a local split screen firefight and shit was lagging like mad in a few places.

Right now I am playing Assassin's Creed II on PS3. Fucking incredible game.

Curious about this one - is it as repetitive as the first one?

I havent played the new one but I hear the new one is btter then the first, much more interesting story and less repetitive.

It's not nearly as repetitive. I couldn't ever tell exactly how far through the game I was like you could do so easily in the first. Free-running is better, you can swim (somewhat cool), flying machine is gay.

I give this game a 10/10. Tons of fun. Never gets boring (i am watching two of my roommates play through at the same time as I play through so i watch the same parts over and its still interesting.)

However, I would just rent it for a week or two and beat it instead of buying it. These aren't games with multiplayer and you probably wont play through it more than a couple of times.
