School in the morning. Summers over. Birthday is on Tuesday though.

Also anyone have a link to that PC game that reformats your HD or ducks it up if you lose?

Thanks buddy. When I was in grad school, all my mba pals wanted to be a pharm rep. It's a great gig that I would happily take, but I'd really like to get back into e-commerce.


Frown: Somehow I bought fat free cream cheese today. Yuck.

Smile: The weather is incredible. Mid-70's with a breeze. Tomorrow should e equally as nice.

:shock: Finally got cables for my ps3 (component) and 360 (hdmi) and have them off of composite. Blown away at the graphics.

Also - played my first 2K game in 9 years, NBA2K11, last one i'd played was NFL2K2 - again, blown away. Everything I thought I knew about gaming just changed.

So that's why you said you couldn't see a difference between wii and ps3 graphics...

School started for me last week. I am not a fan of mornings, I usually wake up for a bit about 30 minutes before my classes start then try to fight to keep my eyes open (I lose) and end up being 30 minutes late. Luckily my first teacher hasn't been marking me late. I'm hoping I won't be late anymore. Hopefully I start getting more sleep and studying more.

I don't know the name of the game you are talking about but is it the shmup one where every enemy is a file from your computer?

Also happy early birthday lil dude!!!

Apparently. I've never really paid much attention to cables - I had no idea. Wow. :shock:

The component cables on the Gamecube make a huge difference too.

If you have any tips, please share. I want to love this game so much, but I'm terrible at it. Every time I try to dunk, I end up missing a pull up jumper. I telegraph every pass. Wide open threes with Paxson? Miss all of 'em. Can't, get Grant to play in the paint, can't get BJ to make a steal.

Hopefully I can land a job soon.

I've lost track of how many you've talked about Luke, lol.

No wonder you've been gaga about cabs. Those are straight RGB or equivalent so would have looked miles better than everything else over composite. Unless of course you're pulling our legs. :P
