Sad, but a sales rep brought our company lunch today... multiple sacks of Black tacos from Taco Bell. :rolleyes: However, they were quite tasty.

thanks guys for the help. so just to reiterate...

1. i can use standard tv for set up using component or composite hook ups.

2. I can connect XBOX 360 to open port on my modem and be connected to internet.

3. don't get 'Dead Rising' because won't be able to read text. are graphics not visible as well? are other games like this i should stay away from?

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

1. Yes

2. I said it "sounds like". I make no guarantees.

3. You can of course see the game. You just can't read your objectives to know what to do next. I know of no other games that are afflicted in the same way.

Banjo-Kazooie had a similar issue. They mentioned a patch, but I don't recall the latest info on that.

What the hell?! As if you didn't have enough of a reason to avoid that place like the (black) plague.

Well if you don't like it, you can go to the back.... I mean you can become President! :D

Not to get off subject....but ever since I switched over to NXE, I can not auto sign in anymore. It used to be on the settings blade......now......who knows......

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

I was using component, too. Still am, although I have an HDTV now. Too bad I only have two HDMI slots. The PS3 and DVR are hogging them :( :lol:

For the record, the text on Banjo Kazooie: N&B was fine for me as well.

3m is 3000, he said 384.

When i was on an older DSL plan i had 1.5 down and about 380k up. I could game on Live fine but i did have some lag and hosting games was right out. I'm now on 3.0 down and about 750k up and the lag has much improved. If i could pay an extra bit a month to get even faster i absolutely would.

I have my settings to auto sign-in as well although it doesn't always do so. I forget where the option is now on the NXE dashboard but it is there someplace -- I verified that it was still set properly.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

Do you mean composite cables? Component cables carry hi-def signal and wouldn't have a problem, composite would be the usual yellow for video and red and white for audio versus red, blue, and green for vidoe and red and white for audio.

I just found out where to do it last night too - pissed me off since Nov 18th. (I had it a day early)

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

It took me a bit of searching to find it as well, and then when I got my Jasper, I had to search all over again. The thing that kept me from finding it is that you can't set it to auto sign in unless you are already signed in. I assumed it would just be a list of profiles, where you pick the one that you want to auto sign in, but instead, it is an option in the profile options after you sign in.

It doesn't seem like good place to put that option. They should just have a list of profiles that you can choose from in My Xbox->Settings.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

That's what my problem was - the Jasper :)

Also - I know I mentioned it earlier - but any games you installed to the HD on a previous console needs to be reinstalled if you put it(the HD) on a new console (ie swapping to Jasper).

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

I'm in the process of doing this now. It's a pain in the rear, but I find that using the Marketplace feature online gives you the opportunity to make a big queue and then downloading becomes much easier. Still I wish there was a "Select All" feature on the download historty list instead of having to click one-by-one.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

Right, that too. But i was referring to installed games to the HD - like from the disc :)

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

Oh. :blush:

You know, the reason I installed some games onto the HD was to decrease the noise while playing the game (I never noticed much difference in load times). With the Jasper being so much quieter, I no longer feel the need to do that.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

Haven't opened my Jasper yet, but I thought most of the noise was from the disc drive, which hasn't been replaced... is the Jasper still that much quieter?

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

yeah, mine is very quiet compared to my other unit. I really only noticed it was loading from the disc instead of the drive because the launcher said "Launch from Disc" instead of launch from drive.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

I'd say it's still worth it just to keep drive usage at a minimum. That is, if you have the space.

Re: Official Xbox 360 Thread - The NXE is coming, the NXE is coming...
 

I figure I will once I start Fallout. Might do Left 4 Dead as well. I play Rock Band 2 a lot but figured it was unnecessary since so many of my songs are already off the HD.
