  2. Re:"extra pixels."? by NeMon'ess · · Score: 1 · on Bungie Explains Halo 3's Resolution

    As opposed to those fake 720p HDTVs?

    Microsoft acknowledged when the 360 was announced that they were designing games for 720p. It's not like anyone tried to pull the wool over your eyes.

    More importantly, designing games to run at 1080p 60fps means hardware power goes unused when rendering for 720p or 480p TVs. That's a waste that could have been spent on prettier graphics. Most 360 owners don't even have HDTVs with 1080 lines so it makes more sense for games to look their best at 720p. If Bungie had sacrificed visual quality then sure Halo 3 could be 1080p at 60fps. They thought it would be better if it looked better on most people's TVs.

    Outta curiosity, do you go after the PS3 with similar zeal? It's got a library of 61 games and only 24 of them are 1080p.

    JackAxe - a question isn't a "statement" and no, I'm not lying :) You are correct though that this is a clear mistake in my piece. I'll strike it and credit you :) Will Andy strike or amend any of the things wrong in his article? Funny that you pull out one question that's admittedly a mistake and bludgeon me for it. As for whether we own an iPod, here's a picture of my wife holding it: http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20061015/3852/ Nevermind the dozen other points I made, which is typical from plaftorm fanatics. Funny you think I'm a MS loyalist LOL, just search my blog for countless times I've taken them to the woodshed over the last 3+ years.

  4. Hmm, more than one side of the story here ... by TDavid · · Score: 1 · on Critical Review of the Zune

    Gone in six months? That must be snark and not a prediction. We own one Zune and are thinking of buying a second one by the end of the year. As an actual customer, I went through every one of the reviewer's negative points and showed the other side of the story here: http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20061126/3987/

  5. Re:Some comparison... by Jugalator · · Score: 0, Troll · on MythTV Compared with Windows Media Center

    With an as biased review as one that intentionally compares to an obsolete version of MCE, I think it's only fair to show the other side of the coin to give readers a chance to form their own opinion on the pros and cons: http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20041230/1293/
