    Post your XBOX360 Setup

    You'll have to excuse the pictures, they're really poor. For some reason, it's incredibly difficult to take pictures of the plasma screen's image. First set of pictures all came out with like a black screen, couldn't see anything.
    Got my sister to take a few pics, it's her camera so she knows how to work with the lighting. These are a few that she took!


    The kit. From top to bottom, XBOX360, Sky+, Plasma Media Reciever, Pioneer 868 DVD Player, Pioneer Amp. Subwoofer to the side, part of Mordaunt Short Premier System.


    Closer look at 360, two wireless pads, media remote, headset and case for PGR3. Aerial at the back of 360 is the wireless network adapter, which connects to my PC upstairs and brothers PC in the study.


    Top down view of all the kit.


    Side view of the plasma screen! The screen is actually on, but cause I took the pic, it all came out virtually black? Don't know what I'm doing wrong. Screen is wall mounted, with a slight tilt.


    PGR3 Intro, again a poor picture by me, you can see the flash, doh!


    Another view of the precious hardware. ops:


    My RUF GT, I set the 50th fastest lap time in the baby. =D>


    My McLaren F1, I think I've only driven it twice yet. I just bought it cause the colours nice, looks cool parked next to my RUF GT.


    Gees this is one blurry picture, sorry! Shows my Enzo and 355 parked next to each other.


    Ford GT! The car I started with, has it's own corner in my garage, it's special. 8)


    My Lambo. Don't think I've driven it yet! But you have to have a Lambo right?


    My F50 GT, arguably the best car in the game. Has it's own spot in my garage, but, I don't like driving it! It's too powerful, I canae control it captin'!


    Arcades in my garage! Geometry Wars is awesome! I bought the full version of Geometry Wars Evolved today.


    Watching a live race on Gotham TV. Again sorry for the quality, the camera had trouble keeping up with motion. In HD in real life it's stunning.



    So, there we go, a few pics of my setup.

    I couldn't be happier with the console, it's superb and worth every penny.

    Unfortunately, good equipment is not a substitute for any gaming skills

    You are one lucky person to get an X360. I'm still waiting for mine after being told rubbish by Amazon. Have you had a go on a normal TV to see the difference between the graphics?

    It's a myth, it looks wicked on a normal tv - just better on a high def tv . Same thing goes for PS3/Revolution, otherwise there would be no concept to upgrading with normal TVs (unless you want next gen exclusive games for example)

    The difference between the graphics would be the display output resolution...

    I have played the Xbox360 on both my HDTV and my normal monitor. I gotta say there is a massive amount of difference. Without a HDTV it's like your playing a normal xbox.
