good show
Wow! First comment. Great show -- what I've heard so far. But then, isn't it always!
Damn, I have work in a couple minutes so I'll have to listen to this tomorrow.
who cares about VISTA?
Is ms trying to take over all 360 owners to vista later?
I can't wait to own vista, but first I will need more ram.I have 512mb.Keep up with the great Blogcasts.
OK, downloading right now.
My needs for the 360:
1) We need a browser for the 360
2) Canada needs video marketplace to rent movies
3) How about a video to demonstrate Vista on the marketplace. Perfect advertising tool there for MS.
Question. Why even play Pimp My Ride?
Down loaded I will listen to it in school tomorow when I am suposed to be learning !
Major, I listen for Xbox related interviews. I don't like the Games for Windows interviews.
thanx major. go colts!
Yay Colts! etc.
Gosh darn it was cold? Today's high was about -9 here!
Cool! I'm digging the GFW stuff, Major. I hope you continue to incorporate that into your blogcast.
Great show Major! I loved the Games for Windows interviews...especially since I recently got a great new PC (sadly don't have a DirectX 10 card yet...)
Xbox 360 + Games for Windows = Gaming Bliss!
Now I just wish my Xbox 360 had not died two weeks ago lol.
seriously, I Know Gates wants you to pimp the hell out of Vista but come on, you are here for Xbox...nothing more
Cant wait to listen major. BTW, you're playing pimp my ride?!? Did you bet on the bears? ;-)
Sweetness! Can't wait!
The keyboard shortcut to force the flip 3d to "stick" is Ctrl+Window+Tab. :)
Gah! Freakin' Grossman!! Anyway Vista is running pretty well for me. I picked up the OEM of Vista Home Premium and built a new PC, and it installed in about 15 minutes! Everything is working fine so far and all my games work pretty. Nvidia needs to get on the ball though and get their drivers squared away. Beta drivers suck almost as much as the Bears did tonight. Studpid Grossman :/
Vista is going to be great, I just need to buy a new computer for it to run properly.
I'll give this one a miss. I'm already using Vista right now, but I bought the 360 for games and not the other way around.
Sweet, a nice long one. :P
Great show.
hay you ask but 10 heck no im not typing that much ;).
1.developer's or and seller in MP is able to make an add-on with extra Achievement points but must be preferred free but it has to be over 1gig or and under 400 MP points per month minimum in MP to allow players at least 1hr of game play per 100 Achievement points..
2.the exception of rule one for xboxlive gold members, developer's may not make Achievement points in multiplayer but only if it involve single play or co-op but co-op must be able to be played via split screen..
3.All regular disc-based games MUST have 1,000 Gamerscore in the base game.
“yah i know but thats only thing that was good in the original list ;)”
Yes Great show
Hey Larry here is the software that can be used to stream music, pictures, and videos from a mac to a 360.
