I'm possibly planning to get a few more upgrades for my Revo, however, something is coming upon me whether or not I should sell my Revo and buy another vehicle. Specifically the RC8, still not sure because I'm gonna lose big time on my Revo. Nothing is really set in stone yet. [&:]

man all you video game nerds. I dont own any type of game system(used to have a ps2, and all i played was gt4)I gave up gaming for rc. they are similar, but with rc you can see, hear and feel the thing moving, its not just a screen with speekers.

for christmas I want some 3s lipos, and some dirtbike riding pants.

I ordered myself a Hudy 6-piece metric socket driver set - it's the one thing i was missing from my toolbox so i treated myself. I would have got the Thunder Tiger set (to match my TT flatheads, phillips & hex heads) but they're impossible to find.

owning the PS3 says different for me, meh my opinion differs from yours, gotta keep in mind in games support though that the 360 has 9 moths or so on the ps3 for games development, and all the big titles are staying on (gran turismo 5 alone is a good enough reason to bu a PS3 in my opinions, resident evil 5, GTA4) i admit the online content isn't as good as the 360, but as a whole system i'm happy with it, and i've spent probably 300 hours at one of my mates places playing his 360 since it came out lol.

my goals have changed i will be getting a 360 for chrissy (just sold one of the PS3's (no idea why dad got two in the first place..)) and theres a TV free to put it on now so i think it's a goer, it hink i'll get it just after though, around chrissy everything go's up, afterwards it all go's back down

if u do a little research the graffix gpu in the first xbox is actuall equal to the one in the ps3 the 360 blows it out of the water and the wii is on top for graffix gpu but the wii games out to date are still not able to ultize the gpu to its full capaticy


but on to the real topic here ive already gotten my rc cars their christmas present a big brother
now all my elect st's have someone to look up to my new revo

and if i can sell another computer soon ill also be getting a mamba max for one of my vintage rc10's

the graphics on my TV are exactly the same (my TV being a 42 inch 1020P LCD), and the graphics of my first gen X box are very similar to my PS2, so dunno where you get that from, numbers mean one thing but the first gen x box doesn't stand anywhere near the PS3, and the 360 doesn't have any gains on it, the ONLY difference in terms of performance i've seen between the 360 and PS3 are the game, same game on each different system provides exactly the same game play.

anyways i just bought myself an electric heli for chrissy, should be a nice challenge.

i build pc's and know quite a bit about gpu quality look on the gpu specs on various sites of the systems and u can see that the wii has the best gpu then 360 then ps3
just because te games look the same does not mean that the systems are equal as newer game coding evolves u will see that some games will only be able to be played on certian systems due to the fact that the gpu can not encode the graffix at fast enoug rates to obtain qualit fps(frames per second)

the ps3's gpu is the same gpu as the 1st gen xbox but with double the pixle pipe line
but agian this is way off topic for this site and probaly would be best to be moved over to pcpitstops forums to discuss the way gpus work and the diffrent encoding types

You mean 1080p?

Also the Xbox and PS2 are not HD output...so you are watching/playing them at 480p at best.

Forza 2 alone blew any Gran Turismo so far out, good luck PS3 fans, you have a very good game to beat with solid online play. Sadly the PS3 and GT5 will need a lot of fans and some sort of online to catch on as well as Forza 2 has. Remember no GT past 3 was ever enev remotely as popular as Forza 1 let alone 2.

gran turismo 1, 3 and 4 are all in the top selling console games of all time, forza isn't lol. and gran turismo 4 rendered in 1080i, first and only 6th gen console game to do so, comparing gran turismo HD (the "demo" to gran turismo5 if you will) to forza 2, the 360 has some competition, anyway theres no point getting into an argument about it, you just have to accept that my opinions different to your's, i like the PS3 more, and you like the 360 more, thats all there is to it.

oh and HALO 3 doesn't even render in true HD, it runs at 1152*640 instead of 1280*720 HD because the frame rate suffered if it was rendered in true HD, Microsoft have already run into the limits of the 360.

anyhoo, we should probably discus what we're doing with out RC's over chrissy now..
