If your TV supports it, yes you can. Go to the xbox dashboard and then settings, continue to video setitngs.

Othernews, I restarted after losign my 86% save, I'm now at 62%. All copmacts unlocked, all muscles unlocked, all but 3 coupes unlocked. I aven't unlocked the sports/super series yet, but I do ahve to cars for each in my garage.

I also have done all the crash's on gold, so I have that special car, and I've also got the firetruck.

Not bad for 7 hours.

> EA had better not screw up with Timesplitters FP and Battlefield...

Start planning what tantrum you're gonna throw mate, I wouldn't put too much hope on them. Played that Timesplitters recently, it was ok, but not anything I'd consider as competition against a lot of other FPS games - both current and coming soon.

As for Battlefield, I saw the footage of it on the E3 disc and I'm confident my old BBC Micro could run it. Of course its an old game now, but you know, some of us have the cheek to expect some form of update rather than a quick cash in.
Its like Star Wars Battlefront, only without the Star Wars stuff, effort and ironically, the atmosphere of actually being on a battlefield.

The footage showed a few players running around a basic and boring looking ghost town of a city. Of course, you'd usually back up the developer and be like "well, its only 30% complete", but then lets face it, with EA, 30% might as well be 100%.
Maybe they've put most of the games budget into putting in Brittany Spears' songs. Wonder if they'll add in that "cool" EA DJ too....

Sorry to cain the games you're looking forward to, but EA just get on my nerves more and more as time goes on and getting bum raped by Burnout 3 at the moment isn't helping my mood.

I might be on later as well. If I am, I might switch to 60 Hz and give you a game. What I was wondering though, is can you switch to 50 Hz? I know you wouldn't actually want to, I just wondered if you can.

Yeah, most likely.

I play really late anyway. I sometimes don't start laying until 1 in a morning at weekend and what not. Will be on tonight though to give it a shot.

Online's excellent, as long as you choose the right time to play. I had no troubles playing on Frday night after about 12:30am, once the initial excitement of the game coming out has died down I think the servers should work a lot better.

Criterion = masters

EA = idiots who have f**ked up what should be and is, to an extent, a fantastic online game.
