    HDTV

    I have Cablevision and I don't have to pay extra for HD. I only have to pay the $5.00 extra for the box. I have FSNNY and MSG in HD and I barely see anything in HD. Only about 1/3 of the Knick games are in HD and a 1/3 of the Ranger games are in HD. It's bullshit. And MyNetwork is in HD and the only shows they have in HD are the stupid soap operas they have on everynight. And INHD/INHD2 both blow with nothing ever good on them. Atleast HDNet has good movies. They should use some of that bandwith for ESPN2HD. I'd LOVE to have DiscoveryHD and NFL Network HD, but we don't even have NFL Network so I doubt we'll get it in HD anytime soon. Whatever, since it is free, beggers can't be choosers. Directv is at least nice enough to have all of those..sort of. NFL Network is only in HD when theres actually something in HD on. Discovery HD is like watching Discovery Channel reruns from the past 3 or 4 years, and yet still..NO FUCKING MYTHBUSTERS IN HD! Bunch of Retards. ESPN2 is nice in HD..youd be surprised to know that they have DRAG RACING IN HD of all things. I'm glad you are happy with HD Lite. That argument over to AVS is annoying. HD Lite looks miles better than directvs SD programming (which is horrid). And it will get better starting next year when they can add new sats and swtich to MPEG4 completely. Problem is, my HD Tivo will be useless...wah! Im glad there are at least a few people who dont understand the need to have a HD TV hooked up to non-hd programming AND stretching it to fill the screen. You can almost immediately tell if its stretched or HD because everything looks bloated if its stretched. I cant stand that, and Id rather lose 1/5 (approx) of the screen to black bars than to have to deal with that bloating effect. Depends on your TV and the size. Westinghouse for example has a very good fill mode. Not zoom, but fill that doesn't result in everyone looking like a watermelon.
  2. $650!!?! OMG!! That's like...a cheap PC. Or half the price of one of those pieces of crap iMacs Apple makes. People spend a hell of a lot of money on pricier PCs to game on, not counting upgrades. And the price has been beaten to death. Why are we still talking about it? And if you paid for a high-end HD TV...you know, the only type of TV that Blu-Ray movies are going to look any different than DVDs on...then the price is hardly that ridiculous. I "somewhat" agree with the PC thing but very few go out and just buy a PC specifically for gaming. Most PC gamers upgrade components one or two at a time for even the most hardware intensive games so that PC that you've had for 7-8 years is still more cost effective over time.
  3. Is there really a point to branding your ONE site? No one is going to see this logo anywhere but here. Well, I don't see it since I AdBlock everything on this site.

    College Hockey isn't popular enough maybe? Besides the midwest/eastcoast that get snow.

    Hence why I said "most of their stuff".

    TNT's HD is just a poorly done upconvert on most of their stuff besides the NBA.

    What's worse than Marvin really trying, is that he doesn't understand as much as he thinks he does.

    What the fuck is this BALLIN' movement? Are they rebelling against David Stern's movement to make the NBA more marketable to white people? God bless that Jew btw.
  12. Wrong. It should be your plan A.
  13. Ugh. I hated the 3 on 1 matches with a DQ that you couldn't possibly beat. I'd just DQ myself since I knew there was a beat down coming at the end of the match anyways.
  14. Heckle them.
  15. I think Seattle is a bit better than 20 as they have been very competitive/close in all the games they lost. Like a 18/19 or so.

    I don't even know who the fuck this is.
  17. I swear both of these companies are run retarded monkeys.
  18. That's right. It's about tea.
  19. He kicked someone in the nuts and then did a Spinaroonie?

    NFL Week 12

    Well, Eli should lay down infront of the bus on his own.
  21. If the computer is on and the monitor is and you've check to make sure the cable from the computer to the monitor is connected securely, then it's probably dead. And there isn't much you can do since it's dangerous to open a monitor up.

    In what percentage of threads you post in will this "hubby" be referenced?

    Who the fuck is Dipset? And why would they have such a gay name?
  24. I downloaded the demo on XBL and while it's relatively nice graphics wise, you don't do shit in the game besides fly around a bit, punch/laser vision/freeze/throw something or blow out fires. Weeee.
