I bought a second hand Matsui tv about 8 years ago. Still works, still good pic quality - and I only paid £80 for it

Gears of War was fun.. Nothing in the manual about having too many input devices connected causes permanent 360 spinning screen and attaching it to a Windows *cough* live account was far from a walk in the park. Got it working though :)

When my new desktop set arrived (computer, mouse, keyboard, monitor) everything worked fine. but like 20 minutes after I plugged the mouse in the laser just did not light anymore^^ broken.

And most of the time the nice shiny pc games that i wanted to play failed because of not good gfx drivers at that time^^

I buyed the Dawn of War Everything package lately and 2 of the games ask for a CD if i want to play online, One has a serious Problem with some languages files (in any language it has some nice named Races like instead of orcs = No Range: Race200123123.
And i had to reverify my cache so i could play all races in every game, only one acutally works online (which is ok so because if you go online every of those is the same...)^^

Makes buying an xbox game and just lobbing it in the tray a pleasure sometimes.
if your xbox tray isnt a disk scratcher and your xbox is not one of the $1b faulty batch.
