Thanks, I'm tempted to look for a good deal on some to see how it changes things. I have a feeling I'll end up just waiting for the next system after tomorrow's reveal...

Dumb question, but did it enhance the pointer accuracy? The pointer was accurate when I had an old 32" tube TV, but after I upgraded to a 32" LCD HDTV the pointer didn't match up to where the remote was pointing. It made 1st- and 3rd-person shooter games less fun...

Pointer accuracy has nothing to do with the TV, it's all in the positioning of the sensor bar.

Should have thought of that. All fixed now!

Not even! You did pretty well actually. I realized last night how much I hate the dumb thunder cloud item. It always seems to come up at the most inconvenient times.

That's the truth, I think I got it five or six times when I was a considerable distance behind you!

I'm off the next two days, so I will be looking for more matches a little more frequently.

I've been fighting off a cold for the past few days, so the last time we raced my eyes were burning! I'll see if I can muster up some strength tomorrow night.

true, but it does make the colors more vibrant, I noticed a HUGE difference on how games looked from switching to a old 4x3 tube TV to my 32" LCD TV. now if you are going from composite (yellow) to component on the same TV you may not notice a difference. I had my old xbox hooked up via composite and scored a set of OEM comp cables for it for cheap and hooked up the xbox via them, did not notice that much of a difference but on the Wii, I did, but results may vary .
