I love this thing. I've got a question for you guys, what mode do you find better, 720p or 1080i? I don't see much of a difference between the two.

As for the games, I can't believe how real Fight Night and NBA 2K7 look, Burnout Revenge is great too, however, I am very dissapointed with Madden 07. You can't even edit players' attributes or jersey numbers? Teams only have Home or Away jerseys? You can't even change the camera angle? Madden has great graphics, but when you're that zoomed out of the action, it might-as-well be a Sega Genesis we're playing.

I was hoping to sell my Xbox, but looks like I'll be keeping it for awhile, just to be able to play NFL 2K5.

I believe that you can download more jerseys for Madden 07 if you hook your 360 up to the net with xbox live, so you might want to check on that.

Use whatever resolution is the closest to your TV's native resolution. My TV's native resolution is 1080p, so I use 1080i.

If you have a native resolution of 720p, even if your TV is capable of displaying in 1080i, you should use 720p.

I totally don't know what the means, but I want it.

3/5.

Any Jessica Simpson reference gets a minimum of 3/5.

07 is seriously exponentially better than 06. They are still working out the kinks and I think next year's will be more what we have expected from Xbox/PS2.
