Hi Thanks for looking at my first post!
I just got my xbox a couple days ago and I love it. I got it off ebay new and got 5 games: Rallysport Challenge, Amped, Aggressive Inline, Mat hoffman 2 and Unreal Championship. I hope to get Halo and beat that before Halo 2, I also want RTCW and maybe Mechassualt.
BTW- on a sidenote: MA looks exactly like a game Nvidia was demoing for Geforce FX awhile back. Exactly. Interesting.
I have a couple of questions.
1. I've ordered a hdtv (Sony KP57wv700 series 57") , a 5.1 surround speaker system (full sized everything) , a receiver, prog scan DVD player. I was wondering what the deal is with the HD AV pack. I need a component video cable right, but I also want 5.1 sound. If I buy the microsoft cable, do I just get the component video cables and some sort of a signal splitter thing? Or do I get a 5.1 sound cable too? I heard you need to buy it seperate. Does anyone have the microsoft hd av pack, and can you tell me what you got in it and how its setup in your environment?
2. Xbox Live. Took a chance and ordered it off Ebay, apparently only the speakerphone is a little busted. What do you get in the box when you buy it retail, so I can compare it to what I get in the mail soon? Link:

I hope to see some people online! My tag will be (hopefully) MrOther.
3. Bought a controller converter for psx 1/2 => xbox on ebay. Does anyone own one of these things? I haven't received it yet, just thought I might ask if anyone has experience with one of them.
Anyways, see everyone on the forums and thank you for all responses!
