Can You Beat My Xbox 360 Project Gotham 3 Lap Times?
I'm finally starting to get the hang of Project Gotham 3 on my Xbox360. Although, I haven't quite made 'Contender' I'm getting there.

Windows Live Messenger Beta - Save Your Paypal Money!
After using the Windows Live Messenger Beta for 24 hours I have to say that so far I haven’t been overwhelmed, and to be honest I can’t see what all the fuss is all about and why people are paying for invites on eBay.
There are two new features of note: “Windows Live Call” which allows [...]

Lack of Posts
Apologies for the lack of posts over the last week or so.

Xbox360 Media Center Extender Vs Modded Xbox
A few days ago I setup Windows XP Media Center Edition on a PC so that I could access my media on my Xbox360 using the in-built Media Center Extender.
I have to say that the overall experience so far hasn’t been overwhelming, but will hopefully pick up once I get my TVcard which will unlock [...]
Add Icons To Your iPod Menu
One of my few criticisms of my new 5G Video iPod is that the point size used in the menu displays looks so small and boring and doesn’t do the screen justice. Hopefully this iPod hack will improve this situation and I’m going to give it a go tonight. This hack will allow [...]

Last night the evening of fun that I planned on my new Xbox 360 didn’t quite go the way that I had hoped, because I had major problems getting my Xbox360 online, and the support offered by Microsoft was shockingly poor.
