got to admit though after about an hr or so you start to feel a little sick due to the game being so big

hopefully there wont be any issues with the sensor and the big screen
100inch?????

It's a projector yes? Cos there isn't any Plasma, LCD or Rear Proj on the market that big...........

Yes there are 100inch plasmas around
i just dont have the hundred grand that you need to get one

yes it is a projector and it cost me about $3500 for the projector and the screen
you would be suprised by how clear the picture is when using the component jacks (crystal clear), using video or s video or the hdtv port the quality drops a little (my wife cant notice but i do)

the picture shows me using the projector with my laptop using the hdtv jack (or whatever it is)(thus the quality of the picture drops even further due to my digital camera skills and this picture does not show a picture generated with the component jacks) to play a helicopter flight simulator so i can practice flying my helicopters so i save some money by not crashing the real ones (rc of course) ill post a pic of one

i also plug my laptop into it and using the wireless network play texas holdem poker on the big screen, which is lots of fun

er i aint got a picture of that
im at work atm

its just a standard amp with all the speakers 5.1
i have all the wiring in the roof and the rear speakers mounted on the walls with the wiring inside the walls so it all looks really smick
the screen is electric so it can be retracted with the flick of a switch

you can take the projector outside and project a massive picture on the wall
basically the further away from the wall you go the bigger the picture gets
and the less the resoloution gets as well, but hey its still cool
it has the digital tv hooked up to it as well as the dvd hard drive player (80gig) as well as the ps2 and the soon to be wii (xmas) after about a year or so when the ps3 comes out, when all the bugs are ironed out and maybe a few upgrades are done to it, ill swap out the ps2 for a 3
you can get better ones now (projector) for the money its almost 2 years old

be aware you have to change out the projectors globe after 3000hrs of runtime, mines at almost 2000 after almost 2 years
the globe cost $500

Hey, does anyone know if Australia is offering the Wii strap replacement? I went to nintendo.com.au to the Wii replacement page..but that's the same as the US one, and there's only US and Canada for the Country choices =/

Nintendo said they will replace them world wide, so just wait abit and the aus nintendo site will probably have something up. Anyway you dont need them replaced unless your an idiot and you swing like one.

oh no, it's just that I feel like it's better to be safe than sorry..and besides..the thicker ones may last longer (and if friends come over...they might get a little over the top..so just to be cautious)

Have you all considered blue? I know I have, and it's changed my life! Spicks and Specks Christmas special on soon!

According to the latest edition of Nintendo Power, Ubisoft's forthcoming Prince of Persia game for Wii will simply be a reworked version of last year's PoP: The Two Thrones, with the notable addition of Wii-mote mechanics.

Oh yay *rolls eyes*
