Bioshock - XBox 360 Mini Review

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

Picked up the anticipated Bioshock 360 game on Tuesday.  After playing the Bioshock demo from the 360 Marketplace, this game was a no brainer to get.  It’s not your typical first person shooter.  It combines elements of suvival horror and fantasy.  Bioshock starts off just like the demo does.  Basically you are on a plane which crashes into the ocean and are forced to take safety in a tower rising out of the ocean.

Philips Ambilight 2 47″ 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV (47PFL7432D)

Sunday, August 12th, 2007

Saturday August 11, 2007, I picked up a new Philips Ambilight 2 47″ 1080p LCD (47PFL7432D) display. I was previously using the Hitachi 42″ (42HDS69) Plasma Display for watching Blu-ray and HD DVD movies. It was finally time to step up in size and having a display which did 1080p natively.

So why did I buy the Philips Ambilight 2 (47PFL7432D) LCD? How about:

  • Native 1080p display
  • LCD for gaming
  • 5ms refresh rate
  • 1:1 pixel mapping
  • ambilight 2
  • 3 HDMI inputs
  • 47″ display
