I got a 360 Premium from GameStop in Stones River Mall, lot number 0731. I bought Dead Rising with it, I'll eventually jump on Live and especially since a friggin headset was included! Now I can harass mofos vocally instead of with text!
"YOURE MOM"
"U SUCK"
"YOUR AN AZZ"
No spelling required!@#
Anyway, I was a bit worried when I found I wasn't getting DD5.1 from the HDMI; I thought I heard that the HDMI didn't carry it but wasn't immediately sure. I got the clever idea of hooking up the component AV cable and using the HDMI but the OEM cable was so bulky you couldn't plug the two in. Fortunately I had a multi-console cable and it had a thin 360 AV connector with the optical out on it so I was able to use HDMI for video and the optical for DD5.1, YESSSSSSSSS.
I've also noticed that it upscales DVDs when you use HDMI so that's kinda cool except I bought an upscaling DVD/VCD player a month ago. :|
NEWAYZ I figure I'll have to get serious and play the damn Forza game.
