also i'm in the fall xbl dashboard beta and it's pretty cool

I'm in it as well. It's nice, but I'm tired of having to update it every single time I get on.
did the beta include a browser? 

yes, a decent version if IE

Serious question (it's sad that I have to write that, but it's my own damn fault): is xbox 360 better than PS3?  I've only ever had/played a PS3.  Just curious if I should explore the xbox 360.  Any clear benies to owning one?

Pros:
1. If you like Gears of War and/or Halo you have to buy a 360 to play those
2. If you have alot of friends you want to play with and they all have 360s, then you have to have a 360

Cons:
1. Online play has a monthly fee (or yearly depending on how you pay it)
2. Graphics aren't as good
3. No Blu-Ray


could list others I guess, not worth the effort thou
Both have Netflix but only xbox has HBOgo and Amazon OnDemand.  PS3 only has a NFL Sunday ticket package for like $200.  It is about $50~60 a year for the xbox to acess Netflix, HBOgo and Amazon.

IMO, the HBOgo is the most valuable, all you need is a HBO subscribers account info and you have all the HBO movies for that month and all episodes of all HBO original shows (The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones, etc)

i bought my 360 annual pass for $30 online (i think it was amazon)

Are you still playing MW3? We should play together some time. I'm being a total dick and working on getting my SMAW kills.

i've never had to update since applying the beta patch.

yes i still play mw3 all of the time, jamar does too.  i smaw my ass off.  pclams is my gamertag.

i'll can go out and launch a game but it says i don't have the appropriate video plug in (M-Player).  i'll check the beta forums and see what people say about it.

i guess it doesn't have flash b/c adobe doesn't make a flash version for consoles.  not sure if that makes sense, just read it.

Pretty sure we're already friends. mine is farticusprime.

When did you get into the beta? I got it when it very first opened up. Tons of updates. Never doing an early beta again.

No. The first one is boring as crap. The second is one is better, but still kind of boring.

Third one looks good, i'll probably play it.

I pre-ordered Halo4 at gamestop yesterday. Really hope that it doesn't suck as bad as Reach. I'll be super duper disapointed.

my ten year old did the same thing with his birthday money.

I don't think he liked Reach either.

I am in no way comparing you to a ten year old boy.
