IE on the 360 is pretty good, especially with the ChatPad. I'd pay money for a damn PC driver for that thing. It would make my HTPC perfect.

IE on the 360 is worthless to me without flash. The only reason I use a web browser is to stream video. There's one wrestling video service I use (Smart Mark Video) that works but it doesn't fill the whole screen (it's windowboxed with bright white borders). The Smartglass App on Android is really nice though!Quote:

Yeah the soundtrack sucks, custom soundtrack to the rescue.Quote:

I'm only using it so much lately because my PC crashed so my only alternatives are my phone or this so I just hooked up a wireless keyboard and started going on my Xbox for most of my forum/web browsing.
I didn't know a USB keyboard worked with the thing, will a mouse work too? A rudimentary browser that can play videos could come in handy once in a while.
Hmm, I actually haven't tried a mouse yet.Quote:

If you have an Android phone you can use Smartglass to navigate with the browser.
Every time I take on Joust in Rivals Horizon his car is cheesing all over the place. Nothing against him but I remember Forza fanboys mocking GT5/Prologue when you could do that. Strange oversight for this game.
Well, I never
Yeah, there is the old staple hit the curbs and keep speed issue and they didn't give you an acceleration penalty or anything. But I thought for the MOST part I was driving well.
It's not a Forza game though. You can drive through fences
