forums xbox scene central In Detail

Many people include all of their tasks in a short paragraph, which doesn't impress many prospective employers. If you are producing a professional resume, such as one for an lawyer, you will want to take a look at a resume writing example that pertains to your type of skills so you can see what is important to include in your own resume. Use classic formats and traditional fonts to play it safe. No matter what type of profession you are seeking, there is a resume writing example that can assist you in creating your own CV. You will want to make sure that you include all of the data that you need in your resume and do not shortchange yourself when it Comes to speaking of your attainments, knowledge and skills. Those with post graduate degrees do not have to put down their high school information. There are many different resume software programs designed for just this purpose.When it comes to education, many people put down too little or too much. Use this as a tip as this is not necessary at all and looked at unprofessional. Employing colored paper, fancy fonts and pics may look really nice, but might seem overwhelming for an employer and they may consider you amateurish.Still another resume tip is to make sure that you do not understate your past experience - Including all of the tasks that you performed at your old job, or know how to do, that concern to the position which you are seeking. Professional CVs differ from ordinary resumes and usually are a bit longer than the average resume. You don't need to go back to the beginning of your life with your resume, only to those points where your career began. Your undergraduate university or college should come second along with degrees and accomplishments. This is totally unneeded. Many people who have a post graduate degree to not feel that it is necessary to put down high school information on their resume.If you took some time off for a family or other reason, and prior to that time you had worked in an area where the skills you learned can be used for the job you are now applying, you can include this information at the end of your resume as additional information. NEVER put down how much you are making at your current job or how much money you expect to pull in at the new job. You will most likely be asked why you left your prior employment during your interview.If you are unsure about how to prepare your Resume (CV-curriculum vitae),

Xbox360Forum.com

What are your thoughts about adding Xbox360Forum.com to the external links? I am a member of the community and it has grown to over 4,000 members. We have been around for almost a year and it's a great place to discuss the Xbox 360 and ask questions.

So I'm submitting the Forum for peer review in accordance with the Wikipedia:External links policy. 66.98.152.31 01:53, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

• Oppose - It's not notable, adds nothing unique to the article, and fan forums are treasure troves of unverified junk information and speculation. Seraphim 06:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Re: Procedural Synthesis

Shouldn't the sub-section 'procedural synthesis' be removed? The paragraph reads like an advertorial for MicroSoft XBox360 - any computer can do this and the technique is neither new nor exclusive to this console. VRken 21:26, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Game Prices

The article states that games like PDZ and PGR3 will 49.99$. I am fairly certain this is false because i preordered PDZ and was told it was going to be 59.99$ not to mention that all game sites uote the games as being 59.99$. I will look more into and make the changes.

System Bandwidth

The 360's GPU is a custom 512MB graphics card with 48-way pipelines,and 525Mhz clockspeed made by Microsoft&ATi. System's CPU runs at 512MB/s GDDR3 Ram (700Mhz). Total system memory bandwidth is 278GB/s a/sec. with 21.6 frontside bus,and 32GB/s backside bus, 10.8GB/s southbridge memory up&downstream. Total TFLOPS is 115.2TFLOPS. Which makes the graphics and computer much powerful than any high end PC to date, and the 360 is exactly what people want to see in graphics,memory,CPU's,entertainment,online,etc. seven years from now. It has the exact mathmematics of a supercomputer easily. With real-time graphics that look 3x better than ps3's CGI, what more could you ask for from this multi-media machine.

GPU and DirectX support

As I recall, the X360 XDK is using a customized DirectX API, thus comparison with DirectX version seems pointless. And that DirectX 10 would be renamed as WFG when Vista is out, I believe. Any comments? 71.109.0.182 23:09, 29 January 2006 (UTC)71.109.0.182

Graphics

i have heard that the graphics of the X-box 360 are so advanced that one can see the pores on skin. is there any truth to that? -J.L.

J.L., As reported on KATU.com (the ABC affiliate in Portland, Oregon) the graphics are so good that you can "actually see Russian soldiers exhaling as they battle Nazis on frozen battlefields" in "Call of Duty 2," the WWII first-person shooter game. 360 and several other games were test-run by Matt Slagle, an AP Tech Writer.

Time Article

In the time article on Xbox 360 there is a quote from Bill Gates that gave the impression that Halo 3 was comming out on the PS3's release date. It might be important to note that Microsoft made a retraction notice. http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=61132

Xbox 360 Lounge pics

I really don't have an interest in the Xbox 360 or video games in general, but I found myself across the street from Tokyo's Xbox 360 Lounge on Sunday night, and tried out my new HDV camcorder on it. Some frame captures are below, if anyone thinks they're appropriate for the article

i have a related question. if i convert a video into wma format, can the 360 read it from a standard burnt dvd? if thats the case it will be so much easier to watch home movies. Tik 15:55, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Record from your TV?

Is it possible to record TV shows to the xbox 360 hard drive?

It depends. If the xbox 360 can record video games, yes it can record tv shows, but you need to start buying connection cables & wires:P >x<ino 11:19, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Xbox 360 Lounge Accident

On the opening day of the Xbox 360 Lounge in Japan, one guest (a pop singer, will get his name if it's important) invited to the opening ceremony got hit in the head by a standing light fixture that somehow fell down. He got a bump on his head and it wasn't serious. Should this information be included or would this be too trivial? Some people will take this as a bad omen. --Revth 01:57, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Fanboys blanking?

Some Fanboys are blaking my contributions (Technical Issues/DVD Movie/Huge Power Suply and Energy Hungry). It's sourced and all true and confirmed by reliable tech site Ars Technica and CNET. I ask for Microsoft Xbox Fanboys stop make this. This isn't MSN kids. This is open-source information. No Censorship. --Brazil4Linux 13:25, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Hey, don't mind those fools

>x<ino 16:05, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

I haven't been "blanking" but I do disagree on the inclusion of the "large power supply". The 360 is essentially a high-end gaming PC from the hardware standpoint, and that means large power consumption, and the space needed to convert and distribute that power. All other consoles have a power supply as well - usually inside the console. I will admit that the 360's PS is large, but it's not a technical issue in the sense of a design flaw.--Arcaynn 20:02, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Burn in

I removed the small section on Burn-in, as this is a universal happening in all CRTs and any other type of display that I know of. It is not isolated to the 360 and I do not believe has a place in this article. --Arcaynn 07:14, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Burn-ins do not occur in CRTs, LCDs, or DLPs. It only happens in older projection TVs and plasmas

Rumours and WikiPedia

I've again removed the section on "Project Light Flame" since it is nothing but a minor rumour at this time. The section references this article on some console game fan site (herein lies credibility flag number 1). The site states that some other site has found some sort of evidence (nature unspecified) of the described campaign. It also cites yet a third site as ITS source (third-hand information? credibility flag number 2). Visiting the third-hand source that the '360monster' site cites, we find this notice "EDIT: It has emerged that shortly after we published this article, 1UP.com removed the source from their website. No reason was given; although subsequent reports suggest questions surrounding the validity of their source. We apologise for any confusion." This (third hand) site now reports that the (second hand) site has taken down the original information because of "questions surrounding (its) validity." Ladies and gentlemen, kind sirs, this is what is known as an internet rumour. Totally unverified information that is circulated on every single game-related blog is unfit for inclusion here until it can be verified by a reputable news source (and is one good reason not to even use blogs as a source for an article).

See how much trouble and dialogue we could have saved if everybody kindly checked their sources and attempted to only use first-hand sources from reputable news outlets? -- uberpenguin 04:11, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

External links section

Just how many editorials, fan sites, blogs, and game news sites do we need to link? According to policy (Wikipedia:External_links), we really should only be linking to one notable editorial dump/fansite/blog/game review site, not ten. My personal feeling is that these links are unneccessary in the first place since one doesn't have to go far out of their way to find one of the bajillion gaming related blog-o-editorial-sites out there. Of course this is contestable, but I'd like to see at least some discussion on what site in this category SHOULD be linked and why, rather than simply tolerating a big mess of various sites with almost identical content. In general, we want to include links that provide a significant informative experience beyond what we can cover here, and endless editorials about one person's view of a console and/or the ever-dreaded ill conceived and poorly backed console comparisons just don't qualify as a "significant informative experience" in my mind. Therefore, I've removed most of the external links section and left only what I felt are really worthwhile reading and actually relevant to this subject matter (i.e., not just one of the plethora of general game culture and game review sites). I've also added a link to an IBM DeveloperWorks article that provides a useful (albeit regrettably basic) overview of the design of the Xbox 360 CPU. I left the "Related gaming articles" section in tac
