Hey looks great, how are the colours of the 360 on this monitor? read some bad reviews...

[benjiebarker]

the colors look great. I don't have any calibration hardware to check for accurate colors. I did notice out of the box it is very bright. Also don't use the x-contrast.

I used the AVIA DVD to set the contrast and brightness

here are my settings

R-50, G-50, B-50

contrast - 100

brightness - 70

its a quick monitor.the hdmi has audio...very clear fonts.

i guess if you want great colors get the high-end dell or apple monitor but those are slow monitors...like 5ms i think with input lag.

[tktctym]

@benjiebarker

how is the lag input with this monitor ?

[chadherrella]

no lag...perfect for games...but i really want to get a panasonic s1 42 inch...i need a 42" for my fanatec turbo s wheel.

[Drkadrk]

your lines suck.. and I think you drive with assists on

[benjiebarker]

yeah i'm trying to improve my lines...all assists off. i just wanted to show my new 28" monitor playing race pro.

I love racing games!!! and with forza 3 coming with 900 degree rotattion and H-shifter support I will be able to practice without getting into real accidents :)

[Drkadrk]

k now i feel like an asshole lol... least u have a cool setup

[benjiebarker]

no prob...these hann g monitors are awesome!!! and cheap too! if forza 3 feels as good as race pro i might get 2 more hanns g monitors :)

[No46TheDoctor]

Much like your attitude.

[benjiebarker]

Thanks Steering sensitivity - 20% Analog sector 1 - 10x Analog sector 2 - 10x Analog sector 3 - 10x Throttle sensitivity - 90% Brake sensitivity - 90% Steering Dead zone - 0% Throttle Dead zone - 0% Brake Dead Zone - 0% Speed Sensitivity Steering - 0% Global Steering Lock - 20 degrees

I hear the MS wheel is very highly

rated and works very well with

RacePro and other games.

Anyone care to comment?

[maverickcro]

since there is no better that is best one u can get... .but look out for fanatec wheel... it is officially supported by MS now

[benjiebarker]

yes fanatec is amazing...it will have 900 degrees rotation, a shifter and clutch pedal.

i ordered the pure version last feb...was waiting to see 360 games using the clutch and the forza 3 vids from e3 09 didn't disappoint. so i will start saving up to get the pedals and shifter,..cant wait.

Also glad I ordered in feb...thomas at fanatec sent an email that a free copy of forza 3 will be included due to delays

[benjiebarker]

actually i recall the clutch and shifter wasnt working but thomas at fanatec announced that all the features wof the fanatec turbo s wheel will work on forza 3

[benjiebarker]

yeah im using the MS wheel, and it is the best for the 360 until the fanatec wheel comes out. I hope MS will allow other brands to release 900 degree wheel. H-shifter and clutch pedal

[benjiebarker]

I love race pro...

i cant wait for forza...might save up for and buy 2 more 28" monitors for a triple screen if forza 3 handles as good as race pro

[Retrogamer71]

Forza 3 and Gran Turismo 5 go

for overkill in numbers of cars

and tracks. Both are likely to

suffer from deficiencies.

Racepro on the other hand is

a pure racing game and does

its thing well with some of

the best engine sounds I've

ever heard in a racing game

and good gameplay.

[benjiebarker]

Yeah after playing race pro I never heard cars sound that fierce...its amazing...and the backfire after shifting gears is incredible using a transducer like the buttkicker from guitammer.

I played most of the racing games on the 360 and only race pro uses the buttkicker perfectly...you can actually feel the car on the road...and as you press on the accelerator the vibrations travel through the pedals...incredible...i really hope forza 3 can do the same.

[benjiebarker]

+! at race pro being pure racing...the handling is second to none!

i love how when you brake before the turn and then accelerate at the apex the car starts shaking...then when you exit the turn it shakes again making it feel like your car is actually on real pavement

[maverickcro]

to run multiple scree setup in forza 3 u will need 3 consoles :)

[benjiebarker]

yeah i will see how forza handles first before i give up the cash for a triple screen setup...

the 28" hanns g right now is a bargain at $350...so 2 more - $700

need one more xbox 360...$199

the fantec shifter - $49.95

fanatec pedals -$49.95

savingup right now hehe - 1000 bucks i have 3 months to think about it hehe

[maverickcro]

great setup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
