Nice. Most definitely nice.
And the peculiar thing is the greatest game that we played on that fateful night actually didn't look anything like this game...

This is just a tribute.
Southland Tales was awesome! :)
I'm pretty sure Extenders support this. I'm running the Windows 7 RC build, and I have my Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1600 doing ClearQAM recording/TV viewing in Media Center. When I tune into a digital channel (just the locals with Time Warner here in Austin, TX), I get the Dolby Digital Plus logo in the channel info when I tune to it, and it plays through the Extender just fine. This MIGHT just be the guide info that downloads that info, but I do get Dolby Digital stream through my receiver.
Action games FTW!
I downloaded this last night and tried it. The interface is certainly improved (and unsurprisingly "Zuneish" with the Twist UI elements at the top), but the video quality is indeed pretty poor.

I am downright frustrated at Microsoft's insistence on not using pre-established services such as Hulu and the like here. I have no problem with them wrapping up all of the available services into this interface, but PLEASE stop re-inventing the wheel and making us watch the failed attempts. This problem was already solved handily by Hulu; just interface with them for a small fee and call it a day. It would also solve the dearth of content problem that happens when these types of services get launched by Microsoft...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
