Non-Gaming / Off-Topic / HDTV - my new passion

I got the InFocus X1 Projector today, Circuit City had them on clearance for $650.. that's about $300 less than I thought it would be. There's still 1 left at the Gastonia NC Circuit City  Hooked it up briefly to my laptop and DAMN! Played LOTR and Shrek 2 against the wall and it looked awesome. 104" diagonal screen size (at 16:9). Can't wait til I get my good DVD player hooked up to it and get a projection screen. BTW Jeff Jones, that TV is now on sale for $999 instead of $1099..according to CC you have 30 days to get 110% back!

Non-Gaming / Off-Topic / HDTV - my new passion

On the subject of Home Theater, has anyone tried/bought a DLP projector instead of a TV? I've been looking at that option also, for about a thousand bucks I could get a projector and have a 5x8 foot picture. They claim the projectors are HDTV compatiblecan be used with progressive scan DVD players, digital cable, XBox, etc, and the picture is great.. any experience? I've got a new 12x18 room that I'm going to use so space is not an issue.

Good to hear you like the set, Jeff. I've been eyeballin' that same one for a few weeks now. Was very impressed by the user reviews at Circuit City's site. Now there's an official GGFE also! Hopefully after I finish Christmas shopping I'll have enough left to get it.

Non-Gaming / Off-Topic / Another post-partum tragedy

Horrible tragedy, no doubt. One thing that hasn't been mentioned is this quote:
"No one answered the door Monday night at the family's apartment in suburban Dallas"
I can't believe that a reporter would have the balls to go try to get a comment from the poor father on the same day that this happened! WTF?

Speaking of the bridge, I've gotten to the far side, killed the bad guys, and got into the room with the blue forcefield.. now I'm stuck. I can't get the forcefield down. Any help?

SHIT!
Think I can return the game to Best Buy? I still have my receipt. You're trolling my troll right? I was joking. Joking??!!?! Thanks a lot! I just got into a huge fight with the Best Buy manager.. I'm gonna get his ass fired!! He told me I couldn't come into the store because I have a broken leg and it was too crowded for my wheelchair.. All that was for nothing??

DEATH OF THE G-MAN??
In the Dune Buggy level, there is a point where you reach a friendly base and have to fight off a gunship (this is where you get the rocket launcher).. I was running around camp exploring and ran into the G-Man on a balcony.. he just stood there in front of me.. after the battle I went back and he was dead in a pool of blood! WTF??
Edit: Pics posted below.
