The answer to both of your questions is you need to be Champion in order to access them. :D

Yeah that is a very nice sound indeed.

Hey GodsteR welcome to the boards, thanks for the comment on the site and I'm sure we'll see you about on the island !!

Source: http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/03/20/zephyr-dubbed-360-elite-new-details/ With the revelation that the black Xbox 360, also known as "Zephyr" is in fact real (the image above is a dev kit, by the way), Engadget has gathered some concrete details from a trusted source. Some of these details were uncovered earlier this morning, but some questions -- particularly the notion of built in WiFi -- are brand new. See the fresh details below. First of all, the black Xbox 360 will be officially known as the Xbox 360 Elite. The Elite will be manufactured in limited quantities, possibly a few hundred thousand. Everything included with the unit will be black, including the case, controller, and Live headset. The packaging will be new as well. The Elite will cost $479 and will be sold alongside Premium and Core packs. Eventually, a white version of the Elite will replace Xbox 360 Premium packs. Presumably, this will happen shortly after the Elite is sold out. Once this happens, Premiums will include the 120 GB HDD and HDMI. There is no solid date for the Elite-to-Premium transition, though it is estimated to happen late summer or early fall. The Elite runs cooler than the current Premium, but it is unknown if it takes advantage of 65nm chips. Prices could remain the same when Premiums convert to 120GB/HDMI, but a price cut may still occur once the 65nm chips are implemented. The HD-DVD player will definitely not be bundled with the Elite and Microsoft stands by its claim that it has no plans to ever integrate an HD-DVD drive into the Xbox 360. There are no plans to integrate WiFi into the Elite or future Premium packs. So there you have it, everything we know about the Elite until Microsoft decides to send out an official press release. Now that you know all the details (especially the bit about the Elite running cooler), do you plan on picking up an Xbox 360 Elite?

Most people still visit from the US and Japan is appearing more and more now but I think they're mainly lurkers.

Already earmarked for phase #2. Phase #3 will be trying to integrate with your forum login as at the moment it's a separate thing.

It us officially asking thus why it's in the Main news for the community. :)

Thought it was about time we had this old favourite so let's see how organised, messy, pedantic, occ you are with your PC's. Please attach your pics if over 800x600 and keep them under 1Mb, thanks. Failure to do so will result in negative rep being given.

Hehe whatever do you mean? :eek_blue:

Yeah you can ask her to gun it or to slide it and she will gladly oblige.

Hi there anju/Can welcome to the board and cheers for joining. There are a few PC players on the board already and I would recommend you check 'User CP > Edit Profile' and enter your gamespy id so that other players can find and add you easily. Catch you later! :D

Diddly not a very well known function of the Xbox dashboard is the Mute option and Block Communications when viewing a players profile. So select this player from your recent players list and select Mute and then Block communications, no more hassle from this muppet.

This was posted in response to a question in the Xbox 360 thread but it applies to the PC and maybe even the PS2 and PSP (not sure). One tip that not a lot of people know is Bookmarks can be jumped to without leaving the road or entering the map. So say for example you want to meet in the city but it's too busy all the time, when you're in the city press Start > Options > Bookmarks > New > Take pic > Name bookmark. Get your mate(s) to do this at roughly the same point. Now jump to that quiet spot (it can be anywhere on the map) and meet up and then say jump to City bookmark and all you do is press Start > Options > Bookmarks > LIST > Select the bookmark you want and activate it. The game will load and warp you to that location with your mates still with you and if they do the same you can jump all over. This is also great if you get hassle online from players. You just stop and say Jump to Airport, Racetrack, City, Harbour, VW dealer etc... And if you're all locked you can have hours of fun together.

Yep that's the best way, have your mate jump to a quiet place on the map and then goto your map, select the players tab then filter and select friends. Select your friend on the map, zoom in and then click to join him, if he's still and it's fairly quiet you will jump right into his session. Then just lock each other and you can drive for as long and as far as you liek without losing each other. One tip that not a lot of people know is Bookmarks can be jumped to without leaving the road or entering the map.

I wouldn't see why the Lexus' wouldn't come to the PC in the future especially if the Lexus dealer is still in the PC version albeit inactive. As for your laptop, I do think you would be out of luck as TDU requires a graphics card to have SM2.0 whatever that is and I believe only standalone cards can have that rather than onboard. I'm sure someone can clear this up.

Re: [Photo & Videos] That was close. I was going to create a new thread for this then I remember we already have this one so from on this thread is for your near misses and close calls. I have added to past videos of mine, one from a while ago and one from November, anyone who has driven on TDU with me knows I like to attack the traffic headon and this is just 2 examples of it in action. :D Enjoy ! [updated in the first post]

I'm going to be renaming them soon to more traffic oriented phrases but I might keep the distinguished road just to annoy people.

I can tell you that has been been considered when we started actually hearing about TDU last year and will probably be implemented in phase #2. Just to let you know the control panel won't allow the name spam in domains and databases due to the spam filter for obvious reasons. The arcade we will be implementing soon so don't worry about that.

It's been down about 2 hours now.

This is your time to shine and tell us - the muppets at TDU Central - what you would like to see added, removed, imploded, inserted etc into the TDU Central community. The site is on it's way and you kind of know what's going on there but we want to know what our members have been thinking of and if they're good or you pay us enough of a bribe then we'll do it. ;) So get your thinking helmets on and crash those ideas and suggestions hard !!

Yeah the Red one really brings down the Yellow one, it would be better without him. ;)

Hmm creating what I call a 'bob' account so that we can distill pain and suffering on our members after testing it out on 'bob'. BTW if you're on Forzacentral note 'bob' is there but he's currently banned. lol

The widened it plus made some corners less sharp to appeal more adequately to online play. Big mistake when GT4 mauled it in the replicate stakes. Ever get a chance to play GT4 (or enthusia) with a DFP, do it ! Ooh you're hopeful, all I know is central and eastern europe seems to know where we are as the logs are full of Belgian, German, Polish, Danish, French, Spanish, Portuguese and UK people. lol

If it had the sorting like when you goto Sell a car on trade that would be excellent.
