Larry, do you have examples (photos) of how you packaged the game units in the X5 along with your Invision displays? Getting the displays seems to be easy to order from the dealer, what is a challenge is a packing a game system in the X5 so it looks clean. I am not so tied to one game system vs the other. I am just looking for examples (or ideally a packaged solution) on how to best install a game system.

Since my world revolves around the dealer and OEM worlds I really can't recommend a display. We obviously ticker with a lot of differnet solutions to contain the game systems. Nintendo Wii just came out with a cradle for the will that extends the console horizntally and even doubles as a container for the controller and house the sensor bar as well making this the ideal solution to play Wii in the car. I highly recommend it. You are in Orlando and so am I we should get up one day and ticker around and I will show you what I have come up with and for the record my friend, Lawrence was the name they gave me. "Larry" is for Leisure Suits and Limo Drivers. You can call me Law because you are all my colleagues and friends.

-Law

It looks pretty sweet as well. I think PS3 looks like crap and Xbox is def the shot for future gaming just wait for 2 titles Bioshock and Prototype.

Do you have the PS3? I have the Wii, PS3 and Elite 360, and after I downloaded one of the numerous software updates on the PS3 I noticed a much better picture quality (so much that when I recently purchased the Planet Earth complete series, I bought it in Blu-Ray instead of HD DVD). I also noticed it upconverts standard def. DVD's now, which is used to not do also. I think all of them are good systems, although I have had 3 failures on my XBOX requiring replacement and just yesterday the Wii took a crap as well.

Bad luck my friend. I had PS3 and updated it and updated it I hated Fall of Man so I sold it and the PS3 on Ebay to a member in Canada for like $800. No prob, but my elite is awesome and so is my Wii.

Yes, the Xbox has been less than stellar, but I am glad to see they decided to stand behind it for 3 years. The Wii is a fluke thing (it just says disc read error on all games now). All I can say it that the PS3 was not as good (picture quality wise) until late spring, but no complaints now. The problem is that Sony will come out with some title you must have, and you will be buying another PS3 to play it on if you are a gamer like me.

Extremely true! I will buy it again when they drop the price to $250 and the 4G and 5 G Blu-Ray diode come ut dropping material costs. Until then

Wii has Alien Syndrome & Metroid 3 coming out next week and the week after.

Xbox 360 has Bioshock, prototype, and Halo 3

PS3 has Haze coming out but there is no guarantee it will be good. The gameplay of resistance fall of man sucked.

I can't get enough of gears of war!
