17rnds at about 7yards
2 to the head, one missing completely (I'm no good with fast shots yet)
15 to body, all but 2 within a 3x3 square.
Eh, I still suck, but I'm getting better...

Since April I've put about 500 through it, and one of my buddies has put about 300 through. Total it has 830 through it with zero issues.

I'm trying to hook up my PS3 to the surround system in the front room. I take it I need 2 HD cables? One from PS3 > TV the other from the DVD Player > TV?

Or am I wrong? The manual is no help at all, really :/

[Fuse]

Both of my cars were broken into last night and my radar detector and GPS were stolen... I'm pissed!

Well first of all.... Why're you hooking up a PS3 -AND- a DVD player?

[NoCry]

use one of those optical cables (red laser thing).

I want to hook it up to the surround sound which is only available if I hook up the PS3 to the DVD. :/

I thought that might be the case.

Okay, so now the question is, what kind of audio inputs does the DVD player have?  Most DVD Surround Sound systems will have an auxiliary input for audio coming from another source.

It's probably not going to be HDMI.  If there is one, it will most likely be a digital S/PDIF input, or an analog stereo input.  If it's a S/PDIF, it will be one of two connections.  It will either be a TOSLINK ("red laser thing") optical cable, or a single RCA connection (orange in color, will be marked "DIGITAL").  If it's an analog stereo input, it'll be your standard Red-Right/White-Left connection.

If it is the Stereo RCA inputs, use an HDMI cable to connect to your TV.  Then use the composite (Yellow/Red/White) RCa cable that should have come with the PS3, to hook up to the auxiliary input.  Go into to your crossbar, and go to settings.  Set your video settings to use the HDMI cable at whatever your highest resolution is.  Then go to the audio settings and set the audio to use the composite cable, selecting whatever surround sound options your system supports.

If it has the TOSLINK connection, it's all done the same way.  Use your HDMI for video, and set the TOSLINK for audio.

If your DVD player has both, I'd recommend the digital TOSLINK over the analog stereo RCA.

Strip Wii Tennis is the best thing ever to play with your girlfriend / boyfriend...especially if you know you're good at it! ;P

I've done strip bowling, not bad either.

Strip bowling is fun.  There's something about watching a girl play video games in just her panties.
