The massive rollout of Xbox 360 kiosks across the US over the last few weeks has not been a completely smooth ride for Microsoft and its distributors. Some problems were related to in-store clashes, (Xbox 360 kiosks aren’t cooperating?) and some were purely human (Xbox kiosks not safe in Wal-Mart’s hands). The human issue was related to the LCD screen being set to the wrong screen resolution, resulting in a blocky — and very non-HD — demonstration of the 360’s graphics. This was one reason behind The Inquirer’s dumbass bad experience with a Wal-Mart Xbox 360 kiosk.
