The power outages wouldn't affect the servers UPS's. They are in place to handle extended power failures. I would also assume that they have server banks all over the world.

Elite was really easy. All you need for the co-op trophies is a second controller. The second player automatically teleports to each checkpoint. You just have to get them both to the shooting range on the first mission.

"Melanie Killen, Ph.D., a professor at the University of Maryland who has pushed for laws that govern the sale of video games, disagrees that the ESRB rating system is working. She says 9-year-olds are playing games like Bulletstorm and that there is no real enforcement".

Funny, it's the rating systems total fault. I agree that sometimes it a child can get his hands on adult material due to a lack of enforcement at retail and retailers should be held accountable...

Gears of War 1 and 2 were filled with bugs, why would I think Cliffy B's newest game wouldn't suffer from the same problems. I had a shit ton of fun with the demo, but I'm going to wait awhile before I pick this up. I want to read customer reviews before i pay for it. Plus I'll be busy for a bit with KZ3, Homefront, and Socom 4. Crysis 2 looks good too.

3D does not use the cross over of Ethernet over HDMI. 3D at 1080p just needs to transfer double the data and at the same speed as a regular 1080p signal.

I recently bought a Panasonic 50VT20 and I'm able to watch 3D from my PS3 and my 3D Blu-ray player with my cheap HDMI cables from Charter Communications.

The Best Buy salesman I bought the TV from told me I needed HDMI 1.4 in order to watch 3D and he's wrong. It'...

i don't plan on having any moisture around my electronics, so i don't worry about corrosion.

HDMI is no longer specified in 1.1 - 1.4. It is labeled based on whether it is high speed or not, and if it is Ethernet over HDMI capable. Any High speed HDMI cable (4.7 Gbs or higher) is fast enough to handle 3D AT 1080P. The draw back is not the cable, it's the HDMI specifications of your equipment that you need to be concerned about.

@MNicholas

You will never get RF interference on a digital cable because a digital cable never carries an RF signal.

Gold plating is another RF only application and is completely unnecessary for analog or digital cables. The only reason gold is better is because it conducts signals for a much longer distance. Therefore when being used only to make a connection, there is no distance to carry and no possible attenuation difference. If the internal cable conduc...

I'm sorry, but I just can't get excited about any of it. The Wii sucks, I've played mine for about two hours in the last year. Only because my 5 year old wanted to slice fruit.

The Move sucks. I bought the PS move because my daughters wanted Eyepet. I tried each of the games on Sports Champions and they are all boring.

Kinect looks even stupider than than the other two and I refuse to waste my money on it.

I think that the Move ha...

Same thing happened to my 4yr. old 60gb about 6 weeks ago, I got lazy on vacuuming it out and one day it just shut off with the red flashing light. It did turn back on and play for the rest of the night, but the next day it did it again twice, I got it on long enough to back it up again and deactivate my friends and my PSN accounts. It is important if you can to deactivate your systems active PSN accounts otherwise they will be tied to that system forever and you can only ever have 5 systems ...

Bohan was awesome. If anyone here hasn't played Heavenly Sword yet, I recommend that you rent it. It's a very good game, just way too short. I think I finished it around six hours.

I was unaware that the batteries in a DS3 needed replacing, I've been rocking mine since release. It still holds its charge for over 12hrs. I play about 10-15 hours a week, so for the last 2 1/2 years I've played around 1600 hrs on its original battery. I think I'll end up buying a new controller due to it wear and tear before I need a new battery.

If it was developed by R* it would've gotten a 10.

Everything he described reminded me exactly of how I felt about GTA4.

This tech demo has convinced me to buy Move and a 3DTV. I was unsure if or when I'd buy it until now. That was really cool.

Anyone who says its a Wii knock off is ignorant.

Call me old fashioned, but thats why I prefer print media. I am so disgusted by the illiteracy, poor punctuation and "journalism" that gets passed online.

It's not that hard or time consuming to proof read your story. Take some pride in your work for Christ sake or no one will take you seriously!

I remember when Zipper changed Socom's teams from SEALs vs. Terrorists to SEALs vs Mercinaries. LOL. The same thing will end up being patched into this game.

If this was a movie, documentary, or a journalists report it would be accepted, but since its a game the world is coming to an end. I don't remember anyone trying to ban the HBO series "Generation Kill". That doc. portrayed the armed forces in Iraq as a bunch of uneducated kids who just wanted to kill ...

All I have to say is that it's too bad that Hello Games weren't able to put Joe Danger on XBL, because it's an incredibly awesome game and it would've sold a ton on the 360. It's the best PSN game I've bought. Congratulations to Sony for seeing that.

I love RPG'S and while I haven't played all of the ones listed, My top 5 would Chrono Trigger, Xenogears, FF10, Suikoden, and Dragon Warrior simply for drawing me into the RPG's back at age 10.

You're missing the point.

When Gamestop sells an opened game as new, you as the consumer have the option to refuse to purchase it. Gamestop cannot force you to buy. Gamestop in turn has the right to refuse a refund for an opened or "used" game.

We all know that common sense tells us, as a business, Gamestop opens the game puts it in a case and then seals and labels the game as purchased new. If they were selling games that were played and trade...

If the only new copy they have to sell is the one they opened in order to display the case and you don't like it, then DON'T BUY IT!!! No one is forcing you to buy an open copy. Go somewhere else you idiot.

This dude is a complete jack ass to be offended that he got caught trying to cheat his way into playing a game for free. You used your moms gas money to buy a game!!! Go rent it for $3 and let your mom drive her car. Or get a job and buy your own games you loser. ...
