Knowing they constantly breakdown? I would like to know how many hours this guy puts into his 360. Obviously a good amount of time considering how he has, "several" dead consoles and is planning to sue over it.
Honestly, I've noticed that most of the people who got RROD played their 360 too much. My friend's has RROD 3 times on his 3 year old 360 and he plays a solid 7 hours each day. My cousins? He's had his since its release and he plays it maybe 2 hours each ...
So, that tells you people are buying all the PS3's? Actually, Sony just is slow at getting their PS3's in stock. Go figure.
Zune is a failure? Most of my friends have sold their Ipods for Zune's. Microsoft is a huge business, they are going to lose its touch here and there. But, right now they haven't. They are struggling so bad to lower the price, and everyone is so glued to their consoles that a rumor is dubbed fact.
I was going to explain why Natal is great, then I realized there's no point since this is N4G; home of fanboys.
I can't even comprehend what you are saying your spelling is so bad...
All I got was that the Wii died and apparently so is Xbox. The gap between the Xbox 360 and the PS3 is closing, if that is what you are referring too. But, that doesn't mean the Xbox 360 is dying. Give some examples and maybe I can see, or not.
Oh and Natal isn't going well? Multiple sites, though they are unknown, have given very good reviews of Natal. Move, so far, is just being compared to ...
Uhm, actually most people are considering that Microsoft just want to make money. :|
Microsoft is a company, just like Sony, and they are going to want to make money.
Your comment would be more convincing if you had spell-checked it. Anyways, this isn't going to "kill" Xbox. Sure, it has cost them a lot of money, but Move is costing Sony a lot of money too. You need to realize that Microsoft has been trying to reduce the price of Natal. Eventually, the price will probably be reduced, if that is the real price anyways.
And, Sony smarter? Sony took the "easy" route, but it has been done before. Move is, and will be, popular. ...
The world's next big thing? Shoving it in everyone's faces? How can you say that when Sony makes commercials for Move, in my opinion, are shoving their product around?
You need to learn business before posting comments like that. When a company produces a product that has highly advance technology in it, they are FORCED to up the price, whether they like it or not. Look, I don't like Microsoft, but I don't exactly dislike them. They have taken out the expensive parts ...
This article is just fuel for the fanboys. :|
Defending Microsoft? I said that I don't like the price, but I do understand why it may be a little expensive.
Sorry, but if that accessory has technology that cost the company a lot of money, they are forced to make the price high. Like I mentioned, the PS3's launch price. I know a lot of people will probably not buy Natal if this is truly the price, but atleast understand why Microsoft made it that way.
The title of this says it is confirmed yet the contents of this use, "Been led to believe"?
While I don't like this price, Natal will be expensive (or somewhat expensive) in the end. Microsoft has tried and tried to reduce the price and I kind of doubt that this is the "official" price tag for Natal.
New video games cost $60 and yet people want Natal to be around that price? I don't like the price mentioned in the article, but for Natal to be arou...
Bach retired and Allard quit. There's a difference.
Sorry, but this happens quite a lot. Big companies are always losing some big employee that shocks us, when it really shouldn't. Unless more people quit, this is just normal.
@xabmol; While it is true that the YLOD isn't as bad at the RROD was, it's starting to get bad. There are more reports of YLOD appearing and numbers are rising, slowly, but are rising.
@IRetrouk; I love your post. I really do. Yes, the failure rate is above 50 percent. Actually, no. It WAS above 50 percent. Despite what some people say, Microsoft DID realize that they pushed their product out there and they replaced the 360's the best they could, giving the customer little gifts. The old models were unreliable. Now they are reliable. The Jasper models are good consoles. The original, not so much. Maybe you should specify that instead of generalizing the models as a whol...
Articles that get approved nowadays...Gosh.
I've had my Xbox 360 for a year and a half, no problems whatsoever. I'll admit, the old models were pretty unreliable, but the newer models are fine. This article is flawed, unless you're going to go and buy a used Xbox 360.
Hmm, Microsoft is a company I thought? Just like Sony and Nintendo...It's the business world. Get over it. (:
This post made me realize how selfish some gamers are. :|
I doubt PSN will remain free after E3. If not, then next year perhaps. Sony is regaining its stance, but slowly and that isn't good enough. :/
Servers cost money. Sure, maybe it is annoying to pay-to-play, but I hate it when gamers are selfish and want everything for free. It's like a car, it's needs gas to run and that gas costs money.
A gaming session of how many hours? That is what I'm getting at. A lot of gamers put too many hours into playing and that can really stress the console out.
