The Madness Out of Time

Sexy remote, but I just bought the standard remote. I was feeling a bit miffed after looking at the pics, but when I realized that not all functions/buttons are present at once, I feel better. (It's a click-for-more-options kinda thing...)

Still, swank.

Last page of the article has Warhawk. It's in the article dropdown nav too. Or, "don't you read the articles?" ;)

Yeah, unfortunately you do. :( This tuner is for over-the-air broadcasts.

Unfortunately, PlayTV currently only accepts terrestrial, over-the-air signals (e.g. FreeView in Europe).

Maybe they'll add cable/sat support and bring it to North America, but it's too early to tell.

...Just like all the other studios who do it far more insidiously.

Lookit' those updates! Talk about a) desperate, or b) suspicious.

Hey, Peggy! Was that your own site you've listed as the source?

I'm just going to play it on my PC(s). That's one reason I lean towards the PS3 as my console choice: I have high-powered PC options to fill in the gaps.

While I'd love to play it while reclining on my couches, there's certainly something to be said for m&kb support. Oi.

My God! So *that's* what happened to Monroe from _Too Close For Comfort_!

Kind of appropriate, though. A nougat-coated toy with a nougat-filled man.

Maybe if you read more books with fewer pictures you wouldn't have to struggle so much with an online article that's longer than 200 words.

Seriously, if it's too much for you to read, skip it.

Uh oh.

I predict 0-600 degrees in under 2 hours.

If you read my post properly, you'd have seen that I said that quote wasn't the be-all and end-all of the subject, and that the rest of the the thread should give you some information you're clearly lacking.

Saying the 360's drive running at 4x is twice as fast as the PS3's Blu-ray drive is idiotic. Don't try to back-pedal on your mistakes.

You're so dense that you obviously can't comprehend Free Radical's well-known sense of humour.

This last bit about Halo/BioShock has been a laugh-fest for many of us who have enjoyed their games in the past.

If you can't identify sarcasm, then you *really* should stop reading news/forums online.

I can't *wait* to see how you people respond to Timesplitters 4, which is "gearing" ;) up to take the p155 out of all the big game franchises. ...

The fact that you're under the impression that 2x Blu-ray speed is the same as 2x DVD speed illustrates your lack of knowledge on the subject.

Do you even know the difference between CLV and CAV?

Here's some current info on a topic that should have been laid to rest last year.

"2x Blu-ray Drive (72Mbps(9MB/s))
Single Layer (2x CLV) - Constant Linear Velocity (Same speed across entire disk)
Double Layer - Couldn't find any data bu...

Okay, so to put the ball back in your court:

Well, Sony took care of mine after 1 simple phone call. My launch unit had bad DREs after 3 years, and after sending it back the next day, I had my fixed PS2 back with replacement head and drive mechanism within 5 days, free shipping. It's still working today.

Many other people had similar success stories in the previous years as well, it just takes some experience with talking to support people over the phone. Kids who didn't get a free fix should have had their parents mak...

Sooo... you're a Drama student. Good for you. Enjoy your free course credit.

Anyway, there's no point in getting so excited about this game until the final game is out and in gamers' hands.

Until then, have fun with your pillowtalk.

Went over your head, did it? The idea of the average person expecting to just plug in a USB receiver to watch/record TV on their PS3 certainly warranted a sarcastic reply.

Sony's been saying that for about 5 years now. It was at the Sony BB (Broadband-something or another) expo in Japan, March 2002 I believe (2003?). They said they were hoping to have TiVo-like functionality added to the (then) recently announced HD and network adapter. As with Home, it was delayed a generation, but this functionality has been on the backburner for a long time.

And the software to run it would be...?

Shame, is it?

I have a high-end PC, so I can play the 360 games that interest me just fine. No worries here, I'll be enjoying BioShock!

System Shock 2 is one of my all-time favourites, so I'm really looking forward to this one.
