All of the kinect showings have been un-impressive, plus the price alone is preventative. PS3's Move has many options for you to just purchase what you need. already have a PS3 eye, fine grab the controller for 50 or the the controller combo for 70. want the move bundle, drop 100 on the counter. The kinect however gives you no choice, I already have the 360's camera, but I have to drop 175 for the kinect and still not have the accuracy that either of it's competators have (Wii...

Kind of what I was thinking...the whole article was Move this, and Move that, this is why Kinect will under perform, then bam, ends it with that last statement. Kind of odd, makes you think he is trying to play to both sides.

you are correct in thinking the Power A controller is RF based instead of Bluetooth...which sucks!

You get the new Xbox360″Slim”/Kinect/Contro/Ki nect Adventures and a 4GB Flash Drive.

There are no 360's (currently) with a 4gig built in memory card, only the Arcade has a 256meg (or is it 512meg) built in memory on the motherboard.

It would have been smarter for MS to just man up and include a free 16gig mem card. At least that would be usefull.

I'm not sure where you are going with your comment, or anyones comment saying Sucker Punch should have stuck with the character change in the MAIN character. Lets take a peak at another well known character...Marcus from Geow. How would your thoughts wiggle if Cliffy B up and decided to change Marcus into a Russian or or someone of Hawiian background? Or how about when the movie "The Mummy" where they changed the main female character? Was that a good decision?

You are such a tool!

You can't come up with anything better than trying to downplay and spread dis-information.

Apple did not switch because their new OS at the time "Snow Leopard" is not PowerPC compatible.

Hydro Thunder Hurricane! I loved the original arcade game. First game my son and I would hit when we went to the arcade.

While I have not purchased MAG, I downloaded the last demo before release and liked it alot. Then to have them say they upgraded the visuals in the game for the final version, I was very tempted. Just not my kind of game.

You have to have great gameplay to keep you at a particular game, but the visuals are what help to draw you in.

All we heard about from the media and the 360 boys was "how the graphics were not quite up to snuff to this game or that game".

I call BULL to that one XactGamer, anything sub $500.00 is not a gaming computer, it is a web browser / email machine.

A fairly decent gaming rig follows:

motherboard = 100
quad core processor = 150
memory (4gig) = 110
video card = 350
hard drive = 75
case = 50
operating system = 125
keyboard = 25
mouse = 35
22" LCD monitor = 175

Total of $1195.00 not including shipping

Also figure some of those prices are low (particularly the video card needed to run Crysis on high o...

Copied from the last couple of paragraphs of the "article":

Fixing the Xbox 360 yourself is not difficult, as long as you are comfortable opening up the machine yourself and following instructions.

The Xbox 360 3 Red Light Fix Guide is a a great solution to fixing the 3 ring rings of death on your Xbox 360 gaming console if any annoyance happen to bother you. The guide has proven to work many times over and over again for many Xbox 360 users wor...

"Wii # 3 do graphics really matter?"

If they didn't, we would not have the 360 or the PS3.

They could enable that as a dedicated video encoder.

I'm unsure but was just thinking, every Cell processor has 7 SPU's active with a 8th SPU disabled right?

So they could enable the 8th SPU and use that as a dedicated video capture/endoder.

Mainly because you never know what abrasive the particular manufacture of the toothpaste is using (if any).

I have always used car cleaner then car wax to repolish any cd's that have been scratched. Both products are designed for the clearcoat of a car's finish, the car cleaner uses a heavy abrasive, then the car wax uses a very fine abrassive.

As long as the CD is not cracked, or the scratch is so deep it is more of a grove than a scratch, using...
