They didn't go with the larger unit because it would have made the bundle more expensive.
MS knows that the average consumer doesn't know what the hdd space in a console is for when they're buying a console--they'll just buy the cheapest one. Once they realize they need more space, though, they'll be forced to buy MS's 500% mark-up proprietary hdds.
This way, MS wins all the way: they fooled you into buying the console, and they got yo...
Shows just how much MS is willing to sacrifice to con people into buying their console.
"Hey look at our bundle: for less than the price of the PS3, you get the console, Kinect, AND a game."
Except the console will need a hdd upgrade within the month--an outrageously-priced proprietary MS hdd. Not to mention paying for Live if you want to play online, which is free on PS3. So, if you want to play on your 360S w/ Kinect bundle for MS's projected ...
Captain Marvel!
I should start watching that show if all these heroes are in it. Game looks sweet.
poopnscoop is about to answer that for us. Personal attacks ftl.
Kinect couldn't!
In an ideal world, yes. But this is MS we're talking about--the people who released the 360.
Besides, Kardashian's ass is too big.
No.
lol
Will they be centerfolds from the era, or modern ones?
Because if it is, then this story is a huge fail.
If the pic is just a stand-in, then the story could be legit... But is there really a discernible advantage to being wired vs wireless?
lol, I think nikkisixx2 just unwittingly proved Pachter wrong!
"Hell, I need the money anyways for other games." That's the exact opposite of what Pachter guessed. He said gamers weren't buying other games because of MW2, and here we have nikki saying he (or she) wouldn't buy Black Ops if there was a monthly fee because he/she needs the money to buy other games!
Thanks nikki, you just proved Pachter wrong.
the States would NEVER allow sex-simulator games to be released. Remember the hot coffee scandal?? That was over some piece of code that had to be hacked in order to be accessed, and it was a far-cry from a sex simulator.
Forget about virtual sex on your 360.
Singluarity, Limbo, and Naughty Bear OVERLOOKED?? Every review site and their mother reviewed them. If they're underperforming in the sales department, maybe it's because THEY'RE NO GOOD? Seriously, I have nothing to play right now, and even then I won't even consider buying Singularity or Naughty Bear... I want to apologize for grouping Limbo with them, I didn't mean to say it was bad! I would definitely buy that one if it was on PS3!
Examiner.com is garb...
that's not what their list was about. The list is "Top hardware revisions" not "most needed hardware revisions". That's why I think PS2 should be #1.
360s: Still scratches discs, still sounds like an airplane, still has an external power supply, and the only way it eliminated the RRoD was by removing the red lights--otherwise, it still exists. Not to mention it's the ugliest and most boring console design this gen.
I see nothing praise-worthy in the re-design.
I would have put the PS2 slim #1, because it was smaller than your average discman! Not to mention it kept the console alive well beyond the 10 ...
Even god damn Time magazine got in on the PS3 bashing at launch (seriously, wtf does Time know about gaming--according to the article's author, Resistance was a shoot'em up)

I find absolutely nothing funny in a "review site" that isn't able to produce unbiased reviews, and then they try to hide that fact by mocking the very concept.
The joke here isn't on Sterling's critics, and it isn't his review either; the joke here IS Jim Sterling, because he's a reviewer who doesn't even understand the concept of a review.
I don't understand how Demon's Souls can be called a mistake in any way, shape, or form. One of the best games I've ever played, one of the few games this gen worthy of being called hardcore, and they made a full translation for NA (and other regions too, I think, but I got the NA version so it's the only one I care about--no offense to anyone else!).
I don't see where the mistake is.
I platted the first game, so needless to say I played the game a lot and I loved it a lot, and I MUCH preferred the new Cole. I hope it's more a middle-ground (leaning more toward new-Cole middle-ground) than total return to old Cole.
Why couldn't Sucker Punch be more like Blizzard on this one and have the balls to stick to their artistic decisions. FFS, there was a petition with over 200,000 signatures begging Blizzard to change Diablo 3;s art style and they didn'...
