Might be a regional problem or local. I literally just got done playing 3 matches of Team Deathmatch straight through with zero lag or issues.

I was disappointed that there were no "test chambers" after completing the story mode. The Co-Op mode sort of made up for that I suppose.

Remember the original had those chambers, each with set goals for footsteps, portals, and time. Also the "advanced test chambers". Those would have been a nice inclusion.

Epic and People Can Fly co-developed Bulletstorm.

I'm half tempted to say hopefully not.

Do you want to put your Nextbox on top of your TV? Or dead center in front of your TV for optimal performance of the embedded camera?

They could always ship a smaller, slimmed downed, possible upgraded version with each console though. Sort of like a second "controller", with controller in " " for obvious reasons haha.

I've had the eject issue a few times myself.

One trick that works some times is holding the eject button while the system is on, does a "manual eject". The "fan test" is another desperate way to remove a disc from older systems like my 40Gb.

Also I'd go for the upgrade when you send it in.

If they lowered the price on Gatorade I'd buy more Gatorade.

If they lowered the price on Gasoline, I'd take the family car out more.

If they lowered the price of the PS3, I'm sure more people would buy one. I might even upgrade.

See how that works?

Shipping should be getting better in most locations after Gamefly won a discrimination lawsuit against USPS.

But Gamefly also has the better selection. Granted you have to wait a few days for a game to get to you, but you get the whole month like you said.

They would need a whole separate Redbox next to the movie Redbox to handle a good enough selection of games to hurt Gamefly.

I agree, but Max probably just wants to change his "liveries", that is more sim than anything.

I happen to like that the creator of a racing simulator actually races.

EDIT: (Forza fans, not saying Forza sucks, but to me that is the only thing Forza has over GT series.)

Lol, 5 days is a long time.

Took Codemasters a WEEK, oh NOES, Kill Codemasters, they took forever and a half.

5 Days is fast for a turnaround on something of that magnitude. Other companies can take months to inform, especially if they are government funded, like hospitals.

Long read, I agree with some of it. There were some flaws, but overall I enjoyed it, just beat it last night. Definitely expected a better ending.

But just a tip for your PSP games, go to Account Management, Transaction Management, Subscriptions (I Think), and choose SCEA, there you can pick your PSP games. Given you do that before the stuff is pulled.

Unless of course you're referring to PSP games you've already downloaded, then ouch, idk what to ...

Thanks for the tips everyone. I'm still in the early stages of designing a system so there is more shopping around to do, but I'll keep all that in mind.

Well decent, great, and top of the line are all different.

You sure can build a decent one for 500 given you shop around.

I think it has something to do with a timed MS deal.

They have a timed deal with the DLC and would not be surprised if they have a timed bundle package. After all MS does release custom branded COD Xbox 360's with each game that releases.

There doing what I would call "Caring about the Gamers".

They are bundling two great games in one package with some goodies thrown in for a fair price for those who have never played the games before.

That would intrigue me. I haven't played any of the Resistance titles other than their respective demos, so I'm keeping an eye on that Resistance pack.

70p, thank you, proved a good point.

I pay 75 cents for a can of Coke over here in the US, east coast. So if we pay the same for a can of soda without the exchange rate taking effect, why can't we pay the same for electronics?

@Elven6

Your right, it could have been anyone that was hacked, but the fact that some of those passwords and emails taken WORK for Live should raise concern with MS.

The point is Lulsec never said where they got the information. So it is still possible that it was taken from MS, Facebook, Twitter, WoW, etc...

I'm just speaking on the possibility, which should raise concern with MS, and I'm sure it has even if they are not public abou...

I don't know if they were hacked directly, but the fact that 59,000 (what I saw, checked for my info in the list released) email addresses and passwords were taken that are supposed to work with Live, Facebook, Twitter, and PayPal should raise alarms.

If it wasn't taken from MS directly, then someone MS trusts with that data was hacked. Either way it is something I'm sure MS is looking into, or should be, even if they deny any hack.

EDIT: It is a...

I'm sure PS3 owners buy more than 1 game. I do, but I don't do it on the same day very often at all. I usually wait a month or two to get another, some might wait longer.

But either way it is hard not to argue that KZ3 releasing the same day had an effect. Both FPS's, so same genre.

Did Sony "officially" announce the UK price point?

I mean if we are just going on converted prices, then there's a problem

First off, since the conversion may show that UK residents are paying more because you've converted the price to US dollars. But what if UK residents make more money in comparison to US residents?

An example I seen someone post the other day, a US resident makes $2,000 a month, a UK resident makes 2000...

30 days of Plus makes you a Plus member, so yes, you have access until your Plus membership expires or the Beta ends, whichever comes first.
