Did you just buy it or did you buy it a long time ago? I have a monthly subscription. The in Qore download does not work but they did send me a beta key via email and I don't think I signed up for it anywhere else. So I'd say check that email account your psn account is tied to.

You can already categorize your games and videos 1 level deep. I believe it's the square button to change to category listing view. I already do this with demos, puzzle games, racing games, etc. It makes finding your content easier but you do have to file it yourself. You can give it a category by pressing triangle on the game/video and going to information I think. Then you have to enter a album name? I can't remember off the top of my head what the field is called. Anyway once you do ...

Your missing the bigger picture.

I posted this theory earlier today but I'll try to summarize it here.

Microsoft could be paying for their exclusives by using the money they get from customers for their Live service. This "payment" is probably at least partially paid for by exclusive advertising. You know those ads on TV that say Xbox 360 in the end even when it is on other platforms. This in turn grabs the mindless consumer who will in turn probably pay fo...

These are just my theories on Microsoft's current strategy.
Currently it's all about grabbing market share as it probably should be. They're most likely paying for their exclusives by using the money they get from customers for their Live service. This "payment" is probably at least partially paid for by exclusive advertising. You know those ads on TV that say Xbox 360 in the end even when it is on other platforms. This in turn grabs the mindless consumer who will in turn ...

Hmm want to enlighten me on how your actually reading 360 disc's with your nero/roxio? I'm just going to hypothesize on where the missing 1.7Gigs is (8.5GB-6.8GB).. The 360 Discs are hybrid discs that have a regular dvd partition and a proprietary data portion not readable by most dvd drives. In order for the dvd portion to be recognized in all dvd players it needs data written out to past 1Gig. I'm not sure what the exact number needed is. I'm guessing this is where the missing space is...

It's actually 6.8 GB you can read a discussion about it here

It says 0 bytes free because you can't write to the disk.

Looks like it very well may be 33Gb for the localized version.

Who ever posted that is a 360 fan boy.

"I am a software developer with a master’s degree in CS, so I can confirm PS3 is vastly inferior to Xbox 360 as a game console."

There are lots of idiots with master's degrees in CS. Even an intelligible person can be mislead without knowing all the facts. Somehow I'm betting this person loves Microsoft and used their software exclusively in school.

"During its inception, CELL’s architecture was mai...

Wait let me get this straight you've played with the microsoft wheel but not with any GT series wheel?

Let me give you my little comparison opinion since I have the MS wheel, Original GT wheel for the PS2 and Driving Force Pro wheel.
The microsoft wheel has an edge when it comes to not having to be wired to the console (still needs to be plugged in if you want true force feedback). It also offers rumble but you won't really feel it if your using force feedback. Now where ...

I've tried many things to figure out the problem but nothing seems to help. I usually don't have a bluetooth headset on when this happens so that can't be the cause of it. There may just be too many 2.4Ghz networks in my neighborhood. All I know is both of my SIXAXIS controllers drop out occasionally. I've also noticed they drop out more often when the battery is low. Sometimes they drop out so badly they won't reconnect without resetting them.

If this fixes the controller dropouts I'm sold. I'll try to pick one up tonight. It was my only real complaint with the SIXAXIS and why it could be called SUXAXIS. Like the article says the newer PS3's probably didn't have this problem due to a better bluetooth antenna but who knows for sure.

In the store or in the web browser?
Streaming a trailer from the PSN store is old. I think streaming a trailer off the web is new, minus flash videos of course.

I dunno how may other people have this problem but it seems like every time I pick up my wii controllers (Once every couple of months) I have to change the battery! The controllers kill the batteries from no use.

Yeah I noticed that too. Its odd why all their other videos didn't have such a giant black bar. Another thing they don't show is a lot of dark scenes since these are the scenes most heavily affected by the setting. The dark scenes they do show aren't the same. And why no capture with Full RGB off? It looks to me like they're specifically trying to make the user not notice a difference. It's all on how they spin it. This is complete damage control. I wouldn't be surprised if they tweak...

Just cause it has 2 frame buffers doesn't mean those pixels are used for extra resolution or added clarity. In fact they're just using it to implement fp16 HDR. It's almost like saying a 60fps game has twice the resolution as a 30fps game.

He may be lying about having one and it being broken but doubt it.. I can vouch for some of them not centering. I'm sure you could google it if you don't believe us. I personally don't own one but have used a friends. His first one did not center properly and there is not way to calibrate it. He had to return it to get another one that did center properly. The wheel does not calibrate like Logitech's wheel at the start where it turns all the way one way then the other so it knows where ...

I hope this doesn't mean they lowered their build quality even more. It's already been known to not center properly, start smoking and be a bit loose. I wish I could use my Logitech Driving Force Pro on the 360.
They should at least release a bundle with the full Forza 2. That would finally get me to buy it.

@WilliamRLBaker
I'm guessing you either A. have a crappy TV. B. Don't actually patch your PS3. C. You care more about aesthetics than quality.

If it's A. then I understand why you think the PS3 is a crappy dvd player. Its interface if you don't have the stand alone remote isn't that great. Although I don't understand why you'd want to use a ps2 over a ps3 since their menus are the same.

However ever since 1.8 on a HD TV the PS3's DVD playback quality is ...

FCC won't crackdown cause there's nothing the 360 is doing wrong in their eyes. Any device that broadcasts a signal is going to cause interference in the spectrum its broadcasting in. It's up to the other devices to cope with it.. If Microsoft wants to change their proprietary protocol to be more wifi friendly thats up to them.

Why do all the xbox fan boys have their panties in a knot? This is article is just saying it looks like the 360 is causing some 802.11 wifi interfe...

I wonder if this is why my PS3 controllers sometimes loose connection. I know the PS3 currently just uses a standard Bluetooth 2.0 protocol but its the only console that drops controller connections also. They really need to fix this.. Anyone experience this problem with the new 40Gb model? I know their antennas are different than the 60Gb model. Next time I have a long PS3 gaming session I'll try unplugging the 360 first to see if that helps.

@razer - The FCC just regula...
