imo, only the ppl that are looking to buy and not having to worry about upgrading the HDD themselves would probably be the main consumers of a 80GB sku.
AGREED. btw, love that avatar pic :) i bet POG thinks it has "coodies". lol
that DONT brick systems.... yeah you dont get these bdduy. not with your GREEN eyes. you DO get your RED lights. what with the most recent GUITAR HERO patch. lol. you keep trying all you want. it's VERY obvious to evreybody that you are uninformed when you bash. get the eff outta here... kiddo.
you mean mostly darkness? to hide how dirty their color palette is?
play Gears and then play Resistance, both offline campaign. what do you notice?
-Gears: awesome textures, good gameplay, WEAK campaign. 2nd gen. game.
-Resistance: good textures, good gameplay, GREAT campaign. launch game.
heres's why: in Gears, all the details were put into making it the BEST looking game there is ATM. and Unreal Engine is great because EPIC has been working on it for 2-3yrs. BEFORE next gen consoles came out. Resistance, visual detail no...
elite 360= 479
Live account= 49
new game= 59
+8.25% tax = $635
wow, that's a whopping $79 difference. wow. yeah.
think of it as $79 for BluRay. or: unlocked USB ports, flash card hub, WiFi, etc. etc. etc.... btw, MS is bad for forcing consumers to buy proprietary accesories= NO real options. they're cornering ppl with their 360 like they are with Windows.
what are you talking about? you must not be in the US 'cause there's no $800 PS3. don't try to justify that with crap like: you have to buy a headset. you have to buy a controller. you have to buy HDMI cables.
headsets can be had for under $20, and many ppl already have them for their cell phones. extra conrollers? well, you'd buy an extra one too for you 360 right? wait, you'd also have to buy a play and charge kit, and most likely another battery pack. you can get HDMI cable...
because you will want/need it in the near future, believe it or not. and, so you won't have to buy extra add-ons in the future. also, so you won't have to purchase another box to get the latest components.
gee, why DID they decide to release the Elite 360?
HD capacity, HDMI for a digital 1080p signal, and the the the shiny black. dude, this post and your other one that i got you on makes you seem VERY blind to the facts. i think it's time for an EYE implant. LOL. if it were up to me, i'd deliver the blow to level out your eyes. LOL. as for online gaming, playing games online is playing games online. you're either online or you're not. 360 got the + for implementing a better inter...
"it's a replacement for cable/directTV/etc." IPTV is hardly going to be in a position to do that, yet.
from a March '07 GI mag: "Enabling this functionality through your 360 will require that you already have service with one of Microsoft's telco partners. Currently, AT&T is the only confirmed company onboard, and its compatible U-verse service is only available in five states at the moment."
"...requires your provider to have a fiber...
somewhat. i own a PS3. i like what it's capable of now and whats coming down the line for it. but, i also plan on getting a 360. why? only because i have buddies who i play Gears with on their 360's. i didn't like the offline, but online with my buddies is the sh!t. no better way to get tactical than being in the same room. LOL.
btw, we do weekend Gears most saturdays. look for Madtweaked and tenzo1. i'm not sure on the correct tag for tenzo, but find Madtweaked and you'll find...
got PWNED^^^^^
matter of fact, i've seen you jump on PS3 threads with your kind words.
sure it's a long post. but, posts like that from ppl like him are good. they lay things out so ppl can see the big picture. posts like that can be helpful to the uninformed bashers. i and many others have had to point out alot of things about the PS3 to bashers who don't even take the time to look up before bashing it.
but, are you saying that if 360 came with a built in HDDVD drive, that you wouldn't be buying HDDVD's to make full use of it?
i'm going to use that for my avatar phrase on my PS3. LOL
sure the cars aren't the best looking, but they look better than first release racers, ie PGR and RR7. and the cityscape looks great.
i got a wife. you know, someone i can play with at ANY GIVEN TIME. btw, PS3 target demographic is ppl who make GOOD DECENT $$$. in their mid to late 20's to early 30's. i'm one of them.
this trick applies to baiting ppl from both sides, tsk tsk tsk
BUt, didnt the PS2 get a price drop shortly within 1 year also? if what you say is really kosher, how about the personal electronic device market in general? you saying you gonna betch about price drops and demand a reimbursement? ....didn't think so. that's how the market works.
