One thing is for sure. If your secret weapon is an issue on which people are divided then it is hardly a secret weapon.
It is like having a gun that only fires half the time and you can't predict which time. It is also like having a knockout girlfriend that only has one tit.
360 will have a great year? Wait, the same guy just said Vista was a great OS for gaming. Whew, I forgot it is yard time for the inmates in the psychiatric ward.
Engadget is part of the same people that own Joystiq. If they aren't funded by MS they at least act like it. They turn and burn on Sony at every chance. Take the recent story where Shelling from Konami slammed those 360 MGS4 rumors. Did they report it like that? No that started with it's a cover because they are going to do it anyway blah blah blah. Yet take the same type of rumors and a game that will actually run o...
"Buy a 360 for use as a STB" Yeah, when your console has already started to show it's age and limitations as a gaming console, find another use...like a doorstop.
Also Zune is the Billy Carter of the Microsoft family. The sooner they cut that freak away the better MS will be.
EDIT: @tester - The PS3 isn't showing signs of outdated design limitations. There is a big difference between trying to sqeeze another ounce of horsepower out of a machine versus ...
No - the first was a launch 360 - that died and I have twice applied for a reimbursement check which MS has stated was sent months ago. The other two were refurbs sent to me - 1 was DOA and the other died 8 weeks later. I traded that in on my new HALO version which has now frozen during HALO 3 twice.
Dumbass, people do care. Just go to the forums at places like EvilAvatar and people are saying, that's it. I am getting a PS3 now. You say they don't care because Microsoft just took it in the shorts. prepare to love it becuae MS will license Bluray for their next console...and pay Sony a royalty fee on every one of them.
And if it had been HD DVD you would have been singing for joy...but it isn't...and you aren't. Suck it. Suck it up butter cup. Suck it hard and suck it long.
If Bloodmask is so up and up, ask them about trying to delete this story. I post a tip about this. Within 2 minutes it becomes a pending story. Then the pending story is deleted. A few minutes later this story pops up.
My original tip was with the link I posted above. This is BS. They kill a story they don't like.
They also kill it so they can find another source, tip it, and get the points for that. Bloodmask and his ilk aren't interested in news per se. He is ...
Whoever is trying to kill this news go fuk yourself. You delete a story that is proff positive? Screw you coward. You aren't stopping it. New Line says they are Bluray exclusive:
There wasn't a 500mil payoff you dumbass. Warner stated they would make their choice after looking at holiday sales. You don't deny 500 mil and have to explain to the SEC and the IRA where 500 mil suddenly came from. Idiots like you should stop beleiving a no name nackwater unnamed source written by an ezine doing a hit piece.
Warner cheated? You are so full of crap you little whiny fanboy. Sissies like you make me want to puke.
Here is the best part. Even by the time next next gen consoles hit the market, digital downloads won't be up to snuff. Basically you will still need items in disk form. You still won't be able to go over to a friend's house, even 3 years from now and say, "Hey, I own this game or movie. Let's download it to your console in 3 minutes and play it."
THE STORY JUST CHANGED ON THE USA TODAY WEBSITE. IT IS NOW OFFICIAL:
NEW YORK/LOS ANGELES2008-01-04 20:22:49 GMT (Reuters) (Reuters) — Time Warner's Warner Bros. studio Friday said it would exclusively release high-definition DVDs in Sony Corp's Blu-ray format, dealing a big blow to Toshiba Corp's rival HD DVD technology.
Warner Bros, Hollywood's biggest seller of DVDs, representing about 18 to 20% of sales in the United States, was one of the few studios that backed bot...
