You know, I think I may just have fond the reason so many 360’s are over heating. Some times when a game is loading you get a disk read error with the 360, which is a problem in it self. But the thing is every time the 360 thinks it is about to get a disk read error (you can kind of hear it) it first turns the fan off.(this you can definitely hear) The big problem is that some times the game does not get a disk read error but it just keeps playing (with the fan off) now I knew about the overh...

Have not played the game so can’t comment on that aspect (though it seems pretty cool to me)

I think this clearly demonstrates what’s wrong with the media.
How can you have free press when companies finance add campaigns on a site that is supposed to give an honest and unbiased review about the product being sponsored…

Now I often find my self completely disagreeing with the reviews on gamespot just look up the review of Scratches (which is a great game). ...

I am a Final fantasy 7 fan whore I think it is the greatest game ever made.
And so I disagreeing with you with a heavy heart.
But I must point out that some parts of FF7 can be extremely repetitive in most zones you get to fight the same enemies over and over again. And though there are plenty of enemies to mix it up a little once you get to a high enough lvl you can pretty much kill everything with one strike. Which negates the amount of diverse enemies.

minor spoiler (actually minor is probably an overstatement) but just in case.

Unfortunately I agree with this review. I kept hoping the with ever passing assassination they would have me kill the next one in a different way. I even tried to do it more stealthy only to get frustrated that there really was only one way to kill everybody… it would have been way cooler if they made it a little more like Hitman that you could kill one of the guards and then kill your victim with a b...

It is sad that when an Industry dominated by the male persuasion finally has a woman in charge to have that woman being defiled in this manner. And worse still to have some people say it is here own fault…

I don’t know if suing was a good Idea but I wanted to know what all the commotion was about so I looked for the comic in question and I cant seem to find it any where.
So maybe the did take the right course of action. Surly the commotion will die down soon and most o...

Ha smart move, a lot of Boll Bashers out there are going to buy this game solely to torture and kill boll :P
I don’t care much for his movies although Postal seems good.
I must give him props for doing both this and making fun of himself in his postal movie.
Hope he keeps making comedies instead of “serious” stuff like Alone in the dark. He seems to be better at it.

I don’t know if the Father is just trying to get Money out if MS but I do think he has a point.
I don’t have a credit card so I used my dads (with is consent).
When I wanted to buy Geometry wars I asked for his credit card because I assumed I would have to do it manually.
But I found out that the credit card numbers where still in the console and I didn’t need his card any more. If I wanted I could buy all the games in XBA without my dad even knowing it until he gets a ...

It’s things like this that really make me loss faith in Humanity...
But then having people send the kid a 360 and donate money to him kind of makes up for it.

I really am puzzled at behaviour like this.
What goes trough there heads when they first think about doing it?
Is it like what Brad pitt says in Seven do they one day just look in the mirror and say: “it is amazing how f@cked up I am”

What I would like to see is a way to transfer my mp3’s on to my 360 with out having to burn them on a CD first… now I consume 3 times the amount of power because I need to have my PC turned on to listen to music…

I think the update for Europe will be the upgraded Marketplace America already has.
And America will get something Cooler and Europe will once again feel like the Basted child of the Entertainment world.
I hope they proof me wrong…

I hope either we all get the same or Europe Finally gets something the rest of the world wont have, like being able to download BBC programs for free or something. (probably not)

andy001 –
If you think gamers that have a high gamer score have no life, shouldn’t you be proud that you supposedly have a low score instead of being embarrassed by it???
Or perhaps you have a high score and that’s what you are embarrassed about? :P
Why would you care if people can see it or not? You are kind of contradicting your self there… but what ever…

I heard he loved movies like full metal jacket and apocalypse now.
Why would that have any less effect on him then games would.
Not saying that games or movies had anything to do with this nut case killing people but it begs the question why are people like jack Thomson always only after games…

I don’t care what it is as long as its not Alan Wake.
when I still wanted to buy a PS3 I was so pissed that suddenly it was only being made for the 360 en now I have one of those so it would really piss me off if it gets cancelled.

having said that though, I actually don’t for a second belief its Alan Wake.

I wont delve in to whether this is true or not. But I will say I have had to put up with some ridicules situations on helpdesks and costumer services so I don’t think even if this isn’t true that any body can say 100% sure this is a lei.

If the head of the costumer service was told to try and save money (which is pretty likely) then some dumb person would come up with bull like this to not have to replace something.

"it’s also difficult to say how much money the company will make by continuing to sell profitable PS2 hardware throughout this Christmas and beyond."

That almost makes it sound like they scraped BC because maybe otherwise people would buy a ps3.
But if they buy a ps3 now to play ps2 games on an wait for something good to come on ps3 then Sony would lose more money then if they just sell a ps2.

It is said that MS was dumb for scraping xbox support s...

After all the replies me and Laxe have given you is it really a wonder that the Playstation 3 is doing as bad in Europe as it is?
Like I said before, all Sony had to do to not make me buy a playstation 3 is give me the feeling that I was not being screwed over.(which they did)
I can only guess how many more gam...

I think the point many European gamers are making(at least I am) is that much to often Europeans are being treated like an unimportant region. I really don’t see how you can say we are inpatient. I would like to see how North America would react if they would have to put up with only a fraction of what Europe as put up with. We are always the last to get pretty much everything and I think this out cry clearly shows that we are sick of it.

We wait longer we pay more and we get l...

I was practically raised by my playstation 1 and 2.
It took me a long time to finally come to the conclusion that Sony was screwing Europe over.
I always had hope that they would make up for not releasing the ps3 Globally, taking out the emotion chip of the European ps3’s making backwards compatibility harder and scrapping any effort to advance the emulation software in the firmware updates. (now there is no backwards compatibility at all in the 40GB versions).
But these ...
