Agreed. That's why I had to laugh when I saw this. It's like everyone forgot that Google bought Doubleclick. I remember reading the article in my NY Times. They have the largest share of Ad revenue and without a merger of some sort, Yahoo would have continued to dwindle behind Google. Competition is always good, even if it's between two Big Corporations.

Nah. If anything the 360 lead gives them more of a reason to stay in the market as they showed that Sony is actually beatable(due to their stupidity "They'll but it no matter what" here lookin at you). Add in the fact they gained a profit the past quarters and I would say there's almost a 100% chance they stay in the market, which I would prefer because competition is healthy for the gaming market. We've all seen what happens when there is no competition(Madden I love you but damn t...

Well there was already a Halo book(Fall of reach) and it was pretty good. It basically tells you how the Master Chief became the Master Chief.

Yeah I really can't remember the last time I used anything other than google for my searches. And Firefox is definitely tops.

Interesting. As much as I like google they have some serious balls to call that bid troubling. It was troubling when they bought Doubleclick while they already lead in ad revenue. Nonetheless I look forward to the competition from a merged Yahoo-MSN and Google.

Didn't everyone already expect these games to come out? If so then how are they top secret? That being said i'm definitely picking up Gears of War 2.

good point. The PS1 got quite a few people into gaming and as a result many waited for the PS2 while not buying another system.

A 100 megs difference? I'll admit the 6mb of cache is great but is this a major breakthrough?

Yeah I figured if the Elite was so hot they would ramp up production to meet demand. By not doing so it can only hurt their sales not help them.

Keep waiting because i'm pretty sure you won't see one anytime soon. Why break from your breadwinners?

How many times has it been said the Wii will fade? I've lost count already. As much as I wanted the Wii to not have the level of success it has, I no longer believe it will fade. If it hasn't happened by now and people are still waiting to buy the console then when? The only way I can see this happening is if both the 360 and PS3 drop to the same price as the Wii and even then I don't see it because they draw from too different pools of gamers(Wii= Mainstream 360/PS3= Hardcore and some mainst...

I think the PS3 will lead 2008 and will see a significant raise in software sales. I also think it'll do better here in the US but I think the 360 will probably move more units if the price of the PS3 stays the same and they drop the price of the 360. Worldwide I think Sony will build upon their momentum from the end of 2007 and widen the lead in sales.

I stopped being a fan of gaming back in '95 but to say that console gaming is killing PC gaming is naive. There are some PC gamers who won't just migrate solely to consoles. Truthfully I don't think PC gaming will every die.

So you're hating on MS because they came out with an OS when there were no other good alternatives? XP is a great OS and many people are extremely happy with it. I'm guessing you favor Mac OS which is fine but don't hate on MS because they had a smart business model(even if it was a borderline monopoly).

Plunge to destruction? Have you seen their latest earnings report? If you haven't you should look at it.

6582d ago 0 agree1 disagreeView comment

I read the rumors but I honestly didn't think they would make a formal proposal. In any event it has to get the regulatory commissions and there is a slight chance of that happening. Go MS.

I really and truly hate seeing stories like this. MS is a sinking ship ship though it posted a couple of billion dollars in profit for the 4Q 2007? Are you serious? How can a company that makes that much money and has that strong of a stranglehold on the PC be failing? Vista is a little buggy but nowhere near as bad as people say it is. I ran vista on my 2 year old laptop fine and it hasn't crashed yet. Never mind the fact that it still has pretty good sales. And Mac's have little to do with ...

As would I. Everyone knows hardcore gamers won't be pushed aside by casual gamers because they simply don't buy as games as hardcore gamers.

In order to get it down to that size you've got to sacrifice something...why not performance
