You realize the films and tv shows from netflix are streamed, right?
and the 360 has an hd download service IN ADDITION to netflix...
the two are incomparable...streamed media versus disc media is not a fair comparison...
We just need to check who we vote into office. If they pass legislation we don't like, we'll have to vote them out the next turn.
But, yes, on the whole this is very, very disturbing news.
They'll spin it like "new technology to stop hackers" when really it stops ALL OF US.
Don't they have more important things to police? Like bunnies and dingos?
Is your period key broken?
pretty much
I'm just wondering how much it will cost per month.
Let me know when they release that news...
I'm not sure I entirely understand the problem at hand.
I'm in a party chat. If I die I can talk to my teammates. How does that give me an advantage? It's not like I can see the enemies, right? Or can I? If I remember cod4, I can only spectate on my own team. If I'm talking to my team, that doesn't seem like much of an advantage. If I'm talking to the enemy, then, sure, that's a distinct advantage. But only supreme dorks would do that...Seriously people.
I...
Wow, more waiting. Go figure.
Back when I was complaining that there was nothing to do in home, people kept saying, "Just go around and talk to each other. It's not a GAME."
Now I can't even go around and talk to people. There is officially nothing to do in home, now...Thanks sony!
BTW, there is (and has been) an option to turn OFF voice chat to all those who didn't like it. I'm not sure why those people complaining didn't just turn it off, instead of waiting for sony to remove it fo...
Forget multiplat. I'd say most people only own one console anyway, so multiplat doesn't really matter to begin with.
I'm more concerned that all but ONE of those title is a sequel. Why is it that every game I play now has a number in the title?
I want more left for deads and little big planets, please. I've had enough numbered releases...
So I got this game used at gamestop with one of their buy 2, get one free deals a few months ago (I also got bioshock and GTA4 if you were wondering).
I had to see what all the fuss was about.
Now, maybe I'm crazy (and apparently I am since this game is winning tons of awards now), but I have no idea what I'm doing. The 'game' went on for about an hour before I even touched a controller. Conservatively, I'd say out of the three hours I've played the game, I've on...
145 out of my 423 movies on my NF queue are on BR. Only 13 are listed as anything other than 'now' under availability.
No DUH that new releases are in higher demand and have worse availability. This is nothing new.
Netflix is NOT a good option for people merely wanting to rent one or two new releases a month. They will be better served going to a brick and mortar store.
However, weirdos like me who rent tons of foreign and indie movies get a LOT of u...
"this kind of rape?"
I wasn't aware you could rape people in playstation home. Is that a special emoticon you have to hit? Which menu is it under?
I don't think this writer knows exactly how netflix works. This is nothing new to veteran subscribers.
The movie companies pretty much lease their movies to the streaming companies (all of them, not just NF). When the lease expires, the movie either disappears or gets re-upped for another certain amount of time. That's all it is...
I suppose if sony actually gave us something to do while in Home, people wouldn't have to run around and hump on all the sitting avatars...
What do people expect? It's a virtual world...It's like nobody's ever played second life.
Except in second life, I can type "hello" to people without it showing up "****o".
You mean like the two years they've had in development. Isn't that enough time to get it right?
I agree it looks promising. In fact, last November when I bought my ps3, I pretty much got it because my buddy showed me the home trailer and I thought it looked awesome.
After i got in and around last night, not so much.
What was the point of the closed beta if it's going to take even longer now to get content up there?
i agree.
Once I got into home, I realized my apartment kind of sucked so I went to the mall where half the stores were closed and everything cost real money...I guess my apartment will remain boring.
Then I went to the bowling alley. Played pool for about 5 mins, then got over that. Never got to try bowling or the arcade because everything was always taken.
Nobody had mics, so I was just wondering around, holding down R2, hoping to find someone to ta...
Then you'd actually have something to do in home.
Why on earth would you want that?
