Also, I just found this rather nice link:

Have a read. You may be surprised to learn that this whole "Black Screen of Death" thing is FUD.
I can honestly say I don't care which console gets it first. If you only own one of the two, it makes little difference to you. If you own both, you have to wait for it to come out on both before you can properly compare them. Other than that, the purpose of the demo is to see if you want to buy the game or not.
Loving all the haters here. Lets get some facts straight:
This problem relates to an UPDATE for the system, not the system itself. So all you saying that this proves Windows 7 is bad are idiotic. How many times have we seen the PS3 have issues after certain updates? Does that mean the PS3, as a whole, is bad? No, it means something in the update was bad, not the original OS/Hardware/Whatever.
Furthermore, there's a LOT of Windows 7 users out there. A lot. It overtook...
Because multiplats don't count, right?
What a ridiculous conclusion. Show me a game that HASN'T leaked at least a week before release!
@Icyhot that would be true if everything else Bungie made crashed and bombed, but since they've only made Halo Games for the past decade, how can you honestly say it's all they are good at? See what happens when they release something new and different before saying something like that.
Guessing you two didn't read the article? This isn't a CONSOLE bundle, it's just an accessory bundle (Wireless adapater, media remote and some Live Gold/Points).
Here's a hint: Read the article before commenting on it.
I bet if you looked at the number of reported incidents of RROD (Or YLOD for that matter) and the games "associated" with having caused them, there's probably a similar percentage of users every single time.
I.E. if Game X sells 100 copies and 10 people report it causing the RROD, then Game Y sells 1000 copies and 100 people report RROD, does it mean Game Y is causing the RROD? No, it just means with more copies of the game floating around, more individual errors are as...
I've seen a LOT of people get banned and every single one of them had their console modified in some way. I have yet to see a single, legitimate claim of an unmodified console being banned.
Sure, MS are a bit of a prick about it if you complain to them about getting banned, but there's a reason for this - you probably DID modify your console. It's against the T&Cs of Live and you got banned for it. It sucks, sure, but that's how it is.
There's no "ugly" truth here, M...
You only need sky multiroom for the LIVE channels. We have a standard Sky subscription with the movie channels (no multiroom) and we can watch all of the films on the player for free. It's pretty awesome, found myself using it quite a bit.
Dino Crisis was Epic, Dino Crisis 2 was epic, but a completely different kind of game from the first one. I'd be happy with a sequel made in the guise of either, or a remake in the guise of the FIRST game (i.e. more survival horror with puzzles and less RE5-action-action-action).
But by no means the first console to have more than one CPU in it. The Saturn comes to mind. Even the DS has two Processors inside it (an ARM7 and an ARM9, for those interested).
"Sony does not use old tech for their consoles, unlike some other console makers."
No, they use fancy, exotic technology that makes it a pain to develop for. Sure, you can put the effort in and get some great results, but you get the same results from the "old tech" the other console maker uses at considerably less effort (and therefore cost). Think the only reason so many devs jumped on the 360 was because MS bribed them? Don't be so silly, the 360 being a do...
I love how there isn't a SINGLE 360 exclusive in that list.
Just keep in mind that, just like Xbox Live, you can have multiple accounts on the one console. Mine has 3 and I know I'm not alone.
I'm not trying to say anything bad about Sony here, it's still a hell of an achievement and Sony should be proud, I'm just pointing out that 31million accounts doesn't necessarily mean 31million users. How many of those accounts have even been logged into in the last 12 months?
BEST RESIDENT EVIL GAME OF THEM ALL!!!!!!
(Including RE4).
I'll say here what I said in the other thread -
BEST RESIDENT EVIL GAME OF THEM ALL! And that includes RE4!
I never said Halo was above and beyond other PC games of the time, re-read what I said - it did a lot for CONSOLE FPS games. Yes, Goldeneye was fantastic at the time, but Halo brought Multiplayer FPS to the mainstream in a way that Goldeneye never could. You're right, they made it easier to pick up and play, they got the controls down, you say that like it isn't just a big deal but the fact that thousands of people still play Halo and most people have moved on from Goldeneye should show just ...
What's this? EA suddenly got Greedy? I am absolutely SHOCKED!
