Waiting till summer 2007 BLOWS HARD !!
But I will still pick it up
... is a bigger Hard Drive.
Can you hear us MS ....??
:-)
NEVER hurt me before. No reason why they will hurt me now.
My headset is fine. Works fantastic and bought it the day it came out.
DUDE ... return it for another one !!!
BTW, the WIRELESS headset does NOT PLUG INTO THE CONTROLLER at all. The only thing it PLUGS into is the charger.
I picked up all three (Sneak King, Mini Bike Racer, and Big Bumpin")
FOr the 4 or 5 dollars you pay .. they are pretty cool.
I thought for sure now that BOTH the PS3 and 360 were out the Fanboys would STFU for a while.
Guess not !!!
60gig MACHINE ONLY got $1800
20gig MACHINE ONLY got $1500
And I only showed up at the Mall with the Sony store at 4am .. only one hour before the mall opened.
IT WAS NICE !!!
Some folks in this world are TOTALLY INSANE !!!
I feel very bad for the victim, and also the other folks in line that probably had the CRAP fall right out of them when they knew what was happening.
FOR REAL ... what is the world coming to ??
..but I tell you one thing, when we were at FS and BB's later that day ..... 360's were flying out the doors.
My brother in law who used the money he made on the PS3 to buy one of the killer 360 bundles (premium system with GRAW, GOW, XBLU, RR6) for only $450 canadian had a hard time finding one. We had to hit 4 FS stores to finally get one.
We did the same type of run-in her in Canada (Ottawa) at the sony store without an issue.
Actually worked out well, I was a bit worried but all was fine.
And we only had "4"
Arrived at the Sony store at 4am after a nice nights sleep and pizza and beer the just before getting some shut eye and setting my alarm.
As it turns out ... did end up getting a 60gig PS3 at the Sony store in the Redeau Centre. Only had four, open front pharmacy door and OC door and you had to RUN LIKE A MAD MAN to the sony store. Got the 2nd place in line and that meant a 60gig PS3,
So at 5am they handed out the cards with the numbers from one to four.
...
had my 2nd place ticket for my console (since my Pre-Order did not come in) and was offered $1800 right then and there for my spot and my little 2nd place ticket.
yeah could have made more on Ebay, but for ZERO hastle, guess what ..
" S O L D "
$1800 bills in a nice little Bank Envelope.
And I got a call from my cousin at the Walmart who confirmed when he got is 20gig so I let folks waiting around know I was taking...
Well let's just say this .... if you are a person in my case ... that to get your PC up to snuff you would FOR SURE have to dump more money into it than you would for a 360 , the 360 may very well be a better choice.
I don't count trees or frames per second, I can only go by what I see and experience during game play. And with my 360 on a 67" Samsung 1080p DLP set ..... I "REALLY" like what "I" see.
To get the same game experience from "MY ...
Buddy, if you are trying to TALK ME INTO going back to a PC because it is so much better .... you are wasting your breath.
I will not try to convert you, so don't try to convert me !!
My PC game days are done for a while. The 360 to me is a killer machine with killer graphics and I have no desire to hope back onto my 19" monitor with my 67" set and my nice HT setup only a hallway away.
No more reading the side of the box for spec...
.... and so will the PS3.
One thing I know for sure is "I HATE C-NET REVIEWS"
I would pick a fist full of other tech sites to look at for info and reviews over C-Net
All I know is my PC is a 3.2ghz machine with 2 gig of RAM and a 256 meg 9800xt Pro Radeon and my 360 wiped the floor with my PC as far as games and smooth play are concerned.
My PC would not even run Fear unless I REALLY DUMBED DOWN pretty much everything. But my 360 runs it FULL BORE.
So compare what you want ..... my 360 is the better machine for games BY A LONG SHOT.
My 360 has NO OTHER HEAVY TASKS other than do one main function ... PLAY GAMES ... and ...
I do not have left or right ... I have top and bottom pics
WHich one is the lighter one and which one is the darker one ??
The CD ripping is a nice feature.
A native 1080p set will handle the 1080i signal MUCH MUCH BETTER since it's native resolution is the full 1920x1080.
The less conversion or scalling that has to be done ... the better. And fact is the 360 takes the 1080i game .. THE 360 does the upscale work and feed the HDTV a 1080p signal and the TV has to do NO WORK since the 360 has already done it.
==========
1080i, the former king of the HDTV hill, actually boasts an identical 1,920x1,080 resolu...
.. where is the kill cam ????? MUST HAVE !!
ALso, to play a private match with friends, the lobby system in COD2 is much better.
Just escape back to lobby without needing to kick or kill the game, make changes, start again.
