HOLY F! Those are some good deals...we need Play.com over here across the pond! Nice finds man.
Educate yourself Traveler and open your eyes...here is a repost of something I posted somewhere else in reference to Sony failure rates in comparison to M$'s.
"Funny how some fail to mention the %'s where still within an acceptable industry standard. The only reason why it "seemed" like a lot is because
2-3% of 125 Million is 2.5-3.75 Million ~ PS2
33+% of 24 Million is 8 Million+ ~ 360
Now that 33% is also a false number as e...
720p native locked @ 30FPS...on a side note if you go to the PS forums and read what Seb (a KZ2 dev) wrote in reply to a question set by a poster he himself plays at 1080p instead of 720p.
Whether or not you agree with what I said is not of a concern to me as the fact is what I said is um well FACT. What I do find funny is how you jump on me but not the original poster for his egregious comments...
I'm already on my way with 2 PS3's an Obutto Race Chassis & a Logitech G25! Though in all honesty I wouldn't go all out like in the article (FFS the projector is $$$$)...I'll be happy with what the PS3 can do now & what the PS4 along with Polyphony Digital has to offer when that day comes ;).
So what you are saying is it's okay for M$ to offer some money to RESTRICT content being available for the PS3 but when Sony does it the other way around it's "bad"... Huh ~ definition = double standard.
Lol, I understand...I'm still trying to trade 5 Qore Episode CODES (not game shares) for a K2 Beta Code!
Yep. You'll be waiting for those movies on the 360 F-O-R-E-V-E-R...
Really? Care to show me where I have said that before? Mmmm...you can't, so how could I be "bringing it up every time"? Now who looks stupid? Just because YOU think it is irrelevant does not make it so. The original poster was talking about how M$ is doing in "their gaming business to be healthy and profitable..." and I was discussing THEIR GAMING BUSINESS to show it really isn't. OPEN YOUR EYES or SHUT YOUR MOUTH because you just don't want to hear it.
How's that 4 billion loss on the original Xbox doing along with the 1+ Billion in 360 RROD fixes going? Please...open your eyes & if not shut your mouth.
I just caught my 3rd RROD/RLOD but whatever, I was gifted the 360 when it got it's 1st hardware fault and I fixed it for all of about $3.08 and just spent another .04 cents to fix it again. But that is the extent of what I would spend on this POS, seriously. It's funny though how MS consistently gets away with such a business model...I mean, think about it
1) M$ is known for crappy business ethics (stealing others ideas)
2) M$ is known for crappy broken software (just about...
Really? Is it THAT hard to tilt the controller down slightly to access the keybad? Nope. Not a big deal.
Amazon states "This item will be released on December 15, 2008" ~ http://www.amazon.com/Plays...
Glad I pre-ordered mine when it was on sale ;)
While I can agree that ascetically it would look better at the bottom it does not matter. It would work just the same...To confirm this, all that anyone with a PS controller has to do is tilt the controller down slightly to access the keypad. Simple. No big deal.
That's appreciated mint royale, you don't see a lot of that online (especially here) nowadays! Bubbles for your apology.
So know the new word is ignorance? Okay, here goes.
"So you mean that when microsoft said they shipped 22.5 million to retailers at the end of september you think they count rrod's in the number?"
It's not about retailers, shipped/sold, September or whatever. You don't seem to understand what is being said. M$ touts their numbers as if ALL 360's sold to the public are WORKING. Plain simple math...out of X amount of broken RROD/RLOD 360's there is undoubtedl...
For someone who speaks of being "old enough" you have VERY poor reading comprehension and writing structure...seriously, your "and university" comment is sorely misplaced and makes no sense in it's wording. But whatever, on to your overall mistaken comment. If you RE-READ this line
"MS lies about 360 SALES and counts RRoD REPLACEMENT for SALES"
You will see nothing about NEW being mentioned. Only the fact M$ counts BROKEN consoles as WOR...
DING DING DING Itrguy001! Someone give this man a prize (you are the third one to win as opf late ;) lol). That is absolute truth but you wont see "certain people" admitting or agreeing with you on that point!
Yuor going by GameTrailers as your source?!?! It's okay, you keep thinking that...when the game drops in Feb and you see ACTUAL HD screen grabs you will undoubtedly regret what you said (especially your lack of knowledge of the PS3's ram being a hindrance).
But I'll help a little ~ this is a good 720p HD cam grab. Be sure to download and NOT stream.

I was going to say the same thing ViceKingz...I do have something to add though, using some of PP's flawed logic how would he explain those PS3's in households of multiple children/family members then? Wouldn't a family with say a 30 something year old Father who is a gamer with say 3 kids all with their own accounts STILL COUNT as INDIVIDUALS? Whatever. There really no point in discussing (more like arguing) with someone who states his OPINIONATED "rough estimates" as "fact&qu...
