I just can't see team-based missions in a GTA multiplayer setup. It seems to me like it would need to be every man for himself to live up to the type of game GTA is.
So there's no need for a recall. Microsoft is going to fix any of them that get the red lights. They're installing a better heat handling system in the refurbs and they're working on more reliable hardware. I don't know what else can be done.
You guys may think you want to see Microsoft lose, but Microsoft is the only thing that's going to force developers to make quality games for the PS3. This competition is necessary, so why don't we all grow up and look at it reasonably?
But it is taking dollars away from Microsoft and Sony. The last thing that Sony and Microsoft need to do is underestimate Nintendo. The cash it is squeezing out of the Wii, along with the company's solid focus on gaming, could spell trouble for the other players before they know what hits them. Sony pulled the one-two punch on Nintendo two generations ago. Don't think that they didn't learn a lesson.
Sounds like a site full of fanboys with hurt feelings.
You have to wait for the rest.
But they are so expensive. It's silly to argue over which format is the best. As a consumer I want to be able to play any movie I want and not worry about having to have seperate players for each. I wish that these two camps could come together somehow and introduce a common format. Either that or one of them needs to go away. This is one instance where competition is not good for the consumer.
And how well is the PS3 doing against the PS2? That's just so lame.
Most people buy their consoles in retail stores. I know if I'm going to pay that kind of cash I want to carry it home with me.
All of the games are still going to be there later. No sense making a rush decision.
Anyone who wishes for another gamer's console of choice to die is a moron.
To release such a cool little box and not have anything good to do with it is a travesty.
Water is wet and the sky is blue. iPhone is the thing right now.
The average consumer doesn't care about all of the techie features of the console. They just want it to do what they say it will do, and they will pay as little as they can for it. Personally, I don't think an 80gb version with a game is all that compelling, and the average consumer won't either. I would bet that the 60 gb version is going to be more popular while it is available, but it is eventually going to disappear in favor of the 80 gb version.
No matter how you spin it, getting 5 free movies that you probably wouldn't have purchased anyway is not taking $100 off of what you spent. That $100 is still gone. I can't believe that people fall for that marketing spin.
What you're forgetting to put in your speculation is a possible price cut by Microsoft. If that happens all you said just goes right out the window. And 20gb is not likely coming back. The only thing that Sony can do is to get some good games into players' hands.
The $100 also gets you a $60 game. So it's really only $40 for 20gb.
But that's still a little sketchy in the value department.
Overloading an outlet like that is going to burn his house down one of these days. My stuff is all plugged into a top-of-the-line Monster power cleaner and surge protector. No problems in 14 months of using it.
You really need to make sure that what you say is accurate. I don't know of any PC's that use a triple-core RISC CPU and a custom GPU.
Too bad Sega nearly went broke from Sony outspending them, because the Dreamcast had some really good games.
The 5 free movies, and Memento if you think about it, aren't really movies that most people are lining up to buy. Getting them for the sake of having them doesn't actually save anyone any money. And it isn't even Sony offering up the discs.
So honestly that deal doesn't negate anything.
