Why would I want to spend 3 - 4 hours downloading a movie when I can buy it from a shop in 30 minutes?

I guess I could leave it on overnight or when I'm at work, but what if I come back after 7 hours, check the status and find out that it stalled 14% of the way in?

Oh, and does this download include the alternative ending, extra scenes and blooper reel?

I think it's disgusting that women are exploited just so that an average game sells more units than it usually would.

Now if you'll excuse me I've got to go back to playing Assassin's Creed.

The Zune will fail in the UK for one reason: you still can't buy it over here.

(Ebay doesn't count)

You're right, your life is officially over. You should kill yourself without delay.

The news title is completely wrong, this makes it sound like Uncharted won't be released in Japan.

So there's no blood, so what?

Obviously I'm only joking. This is supposed to be an ongoing joke about the lack of content in the European store.

Think Giant Enemy Crab.

I think for the European store they should just redirect the browser to about:blank

Seriously guys, on the TheMART at Xboxkings' posts there's a red button and a green button. The red button decreases the number of comments he can post and the green button increases them.

Click the red button.

The next firmware update just needs to remove the information board. It's a POS anyway. The first time I used it, it jammed my PS3 solid and I had to hold the power button to turn it off.

Perhaps Sony could just rename it from "Information Board" to "Crash PS3"

They'd better sort out the camera that's all I can say. I never finished NG because the camera kept mucking around in the middle of a battle so I could never see Ryu and ended up getting my ass kicked by a boss.

Also, what's the point of choosing Continue if all it does is load up your previous save? I could have done that! Perhaps it could have checkpointed me at the boss (with the energy that I had etc) so I don't have to spend 15 minutes getting back to it only to die within...

Xvid is licensed under the GNU GPL, so Microsoft better make sure they've linked it properly otherwise 1000s of people are going to be demanding the source code for the 360 dashboard...

It seems a reasonable enough assumption.

When the PS1 first came out, most of the games had really crappy graphics.
When the PS2 first came out, most of the games had really crappy graphics, some worse than the final PS1 games.

Now people are complaining about the PS3's graphics, but as R&C and Drake's Fortune have shown, the graphics are steadily getting better.

Probably not, but that suits Sony fine as they can pass it off as a computer and avoid having to pay the stealth taxes that the government applies to entertainment units...

So, apart from pirated movies and porn, what else can Divx be used for?

Thanks fanboy.

Hopefully they'll just stick in an Easy Mode so that you can choose whether or not you want to play against the kid who has "Press down on the right analogue stick to perform the Final Atomic Buster"

Obviously Sega hasn't read the last book. The ending's good but I doubt many people actually get that far because it dissolves into random rubbish for half the book.

The second book's the best.

Wow, I bet Apple are quaking in their boots:

"Look! My Zune comes in cyan"
"So? I could get that done in a shop, my iPod has a touch sensitive screen"
"Oh, well erm, my Zune comes with a custom logo etched into it"
"And? I could take my iPod to a shop and have that done too. My iPod supports gapless playback so I can listen to albums the way they were supposed to be heard"
"Oh yeah, well, my Zune has 5 lin...

Sound advice:

1. Keep it in 2D
2. That's it
