and everyone said 2008 was the year of the PS3. Funny how things happen. M$ knows what there doing for the most part. Maybe that's why there in the black this month.
I agree! I have friends and family that just don't get into gaming as much as I do if at all but with Lips coming for the 360, my brother and his family might have to get a 360 just for that since they are huge karaoke fans along with all there friends around them. Just the shear fact that you can sing to your own DRM free music is HUGE with all the functionality of the game in tack!
Sure, I might not be into it but I don't feel like I was left out with whats coming out this fall...
either M$ or SONY could become the next casual gamers console of choice with the right games and experience and M$ just might have that this fall. Rip off or not, the casual games and avatars coming this fall look very appealing if you can step back from being all hard core and all and look at it from a casual gamer aspect.
Kids and families will have fun with making avatars, then taking them into games like the Wii does. Lips will defiantly score big with all the karaoke fans al...
is less time then a PS3 to copy only part of a game. It's mandatory for the PS3 on some games but not on the Xbox 360. The benefit for installing the game on the HDD for the 360 is no disk spin making it a whole lot quieter while playing a game (most of the time I don't here the drive anyway with bullets fling past my head) and less wear and tear on the drive with the many hours of playing a game. For the PS3, the Blu-Ray drive still spins durn a game since not all the info is on the drive.
GameStop's not selling the iPod as well are they? How can the Zune be up next on the chopping block just because GameStop wants out of a business model they shouldn't have gotten into the first place of selling MP3 players? I don't get it. From what I have heard from friends that have a Zune they love it.
if they are going to use that time and resources to make a more stable infrastructure and scale for the service then that is OK by me.
The biggest news is the change to the DRM policy and a tool that will be released next month that will allow 360 owners to re-license content to a single console—finally fixing the issue that forced gamers playing XBLA games to be connected to Xbox LIVE if their 360 broke down and was replaced. It will be interesting to see what happens when you t...
sure, right now you can quit out of the game but once more people figure out how to cheat and everyone is doing it like in HALO 2 then you will quit playing COD4 all together like a lot of people did with HALO 2.
The interesting thing with the cheat is in HALO 2 they could only cheat on the downloaded maps that are on the hard drive but it looks like they could cheat with any map on the PS3. Not good, that way they could eventually figure out how to cheat on any game and ruin ...
"For later this year and beyond, Xbox 360 customers can look forward to Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Banjo, Halo Wars, and Alan Wake."
Alan Wake could fall under the beyond, just hope Gears doesn't.
not as much of a pain as what UBISOFT did with Vegas 2. The day Vegas 2 came out there was two new maps to download or unlock making half the people that don't have a brain cell not have them and be kicked from the game when switched to either map. To download one of the maps you had to sign up and link your gamer tag with UBISOFT, the other you had to get the cheat code to unlock the map already on the disc in the first place. Hopefully developers will see this is a failure and not do this c...
Dude I know it's frustrating to be an Xbox 360 fanboy and see this crap posted day in and day out. The reality is, the majority of the story's are not fabricated. I'm personally on my 5th Xbox 360 and I received it like so http://x2theg.blogspot.com/...
I would not fabricate a story like that.
Hopefully all the RROD and the DRM problems will get worked out ...
because I just got a refurb back a few weeks ago and that did not work for me.

for some reason, twice, I have had a hard time taking out a guy on the turret on the stage of the Theater map. Once I was even behind the guy and he would not go down until he got off the turret.
I don't think this is that big of a deal. It's not a carnival that is in town for a week and your tickets become trash once they leave if you didn't use them all. New games, movies and other content come out all the time that you can buy or not. It's always there unlike a carnival that picks up and goes to another town.
The number two grip should have been the content you buy with the points no longer working offline or under another gamertag if you have upgraded your Xbox 360 o...
it's a Girl!
Can't wait!
Free would be nice, all they have to do is find a company or two to sponsor it like The Discover Channel did for Gears of War giving Two Free Gears of War Maps

The only thing I see wrong is A/V output: Playstation 3 has HDMI output standard, meaning it looks the best on your HDTV without much effort. Perfect Console pick - PS3
The Xbox 360 NOW has it standard and it's been some time so to be fair it should read:
A/V output: Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 both have HDMI output standard, meaning it looks the best on your HDTV without much effort. Perfect Console pick - PS3/Xbox 360
If only the three company's came to...
since I didn't get the "Serious" achievement that it carries over the kills so once I get a combined 10,000 kills between the two Gears, 1 and 2, that I finally get that achievement.
