I really do like how when less than 1% of PS3 users with the update have problems, it's perfectly fine for a 'news' blogger to go out there and proclaim that the PS3 is having MASSIVE PROBLEMS.
I think it's admirable that Sony's PS3 OS team has the dedication to correct any minor glitch of a problem the PS3 runs into with-in a three week period.
Um, shouldn't the developers be going after the publishers and telling them they don't like the idea of used games. Yeah I see it as selfish of the developer to A) demand you shellout as much money as you can for their products and B) are in a way dictating how you are to use your property.
There is no simple solution, but there are solutions. Publishers can easily pressure GameStop to hold off on used games sales of new titles for like 60 to 90 days simply by threatening to cut...
Given that, there's still a lot of inconveniences that are wrought throughout the OS.
It's like the early days of XP, needing a lot of tweaking.
I think the bigger story is that they're already ready to release a 4th gen Nano given that the current 3rd gen ones are less than a year old.
But then again this is apple, and somehow has the power to compel people to go out and drop $200 or $400 every time they release a product only marginally better than the model before it, but still a product roughly 2 years behind others in the same price range.
Old old news..... nothing special here at all.
Interesting concept that OCZ has put out there and $1250 is not a bad deal, however the question stands is if it's worth the cost vs a desktop which will have more power behind it.
All and all it's more up to the reporting journalist to put things in perspective at times. Thankfully Mr. Chris Rah Osiris has taken the time to do so.
I think, and it's good that it's finally happening, that Home is coming to the masses. This is but the true first step in getting it completed. However, none-the-less people will still be making complaints about what's lacking rather than appreciating what they'll have.
It's coming to the point where if you're not an unhackable MMO then you're not going to make money. Casual PC gaming is booming, but other aspects such as popular hardcore games are getting the short end because honestly there's no longer strong incentive to pay $50 for a 10 hour PC game that's probably going to look like crap on your two year old computer.
I have to say that Valve got one thing right and that was to use an engine that played well on older hardware. If this form...
See, when he says humans what region is he looking at? The fit Japanese market, the tubby American Kids, or the not really playing games European kids?
And lets not forget every human is fairly shallow and just looking for something sparkle, sparkle.
I want to know where got power from and why not use a top loading NES. But still.... this is not the golden path to women.
I think a generation needs to move on and leave their NES behind. Forever.
Freaken' awesome.
They can't justify that they are holding back because people will potentially complain about what's missing; people do that anyways. Look at what's happening with FW 2.40/.41: non stop whining how they want this in it now and that in it now.
It'll never end, but you can get a majority to stop complaining if they have something. I'd rather have something half finished and working than sit around with nothing at all. At this point, they have only to gain not to lose.
Seriously, 2.4 / in-game XMB and people still want more features they're probably not going to use to their full extent.
I just want to say I'm 100% happy with the current round of changes, but I don't know why people want to try and get fame and infamy with writing complaint and desire lists over what features you get with the PS3.
Do people really spend all that much time on it that they can make lists about what they think other people need who don't spend as mu...
DO NOT WANT.
If you want to play FF VII on the PS3, go get one of the millions of PS1 copies floating around.
Well it's not 100% a lousy product. It's more misguided and should have never been fractured into so many versions. All and all I have to say there's a bit of a thrill and joy in modding Vista to work as I want it as in the olden days of WIN98 and WINXP/2000.
It's like a rubix cube that someone else has messed up, leaving you the puzzle of solving it and making it right.
However, reading this list, they're doing Apple's "300 'new' features in OS X Leopard"...
I'm fairly sure this 'casual gamer' is well aware of the wee little problem dubbed the Red Ring of Death. I don't think many of them are willing to put up with the BS and baggage that's potentially going to stem from that.
More over, people have had enough headaches from Microsoft products and chances are they don't want another.
Wasn't it praised all last year for being way better than the PSN Store (which was web based at the time)?
I don't want to start a fight, but really, this seems like back-pedaling from a lot of comments made about it. (Or perhaps those were thing said from the legions of fanboys on both sides.)
It's not a waste when your PS3 is doubling as a PS2 (80/60GB models).
Actually this is comical AND practical. very creative thinking.
I vaguely remember this incident where I was driving around a track careless less shooting down anyone in front of me to win first place. I think I also kept endlessly falling off track and never getting first place.
