CRank: 5Score: 6720

This is absolutely getting out of hand. How an article like this got approved is beyond me. All the griping and moaning because people were hoping there would be more in this update. The simple fact is that Sony told us EXACTLY what was going to be in this update... no more, no less. Would I have liked more in the update since it is a major update... heck yes. However, the changes they made are a nice addition. They added the PSN Store channels under each of the video and games columns ...

Have not seen such whining in my life... Sony told everyone exactly what was going to be in this update. Stop beeotching and get over yourselves. There was no what ifs.... I personally like the changes they added.

That's interesting... I just replaced my kid's old xbox that did the infamous error and I just bought him an arcade since he had his old HDD. It came with an HDMI cable. It works fine on my kid's HDTV.

While Halo is not one of my favorite IP's... it will sell well. Especially since MS is using their old tactic of tacking on a Beta Invite (for another Halo game none the less) with the purchase. Sony should do this from time to time as well. It will undoubtedly sell millions IMO.

Have to disagree with you there. I hear crap like every other game session on both PS3 and 360. Anonymity is the root of most of these problems because people think their is no way to beat them down. Their are other ways to aggravate your opponent than throwing slurs out (unless you are in a closed group of friends who are okay with it).

I agree that it is a derogatory term no matter how it is used. I find it interesting that it is "okay" within a portion of the black community to use that term between themselves. However, anyone else uses it... all hades breaks loose. I can't tell you how many rap songs I hear that have that term in it.

I personally have mixed feelings on this issue. I do find it interesting that some "groups" will yell foul; however, when another "group" yells foul... the others are okay with it. Oh the irony. This unfortunately seems to be the norm for the online "Universe." People feel they have a level of anonymity online and feel that they can say whatever they want whenever they want. I personally don't care online. If you don't like what someone says... BLOCK THEM. ...

Coming from a nonbiased point of view (having two of each console in my home)..., I think that the Netflix service is not up to par and very overhyped. Having had a subscription to it when it was first released... I do know a few facts about it. First is.. even though Netflix offers literally thousands of movies to view online... not all are available to view on the 360 (unless I was doing something wrong). That is the major reason I got rid of the service. Secondly, and most important to...

Everything is monitored according to one of the moderators. They can pull up everything regarding an "alledged" offending activity and base their decisions on that proof. I agree that this lawsuit has no merit and is a waste of our court's time. There are strict EULA/TOS regarding online and if you are stupid enough to harrass others... you deserve to get banned. As for his alledged funds on the PSN... I am not sure how the TOS regards these if you violate the TOS/EULA. I think...

Since there were no video feeds allowed... I will wait on a more reliable source than some guys/gals blog page. If you pay attention to the statement he made... why did he put "including Microsoft" in parenthesis if it was part of the quote? That makes it appear as an assumption on his/her part in an attempt to get hits to the blog page. Anyways, I truly am not concerned about this title for the FF series has never appealed to me personally. Will give it a try though this time a...

I like the new aesthetic look of the store. And even better are the load times. Nothing pisses me off more than when people gripe and moan about what they didn't get when they are getting it for free. Every little change is good overall for the experience... no matter how small. We did get a few changes besides the look today. Quite a bit of data was added to the store though if you look through it. New channels, shows, etc... I was hoping they would have already put E3 info up on the ...

Does it really matter who has been researching it longer? The only thing that counts is IMPLEMENTATION. As I have been pointing out (no pun intended) all day is that while the MS new camera is a great start for them... it currently does not allow fine motor control. Sony stated before that the research behind their PS3's camera was amazingly sensitive and allowed them to pursue different avenues. Just surprised it is taking this long to get the tech out the door to the public. As far as ...

Sony would have to be suicidal if they let Kojima and Konami release a Metal Gear game only on the 360. Kojima and Konami would never endanger their relationship with Sony in that manner.

I would have to agree with the article somewhat. While the 3D mapping ability of the camera is a leap from what Nintendo offers; it currently does little more than Wii Sports. I for one am not interested in casual games of that nature. The control of the NXE dashboard is nice but a little gimmicky. There doesn't appear to be any fine controls which would be needed in a real game. We'll just have to wait and see what MS does with it instead of bashing their idea before it is even released...

Did everyone miss the part where MS said that all your friends could get together and watch the same media? How is MS able to pull this off and Sony ditched it... presumably due to legal issues? If Sony doesn't incorporate this feature after MS states they are... I would assume that there will be an uproar with loyal PS3 fans that were told during a past E3 the same feature was coming and then later ditched. Wasn't too impressed with the "Only on Xbox" titles mentioned. Looking ...

It does appear to be an amazing evolution of what Nintendo capitalized on. As responsive as the 3d Mapping technology appears in the demo presentation, I highly doubt that it carries the capability at present to be able to take away the controller from major games. Could be sweet if they could integrate it into the control scheme (3d mapping on the hud, voice commands, etc) in the future. I see this as currently being only similar to Nintendo type games (Wii fitness, Wii bowling, etc). Ni...

I hope that is not the case (with the timer and all) for I do believe that the MGS series belongs with Sony (my controller of choice). Anyways, I am really excited for this years E3. All gamers are win-win any way it goes. There are so many great games coming our way fairly quickly.

I am not surprised at all that they would try to pull this crap off. We already pay exorbitant prices for speeds slower than a lot of Europe. They should just invest in trying to upgrade their servers instead of capping the ones that they have already. I myself would see this as an easy out of the ATT contracts. I signed up for unlimited data plan and if they change that... then I should not have to pay for the early cancellation. I would see ATT losing a large amount of customers if thi...

Same here boggle... I haven't played the first or second installments in the series (mainly because I was never a PS fan before the "big 3" came around. Have ordered the first two from Amazon though. Can't do a sequel justice if you haven't played through the entire story. I am psyched for this game though. It looks amazing.

I am in a wait and see mode for now. I personally don't believe they will be able to pull it off as well as they say they will; however, for now, I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Anyways, it will not affect me one way or the other since I doubt I will subscribe to the service. I like my consoles and the benefits each has.
