Some known bands have already done something like this before. For example, the prog rock band Marillion, who have a very dedicated and loyal fanbase, went to their fanbase and asked them that if they helped finance their next studio album, that in return they would get a thank you by getting a free...

On the way Oofster!

Thats did not stop you from blasting the Xbox for only having 300 backwards compat games.. Sounds like you are making the same argument I did to you before :) And as Chris stated, I also work in the industry and know for a fact that it is harder to dev to the PS3. If a game is to be multiplatform, ...

HD-DVD capacity is now up to 55 gigs :) Ok, this comes straight out of Wikipedia... "A 51 GB triple-layer spec has been approved, however no movies are currently scheduled for this disc type." With that, then if they triple layered a Bluray, you're looking at a disc in the 70-75 gig range...

Just being a smartass, please forgive me :) No forgiveness needed Chris, as I was not offended. However, I didn't buy the PS3 to play my PS1 & PS2 games on it, as I find that it is a bonus reason on why I would purchase a PS3 over the 360. My biggest factor is the reliability of the 360 system,...

Yes, the $399 sku has no backwards compatibility. That is correct, the 399 version (aka 40 gig version) is not backwards compatible, but do you really buy the new next gen console to play your old gen games on it??? It also doesn't have as many of the USB media ports that the 60 or 80 gig versions ...

The question was Wii VS 360, the PC3 wasn't a part of the equation. Latte summed it up very well as far as I am concerned. I will eventually end up with a PS3 but as of right now there isn't a must-have exclusive that warrants the purchase. Additionally I would be willing to put money on the new Me...

Dont listen to them 360 fan boys. PS3 is the way to go. Lets see our checks and balances: 360 = 33% failure rate, PS3 = less than 1%. As far as the Wii, if you can actually find one, get it! Gotta agree with the Oofster here... go PS3 and get a refurbished one on Ebay.....I can hook you up with the...

I love this service....it's like Neflix, but for video games. I'd like to hear other opinions of others using the service.

You just haven't played the right Xbox games. Play Bioshock and let me know if you change your mind or not. Uhhhhh, isn't Bioshock supposed to be coming out for PS3 as well. It was my understanding that they were in the process of porting it over.... also, don't buy an Xbox 360 unless your willing ...

HAHA!!! I know huh. I couldnt believe he was actually on there. Not like he actually played for more than one season. But I was trying to build an old-school Hawks team. Hey Oof, gotta agree wit ya... I love 2K8 way better than Madden.....I also love my PS3...let me know when you're on....I'd love ...

I remember those games well after working for Sierra for several years. I don't play PC games much at all but I can say there is nothing that compares playwise on consoles :) I dunno about that....I've played a lot of games on the PC that were hella good. One of my fave games was Operation:Flashpoi...

All I remember Codemasters for is all their second rate old school games. Didn't realize they actually became a legit company. I dunno....Operation Flashpoint and OF:Resistance for the PC are awesome games...stay away from the xbox version though...that version sucks. It is a great game for the PC ...

Y'know what, for as much as someone spends on either of the 2 consoles, they should have a longer warranty. I mean, I know things happen, but at least they should back up their product, if it's actually worth a shit. Also, if Red Octane fucked up your Xbox that's out of warranty because they produce...

Did your friend get the EA hockey game? If so I strongly recommend NHL 2K7 instead. What exactly didn't you like about Moto GP 2006? I fucking love the game although it can be a bit difficult. Give it another month before making a decision as by that time Forza 2 will be out which looks to be the s...

Thanks Wayne for your insight. Also, great way to get us back on topic. Thanks for letting me know about the noise level from the 360. My gaming setup is in the bedroom, so QUIET late night playtime while the wife sleeps is important.

Ok, let's get one thing straight, I don't hate Bill Gates himself, per say, because I don't personally know the man. As for his company's ethics, which start with him because he is the founder of the company, I personally see as questionable. Hence the reason the EU and the Justice Department have g...

I encourage you to do some research on this if that is what you believe. And you still have not given reasons why he is evil. From the same article above: Before he began giving money away, people complained that he was a miser. Now that he is giving money away, they complain that he’s doing it too...

Because you must be evil if you are concerned about your company's profit margin. I believe that is pretty much standard practice in business. What are you? A mac user? Linux? What? No, as a business, you have to be concerned about your profit margin, however, why not give back to the people that h...

My point is he does not just take care of his employees. Ok, let's be honest with ourselves....do you really think he gives all this money to philanthropic causes because he does it out of the goodness of his heart. Don't be nieve...he gives it because the government gives him a tax break for doing...

Yep, that's right...I expected a response like that from a Bill-bot.....

Is there something wrong with your current Xbox? Is it broken? If so, you might want to buy a used or refurbished one. From my experience, even the games that are backward compatable don't run quite right. Forza Motorsport, for example, is buggy as shit played over 360. At least mine is. Buy a next...

Ok, here are some titles for the Xbox that I can't find on the list: Gun Sega GT/Jet Set Radio The Punisher MVP Baseball 2003,2004 and 2005 Legacy of Kain : Defiance DOA:Extreme Beach Volleyball I have plenty more on the shelf that I can't play.... If they are on the list, let me know....I might of ...

Thanks ZXRO for your candid input....I was chatting with Skankdrummer and he says that MGS 4 is coming out on 360, but from everything I have read, Konami and the guy who makes it have been steadily saying that it will be a PS3 Only title..... I'm still thinking PS3 because I just don't see the HD D...

I know this question has been asked before, but since I'm ready to make a purchase, I wanna get some opinions. Here's my take....I already have an extensive PS1 and PS2 collection, and I know the PS3 is almost fully backwards compatible. My Xbox collection is quite large as well, but hardly, if any,...
