Bigfoot

lol @ TP's version of beating the shit out of chickens.

Guy I know took a pic(a rather bad pic) of a PS3's hard drive being corrupted. "The hard drive's file system is corrupted and will be restored"

That game is odd. It appears to be very realistic, but then you can ram into the side of a dune buggy with your motorcycle like you're driving a car yourself.

They did this for the Xbox 360 too, right? Even though I know that they can do what they please with their property, a part of me says "WTF NO" to destroying a $600 piece of brand new machinery. Yeah, and the Ipod and other things. They accept donations from people and when they reach their goal, they spend it on whatever it is they're going to smash.

I watched an employee play some dirt racing game today. The only thing that looked awesome was all the stuff in the background with how clear it looked. I couldn't believe how shitty the grass was(lolpeoplemakingfunofCoD3ontheWii). You know how the trees are on Mario 64? The way it faces follows you whenever you go, well that's how the grass was in this game. Also, the motion sensing controller does not work well at all. I was wondering when this would turn up: Smashmyps3.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CTy7Nx0oPI

I thought it was bad enough when Maddox was putting down Sony.

PS3 and HDMI not working well.

Yup, that's where Sony made their mistake. Releasing something that is wanted so much by people through out the world with such embarrassing numbers is really stupid. It just causes chaos.

Worst launch ever. Sony should have waited until they had reasonable numbers to launch with. First there were BB guns. Now there were real bullets used.

There's no way that deal will go through. No way. People aren't THAT stupid.

It'd be nice if it were possible. Some lame older gentleman was on the news. They asked him if he was keeping it or selling it. He had the most stupid smile on his face "I'm just here to get it so I can sell it. It's all about the money". He probably doesn't own one gaming system, and probably just heard about the PS3 from friends or something.

Who are you using? I started off with Poppen, got to level 16, and then realised that he's totally worthless. Magic is pretty useless in this game because the spells take so long to cast, and his physical attacking absolutely blew. We got to the desert boss, and you have to use the bow to hit him, and I was the only one who had a bow, and I did one damage to him with every arrow. Last night I decided I would use Ferrik instead. I started off with Ferrik. I think I should take a few runs and get those 50% exp gems. I keep finding stuff that is like 8 levels higher than me, heh. IIRC I'm level 22 or so atm.

If you're selling your PS3 on eBay, I sure hope you didn't get your pre-order from Gamestop. You may not even get one.

Yeah, I agree. I loooove the music and the way the game looks, but it's most definitely a button masher. Your character is VERY dumb too. It's like every time someone says something, you'll respond with what that person just said but in a question, lol.

Oxymoron. That's what that comment is. So what about the people who DO want Bluray? What about those who actually want HD content? You can't just use the 'people who don't care' argument. People tend to care about stuff they buy. Duh. That's why I didn't say "Everyone doesn't care about Blu-Ray". It's expensive to people who don't care about Blu-Ray. It's just right for people who want to take advantage of Blu-Ray. That better for you?

I'm curious as to what they said though. They probably yelled what every customer that leaves unhappy says "FUCK BEST BUY" "DON'T BUY AT BEST BUY" "BEST BUY IS A RIP-OFF"

Awesome. I bet they were pissed. I'd sue. In this world I bet they'd win too. They're going to have to put those signs up every time something big comes out that involves lines.

Burbank Best Buy campers removed lol, sucks to be them. What a waste of days.

Yeah, and how much shit would Sony get if they pulled that off? It's a free market. Sony is selling the console at a loss, for much less than it's market value as seen by auctions. Yet people still say it's too expensive... It's expensive to people who just want to play games and could care less about blu-ray. The Xbox360 is giving you the option to get a seperate HD-DVD player add-on. Sony is forcing it on you by including it into the system, thus making it more expensive. "Sony's PR department pointed out that it, from the start, expected backwards compatibility to be less than 100%. It was also good enough to point out that some people can put up with playing games that lack sound." lol... Instead of making that arrogant remark, he could have just said "We'll issue a patch to fix this problem".

Wait, so you're excited about the motion sensing controller for the PS3, yet you call the Wii's controller a gimmick and what not. And HD is great and all, but not everyone has an HD TV. That's a lot of money they have to dish out if they want to get the full potential out of the PS3. And just incase people missed it from the last page. The PS3 will probably see a price drop in April 2007 because of this I wonder how long the lasers will last in the first gen PS3s.

The PS3 will probably see a price drop in April 2007 because of this But I think they should have delayed the launch in Japan. 80,000 is embarassing.

It's tough holding back the urge to watch these videos and stuff, so I think I'll start a new game on OoT.

PS3 being taken apart: Part1: Part2: Part3: Part4: Part 3 shows the heatsink. It's pretty cool, but freakin' massive as hell.

What the FUCK?! It's over 9000?!! Not being funny, I'm being serious. What the fuck Considering there's a good chance now that the US launch shipment will be cut in half to around 200K, 9 grand may well turn out to be a good deal, for a guaranteed system. Here, link. http://digg.com/gaming_news/Playstation_3_shipments_cut_in_half Granted, it's from one source and whatnot, but I can really see it happening. Guess we'll have to wait until monday and see if other game news outlets report on it. Meh, some random Best Buy employee isn't a good enough source to stand by. I work at a Best Buy store, and some people don't know what they're talking about sometimes.
