So what you're telling me is, launch day consoles are having hardware troubles? I wish I could tell you I was surprised. This is pretty much why I'm waiting to get mine.

PS2 would go on to become a legendary beast in its own right; it was just last September that the final games were released for it. The Dreamcast always had so much going for it and is a very influential console that was way ahead of its own time. It's very unfortunate it could not get a solid...

I would like to think that if this were a serious problem, that they'll have better hardware released in the future. Hopefully it isn't an issue, but since I'm waiting to get mine anyways it'll probably be fixed by that time. At this point in gaming console technology that would be a given...

Ah, I suppose that makes it official now. That's good, I heard New Vegas was not a very well-received title with issues relating to the game freezing. I can't imagine they'd want to stop making Fallout games, let alone have the last title in the series be their least popular.

That's a lot of demand for not much supply. Good for the market, bad for the consumer. I really feel for those still waiting, though all my friends seem to have gotten theirs in time. What a seriously huge number though. Sales through the roof, and we're not even at Christmas yet...

You could try eBay, Craigslist, friends and family. There aren't many options, it's a launch title that lots of people probably have. You can probably find someone who wants it and doesn't have it yet, and sell it for cheaper than the local game store.

It's weird, I don't really understand it either. I've only known Nintendo fan boys in real life, and they were never that bad. Just a preference for quirky gameplay and strong childhood attachments to the top-shelf IPs. Nothing like I've seen on Xbox forums. Any piece of news that can be...

Anyone who expected anything different is optimistic to say the least. These things will happen with fresh systems. It's part of the reason I'm waiting to get mine. I want a lot of the kinks to be worked out before I invest my time and money into it.

Well, some games have caused me to completely derail my sleep schedule by overextending my sessions. Mostly shooters though, as I can play those for hours on end without really noticing the passing time. Overall I couldn't miss a commitment like work or school just for a game though.

Yes...."few"... *shifty eyes*

I wouldn't rule out the possibility that sabotage reviews could be procured by their main competitor. It wouldn't be the first time a rival company took to trashing their opponents via similar means. That being said, I think it's more likely that there are fanboys on both sides of the console...

Super Smash Bros Brawl. I could play that game forever. The problem is, it is the most fun for me when I am playing against other people, and nobody really plays it (way more people play Melee). Hopefully the new Smash will provide a solution to this. I am waiting on that game with bated breath.

If it was cheaper I would buy the 3.5 ten times out of ten. There are some beautiful games out there but some of them aren't always the most playable ones. The best games I've ever played have had inferior graphics to the most modern advancements. I say it's important for aesthetics but...

To me it used to be about the money. Now that PS4 will require subscription for PSN, I'll be able to get a more objective feature-based outlook. For one thing, the user rating system in XB1 aims to weed out quitters and rude people. So that's a plus.

No, computers are just much easier to deal with. I've used it for YouTube videos when my computer isn't working, but that's really about it.

Nintendo made a brilliant decision gearing their products to families and non-traditional gaming demographics. Now Sony is saying they need them to co-exist, to sort of groom young players into future gamers. I did not see that one coming.

Well, I don't think it affects me too much as I have Minecraft on the 360, but it'd be a shame if it was outright unavailable. The way I understand it, he's just saying it won't be available at launch. If so, this isn't that big of a deal.

I can see how the PS3 controllers don't fit the bill because of their small stature. However I can't stress enough how poor a decision buying a third party controller is. I've never seen one that is well-designed, not cumbersome, and completely functional. Some have a couple of those qualities...

I would only use one if I were playing with friends. Every game I play online I usually mute everyone before continuing. If I don't want to hear them talk why would I want to talk to them?

Makes me feel lucky that I was never duped to that degree in my game downloading days. I would hope these people learned a valuable lesson about trusting downloads from the internet. It seems like people are routinely scammed because of a lack of education regarding the dangers of such endeavors.
