Meh they went cheap on it, not really the rush thing... from what i hear it's the cheap solder they used that is cracking under normal operating temps.

What I heard besides the thing you said, is because of the long delays they started switching over the 360 since they weren't sure when the ps3 was actually going to come out

At work, and websense pwns it. I'll try to find the chart, what I saw was Wii was way ahead of both of them, then 360 was still slightly ahead of the PS3 and this was like 3 months after the ps3 release. Say yours is a more accurate depiction of what the sales are. You don't find that pathetic that a console that is what 2 years(?) older is STILL selling more then a brand new one?

they are also supporting HD DVD. there is one section of Blue Ray and one section of HD DVD. guess time will tell to see which one actually wins

Not a single one of those is big named, they might be supposed 'good' games, but none of those really have the background as say Halo 3?

I also like to add you would have to pay another $120 for the Microsoft add-on just to watch HD Movies where sony's is already built in. I'm assuming you have a HDTV once you watch a HD movie you can't watch regular DVD again.

The thing is people complain about PS3 being so expensive, but the Xbox360 is just as expensive. Sony just put it all in one package where as Microsoft just nickel and dime you over and over.

No, if you work 9 hours in a day and it's not your standard schedule, it's 1 hour OT.

Correct.

Doesn't matter.

Sometime I have to work 12hr days but that just because something has happend to my truck and I'm stuck somewhere, or like the prisons I deliever ice cream to gets put on lockdown and I'm stuck there too
You may be salaried, but your job does not meet the definition of "professional" so I'm not sure they can legally get away without paying you OT. Plus your company apparently doesn't suck.

ya, i haven't seen an HD movie except on cable. I'm not spending the 120 bucks for an HD DVD reader, i'd rather just buy a dvd burner/hd dvd reader cd player for the same price


Microsoft > Sony at marketing ****.


People aren't that smart, and don't realize if they buy something for 300 bucks, then 2 months later they buy a HD DVD reader for 120 bucks, then a few months later a bigger hard-drive for 120 bucks. Then oh look a game update for 15 microsoft points. Well you now tripled the price of the ps3.

It's not the price of the ps3 that makes me not want to buy it, just offers me nothing really

Then you shouldn't be bashing it. also you shouldn't be getting your video game news from a mustang site.

That's from 259 days ago.

They announced at E3 (this week) that is now a PS3 exclusive. The xbox360 version was a rumor (probably even considered) but the official word is PS3 exclusive.

meh we'll see. I have a feeling it will be exclusive for a few months, and then will have a version come out for 360. There was just wayyy to much buzz, for them not to IMO


Either way Halo 3 FTW

He occasionally works at sears point in the gift shop, primarily on events. His name is Chris (about mid 20s short stocky guy.) He has a primary job now so the track thing is fun job I guess. Pretty cool guy though.
