PSA: PS3 users reporting 'bricked' systems after 4.45 firmware update [Update]
Posted on Jun 18th 2013 11:55PM

Path of the Furon canceled on PS3, becomes a 360 exclusive
Nov 26th 2008 5:27PM (Joystiq Xbox)But hey its an exclusive and that makes it great right? Right? Just like all those wii Carnival Game clones, only on Wii= Top notch...yeah?
Xbox Live US presidential election poll results
Nov 4th 2008 5:30PM (Joystiq)You actually think one of them will cause mass genocide on the american people?
Thats just sad, I feel bad that you have that much hate in you my friend for either of the politicians, neither of em deserve that kind of vile bitterness when all either one wants to do is hopefully make our country better and pull it out of the rut that its in.
Myself well i voted for Obama, because I believe he'll be good in the long run, if he's not...well he can be voted out in 4 years, but either one of them cant be too much worse than the man we have in office right now.
Either way, some change IS going to be needed on either candidates to get the country out of this downward spin its in.
I swear some people just hate candidates for all the wrong reasons... its not like MCcain OR palin have exactly spotless records or questionable dealings in the path (and the Bush's and Clinton's and so on didnt either).
Face the facts ALL politicians have shady dealings, it goes with the territory from what i can tell.
Molyneux: the PS3 is waiting for a defining title
Sep 21st 2008 11:59AM (Joystiq Xbox)Metal gear has a bigger following than either ME or Fable, heck one could say Resistance does too.
As for defining titles that can be a good or bad thing, I'd rather my console NOT be known for ONE game, but rather a bunch of games that appeal to different people of all types.
Midway: Xbox 360 is 'lagging behind' in Europe
Sep 9th 2008 12:29PM (Joystiq Xbox)and from what i have seen the 360 indeed has been sluggish in the european countries overall, PS3 has gained considerable ground on them in terms of sales both hardware and software wise.
Its not ALWAYS about attach ratio (which wasnt even a factor until this gen oddly..) I guess its the same with that first to 10 million issue brought up a while ago. Its just a baseless number that means nothing to publishers.
As long as they sell games, i doubt attach ratio means much, if its not they're games that are part of it.
More leasing woes: Ford Credit takes big hit on trucks and SUVs
Jul 28th 2008 6:26PM (Autoblog)Leasing may be a bit more expensive than it was, but i think its high time people get a wake up call and realize you cant just lease a 30k + car/truck for under 200 a month anymore.
As for GMAC... since CF and GMAC are BOTH owned by Cerberus... i wouldnt be surprised if they pull the same stunt.
Saving money is saving money in the long run and i would half to imagine GMAC takes a bigger hit than CF
LittleBigPlanet allows users to charge for created content
Jul 20th 2008 6:40PM (Joystiq Playstation)Ok big deal, so one two or maybe even 3 content creators (independent content creators) will be able to charge $.50 or even up to $2 for a map
I'm sorry i'm not seeing the big deal here, especially if theres tons of other free to DL content. Not to mention its not like we cant make maps ourselves in our free time...
So once again i'm not seeing how this "ruins the game" for anyone?
Wouldnt that be like complaining that there are AWESOME maps some people just dont feel like sharing? Does that ruin the game too? Knowing that there will be people out there creating content you cant access?
EA: LucasArts and BioWare building KOTOR MMO
Jul 17th 2008 4:18PM (Joystiq)As great as some stories are in MMOs they're generally not very strong story wise due to the sheer number of people.
I'd be happy with Lucasarts just letting SWG go back to pre NGE (kinda liked CU...). and having another KOTOR would be nice, with multiplayer aspects (2+ player RPGs FTW).
Still i ownder how long it'll take to get this out? My bets are 2011.
PlayStation Home's public areas region locked
Jul 17th 2008 9:22AM (Joystiq)You dont HAVE to use home for anything, i mean seriously if home is a sore point for you... you must hate XBL because of the coming "Avatars" which is in essence almost the same thing.
But of course it'll take sony a while to flesh out everything...PSN is what? a year and a half old? Xbox live has had nearly 6 or so years to get its stuff together.
Either way, Sony is catching up pretty quickly in terms of functionality and I think thats a good thing no matter which way you cut it... you shouldnt have to pay for xbox live anyway.
Netflix coming exclusively to Xbox 360 'at no additional cost'
Jul 14th 2008 2:41PM (Joystiq)Either way neat on both ends. I dont quite care for netflix (I have a PC hooked up to my TV if i need to stream anything), But for those that have that service, this is a nice coup on MS's part.
here's to hoping Sony and Ninty have some neat surprises on their end as well.
Peering into the depths of Qore
Jun 6th 2008 12:50PM (Joystiq)Its like complaining over the difference between having to buy gas for your car, or some mud flaps. Ones needed and one i just an add on.
