Hard nipples...going to give me nightmares!

At the CES Keynote Mr. Gates was commenting on the HP Home Server and its storage capacity. While listing systems that could access it he did include the XBOX 360.

Could the 360 be updated to allow it to send these IPTV recorded programs to the HP product?

Sure it would be great to not need to purchase a larger (and certainly overpriced) additional hard drive than the one I currently have. Though it would mean further DRM as to not have people sharing those files...

I mean, sure you get to view WMV files saved on your server with your 360, but if I can just record content via IPTV, or buy TV shows or movies on Live Marketplace, why do I even care about a Vista PC or that server?

Maybe I just don't understand these things...

I'm going to have to say the bet is off with no clear winner. If Cingular plays things like they do every other new phone launch, if Apple says it's available in June 2007, Cingular will finally get it to market sometime by Spring 2008.

Please refer to Sony Ericsson s710a, and...and...well, just about all Sony Ericsson phones.

For this reason I say the bet should be off with no winner.

Will they take my Intercooler back and give me a credit towards the purchase of one of these?

Right now that's about the only way I would give them my business again.

Todd,

Your upset that all the Halo 3 hoodies were sold out at Hot Topic aren't you?

Or is it that you are still ticked about the ending in Halo 2?

Now if they would only address the communication issues that was quickly patched for R6:Vegas.

It's sad when a game that has been out for just a couple of weeks pushed a patch fixing issues faster than a game out for six weeks.

I'm not a fan of the multiplayer issues as far as ranked matches and lack of clans/friends support, but when I and many of the people playing multiplayer can't even communicate it just sucks.

Yeah, sometimes turning the controler on and off fixes it, yeah sometimes leaving the match and coming back in will fix it...but...it may only work for a couple of rounds and might become an issue again.

It's like Capcom fixing text issue in a demo game but wouldn't do it for Dead Rising.

I don't expect the world but it's hard to think they are honest when they talk about content and support. Oh you can tell us of all the things you plan but what happens when we have an issue and you've made your money? We get the 'we're working on it' song and dance. Or better...it's not us...it's Microsoft's fault.

If Microsoft is the problem, document it. We the consumer will be more than happy to redirect our aggression to the guilty party if they really are to blame. We just want to play their (Epic) game on their (Microsoft) system. If we have problems doing that you would think that THEY (combined) would do everything they can to quickly fix it. Can't get me a quick fix? Then at least tell me what the heck is going on.

Proper follow up with the customer. Never happens anymore and it's sad.

Not to be the call letter police but the station in Indianapolis is WTHR.

I played it this weekend and was seriously upset that the last couple of stages were so hard. I had was complaining like a little kid not getting his way.

Moments later, my girlfriend (a casual gamer at BEST) picks up the controller and rips right through the whole game...with three different characters.

Shut me up pretty quick.

Well AzHat I'm glad you get into games easier than I do. Monday evening I tried getting into ANY game (ranked or unranked) for almost 25 minutes before giving up and playing Dig Dug.

The one lobby I did get into was a racial slur shout match between two little kids and another older guy that should have known better.

I've not noticed the voice chat issue all too much but that is probably because I don't hear people chat all that much (which is a shame).

I think Andy's post does a very good job and pointing out some issues that make it very difficult to enjoy the multiplayer parts of this game.

I hope Epic actually comments on these issues and not just continue to kill threads in their forums.

We are not trying to be critical we just want to enjoy the product of their hard work. These issues keep us from being able to do that.

Good work Andy!

Please tell me your joking. $40 for a program to shake hands with MySpace? I would just enjoy being able to log into MySpace myself without constant 'sorry folks...were doing...stuff. -Love Tom'. Would I pay $5 to try it out...probably, but $40, good luck with that Spyder.
