Joyswag: Suit up for Monday Night Combat [update: giveaway closed]

Aug 11th 2010 10:42AM (Joystiq)
Well, there is a shot called "The Lumberjack"... it is a pretty sweet and girly shot in terms of booze, but you eat half a piece of bacon before you do the shot and then eat the second half as a salty chaser. It has become kind of a tradition and it is hilariously contagious.

PS3 firmware 3.41 updated, hard drive upgrade problems exterminated

Aug 4th 2010 9:22AM (Engadget)
My PS3 was bricked by the update. They want me to pay $149 for repair plus $29 for shipping and whatever taxes there are. Bye bye Sony products in my house. I will not continue to support a company that doesn't stand by their products, especially when they cause the problem in the first place.

Tried installing a new HDD too. Nothing seems to work and Sony has been super helpful :(

I ran the update via XMB and left the room. I have a stock fat PS3 80GB MGS4 edition. I have tried everything to ressurrect it! Removing and reconnecting cables, reseating HDD, replacing HDD, holding buttons down, etc...

In all cases flicking the PSU switch in the back to the ON position causes the PS3 to blink the red light and beep three times. No video, no power controls, nothing!

Great, still doesn't fix my now bricked PS3. $149 + $29 + taxes to repair a problem they caused. Not to mention my PS3 (aka Brick) is holding a Netflix Blu-ray disc hostage! Who would ever need a manual release triggered by a something as primitive as a paperclip? Surely not the masterfully engineered and flawless brick.

Come on Sony you are better than this!

Recession-busting $150 Blu-ray players coming this year

Feb 3rd 2009 12:05PM (Engadget)
I would potentially pay $25-30 for a blu-ray if it was a hybrid disc that played on DVD players. I am the only one of my friends that has a Blu-ray player (PS3) and I don't see that changing anytime soon. So far I only have purchased Iron Man and just Netflix the rest.

Microsoft reports $100M decline in Zune revenue

All they need to do is come out with a new version every 6 months that makes the old like look like a turd. Haven't they learned anything from Apple.

I wanted it to be like Out of this World! It wasn't. I would love to have an XBLA or PSN version of OOTW, that would be rad.
