Fanswag: Win a copy of BioShock, get it overnighted (Part 2) [We have a winner]

I don't like that I'll have to wait another 4 days to get my hands on Bioshock.

A couple of Toys'R'Us guys have said they finished the game in less than 8 hours, albeit speeding through the game.

Bioshock doesn't have co-op, and with it the game would be even more awesome.

Love the utopia-gone-bad setting of the game.

Microsoft and Wal-Mart sued over Xbox-related fire

May 26th 2007 2:29PM (Joystiq)
"They do realize it's their fault for not sending back the power cord during the recall, right?"

The fire happened BEFORE the recall was initiated.

"They need someone to blame other then themselves."

If the lawsuit is legit, they did not cause the fire - the faulty power cord did. By the way, the power cords were recalled in early 2005

The house fire happened in December 2004.

Apologies for the triple post, my connection was crapping out.

"I also saw a report on the evening news, so they have no real reason to say that they didn't know. I also was cornered by a mouth breather at EB one time asking if I got the replacement cord.

Their own fault."

Whether this is a frivolous lawsuit or not: With all the countless consumer electronics devices in modern people's homes, it is impossible to keep track on all the possible recalls that might be going on. Just because such info is mentioned in a 20-second blurb on news casts doesn't mean you can expect all the people in question to know of the information, or that it is "their fault" if something goes wrong without them realizing it. Ultimately, Microsoft and the power cord manufacturer are responsible if the product's failures if it malfunctions under any circumstances involving regular use, recall or no - it's their fault of for producing a faulty product in the first place.
