Guys,
Why the hell is everyone making such a fuss over the ONE OFF payment for Xbox Live?? Christ, its a freakin pittance !! Sony can keep talking up there supposed new online service being "free" etc etc. Nintendo much as well, but how many idiots out there think that the mooted idea of all Nintendo back/ctlg games will be free?? And just you wait until those microtransactions aint so "micro" anymore !!

Jeeze I dont think Ive ever seen so much damn MS bashing on any one site/blog as this one. You wanna talk about MS trying to "invade" and takeover more of our lives?? Jesus H !! Gimme a break. Just look at Sony for fucks sakes !! They make TVs, DVD Players,video games, CD/MP3 players, own movie companies, have large % in TV production, own about 99.9% of the western worlds music labels and even have a small stake in "indie" lables. So "buy" my reckoning, Sony controls what you hear, see, and what you use to utilize those senses !! And you talk of this "Microsoft is only in it for the Money!!"
Sorry, forgot why Sony escapes this ??? Must be that Japanese "kitsch but cool" mentatlity.
So guys, enough of this "XBOX 1.5, M$" bullshit. It just doesnt stand up anymore, and if you hardcore fanboys etc would stop flooding sites like this, it might have some space left for people who actually want to say something constructive !!!
Take it easy all,
Daniel

Stupid idiots. The 360 isnt doing any emulation at all.
Geezuz I cant believe how freakin stupid people are to believe this shit. Next my 360 will be emulating my freaking TV through my PC/Card through the freakin Media Centre. Geezuz - what a bunch of tossers. Someone get unsigned code running, then run an X-Port emu, then you have someones attention. Bunch of tossers.

Just a quick repost to note on myself - I KNOW NOT 6 FULL MONTHS IN RETAIL !!!! I also meant including the orig. demos with test kits etc etc - so, sorry guys !!
Daniel.

Guys, I think to make a truly innovative game, takes months to years, a stroke of genius if you will. Not making some controller or add on camera and saying that you WILL enjoy it or use it THIS WAY.No - IM NOT AGAINST THE REV's CONCEPT CONTROLLER !! - But look, when the first Xbox came out, after several months etc it really did, in all honesty, put the PS2 in its place, in a technical standpoint. But then eyetoy came out. And that changed every thing again. Then they milked the eyetoe thing for all it was worth. It was getting to a stage which I thought the Ps2 would end up being nothing more than an over-glorified karaoke machine with all that SingStar shit. And this Buzz shit aint nothing special either, but again it just hit that "whats missing" category.Look, the Ps2 is well and truly past its used-by date, yet they keep bringing "innovative" things out! PLUS SOME TOP GAMES !! Xbox 360 is just over half a year old. No one knows the tech behind it yet fully.Give the damn thing a chance. If anyone at all has the guts to put aside all this bullshit brand loyalty shit, and actually check this system out, it is absolutely freakin awesome- DONT THINK IN THE NOW - Think future potential !!!! Dont be sucked in by all this - ohh.. wait.. PS3 coming soon - Ill wait for price drop/ comparison etc etc - STOP FENCE SITTING. If you are lucky enough to have the money - fucken treat yer self to this system !!! For what its worth guys, Blu-Ray, as it stands now, is an over-rated POS. And so far, this baby is gonna give the PS3 a run for its money in the tech stakes anyway. And always guys, be cool !!!
Regards,
Daniel .

Yeah, some NEW games would be cool. But has ANYONE checked out the demos for Ninety-Nine-Nights ??!!?
That looks f****ng awesome!!!
Why is it that they are thinking of only releasing that in Japan ??? Thats a crime !!
Daniel.

If anyone gives a toss about price, I remember paying around $75 (Australian) for Golden Axe on the Sega Master System when it first came out....
