Don't play it if you think it's that bad.

My 360 is only loud when I'm playing a DVD movie or game in the DVD drive. The HD-DVD player itself is really quiet when playing a movie in it. It's no louder than the PS3's Blu-ray drive which is also silent.

Disks are going to be round for a long long time to come.
That's for sure. They may one day be holographic disks or something else, but they'll stick around for some time.

No, they're talking about the points that are used to buy stuff on Xbox Live.

Check Carver's previous posts.. You'll see he has a history of talking bad about GoW and UT3.

I think it is hurting them because they could be selling a lot more. After Christmas sales will drop sharply.

You can get the 13-month Gold access for $40-45 online.

After looking at Carver's earlier posts, I have come to the conclusion that he is a disgruntled former Epic employee and is getting revenge by talking bad about GoW and UT3.

17. Re: PS3 and Xbox 360 Must Drop to $199 Nov 28, 2007, 15:10 John
 
I've never bought a 360 or PS3, because the high end PCs already have better graphics and I have a 24" flat panel instead of a HDTV that I know I'd never use.

Yeah, but to get a high-end PC you have to spend a lot more than $400. And you can connect the console to your 24" monitor.

1. PS3 and Xbox 360 Must Drop to $199 Nov 28, 2007, 10:02 John
 
What about the Wii?

The Wii at its price point is now setting a standard and an expectation, and people say, well, the Wii is less complex technically. I don't think that really matters as much to the consumer

I think it matters and so do many other people. A lot of people think the Wii is over-priced.

I wouldn't call the 8800GT 'midrange'.

$40 for the PC version? I thought this was supposed to be a budget title.

$40 is better than the usual $50. The 360 & PS3 versions should be $10 cheaper though.

12. Re: ... Nov 14, 2007, 09:59 John
 
Kane & Lynch does not feature online co-op and it is unclear if the PC version will even support split-screen co-op...

That sucks but I mostly play co-op on a single console anyways so it's not a problem for me. Seems strange that they can't get co-op online though. I was looking at another game that was the opposite and could only do co-op online.

70-80% is not bad for this type of game. I like that you can play through it in co-op mode. I'll wait for more reviews, and hopefully a demo, but I'm still interested in this. I'll probably wait and pick up a used copy later though after I get, and beat, Mass Effect.

25. Re: PS3 graphics Nov 9, 2007, 17:05 John
 
Have you played (maybe just the demos for) Ratchet&Clank and Uncharted?

Yes and no.

Check out some of the videos of Little Big Planet. In terms of realistic graphics/physics, I think that beats anything yet seen on the 360 hands down.

I'll have to do that. I haven't played much on the PS3 yet, but some of the games would only run at 720p, while most 360 games run at 1080p (or are upconverted). I have a 61" tv so its easier to notice a difference between the two resolutions. I will have to get some game for the PS3 which is also on the 360 and do a direct comparison sometime.

7. PS3 graphics Nov 9, 2007, 12:44 John
 
Mark Rein: PS3 UT3 graphics better than Gears of War.
I'll be the judge of that. So far I've been more impressed with the 360 graphics over the PS3.
