You are correct sir.

Well, just beat Kameo.

One of the best console games I've ever played. I simply didn't want it to end.

The bottom side is the main air intake, and it looks completely blocked to me.


But I really want to know where they got that all-silver 360 with the reversed HD mount!?

Well, I've got to start all over!!! I thought I could move my played games over to memory card, and delete the profile they were under, and then load them back under my new profile. I could not have been more wrong, and I want to cry now.

Now, if I could only get my hands on one BEFORE the PS3 comes out...

My local Target got a shipment of 10 Premium packages this morning, but sold out in minutes. Has anyone else found new shipments so far?

 

[Rage187]

I think DHL is trying to steal my XBOX360.

I check my tracking number yesterday and it is correct.
I check it 4 hours later and the street address had been removed. I call and am told everything is fine.
I check it this morning and the street address is still missing and my state and zipcode have been replaced with Missouri and the zip code for a city there.

I call and am told that someone has edited it, I get furious and request they fix it. He does but now says it won't get delivered until tuesday IF they can stop the delivery in Missouri.


WTF DHL, you theiving bastards.

My wife went to Sam's this morning and talked to a manager. He said they expect another shipment on the 15th. They don't know how many though. Their launch day shipment was 20 units.

Ken Kutagari said that the PS3 is so powerful that it comes with its own mini nuclear reactor.

dudes just being sensationalist to get attention. look at the rise in pc power usage, where video cards went from passive hs, to small40mm fan to now these freakin huge cooolers and power connectors. same with cpus. is he surprised? old consoles didn't even have fans. the last generation did.

Heh. Don't blame them. I wasn't going to buy one for myself either if all I could get was the Core.

I picked up a Core on launch day, because it was either that or nothing. And a Core system (w/HDD, extra wireles controller, component cables, and remote) is better than NO system.
