I understand where you are coming from Alpha. And I understand where the guy from the article is coming from as well. He states that he has gone through a couple of Red Rings and is ready for a change. I have purchased a Pro, sold it for a Elite to get the 120GB drive and HDMI, then sold the Elite to a friend because of no use. Both the Pro and the Elite rrod within 6months of me getting rid of them, but I was missing the 360, so I bought a slim. Very happy with the slim, but it still ge...

Well I just picked up ME2 for $11.00 from Amazon on the 360, but it was a very hard decission. As my last 360 went belly up (not a RROD so not covered under the 3yr) I decided not to replace it and sold my hard drive to a friend. Then the Slim came out so I gave MS a 3rd try. Love the slim, lost all my game saves and character saves though. So I had all intentions on getting this game for my PS3 as I didn't have a character save to pull over anyway, (well that and I have already went ...

ND going for the 3pete.

My cousins wife said it best when he had Nathan standing beside the castle wall looking out over the water when my cousin's wife came in and asked what movie he was watching. He said he laughed and said this was the game he just rented.

He didn't think twice about buying the second one. And he will probably buy the 3rd as well.

As for me, it is hard to pinpoint a single awsume shot in the second showing...

yeah, I can see I'm going to have to take matters into my own hands and pour some water into my JVC 56" just after the extended warrantee runs out so my wife will give me the OK for a new Sony Bravia 3D!

Ah, thats cool hesido, I miss read your statement, I understand now. but there were many others in here that were trying to state the PS3's drive is a single speed drive instead of the 2x speed. So the info is still relevant.

Have a great one!

PS3's Drive is a 2x reader:

The PlayStation 3 disc drive is an all-in-one type allowing the use of different formats.

----BD----
Blu-ray disc read maximum is at 2× speed (72 Mbit/s), region coded type allowing the use of:

PlayStation 3 BD-ROM[31] (DVD region matched; i.e., Zone 1, Zone 2, etc., and All)

You are kind of right, but just placing direct numbers will only get you part of the way. To lock down the numbers a bit better.

Thanks NBT, I knew I remembered seeing it somewhere. It would be nice to have in GT5 and I already have it on pre-order for the PS3. I probably will not be getting it for the PSP though.

Does anyone know if the PSP can be used as a rearview mirror with GT5?

I remember that was one of the selling points a long time ago and was wondering if it ever came true.

Out of 43 million consoles sold, there are only 25 million subscribers. That is sad. I guess we know how many bad consoles were replaced then don't we.

Don't take offence bud, just turning it around on you. I have a 360 (been through 3 of them actualy) and currently have one of the new slims.

My point is, don't get too cocky trying to spin things as there are many of us 360 owners that know the truth!

One friend is getting a PS3 this weekend now that the date for GT5 has been hammered down, another friend is waiting for Black Friday to see if he can score a deal. (I wish him luck) :)

look a bit closer and you will notice this is for the Collectors Edition of GT5, so considering not every PS3 owner is going to want this particular version of the game, having the increase in sales and the current ranking is not too shabby. Show me any special edition of a game that ranked in the top 50 and I will be impressed.

Can anyone find what the current ranking on Amazon of the regular GT5 game is?

Taken from website...

Sony has announced a reality series based on the GT Academy which took place earlier this year. The show begins this Thursday at 10:30pm and follows the contestants as they race against some of the world's top drivers - including Eddie Jordan and Johnnie Herbert.

The would-be racers will go through a 5-day boot-camp testing them mentally and physically to see who can compete on a global level. The prize is an opportunity become ...

So, where do you put the batteries?

:) Just joking of course

This whole numbers thing is almose getting out of hand. One person gives a set of numbers from website A. Another person gives a different set of numbers from website B.

This guy spouts off that while MS has sold 40+ million consoles, only 28 million are still active by MS's numbers of active accounts...

It is silly. When the PS3 first came out, it c...

You can now zoom into screens while seated.

I guess I was just a couple of days ahead of schedule. :)

I like the Star Wars Canteena, but they need to put more songs in there instead of looping the same one over, and over.
