I think that was a bad idea to make it Gold only - considering Twitter, Facebook etc are free to use on the PC.

…and the biggest let down of the year was UK Sky Player!! It doesn’t stream on-demand content the same way that Zune Player does so all the loading inbetween makes it pointless to use - and to watch the 20 Live TV channels which are all the shittest going is an extra £5 per month…

Funny how Xbox Live “GOLD” is in a sense forcing people to pay Microsoft for the use of Twitter, Facebook, and Netflix.

I wonder how those companies feel about that.

Twitter is now part of everyones Xbox Live Gold. It’d be retarded not to include it on an Xbox Gaming Website… I do happen to use twitter and recently verified by Celebs That Twitter

I agree with Smitty.
Also: why would you rather have avatar items as opposed to a theme? That’s just dumb. Tho i guess it goes w/ the fact that the author clearly loves tweeting. Enhancing your social image (avatar) is more important than sprucing up your home (theme).

Comment on Xbox360 Gamers Defecting To PS3 For Sequels by zarbor

Well, I have to be fair (unlike a lot of you guys) but the PS3 is starting to wake up and winds of change are starting the blow. I have a 360 (just one RROD) and 60GB PS3 from launch.

Up until Uncharted 2, I had bought just one game for my PS3. Every other game was on my 360 because it had better exclusives and the multiplatform games ran better on the 360 or it had additional content.

Not anymore. Batman is a good example of that in which the PS3 version had additional content yet to come to the 360. Madden looks every bit as good and runs just as well.

As for the online, don’t believe the hype. I still like XBOX Live better but its not worth the 50 bucks anymore. Anyone who tells you its worth it is an idiot and sipping the MS juice.

Even MS knows its not worth it and trying to give value by adding Last FM, early demos, Facebook and Netflix. Problem is that the PS3 is getting all of those and don’t need to pay the $50 bucks.

I have Modern Warfare 2 and purposely bought it for the PS3 though, I’m still going to get it for the 360. The online works great and every bit as well as LIVE. The only issue I have are the installs. Those are annoying but a smaller price to pay than the $50 buck for LIVE.

LIVE should be free of at best $20 bucks. At one point in time it was worth it….not anymore.

Hell yeah, I loved the original, I was hyped about it since the demo.
When they advertised it was “being re-made in HD” I didn’t realise they meant “copy and pasted.”
I tell myself time and time again never buy steelbook editions, but I never listen.

twitter sucks ass. it’s only for faggots who have nothing better to do in life than “tweet” about every little thing they do.

Learn this people, NO ONE FUCKING GIVES A FUCK WHAT YOU ARE FUCKING DOING.

Thanks.

its pointless to even add that free online service point. you get what you pay for and if you pay shit for their online service thats exactly what they give you. and why assassins creed 2 on ps3 the first one had ungodly load times compared to the 360…mostly because the 360 has a better everything inside.

As Xboxic “forgot” to mention this, I’ll fill in the gaps - the freebies are only available to users from the US and the UK. The rest of the European Union is once again left out in the cold for reasons only Microsoft knows.

Shoddy Call of Duty Classic haha, it was meant to be the original - and is exactly the original. It was good in its day on PC, but yeah its crap now. But since I paid about £33 extra for it and a tin - I force myself to enjoy it

Oh Ghost. He’s like the Darth Maul of Modern Warfare.

***SPOILERS***

So Ghost, he appears with no introduction, all you are meant to know is that he is badass. Then he dies.
What?
And yet his face is on a lot of MW2 related things.
Just like Star Wars - Darth Maul, badass, came out of nowhere, then killed.

Talk about killing the best characters before they’ve even had a chance to develop!
Although I guess Darth Maul wasn’t voiced by, say, Alec Guiness.

***END SPOILERS***

With that little rant over, I would quite like a Ghost game, so long as it was made by Infinity Ward and was better quality than the shoddy Call Of Duty Classic that came with the hardened edition.

Please save bandwidth and spell rumor without a second “u” (there is already one u in the word, and since the second u doesn’t change the pronunciation
then the letter is pretty much redundant).

And for the record - no, I’m not an American/Canadian/whatever.

The thing I hated about 1 vs 100 was that I was always working for the live games. That’s not their fault though.

One thing hasn’t changed, though - Microsoft still shuts the European Union at large out of the game. Keep passing people, nothing here to see… :/

Augustbot, I think you jumped the gun there. I wasn’t talking about your particular scenario at all. I was talking generically. So your comment regarding subsequent posters being retarded is actually… well… retarded.

Might be more distance in actually reading what people are saying before assuming they’re talking about you and your specific context.

(*) Restrictions apply. Unless you live in the UK, then you are pretty much on your own. Keep dreaming about Netflix, Sky Player, 1 vs 100 and last.fm.

Yeeeeeah… lest everyone forget, the 360 did not launch with HDMI. My launch box doesn’t have it, same as AugustusBot’s.

HDMI is standard on all models of Xbox 360, so quit your crying and start getting your facts right.

I’m pegging it on PS3 Slim sales - a lot of people, gamers that own 360s, have decided to finally grab a PS3 as well, and they want to test out the new hardware. That’s what I would probably do, anyway.

I’m surprised they picked ACII as a game with a strong “franchise lineage,” though, as opposed to… I dunno, Final Fantasy or something. Something that’s had more than ONE game released.

HDMI is standard on the Elite. And it has plenty of HD space. And far more software support. Developers have a far better software infrastructure in XNA. I would have thought if you’re serious about gaming the XBox 360 Elite would be the clearest choice by far, especially given the shortcomings of the PS3 and Sony’s complete mishandling of their product. The only reason I would own a PS3 now is Blu-Ray and I’m in no rush to do that.

But, each to their own, I always say.

Why would I spend 299 more dollars to get hdmi for my 360?

So yes… 360 has no HDMI. For me.
