This is the death touch for blu ray... Paramount, Universal exlusive... warner clearly favors HD DVD with superior content and release dates... they will be next. Blu ray is a fad being fueld by PS3... thats it, no differnet then the UMD.Bdking57

I did not realize that Paramount and Universal were the only studios. What about Sony, Lionsgate, Disney, Fox, Touchstone and Columbia? I hardly think Warner Bros will go exlcusive to HD-DVd since 300 on its first day of its release sold 190,000 on Blu-ray and 90,000 on HD DVD.

[QUOTE="zaid55"]can they still get the rrod?BioShockOwnz

My new Zephyr runs cool with the heatsink and doesn't get hot, therefore it won't get the RROD. The RROD is caused from heat warping the mobo and causing chips to pop.

I would not say that it won't get the rrod, but the heatsink should prevent it from getting as hot as the original models.

So the White, Black or Silver color.

For me it is down to the Silver or Black. Silver is $199.99 with Daxter, 1GB stick, and a Family Guy UMD. The black one is sold separately for $169.99.

So what color is the one that says "Damn, that kid is cool"?

Well the recent price drop, most people are buying 360s now. So the sales spike wont be too big around the release of Halo 3.

With the release of the NEW Pro Xbox 360 with HDMI output, is the Elite still special? Is it worth an extra $100 for 100 more gigs, a $10 HDMI cable and a black finish?

maybe if Microsoft had 1 SKU it would've been at number 1 combining the distributed sales of the 3 SKUs

1- Forza

4- X360 Premium

5- X360 Elite

13- X360 Core

amazon.com

P.S. as usual, apologies if old

Mystery_Writer

Are you talking about top slaes in the Xbox 360 category or overall? Overall they are different.

The core is not even in the top 100 videogame sales. I just checked in the same hour as you did.

I would say that 60% of the time, when the room is with more than 10 people, I will lag out.

And my connection is fast.

As long as there is Starcraft 2 and some guys from Blizzard, PC gaming will stay alive.

CNET posted an article about 360 owners getting shafted due to the process of fixing and shipping Xbox 360s due to the Three Red lights.

The Xbox live subscribers are the ones getting shafted because while their 360 is getting fixed, their live subscription is going to waste.

Also mention the long process of getting back your 360 from repair, which is about 4 to 8 weeks. For those who play Live a lot( like me), imagine no Live for 8 weeks? The madness....

Its basically an article talking about the customer service and the negative side of the 3 year warranty.

YO, I got an lcd mounted in my room and it is titled downward and not at eye level. Do you guys it would be awkward to play games like RE4 or Metroid Prime Hunters since I would probably be pointing upward? (And I know the sensor bar is what detects movement) Or Should I just play it on my rear-projection? What do you guys think?
