There not going to last forever yours and touchedgolfs never get turned off.
BR player means nothing LOL And two games plus possible MMO's do not justify getting another system in my book.

LOL no hate here DJ

:conf: Doesn't sound right but thats another reason extended warranties are useless if thats the case. IMO

not hard either way. I set mine up with wireless. You just go through the dialog screens. Also easier to set up the HD on there.

it is just you. :)

I'm impressed with some of the games on the PS3. Yes the multi console games are a bit better on the 360 because of Live. But the PS3 only games are quite good and provide a great experience.

Plus it's nice to not have a system louder than my surround sound system when playing movies.

Well Kudo's to MS today I get a call from them concerning my extended warranty they apologized for the misunderstanding now my 360 is under warranty until July 2009 but the kicker I would receive 1 year of Live.:coolguy:

You are so wrong.. Fist of all "Movie Night" with ythe Blu-Ray playing Ps3 makes up for the initial cost plus all the Ps1/Ps2 games I play on mine... & to think there will only be a few games worth getting after this year is over is just your opinion.

I know I will want - LittleBigPlanet (Girlfriend likes)/Resistance 2/Killzone 2 (Love FPS) & maybe MGS4/HAZE & eventually God of War 3 = More than a few

No Mike it seems they no when they screw up and try to make up for it.By the way my Live doesnt run out until Dec 09 anyway.But Mike at least it is a gesture on MS part knowing they screwed up

Thumpthis
04-15-2008, 09:55 PM
Mike if your so disgusted with the 360 leave plain & simple, never have nothing good to say about the 360.At least I'm willing to give Sony another try after I felt I was screwed by the PS2 after sending it in seven times with the dreaded DRE , but I feel Sony( PS3 ) seems to more stable than both on the hardware part but feel MS is trying solve there problems.

MGS,Socom,GOW 3 & Haze will be purchases for me if I decide to purchase a PS3
