I'm guaranteed 3 years, which seems good to me.

You do realize there is a huge difference between 360 owners and lemmings right?

just as there is a difference between cows and PS3 owners, sheep and Wii owners, and hermits and PC gamers.

He has an old model obviously that is why I am saying you overblowing it. The newer models don't have that many problems, if any problems at all. Also like I said they are still improving. Since you don't have one if you bought one, you might not have any issues at all.too_much_eslim

What proof do you have that shows the newer 360s have better realiability. Do you think they would have bothered offering a 3 year warranty for all their systems if they could easily fix the problem with the newer systems, of course not. They took a billion dollar hit there, if it was only the older consoles with the problem they would just give a warranty to the older consoles.

When RROD is not a problem a more, you will know because MS will be the first to toot their own horn.

[QUOTE="too_much_eslim"][QUOTE="Ninten007"]Why do lemmings cringe at the thought of buying a PS3? too_much_eslim

Overblown hardware problems.

Scratching disks, disc tray problems, RROD, freezes, black screen with white dots, pieces falling apart in the system, overheating, etc.

Now listen there is no way I am saying it is okay for the sysetm to break down.

That gimmick 3 year warranty is almost up. Some customers warranty expire this winter. So what happens when 360s break and they have to pay additional for repairs.

Say they purchased a 360 at $399, and have to pay for repairs, that alone jacks up the price beyond the PS3.

I am not overblowing it. My cousin, the only 360 owner in the family is on his 4th 360 already.

It should be a Lifetime Warranty. 3 years? Many people plan to play their console alot longer than that. MS is just gonna piss off people when they have to pay for their own repairs.

How can he have an old model if he is on his 4th one? He got his 4th one nearly 2 months ago. He are wondering how long it will last.

Got a 360 Christmas of 2006-It broke by March 2007, so he gets a new one through Best Buy replacement plan. Now his second one breaks around May, gets a new one. It lasted up until April 2008, so now he is on his 4th one.

MS have done this SKU and new models before. Wait for the Jasper, Wait for the Falcon, Wait for the Birdman, Wait for whatever chip name they give them.

I don't cringe. If it wasn't for the failure rate, I'd probably get one. BUt I meet to many people who says they're on their 5th Xbox.GKinnel

Mine died after 1.5 years of hard gaming. My refurb (same console) has been getting even more use then before and I haven't had a single problem now for 4 months.

I'm not worried at all.

[QUOTE="Javy03"]

Yes the 360 has made great strides in the JRPG department but its far from a reason to buy the system. So far the JRPGs that are exclusive to the 360 that have released have been far from stellar.

Andrew_Xavier

Eternal Sonata and Lost Odyssey disagree with that statement...

Cows are more afraid people and lacks courage. They really fear the rrod. These people are more likely to fall for fear propaganda. I just hope they'll open their eyes and see the better video gaming console. Jump in.

[QUOTE="too_much_eslim"] link? Only Eternal Sonata is going to the PS3 and that is Japan only. If TOV goes that is Japan Only. IU, SO4, LO, and many more is 360 exclusive. While FFXII is big it is only one game. What JRPG fan only plays FF?Javy03

And what JRPG fan plays the majority of their JRPGs from mainly one company. Mistwalker is the company contributing most of the 360s JRPGs. I can buy a game from Japan and play it on my PS3 because the games are region free. SO4 has yet to prove if it will remain "exclusive", it wont come out till 09 and they arent ruling out a PS3 version.

if i have extra money this year i will buy it for fable 2 because that game looks great. i rather have a few less games to chioce from than having a dead system and sending it in for repairs.

The devs have not ruled out SO4 for the PS3 and it has more then a year before its release they flat out. I mean I am not surprised that they didnt wanna talk about a possible PS3 version in a MS event. Tri ace has one coming, Namco's RPGs have been coming to the PS3. Most of the 360 exclusive JRPG support comes from Mistwalker.

Because I hate microsoft and the way they are buying themselves into the gaming industry and how they strive for monopoly and forcing the consumers to chose their product like with their operative system. The only thing they are really good at is business and dominating their competition by stealing ideas and marketing. Im not really a cow though my favourite gaming console would easily have been the Wii if they had equipped it with next gen graphics and had the realistic type games of the ps3 ans 360 as well as the kiddy and casual party stuff they have. Sony just happens to be the lesser of two evils. Alot lesser.

"atari invented it, nintendo improved it, sony made it mainstream and microsoft bought it."

I will avoid a MS product whener I can.

Not to mention a 3rd round of improvements named Valhalla is coming to improved the system once again.

There really is no reason to complain about RROD any more. Chances of you getting it with a newer console is far less then what it was before.

To say someone shouldn't game because they can't afford every system is absurd. Infact it's very rude. I know we all have our biases, but to tell someone they shouldn't "game" because they dont' have your system of choice, that's pretty low. Infact there are a lot of people that are still buying the PS2, you know why?? Because they like video games but can't afford a PS3, X360, or even a Wii. You should feel very fortunate for what you have, it can change in a moment.

Smaller chips mean less heat and less power.

Heat is the issue the 360 has a problem with due to the solder and clamps.

Shrinking the CPU and GPU will relieve this problem. The added heat sink to the GPU also helps this problem.

I provide you links and you still don't believe. the publishers which is SE said no.too_much_eslim

[UPDATE] But while The Last Hope is currently 360-only, Square Enix producer Yoshinori Yamagish told reporters in Tokyo that a PlayStation 3 version might be possible further down the line. "We can't really say anything yet," he said during a post-announcement press conference. "The answer to that is that, there's really nothing set at the moment. We can't say right now that it will or won't come out. It could go either way. The only thing that we can confirm right now is that it's coming out first on the Xbox 360."

They no longer make 20 GB boards... Nor 60 GB boards. Once they run out of stock for repairs what am I going to get? I surly don't want a crappy 40 GB or 80 GB model.

Best Buy PRP FTW! My Sony warranty was up, so I would've been royally ya know. I took it into Best Buy and swapped that crapper out for a new one. I ALWAYS get a warranty, because as much as sheep and cows wish; nothing is perfect.

Hope it wasn't a 60 GB. IF my 60 GB broke I would me majorly pee'd off.
