Looking past the Wii comments I really can't stand watching grown men cry about their "art form". Grab a tampon hun, you're not an artist you're a programmer. 00110110001000111001000110011000010110 IS NOT ART! Kuniva1181

I guess listing the letters that make up the chemical compositions of different types of paint makes painters not artists.

Programmers can use code to produce art, just like painters can do with paint.

Art is a subjective thing, if other things like chemicals on canvas and music can qualify as art in the eyes of the mainstream than images made by complex code certainly should too. When you listen to music you don't consider the individual soundwaves, you hear the music they produce. When you look at a painting you don't see the chemical compounds or even individual molecules of paint that make up a picture, you see the picture itself. When you play or look at a game you're not seeing code, you're seeing the image created by the code.

[QUOTE="Number_1_Gamer"]What is "duck tape"? Is that something that is used to tape a duck's feather's back on should they be yanked out?Shirley_Temple

That's DUCT TAPE, not DUCK TAPE.

Its clearly Duck Tape.

Hahahaha. That's Duck brand duct tape.

It's "Duct" tape, Duck is just the brand that makes that specific roll.

Lots of different companies make duct tape.

Will it have unified friends lists and stuff?

This lobby nonsense in PSN needs to be fixed, same with ease of messaging and inviting friends.

cobrax25

I believe so.

I'm trying to find info on that.... but I can't...

Sry if already posted but looks like GRAW 2 is another worthy AAA title to add to your 360 collection. With im sure many more to come. I know this is IGN also but im sure Gamespot will give it a 8.8 or higher so im basically gonna call it a AAA...   http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/photos?photoId=1456803&gameId=270305026Thrasherx2k1

Seriously, I clicked on that link and thought "That is THE most realistic looking basketball game I have ever seen."

None.

If you buy something cheap in Hong Kong it's a cheap imitation, definitely not OEM.

Ever hit up the streets of *insert city here* and bought cheap Rolex's or Oakley's? Same deal in Hong Kong.

They don't offer killer deals because they have distributor hookups, they offer killer deals because they're not selling "the real deal."

Hong Kong is a hive for piracy.

The only complaint I have about Home is it's content.

It has a lot of stuff.

Especially a 3D world, with HD textures and dozens of people at a time.

Can a 56k connection handle it?Willy105

As a broadband user I would vastly prefer that a console's online not be catered to those with 56K connection.

Nintendo can afford to make their's 56K friendly because they've made it clear they're not interested in actual online play, and 56K simply would not cut it for such stuff. When your online amounts to a ROM middleman you don't need to optimize it for high connection speeds.

The heart and soul of PSN and Live center around playing online with other users. The vast majority of them have broadband (by "vast majority" I mean "every single one,") and the layouts should be designed as such.

It does indeed seem like a great feature.

It's not going to get me to buy a PS3 by itself.... only great games can do that, but when I do get a PS3 (which I will) this sounds like a feature I will definitely dig.

It makes NO sense for them to show it only behind closed doors.

Suspicious.
