"The new xbox will not have the red ring of death" the head of marketing said. "Well that's good news" the people said they sigh a breath of relief. "Because the new xbox is incapable of producing the red color on it's lcd light." WHATTTTTT

I am a little late, but the one game that made me, literally, squeel like a school girl was Twisted Metal! It is easily my favourite game series of all time!

haha, you know what I love about companies advertising their new consoles? They make it sound like the older one is worthless.

You have to hand it to Microsoft though. The main complaint was to fix the red ring of death. In a way, they did. By giving it a permanent green ring instead. Kinda cheap and jack*** way to do things but its funny and gives lol.

Well, the new Xbox 360 has a good share of its own problems.
And the red ring of death was replaced with the red dot of death.
Only the middle power button changes red (effectively saving electricity, wooo).

Well... at least it isn't as ugly as the PS3 slim.
High fives all around~!

Its the same issue as it already had, but i keep wondering who keeps shaking there X-box during playing it?
I dare you to tilt your PC to its side when playing a game from a CD, same issue..

My old Xbox is apparently a tank. Its been running for 48 hours at a time, I've owned it for two years, dropped it with a disc spinning in it, and own a dog that produces enough shedded fur to cure to world of baldness, and the only problem with it is its fan is a little loud. I mean really. I think I just got incredibly lucky. Also the the CD mentioned was my CoD4 cd and it now has 5 perfect circles carved into the back. The game still works but non of the character voices or kill streak sounds play. Its kind of weird.

As for E3, I'm looking forward to Portal 2 and Halo: Reach (guilty pleasure). Everything else seemed like standard fair. The shooter genre is REALLY getting crowded, especially the modern/near modern area.

The Medal of Honor beta was a huge let down IMO, the game play is terribly bugged and the guns have NO recoil.

I'm glad game companies that once hated the ps3 are now favoring it,
I was really happy when Valve said that Portal 2 on the ps3 will be the best console port also because Steam is coming to ps3 as well(only a few months back Valve was still bashing the ps3),
Also Assasin's Creed and Dead space 2, games made by companies that once expressed anti ps3 views now have made the ps3 version the better version
also the most surprising thing was that the new medal of honor was demoed on the ps3, which is surprising because usually its the pc version thats demoed cause it has the best graphics or the xbox version is demoed cause more people have xboxes

I'm also excited for killzone 3 as well

Same, pretty much. I just go with another server.

They do really need to figure out something about the serverslam syndrome that happens with every big update, though.

But its not really cost effective to spend all the money increasing bandwidth by like 200% when after that night it won't be used again.

I just read a review of an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game something) Mouse, that is customed for MMORPGs (It has 12 buttons on the side). In the review it said it had too many buttons, WHY Buy the mouse, if you think it has too many buttons? You're supposed to bind those buttons to certain abilities your character has, not some FPS mouse <.<
