That's actually a good point because the 360s are not stable machines already. Hacking the hardware and software might make that shit catch fire, lol

Firmware updates and drive flashing won't result in a fire.
I was just trying to be funny, but you never know.

We had a test kit start smoking after we updated it's XDK (kind of like an OS upgrade). The test kits aren't that much different from the retail ones.

Subject: RE: You modded a slim PS2 for me a couple of montsh ago. What about
a 360?

I accidently deleted the last response you sent me. You said the 360 won't
play regular xbox games if it wasn't supported, but what about online
capabilities? Can I play online games like phantasy star online or FEAR or
GOW?


I removed the emails just because, but as you can see his answer to the question was As for now, yes. M$ will probably update everything or go to some other schematic.

Not really... Sony is fucked.

So a kid tells his parents he wants a PS3 for xmas, they go to the store, and find that the PS3 is sold out... and they see either the 360 for $400, or the Wii for $250...

I really think the Wii is going to be the big winner this year, just from the price point alone.

How is this bad for Sony?If they both ship the same amount of systems, and the PS3 has already sold all of theirs, isnt that a GOOD thing?That means that Sony was in higher demand,does it not?

Money is money, it doesnt matter who bought them.Whether 400,000 people bought 1 or one person bought 400,000 PS3's.The point is, they sold out,

Wii is supposed to have a million units shipped at launch. Sony is stuggling to get 100,000 in Japan, and 400,000 in NA. Sure they will sell out quick, but after the initial sell out, they will lose money hand over foot with people buying either a 360 or Wii instead of the PS3, or both systems like I would do if I didn't have my 360 already.

^they will loose money at first, but people who want a ps3 are willing to wait until the become available again.....I'm definetly trying to get at least one to sell, but I might wait for a price drop to cop one for myself...wii looks very promising tho, I'll wait till that gets hacked to be able to download free games on that since nintendo is supposed to charge for the downloads

Thankz for dropping that, i was wondering how much energy my 360 was using im very energy efficent, power saving bulbs and all that (when you pay your own bills you notice how much all that shit saves). I cant believe that the ps3 eats that much energy, no allnighters then.

The only way i see sony countering this is by making their internet playability completly free.
