    Sony CEO Sees 'Stalemate' In Disc Fight

    Sony isn't losing the HD-DVD/BRD format war but Stringer's comment's due have the tone of a little desperation on Sony's part.They've done pretty much everything they can afford to do as far as economic incentives, so if they still do intend at making an attempt to "win the war", then they had...

    Sony CEO Sees 'Stalemate' In Disc Fight

    Anyone that has remained objective or "format neutral" shouldn't be surprized to hear this from Sony's CEO.Sony has been hemoraging cash for a long time now(mostly thanks to the PS3) and has cut prices on their BRD/PS3 models as much as they can.With the recent defection of Paramount to the HD...

    2GB or 4GB of ram?

    That's pretty much what i'm going through and don't think if i step up to only SLIGHTLY faster ram with the same amount of 2 gigs is going to do much of anything that i will notice.I'll likely wait until some better performing pc6400 4 gig sets come out(2-4 months should see quite a few new 4gig...

    Gonna buy the Geforce 8800 GTX (but which one?)

    Though not a GTX i just got the EVGA 8800 GTS Superclock 576/1700 for 359 - a $50 gift card i had towards it.It WAS going for $409(lifetime guarantee on card) on NewEgg as of 1/17 and is one HELLUVA card and BARGAIN compared to all the stock 800 GTS' going for $399 with only 500/1700 cpu/memory...

    Star Trek Online Q&A

    I've been following this MMO since it was first announced almost 2 years ago and have extremely high hopes for it.There are alot of vets from the various Trek television series working on the art,design, and structure of the game, so i have no doubt it will retain Next Gen's look and feeland...

    I have np leaving the wireless transfer on my Zune off most time.I honestly think there will be some homebrew or maybe even official use for it that will expand on it's capabilities someday soom.It wasn't even one of the reasons why i bought the Zune, so whatever happens wih the wireless won't...

    I need some help picking out ram

    There will be some difference if you plan on doing some overclocking.For a few more dollars you can get the 4 4 4 12 timing in the ram you buy.Rule of thumb when buying ram, is buy the best /fastest you can with what you can afford.

    MMO Sweatshops

    Yes, some of that is true, but trying to solve the problem by making it extremely difficult to next to impossible for them to do is well worth pissing a few folks overseas off.The folks overseas would also be able to do other things to verify who they were, by supplying their NA/European address...

    MMO Sweatshops

    Only way to really stop this is to make the North American and European servers completely OFF LIMITS TO ASIA.Developers might also require that North American based credit card accounts be used when subscribing to the N.A. based game servers and same for the Europeans. This has really gotten...

    Widescreen iPod Phone

    I just can't get excited about this product.I would absolutely hate having to press my face up against the screen of the thing, nevermind having fingerprints all over it from use.That mat sound trivial, but product design is 50% of it's potential succes and imo, this product is poorly designed...

    NSA Helped MS With Vista Security?

    This sure as hell delayed my upgrade, though for all we know this is only the first time news of something like this has made it to the public.Who says Vista is the first time this has been done.

    PS3 Controller Wins Emmy

    I'm not afraid to say Sony obviously didn't deserve it.The Wii controler and 360 controler are both superior in doing what they are designed to do, while the Sony Six-Axis is nothing but a gutted rehash of the PS2 controler.There's a total of about 12 games available on the market for the PS3...

    The Decline Of The PS3 Grey Market

    A buddy of mine had to relist one of his PS3's 2 times because of scammers winning the auctions with fraudulent intentions.Imo it probably wasn't worth the hassle unles someone was lucky enough to see them during the weekend following the 17th.
