Maybe so, but if the article I linked has any merit at all, to make a snap decision to fix a billion dollar issue I think deserves some praise.

To give some credit to Microsoft. When the realized how wide-spread the RROD was - they bit the bullet and offered a full recall. If you have a moment, here's an interesting read from a Microsoft Exec who was in the midst of it all...

When buying my second car (second hand) I let the car salesman know he was the first dealership & car I was looking at for the day. With this info, the guy gave me his recommended basic checks to make sure nothing was off about any of the cars I was looking at on the day. Simple things...

"Now, let me just dig up my receipt from 10 years ago..." - said no one ever! To be fair, that's my personal circumstance anyway. I wonder how many people can honestly say they are holding onto receipts for their entertainment devices that are bordering on 10+ years?

Think this would be a key point to take note of. While Microsoft might be pushing with their first party games i.e. Halo I would expect publishers to still push exclusives to the console...

Must admit, when I watched it I didn't catch any of the satire O_o Pretty dam cool movie thought :) Especially loved how the brought in all the different troll mythos for the different species like sleeping under bridges!

Hell yeah. Remember absolutely loving the trailer... partly because Prey was a cool game. But ESPECIALLY because of the Johnny Cash track :)

Can only HIHGHLY recommend playing Arkham Knight! Was an awesome closing chapter the series. I played it on PC since release and didn't have one issue. Had a good handful of friends pick it up in the past few months who haven't reported any issues on the PC version...

Not sure why, but I've always been a sucker for the Orc ending cinematic of Warcraft III

Big fan of $ per hour ratios of games. Comparing to any other past time i.e. movies and it totally blows them out of the water :) But OT, highly dependant on the genre of game. RPG like Skyrim or Fallout - depending how committed you are, could potentially be hundreds of hours!

Funnily enough, watched a video on this very subject just recently. Pretty much builds on what others have said where practical + good CGI = greatness But I like the quote near the end of the video (to paraphrase) digital artists will toil for months/years at their craft, and if they're...

Maybe it's just me, but it's definitely the other way around where I'm more concerned about juggling what is and isn't installed on the Xbox One. Would have thought anyone on a current gen console would be on a decent connection these days. Espeically considering the amount of updates that...

Definitely see the merit in what he is saying, but this is something that would be waaaay down the line (is the way I read it). As others have already said, biggest benefit I see with the console gamers of the world is they don't need to worry about system specs and know anything they buy FOR...

That's one way to look at it. I'm excited to see the different applications in everyday life that developers can come up with that no-one has even thought of yet! Obviously waaaaay down the line, but if something like HoloLens became affordable/smaller, I could see the TV market going into a...

My money would be on
