Those it does piss me off that they charge 100 for a 20gb version from a line of laptop HDs that only cost $119.00 for a 160gb drive.

witch is funny they baned the sale of used PC games.

From what I have seen 20 years most things will have online distro,in the next 50-100 online distro will be the new emerging format that then slowly replaces in hand stuff after that.

True NIN is focused, MS and Sony have shown they are sloppy 2nd to building a console and sometimes try to hard to tact on their own stuff to it needlessly.

HDMI is not bad but not great either component is good enough you can always get a adapter to change HDMI to component.
to me the 360 fails on at least 3 grounds
1.Hardware the fail rate is to high
2.Hard drive limit (extrunal drives are the pits)
3.First year of live gold should be free(in all a minor annoyance)

the new model is laughable 90nm CPU with HDMI and a black case and new HDD without the fully revised chipset why are they padding the price,plus the 120HD is also a 180$ stand alone,MS has lost all the respect they gained from me laothing sony.....now I am unhappy with both however there is light MS will be fully upgrading the premium 360s later this year with the 65nm CPU/HDMI/120HD,of coarse I bet its the 20GB HD and not the 120,I love MS >>

As Emeril is to cooking shows (or Iron Chef is to cooking shows), Kramer is to investment shows. He really knows his stuff and he's easily excitable.

I dunno about their policies but Gamestop/EB merger was big, they're still in second place when it comes to selling videogames where Wal-Mart is still way ahead of them. But the company thrives on used game sales, which is where they make the majority of their money. Which, developers and publishers absolutely hate since after the initial sale, they're cut out of the profits being made on each subsequent resale. EB and Gamestop are running on borrowed time though. Once online distribution becomes more popular and eventually a standard, they're going to be screwed when people no longer can trade in for next to nothing for them to resell at a much higher cost. Luckily for them that's still a very, very long ways away.

I'm starting to recall something with their policies that was talked about awhile ago but just can't get it out of the back of my mind and into the part that still works..... Oh yeah, there was that management thing with M rated games from awhile ago where if an employee sells an M rated game to someone they shouldn't have, not only does the employee get fired but so does the manager.... But uhh there's more than that, hmm.

@ Zachary, what exactly is wrong with the company, can you be more specific?

@Zippy
Are you talking about HD as in HiDef? or HD as in Hard drive? Cause you can upgrade the hardrive and I will most likely never touch and HDMI port.... I hope... please don't become the standard.... /cry /drm /tinfoil

The hardware is fine. I still think that in the end smart programing can bring the 360 and the Ps3 closer together. Unless of course they make better compilers for the ps3 sooner than expected.

I like On the money on CNN better,Jack is so cool :3


"GameStop:
This is the best in show demographic retailer and they continue to do the right thing."
Best in show meaning they seem to have the best looking charts....heheheheh

"Xbox is real good, but it can’t be a driver."
MS made to many mistakes with the 360 they could have been a driver if they had better hardware and let the HD be upgradeable.

I wish I had Nintendo stock,it nearly doubled after the WII >>

I was watching this segment in a hotel lobby.

He's also a moron.

GameStop? You've got to be kidding me. From what I've seen of their corporate policies, I'm shocked they are still in business.

Idiot.

One stock that's been good to me:
Activision. Low in the summer, peaks in the winter.
