| | Sad thing for Sony is that even though I love games, I still can't see myself spending $600 on a single console. However, I would seriously consider snatching up a Wii if I found one simply because it already has some great games and has a whole library of Gamecube games I'd love to play. As it stands, I can already play 99%+ of the available library of games for the PS3 on my PS2. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | I bet they make the list next week. They had CoH for $20 at Best Buy last week and you could get out the door for $14.99+tax if you used the $5 Gamer Gift card coupon on it. I picked up two gift cards and two copies of the game myself. One for me and one for a Christmas present to a friend. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Convenience costs money man! Of course, they don't have to keep the inventory on site, pay the cashier to ring up your purchase, or have the manager order stock when the supply gets low...who was the convenience factor in favor of again? Flag this | Edit this post |

| | How exactly is it bad juju to get more from your console? I've been an avid user of HDLoader for a long time now and I love how fast my games (all bought and paid for) load from the hard drive. If the end user decides to pirate games, then that's bad juju for them. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Users should have the right to hack any and all DRM for content they've legally acquired. I purchased my PS2 and if I want to hack it, burn it, throw it off a bridge, etc. then that's my choice. It's not like I'm leasing the hardware from Sony. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Do I get to backup the authentication server which is necessary for the game to run too. Also, when you buy digital downloads (if you're able to backup your files in the first place) and backup your files; you do realize that a stamped disc is a bit more archival quality than your $0.25 DVD recordable disc right?

| | Wow! They're taking a lesson from the old Intel. Make a CPU that's slower than what the competition is making and then make a new motherboard requirement for each revision of the same basic CPU architecture. Too bad they don't have enough market share to force OEMs to use their chips exclusively by offering deep discounts on their products. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | Loosing hundreds of dollars of games when the company you bought them from goes bankrupt and the authentication servers go dark, having to phone home to big brother every single time you launch a game (even a single player one...here's to you HL2), yet another password to remember for each company's game download service, waiting for days to get the chance to play your new purchase because millions of fans are trying to pull the same file from the same location, and paying full price (or more since the effects of competition are null for purely digitally distributed content...e.g. Sin on Steam for Full price while Best Buy and Circuit City have it for half what it costs Online) for information that comes sans backup solution and printed instruction manual.

| | Because we don't live in a world that thinks fair use rights are worth anything. Why do you think people continue to put up with this DRM BS? IMO the fair use rights of owners (not licensees...I didn't license my money to the content holders after all) should trump the DMCA when it comes to a legal contest. Flag this | Edit this post |
