    CDs on the way out?

    Works for zune.net & other subscription services; the catch is that as soon as you stop subscribing, the DRM stops you from accessing the music you've downloaded. It's not quite the service described, but it's close. I've been a subscriber for zune's service for a while & love it. It's...

    It turns it into a dual boot machine & it's really just for tinkerers.

    New slim PS3 announced, removes "install other OS" option, price drop

    PS1 backwards compatibility has not been removed from any PS3 model. It's PS2 that's the issue.

    PS3 or XBox 360

    Good old HTF, the look may change, but the arguments are the same ones from the past 8 years.

    The 360 is getting a price drop, it's not a one week deal.

    Playstation 3 Rumors

    This feels like a blast from the past. There are two models currently available for the PS3. The 40GB has no backwards compatibility whatsoever at this time. The 80GB has some compatibility which is done via software and hardware. There is some of the PS2 chipsets physically present on the...

    Playstation 3 Rumors

    Not quite. The 60GB has a PS2 chipset basically inside, making it 100% compatible. The 80GB has part of the PS2 chipset included, but not all of it - it relies on software emulation for the missing chipset, which is why it's not 100%. It's not a pure software emulation - if Sony had that, the...

    Playstation 3 Rumors

    That's often the case, Michael, yes. It's easy to remove the installed space and the next time you play the game you'll have to install it again. Some games handle it without really telling you what it's doing, others explicitly say they're installing to the harddrive etc.

    GTA IV

    Look, games hardware fails. It happens. You're saying GTA has code inside it capable of killing PS3s?

    Looking at these headphones...how would they integrate with xBox?

    You're limited to headsets approved by Microsoft for the 360. You could use those as headphones but not as a headset for playing on Xbox Live. The headsets have to attach to the little connector on the controller there so normal PC headsets won't work.

    GTA IV

    The gameplay is identical.

    GTA IV

    It'd be absolutely useless as you can't use bluetooth headsets with the 360, just the PS3. There are wireless headsets for the 360, but not bluetooth per se.

    xBox or PS3? Plus...what to buy?.....etc!

    Wrong. There's two benefits to a gold membership - playing online, and getting free content immediately (silver members have to wait a week to download new demos etc). That's it. Silver members still get to download demos, buy DLC, download free DLC, play XBLA titles etc.

    It may still be his vision, but he's no longer "the Sony guy". Phil Harrison resigned from Sony.
