| Nintendo would still be able to compete, if this happened. Sony, however, would slowly get pushed out.
Nothing would happen overnight though. |

| I'd be worried about the industry if this happened. Competition, in any industry, is a good thing.
EA has grown into some kind of monster. | |

| Cool - but why would you need to buy a new one? And what people that bought one within the past year or two have had issues? | |

Um well let's see why don't you take a look at that thread and tell me all the times that someone mentions buying a 'backup', which is a ridiculous thought if you think about it. You buy a TV, should you buy a backup just in case the original goes out? Or in buying a TV, would you pick the one that has known electrical flaws and has a pretty good probability of going out? Hell no! Microsoft has brainwashed yall. It's a tragedy, really. Shouldn't you be demanding a better product before you buy it?

BUT, I have read people will go to walmart and buy an arcade system and use it for a few weeks until they get theirs back and then return for a full refund.
And like I said - I don't know of many or any for that matter - bought in the past 1.5ish years that have gotten a rrod. Mine is one of those purchased in that time frame. | |

| Why is it that people who prefer the ps3 feel the need to talk no stop crap about the 360 and those who prefer it? Honestly now, is it an inferiority complex, or some unbalanced form of buyers remorse?
I have both, and other than blueray movies it hasn't been used for 3 or 4 months, and only then because i was bored and played the show for a bit.

And unless you post on VN outside with a laptop, then maybe you should get some sun as well. Just a thought.
