Ok, this RRoD issue is clearly like some sort of rallying call to the PS3 fanboys, so just to make it clear, as if this hasn't been said a million times before, the RRoD was a big problem withe the Xenon 360 but has since mostly been cleared up by motherboard revisions. I say mostly because you are still going to get a certain level of hardware falure on any product so yes, it still happens, but so do PS3 hardware failures. To underline the point i was talking to a friend who works in a game shop (gamestation) about the hardware failure rate and he said that, other than with the original Xenon model (which obviously dies all the time, though is covered by the warranty) the PS3 and 360 have about an even failure rate with perhaps the PS3 being a little worse due to a growing number of Blu Ray drive failures. This is obviously a very small poll as it relates to one shop so i would be interested to hear if this is reflected elsewhere. If you work in a games shop what's your experience?
Also not sure what the point is about the Japanese and Atari as wern't they an American company?

I did, in fact, state that I had forgotten wifi. I also stated that the wifi peripheral from Microsoft was ridiculously overpriced.

And still, everything mentioned are features.

- free online gaming has hindered content availability. It's potential sounds better "on paper", but with 1/10th the content you could unbelievably make the argument "You get what you pay for."

- Having a larger Hard Drive option does not make the other one not upgradeable. Tomorrow, the Xbox could release a 500GB Hard Drive; so that feature is meaningless.

- Browser & Region Free are features. It's nice, but the same can be argued about any feature specific to each platform - be it the Virtual Console, NXE, Motion-Orbs, Natel. I don't know why this is so hard to understand? The Cell-processor does not in any way create a new a way to play discs overseas, and it's greatness is not required to harness the might of the World Wide Web.

Besides, how would either of the above features benefit Tecmo? The company addressing the post. The browser isn't increasing the install base, and region-free would only eat into their profit margin.

Although I do like how everyone calls me a liar because I said I saw defective PS3's. Maybe they were both rushed, maybe neither were rushed. They could even be all fixed now. I don't know. I don't work there anymore. It doesn't matter. I saw a good number of defective PS3's months after launch. Believing that an electronic device can be so advanced, & at the same time, never break is quite a bold statement....to say the least.

.....What confused me was the statement about superior technology. For as meaningless as my "rant" must sound, no one has been able to tell me how it is actually superior. How does it Go Faster, Shade better, Crunch more Polygons, hold more textures in its RAM, Produce more Lifelike A.I, generate higher resolution, or in any way create an experience I can't find somewhere else.....That would be considered superior tech.

You can't just gloss over the parts you don't like just because you don't have an answer. What do expect? Calling me a liar/fanboy, while ignoring my question, & I'll just look at it, enraged, & forget that nothing was addressed? At best, restated.

They really are exactly the same system.
