Have you done it? Nothing on Guitar Hero III multiplayer even comes close to a full group playing at one time in Rock Band. It's immensely fun. As far as the note charts go, Rock Band's might be somewhat easier, but I'm not sure if you can count all of Guitar Hero III's scales and solos with...

Completely disagree. Multiplayer on RB blows GH3 out of the water; it isn't even close. DLC on GH3 is practically non-existant, which for a game overloaded on a certain genre isn't such a good thing. RB DLC is cheaper, as well, and you don't have to buy packs if you don't want to. After...

Rock Band does indeed look awesome, especially the drum mode. Hopefully they can reign in the accessory prices a little...

He asked that because he wanted to know if Desmond was his "replacement." Hence the "what did one Snowman say to the other snowman" question.

Well, I think you're wrong on all counts, but whatever. You don't care about this? Suit yourself. The twist is that Penny Widmore hired the two guys to find huge electromagnetic pulses, like the ones that happen when you don't push a button every 108 minutes. She must have guessed her...

You're not missing something. There is no way HDTV is more prevalent than wifi. Wifi is pretty common now. Maybe not wifi ISPs that blanket cities, but home wifi routers are all over the place.

Exactly, you can still get HD over component with the $500 model. I highly doubt Sony is going to stick to their "only full resolution Blu-ray dvd output over hdmi" stance, as it leaves out a large percentage of users who currently have an HDTV. But yes, to get the pure digital connection...

Not going to happen. Sony is betting the farm on Blu-ray.

A few analysts have made possible cases for Nintendo selling Wii at or below $200. I'm not really worried, Nintendo knows it has to stay reasonable to hit the expand the market like they are aiming for. My guess is $250.

I don't deny that this could go very badly very quickly for Sony. It's either going to pay off extremely well, or it will crash and burn.

Exactly. The Wii shouldn't be compared to ANY other system. It's out to make games fun again. Nintendo isn't competing on the same battleground this time, it's branching out.

However, this is just your perspective (and the perspective of many gamers without hdtvs and a strong source of income). There is also a large amount of people who have been waiting just for this, myself included. Also, at the bitrates these high definition players are pushing pixels, the...

Sony included Blu-ray for their machines as a way to help them win the format war with HD-DVD. It's a pretty good strategy, as the PS3 as a Blu-ray player will cost significantly less than most of their standalone players. They'll have a fairly nice installed base that will be buying Blu-ray...

You know the red, white, and yellow connectors you use to connect your consoles or dvd players to your television? Well, that's an analog connection. For HD-capable systems, they also have analog connectors, only there are now 5 colored cables instead of 3. This provides very good picture...

Here is the breakdown. Your bittorrent client (Azuerus, etc) is legal. Having this program is perfectly fine. Downloading torrent files and sharing legal, not copyrighted files is also fine. Downloading copyrighted materials (movies, tv shows, etc...) are about 99% of the time not legal...
