No pics, just a story.
So I can't get multiplayer to work, I download four different patches, reinstall the game twice, and adjust the ehck out of all the computer settings and it still doesn't work. I hear on a forum that if you plug in something to the mic output jack, it will work. so I say "sure, whatever." So I plug some earbuds into the mic jack, and now it works! ridiculous, huh?

how is RROD 1337 speak, RROD is the biggest problems with XBOX360's and the reason i didn't buy one

RROD is an abbreviation for Red Ring of Death, you know when the gremlins in the 360's hardware come out to play

I can't believe the RRoD is still a reason people will not get 360's.

The RRoD has been fixed. Microsoft released the 360 "Falcoln", the pretty much rebuilt version of the rushed 360. Even if you do get the RRoD, you're guaranteed a 360 back + a month free Xbox Live.

Bad audio driver syndrome... get the latest version of the driver....
Or the hardware might have some problems with impedance sensing

so you have to build your own cooling system to get full use out of your console... hmm handy..... (sarcasm)

PS3's are ok, my mate has one and so does my sister and theirs never overheat, no problems with the PS3 from my mates and i hate playstation with a passion! so i will not be bias towards them at all!

N64 and the Sega Megadrive are the best consoles ever created Cool still got both in full working condition Smiley

They all have advantages and disadvantages. The PS3 uses a development system that is awkwardly different from the other systems(including PC) so that kept developers away from it for a while, although that seems to have been changed, by starting development on that PS3 system and porting it to the other consoles. Wich is a advantage for all, because downgrading higher quality models and textures usualy results in a better visual quality on the target system.

If I had built my new rig with a Bluray,added another vid card,perhapse more than the 4 gigs of memory I have now.....Runs 64bit Vista. I could almost say I have 2 PS3s. Ah what do I know....I like both but prefer the PC I built. I have always been better on a keyboard and mouse set up than i will ever be with the consoles. I saw somewhere awhile back that a keyboard and mouse were going to be available to the PS3. If so, I wonder if you could run the game console PC style? Hmmmmmm....
