Leading console repair company responds to reports in today's tabloids that Microsoft's Xbox 360 Elite consoles are also experiencing major overheating problems with 'hundreds of users' reportedly getting the dreaded 'red ring of death'.
While Treyarch has seemingly already killed off the current Call of Duty Zombies crew, there may be more to their fate than meets the eye.
The Witcher 3 released a special item for its 10th anniversary, and it's hopefully a sneak peek at The Witcher 4's launch plans.
The "New Wild Hunt Release" that they are referring to are the controllers, and wanting to see more stuff like special edition controllers for The Witcher 4.
I just received the xb controller and while it's nice looking, the packaging was a total fail. An unbranded plain brown box. Not even a themed box like Doom got, or at least a regular looking box. Just a plain brown box.
Oh, and a 10th anniversary sticker in the box too.
That sucks about the packaging, I'm glad you like the controller at least. The last controller that I bought I would put back in the box at the end of the gaming session.
Everything this site does is a bait to absorb ad revenue... we need to reform our submission process. We need a quality litmus test.
Vapourware can end up being the stuff of legend, like Rockstar's Agent, Star Wars 1313, or StarCraft: Ghost. Without ever seeing the light of day, these games never risked the possibility of being played and forgotten, and instead live on forever as the subjects of lengthy YouTube essays.
Still, Molyneux's most notable lost game (or tech demo, depending on who you asked at the time) was arguably Project Milo.
I can see the potential of the kinect hardware... its rather impressive tech, but it was just not meant to be for gaming. If anything, MS had a huge missed opportunity to have used it for the AR/VR projects.
You can use the Kinect as an SLS camera for paranormal investigations. So it wasn’t a complete failure.
Remember Star Wars Kinect announcement? Biggest laughable acting seen
"Unfortunately, as we were developing Milo, so the Kinect device was being developed. And they realised that the device that Alex Kipman first showed off would cost $5,000 for consumers to buy.
"So they cost-reduced that device down to such a point, where the field-of-view...I think it was a minuscule field-of-view. In other words, it could only just see what's straight in front of you."
Hmm, exactly what tech was in it, that was cut, affected the development? It was only ever interpreting visual and audio inputs right? The xbox was processing those inputs.
Nor do I see how the field of view thing is relevant to the discussion.
Exactly! Tf kinda BS statement was that? i don't really see how fov is relevant at all, since when do you move all around a room while talking/interacting to someone?
This is entirely untrue. There was never a 5000 dollar Kinect prototype that could somehow use a wider field of view to scan and import generated in-game items and advance AI by over a decade. Anybody that fell for this was a stupid moron child, myself included. Anybody that falls for this lie now is a stupid moron child who doesn't realize that these people *only* know how to lie.
Though it's an Elite, it still carries the standard overheating problem that many other 360 systems out there have had to deal with.
Why should an Elite be any different ?? its just a 360 sprayed black with a massively overpriced hard drive, so this story comes as no surprise.
It's quieter than my Halo 3 Edition console *which was a lot quieter than my first gen Premium* and it's also very cool. Doesn't really heat up until it's been on for AGES!
I don't know anyone who just gets RROD'd for no reason. Ventilate your damn console idiots.
Yes, because the flaw is due to internal design, so all 360's can potentially die, it's not limited to "launch" consoles and never has been, so are just worse off than others due to additional heatsinks in leater models, but they can still RRoD at a higher rate than any other electronic device.
Here you go trolls have all the space to spread your fanboy bullsh1t you need .....
