"We (extremetech.com)love the Xbox 360, we really do. The games are great, the Xbox Live service just can't be beat, Live Arcade games and the Video Marketplace are pretty cool, and-we never thought we would say this-at $400 it's actually cheaper than its main competitor. As great as we think the 360 is, we're not above pointing out some of its flaws. We already discussed the horrible noise the system makes when reading game discs at full 12X DVD speed, and even tried to mod our 360 to make it quieter. That operation was partly successful, but I'm afraid there's nothing we can really do about the problem we'll discuss today."
This could be fun as they make great tables. Go big or go extinct. Prime your senses for a neural handshake and step into the cockpit of a Jaeger. It is on you to cancel the apocalypse when Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX on May 16.
On Amazon, you can't get an RTX 4090 for less than this one from Gigabyte, which now offers great value after an eye-catching April deal.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
I have a dvd player. I got a PS 480 player for $30. I don't use my console for movies. The gaming gods prohibit me from doing so. I don't want to anger them.
DVD playback has never been great on the box. If you want a cheap DVD player get a PS2.
I noticed these problems before but didn't think much of it at the time. Glad its not just me.
Ok I have never had a problem with my console playing dvd's I think they look just fine, I actually they looked awesome, maybe it's just me? I don't know but yeah I would much rather NOT watch them on my console considering it will burn my laser out faster, I save it for games :)
Some people just have too much freakin' time on their hands. And LOL at the PS2 being a better DVD player....my old XBOX had 10x better playback than the crappy PS2.
