    Yes, but it sold, and it was playable. ET was such an utter disappointment that i believe i read somewhere there was a garbage dump with mounds of the cartridges just piled high

    Blizzard is one of the very few companies I know of that actually bump a deadline in order to "get it right."

    Killzone 2 was supposed to be a launch title. It was pushed back 2 years to "Get it right"

    ET was a major player in the near-death of video games. This being slashdot, I'm sure everyone knows the story behind that.

    Which isn't going to happen because the games are pretty damn awesome. Cod4 Modern Warfare was a definite step in the right direction for Infinity Ward. With Cod Modern Warfare 2 coming out later this year, I'm expecting another GotY Call of Duty.

    Agreed with this. This needs to come to WM.

    though my phone doesnt have the ability to read barcodes, i'd be happier than hell to input the barcode manually....

    Then again... there's not really any decent movies worth downloading that have come out recently anyhow.

    Why? because nothing in this world is free, and if you happen to find something that is, well then that changes and you get charged up the rear end for it.

    That's not a terrible idea. There have been a number of times that I've sent an email with the body of text saying "here's the report you asked for" and forgot to attach it. which made me feel like an idiot.

    Every system has its share of bugs. Take the NES, Damn flashing Pink screen when you put a cartridge in, Take out, blow in it, repeat. Granted that's an easy fix.

    The 360 on the other hand, Seems RIDDLED with problems. This being one in a LONG list of them. If you have to pretty much cross your fingers, toes and any other extremity on your body when you turn the system on and hope and pray you don't get an error, well that to me seems like it's a poor investment. God forbid you sit down for an afternoon of gaming, shut down the machine, and turn it back on and you get the RRoD or now, the e74.
