  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut I'm not asking for launch titles to take full advantage of the console. I'm asking that games launched with a "Next Generation" to look better than games currently available on the GameCube. That is not …
  • Quote: Originally posted by webmail And you got this anti-ms information where? I thought that it was general knowledge that Microsoft tried to muscle out the third party controller companies with the XBox360. They have to go through Microso…
  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut These units have a pathetic >90< day warrantee. I would say that the ones which received DOA models are the lucky ones. Not much consumer electronics comes with more than a 90 day warranty anymo…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Splinemodel The real irony here is that with the floating point ridiculousness the PS3 claims to offer, the engine renders are problably as good as any cutscene short of the highest-budget production. I somehow dou…
  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut You see this is the problem - this doesn't seem like your regular 1st run production problems - it seems a lot like they tried to shit this puppy out and do a world wide launch before christmas. You've go…
  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut Well you wouldn't be getting a 1st rev hardware. Sony is releasing it in Japan first in the spring. You have a point, there were more bugs plaguing the Japanese release of the Playstation 2 than the N…
  • Quote: Originally posted by e1618978 The difference between the digital video out of the PS3 and the analog video out of the 360 will also be huge - just look at the quality differences when we all moved from analog VGA to digital DVI on our comp…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Xool While I have a general anti-MS bias, I don't feel these initial quality control problems are a major issue. Some are to be expected. If these problems get worse and keep appearing in later production then there …
  • Quote: Originally posted by the cool gut Well, you see - there lies the problem. They rush the games, they rush the release - what was the point? They have practically blown their first to market advantage. Everything that is run by suits i…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Elixir the disk format is not a huge advantage. 3 maybe 4 publishers max would take advantage of that disk format. I remember reading about a company that was already saying one of their Xbox360 games was going to…

  • Quote: Originally posted by ZO I dunno, thats what I've read on multiple sites. Maybe if you connect to the tracker using port 6889, and then you change to port 10,000 that specific track will take 24 hours to update itself. More likely mayb…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha Agreed, but if you're *only* doing an en masse back up, you *DON'T* care where files are stored, do you? When you're backing up your mail, for example, you don't care about which mail message is stored where, …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Project2501 Second thing is securing, if there is something I don't want to share with world it's in my FileVault protected home directory. Idea for password protected folders is sort of backwards thinking, you should…
  • The other option would have been to use a FAT32 drive as an intermediate. Copy files to the FAT32 drive, plug it into the Linux server, copy them over. Repeat as many times as necessary.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Splinemodel Getting back to something that really irked me, it's also true that parallelism can vastly decrease latencies if the implementation is elegant, and Carmack is just plain wrong if his sentiment is precisely …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Telomar The iPod uses 2 chips 16Gb chips, they are 2GB each. Samsung has shown 16Gb and 32 Gb chips, or 2GB and 4GB. They are nowhere near 128Gb, or 16GB as people seem to think here, and flash will never compete wit…
