  Death of Xbox 360

  You know the deal. No 3 red yet but my 360 seems to be unplayable at this point as it feezes up shortly after being turned on.

  You know I love the system but it but you still have to feel that MS never handled this problem right. My system is only like two years old. I think it is sytem that has the newer CPU but not the newer GPU because one was changed before the other if you remember.

  Quite honestly anyone who does not have both the new chips should be entiled to get thier system upgraded to them for free.

  On another note I hoe whenever the next MS system does come out they concentrate a little more on quality of the hardware.

  PC Gaming Whimpers On

  Hard to believe but as people pointed out on this weeks Hotspot PC gaming is more and more in a bad way. If you had Asked me like 2 years ago I'd had disagreed but really this year I can't think of one PC game I will be getting this fall and even last year it was only a few.I don;t count WoW because the game is ancient at this point and it is only a purchase from a single company which hardly helps out the PC gaming industy, in fact you could say that its dominace has hindered if you think of all the other MMO's that came out since it and have failed, hint there were many.

  It does make me sad but at the same time I think that the PC gaming industry and the hardware industry have done everything they can to turn people away. Piracy aside the PC indusrty as whole has terrible bussiness model and have only just recently acknowledged such and some still do not. Its just really dumb to design games around top of line technology which only like maybe 1% of the largest installed user base in thew world even owns at any given moment. The there are the hardware manufacturers who churn out new stuff like every 3-4 months. Dumb again.

  I ould go on about this but really you can figure it out why its all bad and can easily see why it is failing.

  Just makes me wonder what, if any games I will buying for mt PC next year. A new Compnay of Heores? Not if they put out another dumbed down version like they did the last one, DoW2 expansion? Possibly but I felt that was dumbed down too.

  Don't know I hope it survives because consoles still do not do everything that can be done, especially from a user content level and RTS gaming but it is looking really bad right now.

  I hate Activsion

  This story was kind swept under the rug but the scum of the video game universe, Activision has decided to sue EA over Brutal Legend in attempt to basically steal the game from them after they clearly did not want it before. Fact is, and everyone knows it Activision chose to not publish the game, everyone knows it too but now that the game is near fisihed and has a buig buzz around it they want all of sudden want it. Personally I hope they not only lose this lawsuit but people stop buying thier mediocore games and overrated games. Can they sink any lower?
