Weis family is safe and sound. Thanks for your thoughts

Yeah, really rough stuff.

Family is safe & sound -- thanks Mango!

Well I figure there are not a lot of non gamers here

No..it is a matter of if the HDD fails...which they do.

dam straight mfer im keeping my 1 billion games for 10 years lol..

Cant say I didnt warn you Mango :)

You were right. Yoda, you are talking about someone that does not trade/sell/games and if I do it is a rarity.

Well I read somewhere that EA will support 360 until 2017, hopefully MS will go longer than that allowing us to reDL games

Yeah if we could ReDL games its somewhat okay, but we still lose our Game saves. But that really is crap. Screw 360 game BC, its the arcade games...

You would think this uber-powerful new processor could handle software emulation for arcade games. But noooo....

I will buy a bunch of HDDs and download my games to them, just like I now keep multiple phones for when games are removed from the Win Phone store.

I think that is going to be my plan as well...though the licensing issue will come up some day as well.

IMO that is.

Fair point. However I can't see myself buying another Playstation when my PS3 has collected so much dust since I bought it.

And the whole gamerscore and profile transfer which means a lot to me in terms of gaming, for whatever reason. OCD I guess!

Depends on what you use it for. I got my PS3 as a cheap BR player + 4 games. It's got more the JRPGs than the 360 has and a few other exclusives. But then, I just got it

a few months ago. Won't get a PS4 for quite a while, if at all. But the 1? Hell nah. I like Halo, but all the downsides make it a non-starter for me.

I don't really care about the used games but when i cant let my brother play a game in my own house because you want me to buy another copy well sir we have a problem.

has anyone else seen the comment by the M$ guy saying it wont always need to be online but will require an online connection. what does that even mean ?

I thought I read you can use the same disc in the same household. Not sure how that will work, however. Let's see some GAMES, MS.

Something about having to connect to the internet once every 24 hours, but not a constant connection. No idea why, though.

You can install the disc to as many consoles as you want, but it's account locked to one GT, so other tags can't play it. It needs a 24hr check in to make sure its still

locked to that one tag, or at least that's how I'm seeing it.

So basically if my girlfriend wants to play the same game on her tag, she has to shell out $60. What the F?
