PS3 - X-Box 360 - Nintendo Revolution

my bet is on the xbox360, it will rock the console world, but alot of people will buy a ps3 when it comes also since they got the xbox360. the nintendo will be the losing part again thats for sure... i am defently going to buy the xbox360, the xboxs is the 2005 amiga thats for sure

when pirates & hackers get their hands on the xbox360, we will see something like the whdload for the amiga on the xbox360. then all older xbox games will work. getting patches and other stuff shouldnt be to hard either when the xbox360  is modified..


anyway another thing that ps3 fanboys should worry about is the copyprotection on ps3 games..

Sony will make a patent that ensure no game would be playable from any other ps3 console, other than the one in which it was first read on.

 

so if your brand new ps3 blueray dvd get broken and you get a new one. all of your 10-40 games will not work anymore, no more loaning/swapping games with your friends or selling used games on ebay..

i guess this is a big blow under the belt for the ps3 fanboys.. and it sure makes the xbox360 an more attractive choice..

While Sony has that patent, I don't think they will use it. Otherwise the rental industry would crash. Also, wouldn't the disc have to be re-writeable for that to happen? That would cost way too much.

sorry to wake you up and burst your dream bobble, but the rental industry as you know it, was back in the n64 and ps1 time. sony dont make money on rentals and they sure dont care about the rental industry they dont benefit from. how they will get this patent to work i dont know but companies today pay anything to get their stuff protected. i am sure sony will have this protection, and making the games only work on the ps3 they are first read on. money aint the problem for sony, getting games copyed and lose money/control over them, that is a problem for sony. everyone knows that consol makers earn their money from games, not their consoles..

Also, I don't think people are gonna hack the 360 to play original XBOX games that are on their HD, unless they hack it to bypass copy protection and run a back-up of an original xbox game. Also the article mentions something that leaves open a major security vunerability...people can burn upgrades to disc and execute that code? That's insane but will make the 360 the "hacker's" choice with a quickness.

first of all you will not need to hack the hw to run older xbox games on the xbox360 it is all done in software. i see you mention major security vunerability, but you seems to forget this is a consol and not pc with winxp, there is a big diffrent. now that said i am wondering if you know the diffrent between a hacker and a cracker?... if not you better look it up. becouse the fud you are trying to spread you can keep for you self, you have no credibility whats so ever...

i sure hope the xbox360 will be the "hacker's" choice with a quickness. becouse that was the reason in the first place , why xbox become as popular it is today..
