The Xbox 1 was dumped because nVidia was no longer producing the GPU needed
for the Xbox to even exist. It was nVidia's decision, not Microsoft's. Also,
the Xbox had a better install base than the Gamecube and it had no effect on
the system being 'dumped.' Buried as inaccurate.

Remember Minidisc and Betamax? Buried as false propaganda.

Gears of War is not TWO system sellers, it is only one. Microsoft has Halo
3, Gears of War, Bioshock, Crackdown (and people really love this game),
Lost Planet, Dead Rising, Project Gotham Racing, Forza Motorsport 2 and
Saint's Row as system-selling exclusives that are already available (with
the exception of Halo 3 coming in a matter of weeks). It has Mass Effect,
Lost Odyssey, Splinter Cell Conviction, Fable 2 coming as more
system-selling exclusives. On XBLA, it has Bomberman Live (as pathetic as it
seems) as the greatest multiplayer game exclusive to the 360. So far, the
system sellers the Sony fanbase was expecting out of Warhawk, Lair and
Heavenly Sword are anything but that. Buried as ill-informed propaganda.

It's a major pain to put a console in a ready-made box and bringing it to
the post office? You must have been one hell of an idiot student. Buried as
pure stupidity.

Oblivion is worse on the PS3 and every reviewer thinks so.. your opinion as
a twat means nothing in comparison to dozens of experienced >reviewers.

What? Unless you're referring to the lack of DLC for Oblivion on the
PS3, the professional reviews pretty much all say that the PS3 version
is _slightly_ better looking and better running than the Xbox 360
version. Please show proof that "every reviewer thinks" that
Oblivion's base game is worse on the PS3, in terms of comments (the
scores will be lower, of course, because of the lack of DLC for the
PS3).


While the DLC does come into play, the BR allows for all of that content. But as for smoother running, yes because of data duplication to make load times faster. It didn't add to the quality of the graphics though. I couldn't imagine a game (as an example) on the PS3 that would be 20gig in size and scope of something like Oblivion. The load times would make it seem like years compared what a 12x DVD drive (or even the 16x + drives) can do. If the PS3 didn't duplicate the data, the load times would have been horrendously slow, since it can only read @ 2X.
