Also, ps3 didn’t use headphone jacks but accepted standard USB connected mics for wired, bluetooth for wireless, both open standards. no proprietary bullshit.

Old or not, 3.5mm jacks are still a standard, and can include extra functionality (I.e. iPhone earbuds have inbuilt volume buttons and mic).

Nah, they just didn’t want to pay the licensing fee, which turned out to be a bad idea as everyone freaked out (rightfully so)

I still have an original launch 60gb ps3, with a printed manual that shows you how to change the HDD with any non proprietary laptop size HDD. It was covered in warranty, and that has NEVER changed. The “arduous” reformatting was literally turning on the ps3, it detecting a new hdd, and it automatically reformatting.…

It’s because their first two consoles were full of proprietary bullshit, but they managed to get away with. Now that they’re failing (relativity speaking) MS has been forced into making changes.

Yeah, this douche is all kinds of wrong

Every 360, with the exception of the bare bones arcade model, came with a headset. They were cheap ass (lol I’m looking at mine now) but was one of the console’s often cited reasons for it’s popular online.

360 allowed expandable storage with replaceable hard drives, which is more than can be said of any other console of its generation. You could even use completely unlicensed third party hard drives, since the spec of the 360 drive connector was public domain, so many knock off 360 hard drives came to market, whereas…

What has Sony ever done that is proprietary? Their consoles have used USB and Bluetooth for connecting. Xbox has always had bullshit proprietary devices and extras you have to buy. PS2 had DVD, so did XBOX1 but you had to unlock it by buying a DVD remote. 360 had a horrible connection scheme, with giant propriatary…

I’m a guy, and even I knew that :P

I had a summer job doing deliveries for a flower shop, that also had a bridal salon. I used to have to pick them up from the dry-cleaners. I had no idea what they were for, so one of the girls had to explain to me, and correct me on the pronunciation of what I was calling “gremlins.” We had a good laugh.

BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Or Aspic *shudders*

They originally planned to do it Roger Moore style, but had to change plans when no one could find a slide-whistle

Yes. But not because they’re cops. Anyone can, and it’s called a citizen’s arrest. I’m constantly surprised at how many people have no clue what their rights are.

Or someone hack Chris Evans’ iCloud and release his nudie pics. Either is fine.

Umm, congratulations then, I guess? On your inability to read, or whatnot.

Yeah, afaik those are rare, but can be found anywhere. I saw a youtube video about a bum in Vegas who was very convincing, but someone saw him jump into a car, they followed him to his nice big house, in a nice area. Dude answered the door when they rang and started denying it. Don’t remember the rest.

Oh I didn`t realise you were that young, so now I totally understand how you felt at the time.

Ahh, that makes sense. I have a french background where literally everything is gender specific. No bullsiht “mailman is sexist!” because there`s already a word for either gender.
