Except lots of people already associate companies like Activision and EA with unadulterated corporate greed and it doesn't stop their games from selling tens of millions of copies. My point is that if Microsoft starts losing badly, they may drop the DRM, drop the online check, drop the price, then throw a bunch of

All the negatives aside, Halo and Forza are enough to get me to buy an Xbox One, whereas Sony doesn't really have anything exclusive that I want to play. The problem for Microsoft, though, is that I'm perfectly willing to wait a couple of years to buy an Xbox One when it's $300 and play Halo and Forza long after

Everything you say is valid, but I do think Microsoft would be willing and able to throw massive piles of money at exclusives if they had to in order to stay in the fight. Hell, they may have no choice after today...

Except I think there is an amount of developer moneyhatting that could lead Microsoft to victory. If they locked up franchises like CoD and Madden as exclusives (as difficult as that is to believe) I think they could be the ones putting Sony out of the console business. And it's yet to be seen who the publishers and

My God, I can't believe the way you guys are arguing about this. Face it, some of you thought the car fell on the guy and can't walk away from that knee-jerk assumption. This all happened because the guy dropped a radio and thought he could grab it before the recovery vehicle ran him over. End of story.

Unless you work for the FIA or Circuit Gilles Villenueve, I don't think you know for certain what the proper safety rules were. Like I said before, they lift the cars like this all the time. The one rule that we know for certain was ignored? Don't crouch down in front of a moving vehicle to grab a radio. You can argue

And none of that would have stopped the guy from dropping his radio and trying to pick it up from in front of a moving vehicle. That is, by far, the biggest mistake made in this incident.

Actually, Joystiq has a much better picture. It does have a disc drive.

It might just have a pop up lid.

See my other reply. They do this all the time. What they do not do is try to grab dropped radios from in front of moving recovery vehicles.

My point is that they lift the cars that high off the ground all the time without incident. And my original point that the car had nothing to do with the worker's death still stands. The guy died because he dropped his radio and made the (regrettably stupid) mistake of thinking he could grab it from in front of the

Yes, I do. See that red and white area at the bottom right? That's a tire barrier, which is doubtless in front of a concrete wall. They have them at every race track in the world, and they're typically placed at areas where drivers crash, which this guy did. Right into a tire barrier. Which you can see in the photo.

Except for the reason that they have to lift the cars high off the ground to clear the fences and tire barriers around the track. And if the vehicle is too low the driver of the recovery vehicle can't see anything in front of him.

At chest level the driver of the recovery vehicle wouldn't be able to see in front of him. Also, they lift the vehicle that high in order to clear the fences and tire barriers around the track.

I know, it's as if they didn't read the article. They lift the car's that high all the time. They have to in order to clear the various fences and tire barriers around the track.

Montreal does have the large cranes. They could be seen during the many helicopter shots.

The accident had nothing to do with the F-1 car. the track worker was run over by the recovery vehicle.

Inferno and JoyJoy are two of my favorite Indie games on Xbox 360. Everybody should check out his stuff.
