Okay, I'm going to try to explain this as clearly as I can since I have dealt with this before:

Actually, you got a pretty good deal, considering the stuff that was in the bundle. Was it the best deal? No. However, considering that the system plus the Wiimote would have put you at about $340, you got a good deal.

Ooh...Fire Emblem: Awakening for $14.99? What a deal! What's that...the nearest Best Buy that has it in-stock is 35 miles away? And it is in-store pickup only?!

I wasn't saying that it wouldn't be cheaper here; it undoubtedly will be, since both systems cost less here. It just seemed as if you were missing the point of the conversion, that based on the UK prices of both the PS4 and Vita, they would screwed since they would be paying $800 USD no matter what. Yeah, $400 + $200…

*Reads note*

Actually, if you do a straight conversion, you will end up with about $818 USD for the bundle. Even if you take the individual prices of the PS4 (£349) and the Vita (£140) and convert them, you will end up with $571 and $229 (respectively). Add these two numbers together and guess what you get: $800 USD, which still…

Let's see....

My mother and I are HUGE Star Trek fans (she was the one who got me watching the show) and we saw Into Darkness together. Before the movie, we thought about what characters, other than Khan, that Benedict Cumberbatch could be playing, since we agreed that Khan would be a bit too obvious.

Case-only boxes are found on eBay all the time. In fact, I have purchased some myself. Some collectors just want a case/box to add to their collection. If eBay prohibits these sales, they are not trying hard enough. I mean, I think that almost every game and console has an equivalent sale for just the box.

It was part of an Xbox 360 pilot program to get people playing the console. However, the catch I mentioned was covered at numerous places, including Kotaku.

Games are pushing for better graphics and more immersion. However, all of that goes down the drain when your eyes are being dragged to the corner of the screen in order to look at a map. What's the point of having a game run at 1080p when you are looking down at the corner?

Several retailers will be selling the $99 Xbox bundle, such as Kmart and Toys R. Us. HOWEVER, I don't recommend the $99 bundle because there is a HUGE catch. In order to get the deal, you have to sign up for two years of Xbox Live at a monthly rate of $15.00. If you add this up, you will be spending $360 for the…

As a person who repairs consoles, I can honestly say that I have seen some pretty infested consoles. The fact that YOU didn't see anything by the time your console came back doesn't mean that your console was clean. Often, Sony only has to find a few bugs in there before they decide to pass on it. This is especially…

I'm a professional Brawl player, and yes, I do take Brawl a little seriously.

While this is true, the switch to lead-free solder in electronics happens several years ago. It didn't start with the last gaming generation. Also, the problem with lead-free is not just that it would melt, but also because it cannot stand the constant expansion/contraction caused by the 360 (or the PS3 for that…

Well, this is kinda the reason why I don't get new consoles right away. I've also spent plenty of time repairing game consoles and I have learned that for all of the good things that Sony and Microsoft do right, they also do a lot of things wrong. I wouldn't be surprised if my former boss calls me in saying that he…

I don't know about the PS4, but in the PS3, there was a temperature sensor located in the that CPU the monitored how hot the chips got (I expect the PS4 to have the same thing; I just don't know where it is). When the temperature exceeded a certain amount, the system would throw an error message. If that temperature…

The only other thing that would have caused that 2-light RROD is bad thermal compound, which Microsoft is never going to admit to anyone's face. They go by the error and the error alone and since the 2-light RROD is a very generic overheating error, Microsoft wasn't going to try to fix it. The thermal compound that…

Well, to be fair, overheating can be caused by lots of things (from the environment to the condition of the system itself). Its simpler to warn the user of the issue first before shutting down completely. The PS4 will still shut down if it is overheating, but it will warn you first. If you don't turn it off and the…

That argument wasn't a red herring; its a valid, non-fallacious point. I mean, I have a Vita and a pretty decent router, so I think the Remote Play would work pretty well for me. I also have a WiiU and can honestly say that if I walk into the next room, I start to have connection issues.
