I love the Skate series...but they really do need to work on the amount of bugs/glitches and AI in the game. Also, how about a more intuitive way to do lip tricks on a half pipe.

@Ford Tempo Fanatic: The IS, GS, and LS don't share a platform with any Toyota. Pre-2006, they were just rebadged Toyotas (Altezza, Aristo, Celsior) but that's not true any more. For the ES, RX, GX and LX it still is true.

@Ford Tempo Fanatic: People always remember to call a Lexus or Scion a Toyota and yet, when it comes to trying to name an exciting car (which admittedly is scarce) from Toyota, no one ever tries to expand their thoughts in to either of the other brands.

@emcglone316: If you choose any of the big name brands, you generally can't go wrong. Personally I game on a Pioneer Kuro PDP-LX5090 (Plasma) and I LOVE IT. Don't forget to calibrate your TV when you get it! And remember, TVs aren't purchased too often...so don't feel bad about splurging.

@Orochi_Yagami: Unless your backing up your entire harddrive to an SD or USB Flash Drive, you can't copy protected save data (Rock Band, SFIV, etc).

@surft: Yup, an add-on to a console like Natal will be a great way to boost sales. Add-ons for greater functionality haven proven themselves in the past like the Sega-CD and the N64 expansion pack.

@rainofwalrus: Sorry, even if the MKV Supra (FT-HS) was to be manufactuered, I'd take the LF-A in a heartbeat. :)

Question: What was the failure rate for the PS2? What is the failure rate of the 360 AFTER 2 years?

@deliciousburglar: I learned my lesson alright, always early adopt a Playstation product. Memory card reader, 4 USB ports, backwards compatibility, it's all there!

Microsoft didn't explicitly say 10-year life span, but I seriously doubt the 360 was designed for a long life. The hardware barely pushed the technological envelope when it was released...not to mention the sub-par build quality on the damn thing.

That sucks. Usually people incorrectly blame their hardware for a loss...I guess this time they really can blame faulty hardware. :(

@HingeThunder: Paying £2.20 a month for LIVE is NOT the same as paying £40 for 6 months of LIVE. If it WAS the same, then everyone would understand that the cheapest of the two consoles is easily the PS3 and would never use the argument that the PS3 is too expensive (even at launch price).

@senselocke: I hate when people say Microsoft owns up to their hardware failures like it's some sort of favor.

@Tevor_the_Third: Probably trolling but I'll bite. A mouse is most DEFINITELY not a mouse. I've been using an MX 518 since 2005 or so. The ergonomics are so damn good (for a right handed person that is) that I feel woefully inadequate with a "standard" mouse. Having the ability to quick switch windows and use the

@Deto: You ever try giving your PS3 controller or 360 controller to your wife/girlfriend/parents so that they can control the movie? Doesn't work that great.

@Kazutoyo: Want to know a secret? As a launch 60GB owner, I almost NEVER use the PS2 backwards compatibility feature.
