But the Netflix is AWESOME. It works way beyond what I thought it would. My connection is nothing special, but in about 30 seconds I was streaming a movie effortlessly and with a WAY better picture quality than I was anticipating.
I am VERY impressed with this feature - and the best part is, it's a feature that actually made Xbox Live free, essentially, as I dropped my movies out at a time from 3 to 2, since I'll watch so many on Live. The money saved covers Gold, and we have a winner. Well done by Netflix and MS on that one. |
Netflix and game installs have made the 360 like ten times more awesome.
I'm going to start calling it the netfliX box.
We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai
It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps
We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
