that freaked you out?  why?

 


Because I actually wanted one and couldn't believe how easily that happened. Ran over tons of speed bumps while blasting music through a CD player, moved my PS3 and old PS2 with games inside before. Never had this problem with a PSP UMD. Yet this happened so easily and quick. 

@disolitude

Total not the case here, dude. I looked at the first page of the MS forums and nothing. Would assume a thread about this wouldn't disappear that quickly.

so now you wont get one because you cant move it around while playing a disc?  why would anyone do that anyway?



Point is that shit happens. Having kids in the house is the easiest way to have it happen.

Plus the Kintect plugs into the back. What say you when someone has to plug or unplug it while they already have the 360 running? Right there you need to move the console.

I pity those who live in California.

Thank goodness it has that 250g hard drive now so you can install the games. Drive doesnt spin except on startup once installed.

 

Sheesh

 

This has went from a community of gamers to a group of bitchers/moaners/fanboys.

its not fun trying to find news sifting through the crap anymore.

This isn't an issue unless.

A. Theres an earthquake whilst you're playing a game.

B. You're an idiot.

Why does Microsoft have to idiot proof their console again?



Tease.

I mean seriously, I don't why people are making such a big deal about this.

It is pretty well known that you shouldn't shake a console while using it.  It is also known that you don't shake babies.

Damn right! There are more than enough PS3 fanboys already.

Kind of sad you are the only one to notice.

this forum is FULL of negative 360 threads started by non 360 owners  in the last 20 hours...   not sure the opposite will be tolerated.

let me just say, that the mod queue is overflowing and we really can't do much about it either way for any system. We ban everyone and the place just goes downhill, but then again we let it go and people get upset. It also doesn't help that the mods are trying to watch the shows and stuff...

E3 is just a supercharged time of year with people getting their yearly troll quota out. Things will hopefully settle down over the next few days.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

ps3 is a tank...I don't it can move even if it

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?


Wow, I was so out of it this morning. I guess that is what happens when you sleep that little after studying for investment finance.

I think I meant to say Ps3 is a tank, I don't think it can move, if you event tried to knock it over.

you are getting closer. Keep trying and eventually you'll put out a complete sentance without comma splices or wrong words!!

I am not sure what is dumber, the fact someone picks up a 360 while it is on and shakes it or someone is surprised it won't work if you do that?!

Damn, no buy for me then. I love moving my consoles around while playing.
