That's a terrible justification. STDs are free too, you know.

Not if you get them from a hooker.

Amen, brother.  Amen.

I don't think they charge for them, so they are essentially free.

Try going to a fancy resturaunt (like McDonald's) and try getting the free refill.  Yeah, it's essentially free but you still have to buy something to get that free refill.

What I'm trying to say is that I got herpes from the McDonald's soda machine.



1. Mine only RROD once but our phat PS3 also died so.

2. Kinect games are way too expensive. Should be $39Can

3. no wifi support on first gen 360 :P

4. you have to be a goldmember to be on Facebook and Netflix...



@d21lewis  if we were making a list of mistakes made with PS3 it would be a long ass list. no rumble in controllers, too expensive, Spider-man movie lettering being used (whoever thought about that should have been fired), etc. luckily most of the problems have been fixed.

I would say the X clamp design resulting in RROD.  That's obvious.  Besides that, what is the stupidest?

http://gameplaytoday.com/features/general-features/4889-the-stupidest-mistakes-microsoft-made-with-the-xbox-360

Launching without the hard drive.

I don't think this has really hurt them this gen.

Mismanagement of first-party developers

Yup, piss poor.

Lack of policying on Xbox Live

Policing? do you mean ...

No controller option for Kinect

I'm sure it'll come.

Choosing DVD-9

No, would have significantly raised 360's price.

No Killer Instinct relaese from Rare

Meh, MK FTW

No Web browser

Less than 0.10% of people online would use it ...

No wi-fi built in till 2010

Yeah I agree it needed it.

I can't wait for E3 its going to be a good one hopefully. I have enjoyed all of them except last years which was extremly dull. 



my main gripes.

The d-pad is atricous.  Makes 2D gaming worse.

Another is no HDMI input on all models.  It's like early adopters are being punished.



Pixel Art can be fun.

this one not a mistake but wth is firebird studios making??????

 

and mistake microsoft manamgenet of first party went downhill when shane kim left :(
