I guess they've gotten creative with the meaning of leading?

I don't mean to troll, but are they heralding the ability to download HD movies and play online games? I guess it's sort of new that a console can do both, but this isn't exactly something new otherwise.

 

I can actually do that on my PS3 right now, so I don't think that's the shift that they are talking about, though I admit I don't know what is.

 

No, you can't. He's talking about Netflix. And Netflix is just like icing on the cake, NXE offers so much more. Tomorrow's the big day ;)

Actually I already do stream Netflix to my PS3.

Sorry, that's not the same as the patnership with Netflix and Microsoft.

 

Wow, damage control is strong today.  :)

Good for MSFT...still it is over hyping the situation. I have the NXE and it is no b/w to color TV revolution.

 

How did you get the NXE and yet do not have an avatar uploaded to your profile?  It is mandatory.  Did you disconnect from Live after downloading the update or something?
