There's no *technical* reason why you couldn't play any XBox game with XBox controllers on a PC right now.  It's all about marketing/money.

Correct, you'll have to restart your xbox in order for the download to start.

So, I got my new dashboard downloaded this morning, but didn't have time to do anything with it.  If the time estimate was correct, it only took about 10 minutes from turning it on to having it installed and ready to use.  I went to get ready for work after it got to the install phase so I'm not sure if it's 8 minute estimate was right or not.


After getting to work, I saw this little tidbit.  Just one more reason I get to say FUCK SONY!!

How fucking cheap of a move is this?  Do they really think this is going to get me to go buy a PS3?  If so, they're sorely wrong...

Jesus H. Christ, are you kidding me? This is about to kick off my own personal Sony hate train. I've been indifferent until now, but this move is  fifth grade, and I'm pretty sure I dropped out of school to avoid that grade.

Welcome aboard.  Sony is a bunch of no talent ass clowns (except their pro line, that's still good).


In case you're wondering about how much HD space you'll need to save that game to your HD and how big of an imrovement you'll see:

Varg, let me know when you can start watching any streaming movies on your PS3, and then you can join the big boy talk.
