Hey all of you in Xbox land! Any of you guys considering purchasing the Elite? If so, there are a few things that haven’t been mentioned very much that you need to know.
Remember when your original Xbox 360 died on you, and when you got a replacement, the arcade games or videos that you had purchased would only work when you were signed into Xbox Live? I’m afraid we arent out of the woods just yet…
Go to www.majornelson.com to see a walkthrough for the Elite, kindly presented by Major Nelson, Albert, and the always lovely Jen. Albert mentions that transferring your data will in fact cause the issue of requiring internet connection to get access to the full version of those old files. This isn’t a problem for most of us, being as we always want to be connected, but sometimes, there’s an exception. A Friend was talking to me about this a couple weeks ago, and brought up that he’ll let his kids play his 360, but doesnt want them going online. This is understandable, considering some of the jerks we come across online. The only trouble here, is that his kids wont be able to play the games he had purchased on his original system.
Is there a way for Microsoft to fix this problem, maybe through a system update? Nothing is impossible, I just hope there isn’t some wormhole preventing this solution from becoming a reality.
-The second thing you should know, being as it is integral to the comment above. The Elite system does not include the transfer cable that you need to transfer your data. I would say that this is a major problem, however, Microsoft is going to make this cable available to owner’s of the Elite, for free, from their website. “Why couldnt they have just included it in the package?” you say. Three reasons I can come up with off the top of my head.
1. Lack of free space in the box.
2. The majority of Elite adopters will be first time users, so this is presented as a useless throw-in.
3. If they only release the transfer cable to those who need it, they can save money.
The fortunate thing is, while we do have to wait for the cable to arrive in the mail, we can still use our 20 gig harddrive. Thanks again to Larry, Albert, and Jen for finally debunking the mystery that is the Xbox 360 Elite. It has at least given us a guide to help us determine if we should upgrade, or if we should stay with our trusty Premium and/or Core system.
Thats right! its not just a kiddy game! well… ok… maybe it is. That doesn’t seem to stop people from all ages and races from flocking to this insanely addictive game.
Now, if you havent purchased this game. You need to. Its a must have for your collection if you own a Nintendo DS. 1 Million people cant be wrong! Even more shocking news about this game however, is that in Japan, they’ve already sold over 5 million since launch back in september of last year. These pokemon games dont just sell copies… it prints money for Nintendo. I get to thinking though, if it was 1 million in 5 days, will this trend continue, or plateau?
One thing you should know really quick, if you decide to listen to my advice and go buy the game. There are two different versions of the game: Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, so choose wisely. Honestly, neither one is superior at this point, they just have some characters that you cant get on one version, that you can on the other.
In an interesting turn today, Ken Kutaragi, better known as the “Father of The Playstation” has decided that at age 56, it’s time to pursue other dreams. As exciting as it is to see Ken step down, the man taking his place as CEO is… yup, you guessed it. Kaz Hirai. (It’s Ridge racer. RRIIDDGGEE RRAACCEERR!!)
This retirement comes after 2 years of constant demoting for Ken–which makes me think, maybe it wasn’t retirement as much as it might have been demoting him into oblivion. I mean one man can only take so much rejection. Is my claim so far fetched? Here is some evidence to support that it might have been a firing and not retirement.
In a recent interview with Wall Street, Howard Stringer (Sony chairman and CEO) pointed to Ken Kutaragi being “Uncommunticative”. When someone is uncommunicative, that person is usually moved to a desolate location, where they can uncommunicate. (Ken seems to be the Milton of Sony).
