If Sony is smart they can always counter by partnering with Blockbuster online.

Microsoft's announcements today at E3 are just the beginning.  They are going to have a huge remaining part of the year.  Not only can you get NetFlix movies on their instant queue service, but you can share them with your friends list so they can watch at the same time too.  Very cool stuff.

I am so glad I bought a 360 now!  Did I mention how much I paid for it?  WIN!

The real question is, is it only the movies available in their 'instant' section on netflix or are they expanding that.

Post by: Reddawn on July 15, 2008, 12:42:43 PM
They are always expanding but now with the 360 and rocker thingie I bet they ramp it up big time

Instant queue movies, but of course, that will increase as time goes on.

Hmm i don't see why Gates hasn't made the ONE system already which will integrate console and PC. Hes got the monopoly on the common denominator which is Windows.

Then again there's probably more money in keeping them separated... bastards

I don't know, I would think they would sell alot more if it could fully integrate with eachother.

That is true.  And that isn't to say I haven't enjoyed the instant movies thusfar.  Its been nice being able to watch all of season 1 of dexter without having to find a site or watch it on cable.  But.. if you could watch ANY of those movies, that would be amazing.

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.

Just a friendly reminder to the 360'ers out there.  November 19th.  New dashboard.  Pwn.

As far as we know we'll have to turn on our Xbox on the 19th to get the Yes, I want to download the update prompt, it won't automatically DL it if I leave it on overnight...right?

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!!
http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/11/19/sony-blocks-entire-netflix-movie-library-from-streaming-to-the-x/

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:

Do it all the time buddie! Can rent them (or buy them) in HD right from the playstation store. Not a problem. Thanks, try again.
Also i can stream skrait off of my PC wirelessly in Divx or any other format i want.


ALSO I CAN PLAY BLUE RAY

good luck with that HD format lolz

Varg...

A.  If you're going to try to gloat, at least spell the product you're carrying high on your shoulders properly.  It's fucking Blu-ray.
     L 2 Read the shitty product in front of you.

B.  WTF is 'skrait'?  Does definition four apply to this situation?  I bet it does...
     http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=skrait

C.  Xbox can stream audio, videos, and pictures form my PC.  You can take that notch off your Sony-touting belt.

D.  HD-DVD was the superior format.  Unfortunately Toshiba didn't drop near a billion dollars to win the format war.  They went with the 'The better product will prevail' approach.

E.  I will drive over there and throttle you within an inch of your life.  Keep you Sony misinformation/propaganda out of our Xbox thread.


Can I get an AMEN!, JT?

You go rent and buy your little ass off then, I'll watch as many as I want for what I already pay for my netflix subscription. As Troyer already stated, being able to stream from PC to console is old Xbox news, welcome to the party. It's a shame you were late, but there are still some Hors d'oeuvres over in the corner, help yourself.

I'm glad you have blu-ray. I can watch blu-ray as well, but it doesn't have to be on a shitty as gaming console.

You guys are just upset cause you wish you had a PS3. I know this and it is OK.  I like my netflix to come in the mail on BLUE RAY just fine. Also good luck with the bandwidth cap if you have comcast and are streaming the jank.

Holla back at your boy, keep it skrait.
