ultimately it lets you run "backup" copies of wii games without having to modchip your box.

I'm helping my dad find a new computer and I'm not really up to date with all the latest hardware.

Is THIS a good deal?

Backup copies?

Is that just ripped game?

I was interested in modding the Wii - bit I'm pretty sure it'll void my warranty.

Rentals for me.

yep. if you were to buy all that separately you would be looking at just under 1k anyway.

yes a ripped and downloaded game.

modding does indeed void the warranty. however the twilight hack does not.

Okay, so I finished Dead Space last night. Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish, some awesome standout moments though, mostly concerning zero-G environments. Some real scares and hectic moments throughout. The set pieces were really well done, though, and that's what made the game memorable for me. The dismemberments, the creative enemy types etc. Some of the weapons were a bit naff though, and I barely used them. I pretty much used the starting cutter weapon, the line gun, and the pulse rifle for the teeny tiny enemies that sometimes popped up during my travels.

The game was more evolutionary than revolutionary though, taking elements of Resident Evil 4, System Shock 2, Doom 3, Event Horizon, Aliens and countless other sci-horror films and forming a very enjoyable, if derivative experience.

Don't have it yet but going to get it asap, played it quite a bit with a friend who got it.

2-player/multiplayer is where it really shines, all about the co-op sections and getting all the items.
Online really fun too, heaps of user generated levels and the level-editor is where you'd spend most of your time once you finish the standard levels I reckon.
But the developers are gonna keep releasing new levels aswell

But all in all its a must-have for any PS3 owner I reckon.

LOL, funny reading

Love how he gives 90% of games 0 and 10% straight 10s and says why not a 10 ign
Except GTA4 because they DID give it a 10 he gives it 8.5 and says not worth 10. Hahahah
And then gives non-ps3 versions shit

The Wrath of the Lich King one is pretty amusing too

If it's not modded, send it back to Microsoft (go to their website).

If it's modded, take it... somewhere else.

Most people have this problem because something has fried inside (common overheating problem, i believe). Microsoft can do repairs within and I think without warranty, but it will cost a fee if out of warranty. I personally had this issue, went through the troubleshooting steps and it turns out the harddrive thingo was a little loose. I removed it, then reinserted and the three red rings were gone. Been stable for 12 more months
