    Loved mst3k (not enough to go to the electric boogaloo mind you) but was a fan. I have seen many try to imitate them many times on youtube and all are terrible. No matter how good the product is, the end user is what will make this pretty bad. :)

    And if you disagree you can email me at crow@biteme.com

    Excited.

    MST3k is by far the greatest show of all time....during the summer of '96 I had my appendix taken out. The next day I went home, and watched "The Incredible Melting Man." I was laughing so hard during the scene with the two old people in the lemon grove, that all of the sudden I felt a sharp pain where my stitches were. I could see the gauze/wrappings around the stitches every so slowly start to turn red...so I called 911 and was rushed to the hospital...where I needed additional stitches. Turns out I was laughing so hard that I actually damaged the wound/stitches.

    And I don't really want to start a flame war here...but I'm sorry, I can't help it....Mike is better.

    Crazy, just got done watching Space Mutiny. One of my favorite MST3ks. For anyone who misses them and wants more, they have a website called Rifftrax and is effin hilarious. Original crew, new movies, brilliant! #patents

    Kind of interesting, but I can't say I'm any more interested in this than, say, the Avatar Party watching we can do on the 360 already. Obviously this is more advanced and goes a beyond canned animations, but the overall experience doesn't seem like it'll be that different.

    That is, it sounds great and is kind of funny for a while, but eventually you just settle into watching the movie. #patents

    @ramz888: Actually, it's not true at all.

    Not saying that You're in the Movies is worth two shits, because it isn't, but the functions described in this article don't have anything at all to do with that game beyond the fact that they both use the term "movie" somewhere in the product.

    If you need to draw an Xbox 360 comparison because you're a lazy bastard, draw it to the party viewing system, which this is clearly an evolution of. #patents

    @Moonshadow101: My reference was to the "ONLY APPEALING" part of the phrase fanboy. Too bad your too interesting in name calling to get the reference.
    I actually own all 3 systems and find no need to over analyze and draw useless comparisons between them because they all bring unique things to the table. However in this case I think what Sony is offering is MORE APPEALING that what Ms currently offers.
    Too bad you couldn't figure that out. #patents

    In reply to MAG Preview: Come Back Here With My Tank!
    Played the beta. Wasn't bad, but wasn't great. There is one thing that would make it a must buy for me. But first...

    When they announced vehicles, I wasn't interested. I've got Battlefield for that.

    When they showed breaking the teams up into small squads for "squad vs. squad" battles, I wasn't interested. I've got Call of Duty if I want to take on just a handful of enemies at a time.

    When they announced 256 player battles, that's when I got interested. I don't have anywhere else to turn for huge battles.

    The only reason I'm interested in this game is the number of players per match. But more specifically, the number of players per gunfight. I can get 16 vs. 16 player gunfights from a bevy of other sources. What I can't get is a 126 vs. 126 player gunfight.

    That's what a I want. I want the chaos of 126 vs. 126 player team deathmatch. Offer the chaos. I want the chaos!
