They're becoming more consistent with their other products, such as their x00 cd changers and their DirecTV recievers. You don't actually turn their stuff off anymore. It just goes into standby. They may also do this with their TVs.

BIG mistake. Hardware variance with consoles should be a non-issue. It shouldn't happen because it makes the playing field uneven. This is just Xbox Part Deux. It's even powered by nVidia, Intel and XP. Just get something else and do something Phantom owners can't: Hold up a physical copy of your game that you paid for.

hm_murdock:
man, what are you talkin' about?

having different options is the roxor

especially when it means you can get into the platform for less. who cares about consoles anyway. PC games are better

mods
add-ons
cheats
codes
using keyboard and mouse to control FPS
using a joystick and having REAL flight sims
having a real rts
having the ability to update the game if there's something wrong

consoles are the worst
