Feb 28th 2009 9:39PM The arcade version runs on a Intel Core 2 chip. So it shouldn't be a hard translation for running under directx since it's already an x86 platform.
MSNBC asks analysts if $60 is too steep for games {Joystiq}
Feb 7th 2009 10:39AM I believe, which i don't think anyone has explicitly mentioned, was that the increased price point was because of the increased licensing fees from Microsoft and Sony. That's what caused the increase of costs for developing the games. Sony at least used bluetooth for communication in the hardware aspect, while microsoft went the proprietary route and charges a hefty fee to license any game peripheral (maybe sony does too, but at least Bluetooth is a standard). So look to microsoft and Sony for blame, when these consoles first came out they discussed that. Also Wii games, what little third party games there are haha, are still 49.99

Oct 12th 2008 2:03PM I think the negative comments to the Verizon OS are legitimate, at least with phones that are released across multiple carriers and they might showcase a new OS from that manufacturer but Verizon loads theirs. On that note however, I have Verizon and I have a 8330 Curve, which has full OS in tact except the crippled GPS. The Bluetooth has full OBEX, and i can use MP3 ringtones. I would love to have a nice verizon touchscreen phone, but with a better os, so i'll probably go with the storm.
Retailers clearance price 20GB Xbox 360s {Joystiq Xbox}
Sep 6th 2008 2:22AM I just thought i would add, it's amazing because i think xbox 360 is the last product to have a 20gb hard drive, i mean i don't believe they manufacture them anymore. In fact i don't think there was a consumer version of a laptop sata drive at 20gb.
