David- Step 3 is listen. :)

Carlos, yes it does look like a Betamax player. It looks like any antiquated piece of hardware from the 80's/early 90's.

Oh well as long as it is used to program great games, that's all that matters. Who knows if they'll actually be great though. That's the only problem. Word has it that these are harder to program than PS2 games, and as I remember, 1st gen PS2 games were really nothing special...

Now don't get me wrong, there were a couple really good games but lots of...meh's. It really goes without saying that the PS3, XBOX360, Wii, etc aren't going to shine until AT LEAST the 2nd-3rd generation of games.

Anthony F, don't call people an idiot if you don't know what you're talking about. It makes you look ignorant. Even if you DO know what you're talking about, it still makes you look like a jackass.

That thing looks like a CD player, Circa 1986.

Anthony - Try any video game store.

modenadude, oops! For some reason, I thought that they pretty much flip-flopped. L's went to R's--and vice versa. Those crazy Asians! :P

No one is perfect, and there's no point in calling someone out if they're planning on doing something. :)

Justin, I think it screams another four letter word.

UGLY!

I agree with Grant. You've become completely too biased on this website. While the occasional joke is occasionally funny, I think that you might just be overdoing it. I could be wrong, though.

And I really hope that any of you don't tell me, "If you don't like it, don't read it!" That may be the lamest comeback that you could possibly use. My reasoning is that the site wasn't always this biased, and it's much more enjoyable when it's neutral as opposed to bashing the hell out of anything and everything.

The jokes are seldomly funny, so stop it!
