Because Marvel made it that way in his OP, like I'm making my post message icon a wink smiley.

Thanks, and yeah, the list definitely helped. Covering the NY Comic Con should be easy since I work and live so close to the city. It's just a matter of how we could do interviews and what not. Erik, 65"? Compensating much? I never get any complaints about my 42" As for a blu-ray player...PS3, damn it!

@k4tz:
Lol. I need a huge tv for all my movie watching needs. Home theater experience.
Maybe I should just go for the PS3. Both you and Supreme think it is the better choice.

Reasons why you should get a PS3: -Blu-ray player automatically updates -Free wireless / online -Access to PS3 exclusives, which are superior to X-Box's exclusives, IMO. Not to mention most games are multi-platform now-a-days. -You need to play goddamn video games and this is the system of choice! Batman: AA is cheap now

@k4tz: Okay you convinced me. PS3 it is. I have a friend who is a hardcore gamer and she says that Xbox is mucho better. What say you? I was once like her. I was an X-Box fanboy since the original X-Box and always viewed Playstation as a mediocre system. Then I grew up. Microsoft has an excellent controller, and the only real reason to get a 360 instead is if you're a hardcore Halo or Gears of War fan (which I was). Some boast Mass Effect is a reason, but those are coming to the PS3 (with better graphics, too. ha ha!) X-Box 360 has an excellent online service which is easy to use with friends. But it comes at a cost (literally). Unlike Wii and PS3, who provide you with free online, Microsoft charges your for EVERYTHING. Want to charge your controller? You need to purchase a device. Each PS3 controller comes with a charging cable (same price as just the 360 controller, too) Want to use wireless on your 360? Well, first you have to buy online ($60 annual PER YEAR), and then you need to buy the wireless adaptor ($100). They recently upped the price too ($50 to $60) and cited having the feature of Netflix, facebook, and ESPN as the reason. PSN (playstation network) is free and has those features (not ESPN, but you have a fucking tv for that!). Way to go, Microsoft. Also, let's say you don't give a crap about playing online. Well, the free silver account does absolutely nothing for you. You can't even download demos. Let's say you're fine with paying that much for online since you're such a massive Halo fanboy, so now you want to buy mappacks and such online. You need to go out to the store and buy microsoft points. PSN? You just use your CC and it gives you a REAL price, instead of "700 ms points!" To make matters better, microsoft has some of the worst customer service and they'll renew your account without your approval. You're a movie buff, so are you going to get blu-rays or hd movies? The answer is obvious. X-box can play HD, but you need to buy a $100+ attachment. PS3? Free blu-ray (with auto updates) installed. Exclusvies? Like I said, Microsoft has GoW, Fable, and Halo. Playstation has Uncharted (easily one of the best franchises out there, IMO), Little Big Planet (don't let it fool you, it's a fucking blast), Resistance (WW2 shooter + aliens = massive win), God of War, and others. Long story short, if you're a weathly man and don't mind handing Microsoft a bunch of cash, go with the 360. Good controller, good online, but you're going to pay a lot more for all of the features. Where-as I firmly believe the PS3 is far more oriented towards the needs of gamers and continues to deliver on that aspect.

Especially since I now have a hard time parting with cash on things I think are bullshit.
