The only difference between it and the PS3 is the wire rack. The PS3 I've had to clean out more than once already because the front bottom vents sucked in so much dust... I think the finish on the PS3 makes it prone to building up a static charge and attracting dust. I have no other answer for it. On a clean glass shelf it'll get choked up with dust. I've never had a dust build up on the 360 but I still clean it out every now and then so that I never will...

thanks, it'll get a work out when Dragon Age and ME2 come out.

do it! aluminum frame, anime accurate leg transformation swing arms!

A joss whedon robotech? that might get me to like robotech... it certainly got me to like the X-men again.

It's the first of the non elite HDMI units and it lives on top of a wire rack to ensure the bottom vents can suck in air and there's a can of compressed air that lives nearby that visits often as well...

I have a 360 and it hasn't burned out. so now you know 1 person with an okay unit. so it's only a 99% fail rate.

I'd like to see pics of the battroid with the armor with the stock neck.

nah,it could be good. Hopefully in this new movie they fully explore Adama's psychic powers... oh, I know, just re-title Dark City into Galactica City, call John Adama and call it a day. well, maybe CGI in some robot monkey dogs so that the old school fans don't pitch another fit.

I buy that argument but it really only holds up to the first couple times th record is played. After that the nature of the medium takes its toll on the sound quality.

5k is a pretty small sampling considering it's made up of game informer subscribers... I agree with the joystiq analysis... it seems awfully low. I'd love to see actual microsoft numbers have it broken down by hardware revision.

lol, well, I don't know about now, but back in the old days when people actually drew up little diagrams and stuff they were common...

I remember the neck hinge issue... mine is fine as well... I guess I just have the luck of the scream man when it comes to the yf-19... lord knows my 3 0a's were chock ful of explody shoulder goodness.

Yeah, the VF-0 did.. but the yf-19? I remember a handful of incidents but nothing that was as widespread... mine is okay at least and that's all that matters.

any art supply or college book store should have them. they're pretty common for engineering or doing design work.

LOL, do people *really* think that Bandai hand selects the "good" ones to sell in Japan from their factories in China? So, instead of being lazy or cheap, they're just a closet arm of the Uyoku dantai?

no, we just don't b!tch and moan endlessly over something that happened a year ago, or 5 years ago, or 10 years ago. The 1/60 ver 2.0 had *1* release that had widespread problems and if you were local the fix was free and if you were overseas it cost 8 bucks to get it fixed. We're a half dozen releases in and no more issues. Meanwhile the DX hasn't fixed anything, not the sculpt issues, not the design issues, the issues with the paint flaking off or the QC issues or the joints that are so tight people are afraid it will snap the screw that holds it together. Further, accessories that Yamato includes for free, bandai makes you buy one at a time, paying through for "web exclusives".

Are you kidding? Cassette sounds like garbage. Maybe the very first dozens listenings but eventually that tape gets pulled and stretched, the sound gets distorted, you get hiss and pop because you're dragging a tape over the head, the tape and head get dirty as the rubber rollers dry out and start to flake off onto the tape. Heaven help you if you leave it out in the sun too long. As a portable medium it fails because anything over light walking can cause the tape/head alignment to suffer, FFWDing or rewinding only hastens the death of the cassette, song seeking makes it worse, battery life sucks because it's a mechanical device, there's a crapload of little springs and gears that give out and die over time. Granted most MP3s you buy from itunes or wherever suck because the sample rate is too low but with a decent bitrate an MP3 or AAC file will blow the pants off most any cassette, *especially* a custom personal mix tape. Which BTW, is so much easier to organize and do digitally than sitting there for an hour or more recording one song at a time... Besides, I don't know about you, but I'm listening to my ipod out on the street, walking, jogging, on the train, in the plane... I don't drag my studio monitors out in public and I certainly don't have the volume turned up high enough where it would matter.. I like to be able to actually hear the sounds of the environment around me so that, you know, I don't get run over or miss my stop.

coaches can be very jostling experiences what with all the horses galloping and what not, plus the old wooden wheels had sh!t for shock absorption.

maybe we'll get a horrible mash up... Baltar: Why not come out where I can see you, Adama? Adama: What do you want her for? Baltar: Can't you read my mind? What now? Save the girl? You'll have to kill me, Adama. And what will that accomplish? Let them pass that law and they'll have you in chains with a number burned into your forehead. Adama: It won't be that way. Baltar: Then kill me and find out. Then release me. Fine!

It's not?

The movie could be about galactica during her glory days, or there could have been a galactica that left Kobol after her fall and the movies could be about that galactica and the founding of the 12 colonies. A movie set during the cylon war cold easily accommodate a less cerebral, more action oriented movie that apparently the studio is going for. I just don't want to see robot dog monkeys and psychic super solider adama

oh man.. I would have bought a big ass mon calamari... I would have said it was for my son... but that would have been a lie.

lol, uber missile variant FTW!

First it was giant space lobsters now our intrepid heroes fight giant space microbes! Gonorrhea and polio... my doctor friend knows I like to collect toys, I guess he wasn't clear on what type of toys...
