Microsoft is just copying off of others now! they took the mii concept, and now want a blu-ray drive!!! It was already perfect, leave it alone already, give players more choices in their gaming consoles!

Dude, where does it say that they want Blu-Ray? Sure, the Mii revolution is obviously ripped off, but hey, it works. They're just utilizing a technique that's prominent on the "ultimate casual console." Personally, I dislike the Wii and its hype, but that's just me. Many others have invested in it and been satisfied with their choice; I'm more of a hardcore gamer, however.

But I digress..

All I want for the 360 is an internet browser. Both of the other competing consoles have one, why can't the Xbox?

Wow.....that is such a rip off. They took away the Mii Idea and hey think they can overcome Home with it. Personally, home will kill this little rip off that Microsoft has.

thats cute, you just keep waiting for PS Home while we get the THIRD iteration of XBox live. Sony can't even rip off MS correctly, ingame XMB still sucks, music in game isn't mandated, voice chat is nonexistent and clumsy. maybe Sony should try harder ripping stuff off. Personally, you may not see home this year, so do have fun with that. oh and now you can download movies to the playstation, doesn't that defeat the ENTIRE purpose of it being a bluray player? why would you pay 30 bucks for a bluray when you can DOWNLOAD IT in HD for cheaper??!?!!?! tell me that makes sense. the blind leading the blind never works.

wow... such hostility...

I don't really have a problem with any consoles adding or copying features. Everybody should be happy. :)

Wait a minute people, Nintendo didn't come up with the idea of avatars. They're all over the place-- Yahoo! uses similar avatars right?. Sure Nintendo was the first console company to use them as a major part of their user experience, but it's not an original idea for them either.
