yup they are, they the only site along with a few other none known sites that are reporting these crashes! i think tht the problems are a tiny amount as you would expect, and that the pro sony sites are blowing things up and causing a stir in the official xbox 360 UK mag forums

dont sweat it guys, part of the key of that article is right at the beginning where it says "the ps2 ign team" meaning its a team that does nothing but love on the PS2 so of course they are going to lean towards nothing but sony and write up articles to feed to the Sony fanboys. its their job. Dont let junk like that bother you. Read some of the articles by xbox teams where they talk about how great it is, then you'll be balanced lol.
And half of what they say while impressive is irrelevant. I mean I'm an HDTV lover/enthusiast and even I can see through the BS of some things. 1080p? yeah great about 3% of HDTV's do it, 120 FPS? oh wonderful too bad no HDTV can display that right now or even announced that I can remember. Dual 1080p support? I doubt it'll have the same picture quality once you go dual screen, it'd probably look marvelous on one but once its split I'm sure quality will go down a bit. "7 boomerang support" lol that statement alone speaks for itself, I've never had over 4 people on one console and can't imagine having that many. I mean what would you play with that madden? and then what 3 of the guys are wide receivers who never get to receive the ball? Its like always throwing irrelevant facts that at the end of the day dont change the actual experience. As I dont know many people who have TWO HDTV displays sitting next to eachother. Since to do panarama mode like it supports you need two identical sets.

Who cares if PS3 is getting Metal gear Kojima has already been quoted to say that 360 could do the same game...its on joystiq.com if you wanna read it. As for crashes, I worked retail while the PS1 launched...we got sooo many of those things back it made me get a Saturn instead. But as I recall it sold fine. As for killer apps...what was Sonys killer app for PS2? Fantavision? DOA Hardcore? I don't recall a "killer app" I truely believe just having a strong line up and a large launch line is the key. You only truely need a killer app for the competition...and as I see it 360 has NO current competition...period. Don't believe the Sony hype machine...they haven't shown me anything yet

Like cybergig said, no reason to get bent out of shape. Each IGN channel has a feature explaining reasons why that particular console is better than the others. IGN 360 has top ten reasons to buy a 360, IGN GC has top ten reasons to buy a Revolution.

Reason #6: Seven-Player Wireless Support
While being able to play with six of your buddies offline in addition to playing with a single system will only be appealing for a small number of genres, it can be especially important for sports games in particular. Being able to populate an NBA or NHL team entirely with human players is something that isn't possible on any system outside of the PlayStation line, and the PS3 will keep with this trend.

If you've ever played through a season of your favorite sports game with each of your buddies taking control of a single player for the season, you know how rewarding and fun this sort of setup can be. Again, it's only possible on a Sony system, and in the next-generation the only place to find multiplayer support of this kind will be on the PlayStation 3.
WOW to bad if your playing a first person shooter your screen will be like 2 inchs long

I have a PS2. I know how IGN works for Sony. It's a gaming site so it should post everything. Good and bad. This site does it.

Alright through the years that gaming has become big I have owned almost all the nintendo systems, and the first xbox and future x360 owner... Now I have never owned a PS, there are a few reasons for it... 1. Crappy games I mean come on back in the day the only good game was DMC, and 2. The controller just feels.. like eh.. I don't know how to explain it. But yea go to TeamXbox (www.teamxbox.com) for good 360 news! 360 all the way!

amen yeah ive always been a nintendo fan untill well i mean look at the revolution controller... need i say anymore? now its about xbox which i never disliked besides what the first one looked like, but the gamecube as long as it wasnt purple it didnt look taht bad , but Microsoft should merge with nintendo and create like....Xcube 64 or something idfk lol

Reason #6: Seven-Player Wireless Support

They say that like its a good thing, as if one of those things isnt bad enough, i hope they paid whoeevr extra just for that bit of nonsense
