[QUOTE="Bront, post: 2793865, member: 19696"] Curious. 1) Haven't seen this. Feel free to send this in e-mail, particularly with links to the offending add or whatnot. Not doubting you, I just find this sort of thing interesting. 2) Dead Pixels on an LCD screen are considered acceptable up to a certain point. This is actualy standard, and you'll find the same thing on any brand of LCD monitor, as well as the Nintendo portable systems. It is just an issue of manufacturing, where there is occasionaly a dead pixel or two, and usually they don't take away from the experience. More than a few, and they should replace it though. There's usually a number somewhere in the warantey. That said, Microsoft has a fairly good customer service base, mostly due to it's experience on the PC side. 3) Technicaly, the Gamecube is the older generation's most powerful system, but power doesn't win you everything. What is more powerful won't have that much of an effect on this generations systems, since the home hardware to tell the difference and the ability to is lacking. Some games will look better on one system than another, as it the way it is. 4) Honestly, I've no clue here, since I haven't been following them closely. I'm interested in the Revolution, and been debating going to a second consol at some point, but not sure which yet. I have a computer, and may be upgrading that first just because it's about time. The problem is that some of the games I want to play only come out on either nintendo systems, or the other two (sometimes all three, but the college sports games aren't coming on the game cube anymore :( ) Just thought I'd add that.
