"Normally I don’t cover stories about internet service providers, but this one is really hard to pass up. Verizon is now offering a faster internet connection through their FiOS service. While it isn’t available everywhere, most large cities do have access to this. Until today you could only get a 50 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload speed through FiOS for $140 per month. Thankfully PC World has reported on an even faster internet connection available to over 3 million Americans."
"You will also download firmware updates for your PS3 faster, instead of waiting 10 minutes to an hour you will download it in a few seconds to a minute. Xbox 360 dashboards updates will be done faster than you press the A button to confirm the download..."

Microsoft Studios has revealed a very limited edition version of the Xbox 360 console, featuring a design based on the highly-anticipated The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Gamers eager to get their hands on the newly revealed console design may have trouble doing so however, as currently there’s only one way to obtain it.
That's possibly the prettiest Xbox I've seen thus far. I love the color scheme of it.
Like Tyrese said in Transformers 3 "Why do the Decepticons always get the Good Sh!t!
When is the last time Sony release any limited edition PS3 consoles? I don't mean bundle but custom designed consoles. I think the Gunmetal MGS4 console was it, as I recalled.
Sam and Geoff talk about The Simpsons, Netflix and some Xbox 360 news. LobbycastLou and LobbycastLiu each stop by briefly, at the top and bottom of the show, respectively. The show ends with another stellar edition of The Weekly Whatchas! Your music this week is "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros from their album 'Up From Below.'
In my experience with the PSN and Comcast, can't speak for xbox 360 and live so don't jump the gun and say I'm a fanboy or whatever -- I don't own a 360 nor do I want one.
But I have 100mb comcast service and it does absolutely nothing for my PS3 and download speed. I swear the PSN is capped at no more than 2mb per-second. I've had 10mb service, I've had 16mb service and back in June I got 100mb service and I've never gotten more DL speed than what Sony wanted me to get.
I usually average 1mb a second, and at night that goes to about 2mb per second if it's late enough.
Verizon, get your a$$es up north already, I gotta deal with Bell and Rogers.
I got killzone3 beta from india and i'm in london, took 15mins.lol.
We got Cox Cable and they do 55MBps, which really is all I need, do to the fact that some websites I go to don't support anything higher then 30MBps (Which is pretty lame).
Mostly need it for my PS3 and 360 gaming.
ISPs are turning into the Digital Camera wars.
Let's churn up those download speeds (churn up the megapixels!),
but completely disregard latency/ping (completely disregard pixel desnity/quality)!
Aside from downloading updates/patches, which is what you do maybe 5% of the time of playing, you really don't need more than 4 megs of good download speed to play online. It's all in the ping.
