I've been hearing about severe glithces and that Microsoft lets the public sort out the bugs.

Notice as you talk to the guy if you're looking straight at him the voice comes from your center channel, if you face the other direction he will come from either the right or left channel and if you turn around it will come from either the right or left rear channel. Totally blew me away. No glitches so far, but I did notice the first time I played PDZ I had to lay my XBOX flat to load it up...but after that it works fine vertically.

If I were you, I'd honestly replace DR with Splinter Cell's new entry unless you love dying and returning to the beginning of games and spending ages traipsing around trying not to die after a difficult mission in order to save. Honestly, it's hardcore annoying - and this is from a hardcore gamer from the C64 days.

Atari Founder Slams Sony
Bushnell Praises the 360 and Xbox Live.
by Micah Seff
November 8, 2006 - In a recent interview conducted with Red Herring, Nolan Bushnell expressed some astonishing insights into the next-generation console wars. During the interview, the Atari and Chuck E. Cheese founder mostly focused on his recent foray into the world of restaurant entrepreneurship, but managed to find time to weigh in on the future of the impending PlayStation 3 and Wii.
Bushnell seemed to be wholly positive on the future of the Wii, echoing sentiments heard from Nintendo executives regarding the Wii's potential to "expand the market beyond the hardcore." Similarly, Bushnell seemed to have only good things to say about Microsoft's Xbox 360, its easy-to-use authoring tools, and Xbox Live.
His take on the future of the PlayStation 3 was anything but positive, however. Bushnell expressed his distaste for the difficulty of developing for the system, and the "arrogance and capriciousness" which Sony has gotten away with in the past due to its massive installed user base. Bushnell even went so far as to call first party developers "idiots" if they chose to develop for the PS3 rather than the 360.
When asked about the potential success of the PS3 compared to its predecessors, Bushnell blamed Sony's past accomplishments on timing. "They had the right pricing at the right time [and were] almost the accidental winner," said Bushnell. When it comes to the PS3, Bushnell seemed to think that Sony would have a hard time even selling through 1 million units by this time next year. Only time will tell whether or not Bushnell's predictions come true.
