Re: Xbox 360

youll be a while waiting for the PS3. its not out for another year or something?

Re: Xbox 360

ps3 comes out late spring i think.

i was going to buy the 360 but the price is insane...400 for the unit with memory, 50 PER controller it doesnt come with...50 per game (all the good games cost between 50-60). Fuck that. What parent is going to be spending 600+ for a video game system this christmas?

I bought the ps2 yesterday instead. With a ton of games. fuck paying 600 min.

Re: Xbox 360

defo thats a fuckin joke and in about 4 months the price will have fallen through the floor. making the most out of christmas imho

Re: Xbox 360

i just dont see a ton of families rushing to buy it for their kids till the price drops. i mean you dont even get ONE controller, thats insanity.

my bf was mad i bought the ps2 he was gonna go get the 360 today...after i told him how much i bought for the same amount of money he agreed. he couldnt believe the 360 was such a ripoff lol.

Re: Xbox 360

and u have to add another 100 bucks for the harddisk which is not included ... its definately a ripoff imo .. gonna wait for ps3 which should be worth the wait even though its only gonna be out late next spring

Re: Xbox 360

i do enjoy video games from time to time, but my roommates friend queued up at wal-mart from 8am yesterday to get one. its absolutely insane to me how into video games some people are... i think people that play video games religiously are on the same level as people that sit and watch tv all the time, rotting their brains, and it kinda sucks because some of my friends are video game obsessives (including one who has willingly put himself in a very tough financial situation because he just couldnt live without a 360.) that being said, i will be over his place playing it for a little while some time this week

i also hear games are $60 is that correct?

Re: Xbox 360

^ From what i've seen from ads from Circuit City and Best Buy, the games are all 60 dollars.

cheers shan, im sure ur wive will love that haha..

well ill prob get one anyway.. my flatmate and i needs that shiznit.

Peloquin i agree with most of what ur saying cause i have a mate like that,

I think when some games come along and u spend along time playing them.. i like games with a plot and all that..games like shenmue, the resident evil series from the start and other games like halo, metal gear..

then theres fun ones like beat em ups and racing games.. i wanna get a 360 for PGR alone... looks fantastic...

Re: Xbox 360

dont get me wrong, i have put hours over the years into games, but i have friends (and a roommate) who will literally sit and play xbox for 10 hours straight if they have the day off)

one time, my roommate flaked out on stopping by to see his little sister on her birthday because a friend called him asking if he wanted to play halo

Re: Xbox 360

It'll be cool, no doubt, but I'm holding out for PS3.
