My boss paid like $700 for a 360 last Christmas for his kid.

Now- we need a LCD HDTV to play ours on. The old timey tv doesn't cut it, and my big one isn't going up to the clubhouse.

Probably wont... 1 million available on the first day, 4 million by the end of the year. Probably have to drive a bit to find a place with it, but that's it... I hope

I believe it will be around 300,000 units on release.
It'll be 400,000 for North America, 100,000 for Japan, and a March 07 release date for Europe.

Xbox 360's broke $1,000 last year, I wouldn't be surprised to see $1,500 for a PS3 Premium.

Hey, no problem. I have all sorts of information. Mostly a collection of official PDFs for the Wii and some Wii games. Battalion Wars 2, Mario Galaxy, Excite Truck, Trauma Center. But like I said, it's mostly PDF files. However, I'm surprised to say, I'm excited for Madden 07, and here's why:

Plus, the VC (virtual console) isn't limited to just NES/SNES/N64 games. We get Sega Genesis and TurboGrafx 16 too.

The DS changed the way handhelds are
Even though the PSP has the greater graphics it didnt stand a chance against the DS, basically because the DS is just more fun... thanks in large part to the new Touch screen.
