The XBox 360 really doesn't have that many games for it yet. No games that would make me say oh i gotta have the Xbox 360. So i am not buying one...

Nope, and I'm not getting one, either. Waste of money, in my opinion.

I'll be getting one later. Right now there are too many issues with many of them, and the lack of games helps me wait.

Im not getting one since ive got a Mustang that needs work and since taxes are coming up (and Ive not had anything taken out of my checks (down side of being self employed)).

Your right about doubling your money. People are selling those things on ebay for $1,000,000. No, that aint a misprint. ONe guy said he would dress up as santa claus and deliver it to your child. :crazy:

Tough decision, it was either a 360 or some Cobra rims. The cobras are now sitting in my room.

i got one, and its pretty good. i could have sold it on ebay, but I would feel bad taking advantage of some parent who is trying to satisfy their whiny kid by paying 4X what its worth.

BTW, Project Gotham Racing 3 is fun, and has the 07 shelby in it.

No way am I shelling out money to MS for a half-rushed buggy system.
If you DO want one..
wait till the issues are fixed

The fact that some of these things are overheating is just ludacris.
Did they not learn from the FIRST XBOX that had the SAME PROBLEM!?

Rush it, and look what happens....

I'm waiting for Nintendo's new console Looking forward to getting my hands on the new gameplay!

Nintendo always makes quality products. Sony and MS have some really troubled pasts with defects and the sort.

I'm not a fanboy or anything, but I always love the quality of the Big N's stuff.

Its amazing the power of marketting and lemmings that fall for a product based on keeping up with the most expensive prettiest thing.

Not saying either of the 3 systems is bad, but there was one comment that made me laugh.....

"Mine works fine, and the quality of sound is tremendous ..I know what I'm talking about, as it comes from my expensive BOSE system"

that second last word just shot all credibilty buddy had...hahah
BoSe
'Buy Other Sound Equipment'


It seems a lot of people are saying the 360 is basically XBOX1.5
same xbox, better graphics...
And its growing tiresome already to a lot of reviewers.

I wonder if they are seeing how the revolution is shapping up and saying 'why aren't these other companies doing ANYTHING to counter, other than good graphics'

Like a good lookin girl... looks wears off .... if she isn't cool... the juice isn't worth the squeeze

I played madden 06 at an eb games and it was amazing. Really a big step up from Xbox. And their are plenty of trailors for new games coming out in Q1 06. But im not gonna buy it cuz i know the PS3 and the revolution can do a lot better.

ign doesnt really seem to like the 360 that much tho.. they made two articles, one listing 10 reasons to skip it and wait for the PS3, and another one for the revolution.

10 reasons PS3
10 reasons Revolution

that is :crazy: danggggggg. hmph. hopefully not 800. Games are 60 already at gamestop for march 06, so maybe ps3 will be out then. bundles with 360 are about 500 buckaroos, i think.

if u have new xbox what r some complaining about, the rebooting/freezing??
