X-BOX 360

Is the X-BOX 360 really worth the 399.00 dollers or should i wait for bigger and better things to buy?

It depends. Some of the games it has are really fun, but most of the fun comes from the multiplayer on those games, like DOA 4 or Call of Duty 2. But soon more single player games will be coming out, like Oblivion (OMFGONAFODINIAFNIGWANTITNOWINEEDIT), which would enhance the single player aspect.

If you're willing to wait a bit longer for the second wave of games for it, then you might enjoy the 360, but as it stands, you could buy an older console and a bunch of games for it and have fun with that (Like I did when I got a Gamecube for Christmas).

I, personally, would use the $399 to upgrade my PC. One could allocate that money to any array of things to make their PC perform better. Memory + Video Card, Mobo + CPU, etc. But, as I get older I become less enchanted by consoles, so that may be why I lean in this direction.

No, its not worth that much. Then again, I'm really cheap. I buy systems when they're $150, and I buy used games. Up till about 6 months ago the only games I ever bought were used ps1 games. They cost $5-$15, and I find them to be just as enjoyable as a new ps2 game. Then now that there are hardly any ps1 games for sale anymore, I start buying used ps2 games. Its so much cheaper.

So yeah, don't waste your money on buying a new system. Wait till the price goes down. Plus a lot of times new systems have bugs in them and aren't worked out till later.

Don't but an 360... ever

Either a PS3 or the Nintendo Revolution in march (drools...) I'm def gettin the rev asap. You can download nes - 64 games onto it.

300 dollars is my limit. I think above that price for a video game system is plain stupid. So, i rather wait a year or so until it lowers.

anyway- upgrade your computer- most of the games for the 360 like call of duty 2 are on the computer neway

NO! The XBOX 360 you can buy for 299, but that will only play 360 games (No regular) and lacks an internal memory. But for 399 you can get one with a harddrive, but even then it will only play MAYBE 1/3rd of the original XBOX games.

Hell yeah! Oblivion is gonna rock.
Anyways, I think the 360 is worth it. So far, I've been loving mine- but only get it if you can get Xbox Live.

True, but this is legally!

[rush_fan]

lol- no offense, but if you have rpgm 2k or 2k3, you already broke a law

I will probably just buy a 299.00 X-BOX 360 System.
