    I went ahead and reserved one because IMO madden and nba live look amazing. Plus There are a ton of sweet games coming out for it including the new ghost recon. If you go to blockbuster A few stores have some spots left. They are getting 10 per store and they are the platinum packages which include

    -Xbox 360 console
    -20GB detachable hard drive
    -wireless controller
    -wireless Xbox Live headset
    -high-definition AV cables
    -ethernet cable
    -Xbox 360 Media Remote Control (limited time)
    -detachable faceplate
    -Xbox Live Silver membership.

    price is 399.99 and if you want just the system with a controller its like 299.99. Blockbuster makes you put 100.00 minimum down on it.

    i'm thinking to go back to the PC for gaming, the whole non-reverse compatability of the 360 is leaving a bad taste in my mouth, and i can tweak my system as i see fit (including entertainment center intergration).
     
  6. I'm thinking of getting the new nintendo. The ability to go DL all the original games from the NES and SNES is a real plus for an old timer like me.

    i'm going to get it, but after PS3 is out. i think the price will go down about a hundred bucks. just so Bill can F--- with Sony. he's a bastard, but he makes a kick ass gaming unit. who's into Forza right now? i'm so addicted, it hurts. my screen name on Live is "Superdude555" if you feel like looking me up.

    I will get an Xbox 360, but I am not paying for it. I am going to win one thru that Mountain Dew, every 10 minutes sweepstakes.

    the reverse capabilities will be available if you get the one with the 20 gig hd.

    The nintendo is gonna be saweet.

    The ps3 they are saying might be postponed till 2007 bc it will cost around 700 bucks as of right now because of what it has. They iwll have to tone it down a ton to get it cheap enough.

    the original battlefield is fun as crap. So is vietnam. im sure battlefield 2 will be just as good. Toca looks real almost till you get right on the pic.
     
  18. Personally i am highly doubtful it will actually look like that (that racing game one) the "x-box360" in E3 was actually modified Apple G5s

    PS3 will rape that machine...and my computer ;_;

    Eagerly awaiting the PS3 myself, never been a big fan of XBOX... the 360 does look pretty sweet though....

    i just wish i could get hard details on any of these systems. They are keeping everything very silent.

    well if you're really that inspired to do a website, i do it for a living (design, information architecture and administration too), just remember that having a site that's worthwhile is quite time consuming (ask alex). i may register it just to have a cool url in the future.
