Yay for Xbox 360
« on: November 22, 2005, 11:50:59 am »
I have to say, I'm actually somewhat impressed, considering that I didn't think I'd like it.  I purchased two from Wal-Mart and was going to sell both on eBay, but I just HAD to open one up, and I fell in love with it.

Did anyone else get one? What are your thoughts and what games did you get?  I got Madden '06 and Perfect Dark Zero.  I'll have my hard drive tommorow so I can get on Live.

Nope I distinctly recall Ballard saying at a conference it was a global release, everyone at the same time.  Figures there would be a two week delay between America and Europe

Eh, my rig's nothing special.  I got the core system on a 24-inch Sanyo flat screen (not flat panel) TV, no HD, although I have composite on it.  For the audio I have some $99 Altec Lansing PC speakers hooked up to the audo jacks.  All in all, it's a pretty ghetto setup, but it works fine for me.

I've got to admit, that's damn funny.  If I were rich, I'd bash in Xbox 360 in front of a crowd of fat guys to watch them sweat and squirm.  I love my 360 though, so I guess I'll let them do the dirty work. :(

P.S., currently listing mine for $999.99.  Let's see which fishies bite!  If it goes at that price I'll definately get rid of the second one and pre-order a bundle.  It's amazing what people will pay for something they really, really want.

I hear those things are crashing like crazy.  Though, I'm willing to bet it's a small handful of the things and is just being over-reported.  The kicker is that people are actually surprised.  As if they expected a Microsoft product to not crash.

I'll wait for the PS3.  Mmmm... shiny, reflective black casing.
