So I caved and bought an Xbox 360

And I must say I'm very impressed. The graphics and sound ar amazing on my 42" and surround sound compared to my old regular Xbox.

I paid just under $500 for the premium bundle and EB Games gave me $100 redit for my old system and a few games.

My gamer tag is M DumbASS if anyone wants to play Ghost Recon AW.

So they say, but also at twice the cost of a 360. From the specs of the PS3, they look very similar. I don't see why it will be better. I'm content anyway.

Twice the cost? The street price reported now is 659.00, that not that far off form the 360 premium price when it first dropped

Ya, the new XBOX does look pretty good, I've played it a couple times I was impressed....

I think the PS3 is gonna flop...to expensive and to late...

looking forward to the Wii, think its going to be the value system...plus being able to play old games

it's never too late to introduce a new video game console.
it's going to sell, and it's going to do quite well.


Wii on the other hand looks insane. I'd rather have one of those.

PS3 will win again. If people had no problem paying $1000+ for a 360 and PS2, things won't change.
I just hope I can a PS3 like I've been promised so I can make some $$$.

If anything the 360 will flop ala Dreamcast, except MS has money to burn unlike Sega back in the day.

Actually, if you think about it from a marketing and economic perspective, you would know that Sony's biggest problem right is that they keep pushing their release date back. This give X-Box and Nintendo Christmas again to do some major selling while Sony doesn't come out until spring. Now, think about it, if you could buy your kids X-box or nintendo for x-mas, which lots will, would you buy them PS3? Granted, some will, but most wont. Sony is too late on this one. Plus their price is too high. And who really cares about blueray? Im not paying $80 for those stupid cds!
