Re: OT: Thinking About Buying An XBox360
I got a playstation 2 for my birthday once, maybe about 1.5 years after it came out. It wasn't too bad. I had played the first ps and loved it, I even bought one towards the end of it's life (maybe a year before ps2 came out). Had it for maybe a year before I started getting "disk read error" Tried several different things, nothing worked. Made me so angry (after having just bought a much anticpated game then not being able to play it) that I just gave it to my younger brother and told him he could keep it if he got it working....well, he didn't. So I won't get a PS3 (unless I become so rich that I need to throw money away). And as some ppl who sat inline in front of a store the night before launch and were going to sell it on ebay said "All the good games won't be out for a year at least anyway". Onto the Wii, looks intresting, haven't played it yet, I used to love nintendo, I had the first nintendo, SNES, and the N64. Once Gamecube came out I had been turned off of nintendo, it just seems they were trying to gear everything towards 6-12 yr olds (sorry, Mario just dont cut it for me anymore, though I wouldn't mind zelda) IF I had to buy a console it would be the Wii but for only one reason......X360 I own one already, it's great, I bought a Xbox after my PS2 stopped working and loved it so I figured I would love 360, haven't been disappointed yet. I grew up being a console gamer (parents were too poor to buy a PC untill I was about 16) Now I'm more of a PC gamer (being that strategy games are my fav. genre) but still enjoy grabbing a controller and chainsawing someone in GoW or sniping someone in Halo 2.
