Guest sith lord Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 It has been reported all over the net that Microsoft will be releasing more units to retailers as early as this week. And I say it's about time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heidenreich Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Is it any good? I can go out & drop $400 like nothing, but I'm not excited to get it, like I was when systems came out in the old days....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can go out & drop $400 like nothing, but I'm not excited to get it, like I was when systems came out in the old days....... From what I hear, if you have a HD TV, it's the way to go. I have not played one yet, but I've seen examples on the net and the visuals far exceeds anything I've ever seen in video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonBurgundy&Gold Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I'm a PS2 head and have always been anti-xbox, mainly due to the controllers. But I played Madden on the 360 on an HDTV and now cannot wait to get one. Hard to explain just how good the visuals are. Plus I'm hearing the Playstation is going to be even more expensive than the 360 and won't be out until near X-mas. If I run into a premium system, I'm going to pick it up.

Fatty P For The Pulitzer Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 well its about time....you figure microsoft would make a bunch, you know so people can actually buy the damn thing.....if microsoft wants to get ahead before the P23 they better start pumping them out...-Grant As soon as PS3 sets a launch date, Microsoft will prepare to flood the stores with 360s and Halo 3 a few weeks prior to that date. Right now I think they're taking their time to not spend too much money on 1st launch machines, to make sure the system has no bugs and that it's as popular as they planned. I have a 360, and don't have an HDTV yet (though I plan to get one soon), and I think it's got better graphics than original XBox. Not a huge amount better, but definitely more clear, and the big difference imo is the graphics stay sharp and clear when moving around in games. Call of Duty 2 is money, definitely the best and most realistic war game I've ever played. I have played 360 on an HDTV too and it's not even close how much more powerful it is than XBox or PS2. It was definitely a good purchase for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Ghost Recon Advanced Warrior looks and plays amazing -- as does Call of Duty 2. Madden looks great, but EA obviously rushed it and left out a bunch of features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBkilla56 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I would say avoid madden right now and wait for the 07 version. Its just way too bare bones right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4thStBully Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 hey i am diehard playstation fan but due to the news last week on a november launch date i bought a 360. i have NEVER played an xbox before but i must admit, its growing on me. i bought nba2k6 and Ghost Recon. i wasnt immediately impressed but after further review the 360 is a great platform. GRAW is incredibly fun online. if you have an HDTV and are a gamer, its a great purchase. btw i bought the core system and purchased the hard drive seperately. if you cannot get the premier all you have to do is get the hard drive; its no big deal at all esp. if you already have an ethernet cord for online play. the wireless controller is great also.

ashburnskinsfan Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I'm a big fan of the xbox 360. I bought a HD projector and we game on a 100" screen. I'd strongly recommend the premium system. There are many downloadable and playable demos of popular titles. For this you need Xbox live and a hard drive. For the live experience, having a headset is also essential, and thus the core system is only for those who want a HD gaming box with no desire to experience online gaming. In my experience, 90% of the fun is in online gaming against real people rather than the limited artificial intelligence the computer offers.
