i might get xbox360 - any good, your reviews?
 

hey hey.

wanna buy something neat for christmas for myself and I have been earning a lot from sigwhoring these past few months, so thought about one of the new games consoles.

I cant be bothererd to wait for the ps3, that comes out here in march i think, the Wii just looks gay. I dont think i would like that controller.

so that leaves the xbox360, whos got one, what are they like, is it worth buying one? the games? are they any good? price vs value? games are loads, but are they jam packed

oh yeh and whats "live" like? i only have a 512k connection here, will it lag like a bitch on crack? how much is it per month again?


gimme some info, give me your opinions.

bump bump

sorry, haven't got one.. not much for gaming consoles..

alright man, no problem, thanks for the bump, heres another

i love my 360, kept me occupied for hours when i was working on the road over the summer. there's a pile of great games, and with the price dropping pretty drastically right now, you can get one at a pretty reasonable price. i haven't seen a ps3 in action yet, but i can only assume that it will come with all the problems every first generation sony console comes with. i'd say wait on the ps3 and pick up the 360. and make sure you buy deadrising...

fuck video games

cool stuff man, sorry i havent replied to you on icq for a while i have so so busy and my icq has been playing up. i will contact u later on, when its all fixed.

Same. Can't be bothered with the wait for PS3. Nintendo is for 5 year olds.

Think i will just ask the gf nicely for a 360 for xmas... :pimp

I love my 360. It's the best console I have ever owned by far. Also, before you guys rip on the wii too much, you should play one of the demo units in stores. It's surprisingly fun. I'll be buying one as soon as I am sure the first run units are problem free.

fun gets boring after a while, i want a challenge! :thumbsup

360 is fun.

Its not a bad console, just loud as fuck and overheating, too. I have one and play it, just for the same reason like you. PS3 will be out in March over here. I can't wait to get a PS3, so I can sell the xbox.

I'd imagine a wii is challenging too. I haven't spent enough time playing to know for sure. A 360 will definitely challenge you.

Yeah i'm looking to get one for my bro for xmas

Xbox360 rocks... I am addicted to BattleField II

Freaking awesome game online.

I love mine but be smart and get a service plan from your dealer. I have replaced mine once already for overheating.

Call of Duty 3 ROCKS.

ninety nine nights on 360 is prtty sweet as well

i would't knock the wii either, i can see it being an interesting little console. i see alot of potential from what i checked out on the demo unit...

so what about online is 512k good enoughj?

It should be. I wouldn't try to host any games but you will be able to play without many problems...unless whoever is hosting your game is also on a 512.

love it get gears of war

and whats the charge? do xbox charge a fee to log on to their system?

Jesus, do you ever look for any info on your own?

alot of games come with free trials for xbox live, i got something like 4 months worth the free coupons now.

nope! gfy is quick, gives advice from that of the real consumer and gives honest reviews.

:upsidedow :upsidedow :upsidedow :upsidedow

XBOX Live rocks. I buy games just to play it online.

Most of the coupons are only good for 48 hours now. They had too many people acting like tools and getting banned only to come back with a new account a few minutes later. I've noticed that since they stopped doing the free month or 2 free months thing that a lot of the smacktards have gone back to PS2 online games since they can't afford xbl.

I wish sony would charge to play ps2/3 games online. Socom is a blast but when you get a game full of 10 year olds singing and calling each other faggots it really kills the game in a hurry.

gfy? :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

When you're right, you're right. :1orglaugh

Had a 360 for months, fucking LOVE it! Love the titles, love the graphics, love the controllers. Love it.

The grapics look great, especially on HD. I've been playing NHL2K7.. I love it

bump bump

Battlefield 2 rocks! :thumbsup

playing geometry wars when ever i need to raise the bloodpreasure a little..

love my xbox360...

i think i will get the priemum xbox plus fifa 2007 and battlefield or call of duty - good idea? how much is online for fifa?

Freaking geometry wars. I love/hate that game. It's the only game I have that makes me want to throw my controller.

If you're into the live arcade games, check out UNO. Yes, that card game you probably used to play as a kid. It's surprisingly fun on the 360, especially late at night when drunks have their cameras on. I've seen everything from people doing bong hits to a guy getting a blowjob while playing.

fifa is not bad, not sure what sport that is though...I guess you are looking for footbal, so get Pro Evolution Soccer

i'd go for it, less expensive than the ps3 and seemingly just as good.

Gears of War and Oblivion.

I've donated my husband to the xbox360 cause. He can't get enough of it.

Send 5 sales to PimpRoll on friday the 24th and win one :)

I'm thinking of getting one too. I havent had a game console since super nintendo. After I get a big 1080p DLP it might be a sweet toy. I think it's best to get one now after some kinks have been worked out.
