if you do the math, X= $54,865,375,173.50 in profits from unit and game sales~~

LOL.
I will be getting one at some point. Just gotta get the HD tv first. There weren't any games I saw that I really had to play.

Kensn · 11-22-2005, 07:52 PM

Lets see, how many times have I regretted by a microsoft product as soon as it came out...........

Woodstock · 11-22-2005, 08:02 PM

I don't see what the big fuss is about a console game anyway... once you've tasted the PC gaming played on the internet with a fun loving group of adults, you'll never go to a console again... atleast I won't. I'd much rather have a screaming machine like Ken's!

The ONLY reason I will get Xbox is simply for the EA sports games. Nothing like playing NCAA football or basball on xbox live. Plus me and my roomate like to start dynasties against each other on xbox.
When it comes to rpg or FPS games I prefer the computer, but for some reason I really enjoy playing my sports games on the big screen against my buds.
EA sports has taken quite a bit of my cash, and I don't regret any of it

Oh yeah, I have to give the nod to consoles for driving/racing games. Loved the gran tourismo series on PS/ps2, and Forza is a blast (although I can't hang with the a lot of the guys online).

That is true Mike, the sports games and the car games rock on console... especiall if you have a very large screen

Kensn · 11-23-2005, 01:25 AM

I don't know, playing Indy car games on my lan is pretty good.... we never seem to finish a race though .... someone usally get gooffy and starts runing into people..... I do have a wheel and pedal setup though....

My daughter loves "Need for speed"! She has mastered every car available.

mps9506 · 11-23-2005, 09:27 AM

The NFS series on the the computer is great. I just like it on the console better for some reason.
I'd be suprised if any other car game pulls me from Forza motorsports withing the next year though. Incredible game.

Hehe, you called it!

XBOX 360 problems, click here

Witfull · 11-24-2005, 06:47 AM

wow! i never would have guessed~~

i got my son an xbox the first yr they came out,,,,it just recently had a meltdown of microsoftic porportions. on thing i can say is customer service was great. we UPS'd it to them and emailed tracking # to them as requested. the day after it arrived at the service center, we had a new one delivered by UPS, with 2 new controllers as a bonus.

Kensn · 11-24-2005, 12:19 PM

Dave that sounds like excellent CS. I wonder why they don't ship us all avid gaerms one, they would conquere the market, and make their money on the games!!!

I just got Call Of Duty 2 last night, I must say it is pretty good. I have not played any of the WWII shooters, and this one seems to be well balanced in regular mode. I set up my Nostromo game pad, and went in shooting..... and dying... a little rusty on the controll pad.... Gotta watch out for those grenades. I made it throgh the first couple of missions... I am gonna try a little deathmatch with the son today... I hate to have to kill the little nerd on thanksgiving....

P.S i'm gonna kick his behind, son person.
