finally decided to get a 360

guy at work sold me his premium version for 150$ plus taking his on call week during xmas, how could i refuse?

only have tiger woods 07 for now.
impressed so far, gonna have to find a VGA cable for it.  curious how 1080P looks

sweet deal if you don\'t mind working around christmas.  360 keeps looking more and more tempting as time goes on.  I have a feeling I\'ll be owning one in the next 3 months or so.

MM budged for MS\' 360 !? :eek: An early Xmas miracle perhaps ?

While your at it, looking for a VGA cable, you\'ll get Gears of War too, right ?

Nah its not a miracle. Its just $150

good deal... payed 280euro for a non-used second hand premium back in may.

of course I could recommend you some games, but my guess is you\'re a pretty well informed guy, so....

I have a cheaper alternative for 360....use my roommates Gears of War is insane though.

dude im Elzer0, add me ill give you a game!!

I would suggest Dead Rising.

I\'ve been contemplating getting a 360 for a good while now.. I got the cash to get one now.. If I saw a sweet deal for one I\'d probably pull the trigger.

Sony better drop the price tag before I\'ll even consider their machine

I just received an email from Microsoft indicating that my XBox 360 warranty has been extended to one year.  I think it was three months originally.  However, I\'ve had my 360 for about 8 months and haven\'t encountered any problems.

My name is Spiral Architek on Live if anyone wants to get schooled at Call of Duty 3, or Gears of War.

still only have Tiger Woods 2007, but have been playing it like it\'s going out of style.

got a giftcard for xmas, so even picked up the HD-DVD drive.

heh, the whole setup only cost me 200$
hard to pass it up.

what i still don\'t like is the community.
every xbox forum on the net is ruined by the real fanboi\'s

Probably. I\'ve been a big advocate of Xbox Live, for example, but most of my exposure is limited to typically level-headed, enjoyable experiences with games like Texas Hold \'Em and before that, Tetris Worlds.

There are a lot of young clowns mucking up a lot of the more popular titles. I guess that spills over online.
