I probably won't get it until Christmas 2006. By then the price will have gone down and it will probably have been improved a bit. _________________

On the 21st me and my friend are going to GameStop around 11:50pm, since he has one reserved. They'll be having a "Midnight 360" party where you can pick up your new Xbox and game against the other people there for a few hours. Then after that I plan on spending every waking hour for about a week straight playing Call of Duty. |

Call Of Duty 2!
Of course I'm already playing that on my computer, so why spend the extra $500 on a system and a game?
x360 is pretty cool, I was playing one the day before yesterday. Someday I might get one. |

i'll wait. i don't use my xbox enough to justify spending $400 on a new model. like someone else said, will probably wait until next year when it's cheaper, but i will get one eventually. |

What's the difference between the Premium edition and the regular? My guess is they put silver plastic around the Xbox on the Premium and add $100 to the price. Is that true? _________________

WAIT A SEC....
"Halo is just running around shooting aliens."
Jagriff3 did you just insult Halo 2?
one of the greatest games since the dawn of time, voted 10/10 by basically every major review. _________________

I think Halo is the best game made for Xbox, some people just buy an Xbox for Halo, does anyone know when Halo 3 is coming out? I probably wont get an Xbox 360 until next christmas either. _________________

Bill Gates said Halo 3 was coming out the day of the PS3,
and some other Microsoft Exc. said it was coming out 06-07
But Bungie(people who make Halo) have yet to OFFICALLY realise details of their new secret project.
*I wonder what it could be*
And if it is not Halo 3, look for many Xbox 360s to be on Ebay _________________

Now I see Microsoft is smarter than the other companies who resell something with a different appearance and add $$$ to the price for no reason. I knew Bill Gates was a genius. _________________

I'm not sure if I should admire your dedicacation, or scorn your fanboy-ism.
Personally, I have an unexplained hatred towards Microsoft, so I'll pass on the 360 unless I see something that really draws me to it.
Since I have a PS2, the PS3 is practically a shoe-in unless they go through with that pathetic attempt to prevent piracy.
I'm actually most excited about the Revolution, as usual Nintendo is remaining the only console company attempting to be innovative, and I'm hoping that it will pay off for them this time. Their little TV remote controller looks odd, but I'm not going to shoot it down until I try it. Plus, if the motion-sensing technology Nintendo's promising for it lives up to my expectations, I think it will be amazing. The fact that you will be able to download classic NES/SNES/N64 games on it is a major plus too.  _________________

same here! there was about 200 people lined up outside my local best buy as i was heading to the subway this morning. don't these people have jobs?
i never understood the whole "line up overnight" thing. couldn't you just stop by later in the day to buy it or pre-order it and have it delivered? |

I got mine last night at GameStop and got home to play it at 12.15...
Call of Duty 2.. omg, Call of Duty 2.. omg.. omg Call of Duty 2.
Played Perfect Dark also, to be honest it wasn't as cool as I expected but the multiplayer was still fun like it was for N64.
But Call of Duty 2.. omg. |

I'm glad to say I have Call Of Duty 2 on the PC.
I had this thought as I was talking to Hotshot about the x360s on Ebay now.
There is this TERRIBLE tv show called Dance 360. Their main prize was always an Xbox.
So now are they going to be giving away the Xbox 360?
I better get practicing on my dance moves....  |

Personally, I think the whole idea of buying a system right when it's released when there's two more next-generation systems on the way is a bit ridiculous, especially considering how much trouble a lot of people go through to get it.
I won't be getting anything until all three consoles (360, PS3, Revolution) are out, because it would be nothing less than foolish if you ended up wasting even more money on another system when the first one doesn't live up to your expectations.
Then again, if you've got the money, I suppose there's no reason not to try and grab one as soon as you can. _________________

you can, but only if you have the Hard-Drive, because you need to download software.
Which means you can play the best games (Halo 2, Forza) on launch dya, but might have to wait some time for rubbish games (Big Mutha Truckers 2: Keep of Trucking) _________________

As Alex said, you can. However, there are a few games that you can't.

I don't think the addition of a next-gen system is going to make my life much more fulfilling if I die at the age of 18.
Especially if it's an XBox.  _________________
