Never buy a new system when it first comes out. I laugh at the idiots buying the $1000 ones on eBay.

I can't think of anything to put here right now.

btw from the 2 hours or so that I’ve played PDZ it seems like a ok game, nothing great but its not horrible like some people were saying. Graphics at 720p seem to be a little better then HL2 on my pc(x800pro) in some situations and in some a little worse. I only got to play about 20min of COD2, but from what I’ve seen graphics are the same as my pc so that is kind of disappointing.

He makes me happy I bought my new PC instead of going with the lesser-costin 360. *sigh of relief*

And I just wouldn't buy an Xbox 360 anyway, just because it's an xbox. I hate those control pads.

nope.

A Mircosoft product that crashes, is this surprising?

Hahaha, a clever trick, Echoman. We all noticed that the first letters of the words in your sentence spell out AMPTCITS. You're apparently not as sneaky as you think!

The 360 is locked untill the launch day. You get about 30min to 60 mins of play and then auto shutdowns. Set the date on your system to after Nov 22nd. :D.

The date on the thread is November 21.
You all lose!

I don't believe that, since no one is listening to him anyways.

I think I'm going to head down to the mall tomorrow and watch the nerds fight over the xboxes. That should prove entertaining.

It took a while for you to find me; I was hiding in the lime tree.

This is a good reason why you should wait a while until a system drops $100 in price before buying it.

why would they fight over them? they all sold out on launch day and there won't be any more for a while

the only xbox they could fight over is the kind that stores generally have enough of for any possible demand that might pop up

eat right, exercise, die anyway
