I got one for my brother for Christmas.
It really is as good as they show on tv. Once Nitendo took care of the arm strap problem that is.

It's like having one of the virtual arcade games in your home. Just smaller, according to the size of your tv screen. I only used it a couple of times but really like it. My brother was pretty excited to get it too.

The XBox 360 is the coolest video gaming system out right now- IMO.

There's SO many cool extras..

Nah, not really... just depends on what you happen to enjoy. Look how much some people have spent on PC's/laptops. ;) Most of them's ain't cheap, either. :lol:

I suppose thats a matter of opinion.... and hobby... and budget. :D

I don't have children or rent/car payment, so I can afford to pay 'too much' for video games, I guess. Not to mention the other stuff I splurge on.
IMO, its dumb to spend $30 on eye shadow, but go into Belk's and you'll see someone spending that much on one color... *shrugs* Just depends on what you like and what you wanna do with your money...

I guess I'm not a big fan of the PS3 mostly b/c of the hype that came with their debut. I will give it props for playing the blue ray... BUT Xbox 360 has SO many more cooler features- HD being one of the best. Not to mention, the graphics are beautiful and you can download episodes of your favorite shows, music videos- you can rent movies, etc.. Image
