Don't Buy the Xbox 360
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,175860,00.html
http://www.1up.com/do/feature?pager....=1&cId=3145154 Mainly like tons of other articles, they basically say that its just more expensive than you think. it's all marketing. get the 299 system, you will, in the end end up paying what everone else is. 399. just to get it to play games. it's also got the same old DVD format. Remember ths PS2 launch? yeah, it was a 300$ dvd player, when dvd players cost 200 bucks. (shortly after, it was a 200$ dvd player + video game system, really shortly, few months as i recall) The xbox 360? well its got a hard drive-less unit, a hard drive unit, and apparently a hd-dvd unit later on. gay. Ps3? blue-ray drive on launch. $299. Look at the dreamcast, and the xbox360. they are similar, ive seen articles of that failed system and such, compaired to xbox360. on that note, how many back games on the xbox would i want to play? halo? a mediocre 3d shooter with a GAMEPAD? or Fable? A short but fun rpg? Their online is tops, ill admit, but their games suck ass. I'll hold my check for a ps3, and FF12/13, MGS4, GTA4, etc. etc. etc. etc. If I was a parent, and oddly didn't own a PS2, I would for sure buy one for christmas. what's better? a 500$ xbox 360, with 1 so-so game? or a ps2 and a dozen award winning best sellers? sure super snarf man looks graphically good on x360, but man gameplay is gay. I'd much rather have a GOOD game on the PS2 than a mediocre one on the xbox 360. but then im a long time gamer, who knows my shit. not to discount xbox360 will get a good game, eventually. but it looks stupid to me to buy it outright, with 0 good games. Comon, the PS2 has a giant collection of games which are fun as hell. the xbox has very little, and no japanese support. everyone I know who likes the xbox plays sports games, and isn't much of a gamer. point proven to me. based on 20 years of studying on systems, marketing, and an avid gamer, who knows people in the industry, Microsoft will have to work hard to get me to buy their system. Their launch games all look like nothing I want to play. not a good selling point. Not like im a sellout for sony, if the ps3 sucks and has crappy titles, i wouldn't buy it either, but still. With their japanese backing, and Rockstar, etc etc, im sure they will have a good launch, if they do so in spring next year, if they bypass the heating problem they encountered so far. Sorry, my .02 c. I see microsoft launching another dreamcast, and I see sony doing the exact same thing yet again which made the ps2 such a success. Xbox people don't like to admit they outsell the gamecube be very little, and in the negatives in Japan by a huge margin. 360 Backwards Compatibility Lacking In Japan Xbox 360 Not Hi-Def Enough? How Bad Will The 360 Shortage Be? XBOX 360=Dreamcast 2.0? Microsoft Plans Deliberate Xbox 360 Shortage all from slashdot, the #1 tech news site.

you're dreaming if you think the PS3 will only cost $299
how do you know all the launch games completely suck? PGR3 and Perfect Dark will surely be good

It will be far from another dreamcast as sega was in financial trouble and M$ is not. It's going to be a great system as will the PS3 and the N. Revolution will be uniqe as well. It's about the games and they will all have thier highpoints.

I have seen m$ pad japanese game companies, as well as setup a xbox360 lounge in japan. curious, but as it stands now, i expect it to end up being like the xbox again. Truthfully, i hope it rocks so sony has to really fight them. competition = better products/games for us.

My philosophy is that the Xbox 360 will be the TOP system for at least 5 months, so if that's the case, I'm gonna buy it because I'm a gamer
![]() As far as the PS2 beating the Xbox, I agree that the PS2 does have a lot of great games compared to the library of Xbox original games, HOWEVER when it comes to graphics, the Xbox is better. |

Until we get it in our hands we can't really form a valid opinion. But sony seems to have a magic power to make everybody think that everything that they do is the best and that is more than half the battle there.

Anyone know where their manufacturing facilities are? If not China, why don't they make it there so the price can be lower (of course, chips are made elsewhere but maybe Chinese components/labor for the rest of the box would lower the price)?

On that note, ps2 outsells everything out now by a large margin, and I think they have some great titles out.

A big misquote was the PS2 was sold at a loss. Perhaps in the first months, but from all i've read, it wasn't. xbox 360 i've read is being sold at -100$ a unit.

For all of the people that complain about the prices of these systems, I look at it this way. If you drop $400 on a system that's gonna be around for 3-4 years, isn't that worth it ? I can buy a $400 video card to put in my computer and it'll be outdated before then. |

um... have you seen what they are going for on ebay? 700$ average. And there is a reason for it. The Target near my house, in a college town is getting 6 total. 6. The GameStop near my house presold 50, guess how many they are getting in.... fucking 4. 4 total. They have created the huge shortage. So if you can find one, buy it and put it on ebay. This is the christmas gift for the year. Tickle Me Elmo of 2005.

The time it took you to write that long post you could've sold more porn and had enough to buy both consoles and judge for yourself.
![]() seriously though: SELL MORE PORN = BUY BOTH CONSOLES You say you're a true "gamer", yet your post seems more like all the fanboy flamewars on 1up & IGN, etc... most true "gamers" that are members of my mainstream sites buy all consoles and portables. It's ALL about the gameplay... PERIOD. Doesn't matter if your passion is Tetris, EQ, Halo, Final Fantasy or Steel Battalion... it boils down to whatever games help you escape reality & enjoy what little free time you have. Just play. ![]() The only thing I hate about the 360 is that my techie's expecting ME to drop $1000 next week for his 360bundle as an early xmas gift. ![]() ![]() . |

THIS IS THE MOST BIASED PIECE OF SHIT THREAD i HAVE EVER READ ON GFY. JUST AS BIASED AS THAT PIECE OF SHIT NEWS NETWORK THAT YOU QUOTE, FOX NEWS, IS FOR GOD DAMN REPUBLICANS.
MS can throw enough cash at it to make it win. They increased dividends because they have 50 billion in the bank doing nothing. They could buy EA and make all their shit exclusive. MS is kingshit. Sony is a piece of shit. Also, PS3 is currently expected to pack a $600 price tag. Your 2nd link desciribes how 360 will prevail, fool. The only thing you said that has any truth at all is the $300 version is a bad deal. You save $70 (you have to spend $30 on a memory card that day) but you will buy 2 or 3 memory cards, you dont have backwards compatibility, and more... Buy both cheap fuck.

The Xbox 360 is going to redefine console gaming. The PS2 is for fags and this thread is gay. Go kill yourself now.

It's also interesting how many gaming companies FAR prefer the xbox 360. It's apparently very easy to write for whereas the new PS is getting like PC's ie too dependant on backwards compatibility making for confusing architecture that can be difficult to write for if you want the best performance. |

Halo was a great game when you consider that it was pretty close to a launch title for the xbox. That game came out in 2001 and I've yet to play a console fps that tops it.
I'm not a huge fps fan, but I do know a quality game when I see one and as far as shooters go my ranking goes: Half-Life, Halo, and Perfect Dark. Considering that all 3 of those are on or will be on some version of an Xbox console says a lot. The only thing Xbox owners were missing, in my opinion, were the Final Fantasies, but i believe there are plans to have a FF MMORPG on the Xbox 360. Speaking of RPGs I really enjoyed the KOTOR series as well. |

the hardware is worth much more than they are selling it for... wait till they figure out how to hack it, though I don't think you will be able to run Windows on it since they went with PowerPC, probably deliberately... But if they can find a way to hack it, it could double as another cheap PC....
