anyone Preorder Xbox 360???

[4dmin]

i just preordered mine today... shit is going to be 499.99$ :eek: but will be well worth it :goodjob:

[ironchef]

id wait like 3 months or so till it comes down to the typical $300 level. Thats just way to expensive for a console imo.

[Negrodamus]

PS3 will own and 499.99 is retarted

[Brett]

$499? Please tell me thats just the bundle that has every option? I will NEVER pay $500 for a game system, then on top of that the games will start out at $59.99 also, Both the new systems can suck my dick if thats the case......

[Nittanys1]

shiat...thats alot for anything in the gaming department......

[4dmin]

i doubt any of the new systems will be around 300$ anytime soon...

[soul]

why preorder now? why not wait 6 months, and preorder 1-2 weeks before release........

[4dmin]

^ the eb games i went to was only gettting 30 and i got the 29th... if you guys remember when ps2 came out if you didn't get it preorder or stand in line for 24hours, you had to pay 750-1000$ on ebay or just wait 6months. so if you want it for x-mas i would preorder

Where did you see it was $499.99?

[4dmin]

^ well when i preordered it it flashed up on the register 50$ of 499.99$ for xbox 360... it may not be true but thats what i saw, i know i read it was supposed to be 300-400$ not 500$, so i'm going to call around to today and post up what i find from local retailers :goodjob:

[Rican219]

[PD code 805D]

the only way im getting it is if the x3 plays the older xbox games also.

[topsecret2JZ]

[topsecret2JZ]

[4dmin]

oh im not into live so besides that just graphics... fuck that ill stick with ps2

you should really check out 360 screen shots, b/c xbox is better than ps2 and 360 will be the devastator to the industry, i look at it this way i would jump on board before it takes over :D (any man who is willing to keep taking a 1 billion $$$ loss each year has only one agenda ;) world domination)

[mocha latte cupcake]

well come on paul, show me some screen shots! convert a PS2 kid for a wanna be 360 boy. SCREEN SHOTS SCREEN SHOTS SCREEN SHOTS!

[JITB]

PS3 is said to not be able to be any sheaper than 450$ because of the blu - ray disc thingie they are using. The 350 is supposed to be 300-350$. IM gonna preorder it when a price comes out.

[4dmin]

the new xbox is all wireless, loads like 4 disc through the tray, you can surf the web, chat w/ friends online, file share w/ your home network, video conferencing, purchase game upgrades, just about everything but make you toast this thing is pretty hot... Morrowind, Godfather, Resident Evil, Dead or Alive, & Need for Speed pix below

[IanHavok]

if PS3 is 450 and the XBOX360 is 350, im gonna have to go with Xbox. They both seem to offer the same amount of gaming and other cool shit, but the extra hundred i save on buying an Xbox is what would make me buy it over the PS3..

Sorry Sony:o

[IanHavok]

just about everything but make you toast

What no TOAST!!!!!!

[efman]

the only way im getting it is if the x3 plays the older xbox games also.
ya does any one know if it plays the old games ?

[4dmin]

^ it will but only the big titles like the xbox live ones or anything else they make $$$ on ;)
