[QUOTE="TBoogy"]I know. I don't get it.[QUOTE="Jandurin"][QUOTE="Teufelhuhn"]I don't really see how this makes sense. "Hey you just dropped 3 grand on this PC for playing games, now here's your 360!"Jandurin
Well, just using ONE good reason...these have Vista and 360's are Media Center Extenders (well, so was the 1st Xbox if you bought something extra). So you could set the PC to record TV shows, then stream them into another room on the 360.
you could just buy an uber cheap second PC to do that. And also use it for a download center.Yeah, you could. But they aren't giving you a 2nd PC free. They are giving you an Elite! I see them as a good match, personally.
Coming from a hermit "WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY" :lol:
seriously you can get a better case, internal components, screen and 360 and ps3 for less than that.
what else will they do to push more consoles....cerial box give aways..stereointegrityWith this coupon off of Corn Pops, get 5 dollars off your next purchase of an Xbox 360 console!
[QUOTE="Tjeremiah1988"]lol, wut? I really dont see how this is a good thing. spinecaton
You see it as a bad thing then? Please explain.
You see the prices of the PC's you have to buy? You get get a PC with just as good specs, a 360 and a PS3 and probably still have money left over for the same price as the cheapest one...

why not *just* buy a computer if you've got that sort of cash?but why *just* buy a computer for that price when you can get a 360 for the same price? its common sense, use it!
As a media center, a PC is more useful than a 360. Even a crappy one.but why *just* buy a computer for that price when you can get a 360 for the same price? its common sense, use it!

[QUOTE="AltAcct"]That's just silly :lol: They both play the same games.... That's a pretty sweet computer, though. That could play anything.Toriko42XPS's suck, my computer is a lot better and a lot cheaper That wasn't exactly the point.
I propose that we don't include these bundled Xbox 360 Elite consoles in the overall Xbox 360 sales.Hexagon_777How could we possibly differentiate? NPD won't, that's for sure.

Dude, why are you getting a dell? You couldn't pay me to get an XPS PC.VandalvideoVv, I'm not lol just posted the news bite but I would like to know your thoughts on getting a sweet laptop for gaming.
I just can't get myself to buy another desk top.
Could be very interested in a very sweet portable that I could also use for gaming.:)
Obviously, not a Dell or for that matter, any other overly priced gaming rig.

Laptops are naturally inferior when it comes to gaming, but they have their own advantages. Laptops are great for portability and are even better for lans. If you have a decent laptop you're not as restricted in movement as you may be with a desktop. (Even though there are portabl MICRO ATX cases out there). Laptops are prone to getting really hot when you're gaming on them, so you have to be careful about the playtime. Not only that , but the battery life can be a bit iffy. Some gaming PCs only get about 3-4 hours of battery life all things considered. Maybe less. Gaming laptops have their pros and cons, but if you're looking for a portable gaming device with the power of a computer with a few drawbacks then I would recommend going for it.[QUOTE="SecretPolice"]Vv, I'm not lol just posted the news bite but I would like to know your thoughts on getting a sweet laptop for gaming.[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"]Dude, why are you getting a dell?
