If you don't have a 360, for the love of god why haven't you gotten one yet?

The system (arcade) is only 200 bucks. 200! That's just the cost of three new games.The Xbox Live community is just so awesome. Plus everything with Xbox 360 is just integrated so well and there's a 3 year warranty on the system for goodness sake. Why haven't some of you jumped inyet. I'm sure there are some exclusives on the system that suitsyour fancy.

I dont have one because i dont want one.

My biggest reason is that is money I could spend on PC parts or PC games.

I'd like one, but funds are tight.

I don't have enough money to cover the games that I want, let alone the consoles.

Because people don't want one, don't like it, or are satisfied with their consoles that they already have.

I am going to buy a new PC within a year, and the games I want to play most like Mass Effect and Alan Wake are better on the PC.

Because E-74 and RROD make it a broken piece of fail with fail fries on the side with good games.

Now is probably the worst time to buy one...

RROD is still a significant problem, and now it even has a new name.

There also hasn't been a big exclusive announcement in a while... seriously.

Well lets see...

The arcade system is crap, it comes with like a 256MB hard drive and a controller.

Second of all, its a defective, Under developed, way to early released system, much like Microsoft's fantastic Zune

Third of all, just a little problem called the RROD.

But considering this, why wouldn't i get one??

It has AMAZING HD DVD support and fantastic Non Wireless internet, i mean, there's really no competition, is there?

YES THERE IS. Its called the PS3 and it OWNS. Don't come at me with stupid figures about how it sells more. That proves nothing. Its half the price and its been out for around a year more, OF COURSE its going to sell more units.

It has a 3 year warranty on RRoD. Regular manufacturing warranty on any other problems that should take place. I own one, but why in the heck are you so knee deep in trying to promote it's purchase? Just go play the "exclusives" as you put it.

After all that, I enjoy the system and picked up Tales of Vesperia today.

Not all of us have high paying jobs and can afford to watse 200$ on video games. Plus the game themselves are 60 bucks...

Had one, sold it. No regrets.

i was gonna get one for madden because im pretty amazing at it and have a chance to win big. i just have a feeling they will start having madden chan on ps3 soon.

Ironic how you mention the price of the Arcade for $200, then talk about the Xbox Live community...which you can't connect to at that pricetag.Zoso-8

That's why Microsoft put out the 60 GB Live Starter pack for an extra $100! LOL. You're spending $300 regardless whatever you pick the Arcade model (Which I plan to pick up because of the newer Jasper chip inside) & the Live starter pack, or the Pro model at $300.

Back on topic, I plan to pick one up very soon.

Xbox 360 is the RPG king by a million miles for me, i am a RPG gamer, i could not care less if PS3 has Blu ray, since i have one and have wacthed just 5 movies in HD, they are just not that special

PS3 has only one serious RPG and that in 2010, if 360 does not get it too btw, for me PS3 lineup means absolutly nothing, except FF13vs, which is a FF spin off too

Region protection, don't like microsoft in the console business

VXIII is as big as a contender as XIII.

Not that I'm interested in it.

money i assume? they are missing out but I dont have neough for a ps3 and Im not to pleased about that.

The price isn't an issue obviously since I got a PS3. Faulty hardware and nickel and diming for every accessory and feature, however, are major issues for me.

FF13vsis not a FF game, just a dark themed game, with 100% differnt art/****and KH gameplay, it will be a stunning game i am sure, it is just not even close to FF13 for me, which is the real FF i want to see, with all the color and art of old games, not some dark world with gay trying to lookserious heroes

While its unlikely that he's homosexual, I'm not interested in the overly trendy VXIII either - although it could turn out good. You never know. I might give it a chance.

But yeah, XIII is definitely going to be the main game for me. I'm importing it as soon as it's released in Japan.

Don't you usually have to pay to advertise on GameSpot?no_handlebars

Live fees.

Because XBOX 360 is approaching the end of its life cycle right now I believe. The first party games are of no interest in comparison to the competition. Paying for online play is not appealing when the same can be done for free on the competitions machine. I also enjoy the PS3 came wi-fi out of the box yet XBOX 360 charges $100 dollars to use this feature. The $200 model you speak of TC is not a viable option for anyone who wants to actually play online or save some games. The XBOX 360 does not have a Blu-Ray player which I personally adore on the PS3. I also see now the one XBOX 360 game I was interested in(Ninja Gaiden 2)wil now be coming to PS3 so these are few of the reasons for me.

because I have a ps3 that is supperior a wii and a gaming PC that plays everyting 360 has..... wuts the point, all its exclusives are going to ps3 like mass effect 2and dead rising....

because i already have a ps3 and like you said i could buy three new games with that money instead of buying a new console:

if i take that factor(also the one about me being immenseley satisfied with my ps3) out of it then:

• I am too afraid of errors, disc scratching rrod.
• I do not want to pay 50$ a month to play online 3rd edit: sorry $50 a year lol
• No games that interest me(exclusive wise ofcourse) ok Edit: more like there are some that are intriguing but not enough for me to actually want them.
• My friends have ps3s
• doesn't seem to have a long lifespan, especially considering how short lived the xbox was compared to the ps2 and gcn.

2nd edit: i like how you put this as an honest question, it allows fanboys to have confused emotions and perhaps grow a little, "hmm i should answer this logically and truthfully without any flaming, but so tempted to the darkside..."

I have GOOD GAMING PC and a PS3. Why would I buy something inferior in quality and games?

I don't have one and I just spent $300 dollars on a . . . . Brand New Gamecube, 4 wavebirds, and like 16 games. I had a 360 before and it broke down and Microsoft treated me horribly so I sold it (when I got a repaired one back after a big ordeal). Anyways, there really are only 2 games that are 360 "console" exclusives that I really want to play (Mass Effect & Fable 2), I'll get a 360 after this gen is about to be done and I can get one with a hard-drive for $150 or less.
