if you like cars then get forza and PGR, Alan Wake is comming up, look at Rare's games, really overlooked, Fable , Tales of Vesperia, and Lost Odyssey. Gears is very good as well. feel free to add me, jonny N0B0DY (the O's are zero's) that is if you get a 360.

In my opinion, you shouldn't buy an XBOX 360 until it gets to $99.

I have the feeling it will do so within a year because last Chrismas Walmart had that special.

Also, I don't think XBOX 360 is worth anymore than that considering its the most defective prone console in the history of video gaming.

I'ts sad, but it's true.

you can get an arcade for about 160 now. Purchase a USB sstorage unit for 20.00 and you've got a system thats hard to beat for the money.

ya brah too bad the new arcade units have jasper chips and a new disk drive that makes your arguement valid maybe in 2008. (and i currently have a zephyr model 20 gig pro, basically the highest prone model there is for RROD. and its going on 2.5 years, sooooo is my console some miracle of nature??)

i have both systems, but much more invested in the xbox. both systems are good, but i still feel you can make the arguement you only need 1.

for xbox:

alan wake

gears series

mass effect series

halo series

pc gamers, nobody cares that most of those games are on PC. she's asking about buying an xbox not a PC.

all those other subpar exclusives mentioned above.

san andreas is on xbla, you dont need to buy the hardcopy.

its totally worth it. xbl with friends is a lot better than psn with friends. plus more people with mics in games.

Having these JASPER chipsets means little, jlevin860. Jaser has only been out for a year, so we don't know if XBOX 360's are fixed or relaiable. I mean, so what if Microsoft can keep XBOX 360's from breaking for a year....maybe even 2, but again, So what? A whole year of "fixed" qualifies as fixed in terms of "industry standards", but that doesn't translate into RELIABLE for Consumer standards, nor mine. Like I said...XBOX's are barely worth the plastic that encases them....$99 is all I'm willing to pay for that piece of junk....seriously.

Also, XBOX 360's highest rated exclusive isn't "for" XBOX only....which helps solidify XBOX 360 as a more generic console. it has a few exclusive AAA titles franchises...unfortunately...too few.

Finally, as I've personally witnessed by all the bad behavior, racism, cursing and name calling......XBOX LIVE serves as a great test case for mics being overrated.

When my xbox broke from RROD i wasn't under warranty but they still let me send it in for free and I got it back in two weeks. Haven't had problems since then, which was two years ago.

She said that she didn't have a gaming PC, which means all the games 360 shares with PC (like L4D which kicks mega-ass) are exclusive.

All onlines have whiney kids, 360 doesn't have any more than PC or PS3. And finding cool people to play with on any of the consoles is pretty easy.

Make sure you don't get an arcade. You need to have a 360 with a hard drive to have backwards compatability. Also you will want to install games, the fans and disc tray are really loud on some games if you dont install.

Seriesly, if you want to get the best deal XBox 360 then get the 360 Elite bundled with Forza 3 and Halo ODST. You WOULD need that warranty.

I got mine for Mass Effect...but the sad thing is I didn't really enjoy it. Haven't played it since...although Alan Wake may change that.

Try Fable, GeoW, Forza 3, Crackdown, Dead Rising, Lost Odyssey (if your into JRPGS). You could also try Mass Effect, but don't set your hope too high.

Hey? GTA SA is 360 exclusive? Or did you mean Episodes from Liberty Cities? Anyway, popular 360 exclusives:

  • Gears of War series
  • Forza series
  • Project Gotham Racing series
  • Viva Pinata
  • Lost Odyssey
  • etc

Upcoming:

  • Alan Wake
  • Crackdown 2
  • Project Natal
  • etc

I recommend you look at the multiplat, 360 exclusives really aren't the main strengh of the console.

Multiplat:

  • L4D2
  • Bioshock series
  • Splinter Cell Conviction
  • Mass Effect
  • Bayonetta
  • Rock Band
  • Oblivion
  • Tales of Vesperia
  • Just Cause 2
  • Saints Row 2
  • etc etc etc

Episodes is not exclusive either

Don't forget to purchase a nice hammer to smash it with. . . and maybe some protective goggles so as to protect your eyes from stray pieces.

forza420

why smash it ...when you can blend it! :)

Because it's more fun with a hammer. 8)

Great choice, you get it's exclusives, it's 360/PC games, and 360/PS3 games that are mainly better on 360, like Bayonetta for example. I approve of this thread.
