I'm now officially an owner of an Xbox 360, and a copy of Dead Rising.

Why Dead Rising?

You couldn't hold off until Halo 3 or at least get Bioshock? :|

I'v been a huge zombie obessive freak since forever, I'v wanted to try this game more than the others since it came out.


That and I needed to buy soemthing cheap until I get paid next week. My younger siblings should be home in about ten minutes- can't wait to see them freak out when they find out what I bought.

Gotcha.

What are your plans on future purchases?

Bioshock, GRAW 2, Gears Of War, Blue Dragon, Viva Pinata, Halo 3, Assasins Creed, Mass Effect, Kingdom Under Fire, and so on and so on and so on... lotta stuff will eventually be bought.

If you dont like really good looking games andyou like doing nothing but beating Bowser and Ganon and saving princeses Zelda and Toadstull than for all means than yeah all you need is a Wii. But if you want a variety of games and you are older than 10 years old you might want to fork up the extra $100 bucks for the 360.

I'd say get a X360 later (until they get the 65 chip) because the RROD is such a pain. If you buy one right now more than likely you'll not get the HDMI one that has an extra headsink (which is suppose to make it harder to get the RROD but who knows) but the regular old one with no HDMI and 100% chance of getting RROD in the future.
       Get wii games now, wait until X360 problems are solved then get the X360.

good job man! im proud of you. enjoy the true next gen console.

when you go get it (i prefer getting an elite) if not try to get a 360 with HDMI in the back because some of the earlier consoles dont (like mine :() so just incase you have an HD or plan on getting one you can get the best possible hook up possiable with the HDMI hook ups.

HEY CONGRATULATIONS! Dead Rising is AWESOME but a bit hard and frustrating at first. Give it some time and REALLY get a grasp on understanding the game and you'll love it. Also try not to get addicted to those achievements ;)

I already went and got it, got the pro edition with the HD and what not. The Elite is sexy but I was running thin on my spending limit as it was.

I hope not. Though I'v already set up an elaborate and technologically advanced cooling mechanism for my 360 involving two game informer magazines and a air vent.

Well my 2nd xbox got RROD. And do you remember the 33% failure rate. There is no way that they produced that much systems that are faulty. So it has to be a design flaw. This is why new X360's come with the extra heatsinks. The Xboxes according to people why it happens is that the systems are getting to Hot and the GPU gets disconnected (Solder breaking). Why do you think they did the semi-recall (3 year warrenty for RROD). So every Xbox (Not Sure though about Elite and HDMI Prem is really prone to it because of the extra heatsink) is prone to the RROD. It's just a matter of time for people who did not get the RROD to wake up one day turn on their X360's and see three red lights.
I do hope you guys with HDMI X360 don't have to go through RROD.Heres some links: This one explains that all X360's are prone to the problemhttp://www.xboxnerds.com/Xbox-360/news/-all-xbox-360s-have-design-flawhttp://www.crn.com.au/News/55747,microsoft-facing-us115bn-xbox-360-repair-bill.aspxThis one explains why 3 Red lights happenhttp://www.gwn.com/news/story.php/id/13140/Xbox_360_Failures_Explained.html

Wii has no good games.

Besides Metroid, Zelda and Mario what games do they have? And I'm talking about real games not a bunch of mini game crap. And no rehashes!

I think I might be better off selling my XBOX for like 250-300 on ebay and then just buy an elite because I really want HDMI anyway because i just bought a 1080p tv for my room.

I do hope you guys with HDMI X360 don't have to go through RROD.

hey dude when you sold your xbox were you able to recover your gamertag with all your saved games and gamerscore points? that would suck if you couldnt.

Who cares that Bioshock is on the PC too it is still on XBOX and not on Wii and that still makes XBOX that much better than the Wii.

Well, personally, I'd get the 360 and a game now. I have both and at the time being I play my 360 FAR more than I do my Wii. The 360 simply has a much better game library right now (by default, I know) and I'm extremely excited about what's to come (beyond Halo 3).

But then again, that could just be my personal tastes talking. If you think the 360 is going to be a good value for you, then buy it, if not then don't.

A 360 and Halo 3 along with the Wii; you're set untill M.E. arrives.

You simply cant do better !

Jump In. :)

SecretPolice

I'm sorry, but as much as I'm looking forward to M.E., Halo3 is going to last me for at least 3 years seeing how Halo2 has pretty much done so. M.E. will be a great game, but not enough to take me away from Halo3 online.

No way friend, you took me wrong on that one.

I too will be playing Halo 3 for years I just meant to imply that with those two games he was set but as I re-read it -my bad as I stated it poorly. :(
