I got mine the week of launch. My cousin was a Gamestop manager at the time and stated that 2 people canceled pre orders and asked if I wanted them. My friend got one and I got the other.

Hah. I'd been to visit my brother for the first time in a couple of years and at 19 I was shocked to see he had the next gen console fired up and online. Two years later when I was twenty one we moved into an apartment together and we got me my first 360- Army of Two, L4D, Mercenaries 2, Crackdown- some of my earliest 360 games.

The 360 is simply a legendary console, its the ps2 of last generation, and the n64 of the generation before that.

didn't have an xbox til 2009, and even then it wasn't mine. fiance and i moved in together and she had a 360. i bought a few games for it (mw2, oblivion, bioshock) and got pretty hooked. dvd drive went out in the xbox and i took that opportunity to buy the 360 slim w/kinect (useless peripheral so far). now i'm playing reach, forza 3, gears 2 and have gears 3, mw3, battlefield 3 and halo: cea all reserved. loving my xbox!

i got mine as a christmas present from my parents on 2008.

i absolutely love it. they got me the arcade, then on my birthday i got a 60gb hdd. ive had the same console ever since.

only red ringed once. i didnt have the cord all the way plugged in and i guess that caused it to red ring. i checked the cords and touched the power cord and heard a "click". then tried to use my 360 and it worked like a charm.

still works to this day and i still play it all the time. i kinda baby my 360 and our games. its in a gaming tower with ample breathing room. i dont let my sister take it to her room as there is no protection for it, and my 2 year old niece also sleeps in there, and she has a bad habit of leaving consoles on and then walking away forgetting about them. so i only let the 360 go to two places: the gaming tower in the family room, or my room.

without a doubt though, the 360 is my favorite console out of all my other consoles.(NES, SNES, Gamecube, N64, PS2, XBOX, PS3, Wii)

ive spent more hours on my 360 than all my other consoles combined, hell half of my 360 playing time comes from Left 4 Dead 2 with 421 hours logged.

its just the perfect console imo and i love the controller design.

Purchased it on launch day at midnight. I was the last person to get one. I was a freshmen in college, so as you can imagine I had almost no money. I basically spent every dollar I had to my name to get that console. Best money I ever spent...I didn't eat much for the rest of the semester, but it was totally worth it.

I got my first 360 on launch day. I picked up Perfect Dark Zero, and I thought it was just O.K...I wasn't addicted to my 360 until I played Oblivion. I'm on my 2nd 360, and I still enjoy it. I don't love it, because it's not a perfect system...but it's a good one.

Lol, My Obtaining of this Holy Grail of the gaming world (hahaha xD couldn't resist) is a bit more recent. Try 2 1/2 to 3 weeks ago. I went to gamestop and thought about it all. I had the money to buy one, and i would have enough left over to purchase 3 months of X-Box Live (Gold) and A Game or Two.. I bought the Gears of War Triple Pack with my Brand New X-Box....OMG, i'm loving it so much and Gears has to be my favorite game like ever. And i couldn't have gotten one at a better time cause a bunch of amazing looking games are coming out. I definitely can't wait for that. xD

I remember it took forever for stores too keep them in stock. I didn't actually get to buy one until 2/10/06. I went to GameCrazy (when they were still around) and they had 4 systems for sale. Every store up to that point basically told me that the systems sometimes did even make it to the retail floor, people where already waiting to buy them the day they were delivered. Crazy! I do remember playing CoD2 for the first time and being completely amazed by it, even though the MP was completely broken until the first patch was released. My wife bought me Condemned as a Valentines Day gift a few days after I bought my X360 and I absolutely loved that game! Though it was PGR3, with the in-car view, that sold me on the X360. ::sigh:: Those were good times indeed.

You moved into an apartment with your brother? Could be awkward.

I got mine when I was in 8th grade, May of 2006. I believe my first games were Call of Duty 2, King Kong and Oblivion. There's a lot of good memories and if I could go back in time I think I'd choose to pour as much time into my Xbox as I did all over again.

I bought mine on launch (06) with King Kong and Perfect Dark (Bundle had them with it.) I wanted Condemned and Perfect Dark so i completed King Kong in like 4 hours and traded it the next day for Condemned! :) I got alot of use out of the console so it was worth the money but a year or two into the PS3's life it was over for my 360... :(
