Bought one about 2 months ago. Its a HP Pavilion Media Center PC with a

intel quad core processor

4 gb of ram

windows vista home premium

750 gb hard drive

wireless lan,tv tuner

I like it alot. It's the best computer I have ever bought. Does everything I need it to :)

I like Gears better as well. Halo is a GREAT game and I played it since it came out and it great, I'm almost a captain on it now. The thing is Gears is much better. I dusted the old Gears disk off and played it a couple days ago and I'm hooked again. It took me like 3 days to get my skills back because I was so used to Halo. (especially the radar and using the LT button to throw grenades)

Also it's ALOT easier for a noob to kill someone in Halo than it is in Gears. In Halo if you are hurting after you just finished a battle with someone a noob can shoot you a couple of times or melee you and you are dead. In Gears you can get chainsawed but if you are bad enough to have someone repeatedly chainsaw you then you need to practice more before you complain about the game.

Plus in Halo you know you are going to die and it's gonna happen more than you want it to. In Gears there is nothing better than seeing your whole team die and you are the only one left and you proceed to kill the other team like it's nothing. I do that all the time now but it never gets old.

Halo 3 is a GREAT game and I like it alot but imho Gears is better and I can't wait for Gears Of War 2 to come out.

Rochester, NY

Gears Of War easily. I have played some of the top ranked people in the world on that game and have done really good. I am fortunate enough to have a bunch of people that I regularly play with that are really good so I'm always at my best. I haven't played Gears in like two weeks though because of Halo 3. It's gonna take a week for me to get my skills back on Gears.

I'm not great at Halo but I'm getting better. I'm almost a captain now. Halo is the first game where playing ranked matches matter to me. In Gears I didn't play ranked much.

I play xbox 360 online alot every day and will some more when my 360 comes back from repairs.

I work out just about every day though whether it be at gym or just doing things at home. I go to the gym and bench-press, leg-press and even though I don't like doing it much I do a little cardio. I like to bench-press the most though. If I don't go to the gym I make sure I do push-ups and crunches and other things. I have bulked up quite a bit and I have pretty big arms. Matter of fact I think my gamerpic on xbox live is just me showing my muscles lol. I need to get a weight set for home though cause sometimes I get too lazy. I'm a young guy still in high school but I love to play xbox live all the time but i work out some too.

I'm left handed

I always keep it on the left side

putting my headset on the right side feels weird

I was wondering this too. They recieved my console on the 6th and I would like to know.

I called the support number 1-800-4myxbox and I asked them about it and they had no idea what I was talking about. They should make it a requirement that the people that work for support keep up with the latest news. Even the supervisor had no idea. I hope I get a "new" one.

By the way about how long does it take to get my 360 back once they recieve it?
