Save the God talk for church.  We're killing zombies and other people here!!!!! My Xbox works fine, and I never have had a reason to think otherwise.  I smell a PS3 lover....

Yeah, EB or Gamestop are going to have to have trade in deals if they want to sell this thing. Like maybe trade in your console and 5 xbox 360 games for an elite......I dont know if I see this happening but it would be smart on there part.Metroidmaniac88

 There's no way you can trade in your system and 5 games and expect to get a new system free.  You'll be lucky to not have to pay more than $150 total for the Elite after the trade in.  As for the Elite, I like the HDMI feature but honestly the picture I get right now is fine.  You may be nitpicking if you decide to spend more money just for that feature.  I will probably upgrade the Hard Drive since it seems relatively easy to transfer info from one HD to another.  It looks like moving your Live information from system to system mat be harder, from what Gamespot says.  My Xbox hasn't given me any problems and I see no reason to buy another one now.  Why not wait until they come out with a more streamlined version of the Elite?  Or wait a year or so and an entirely new Xbox may be designed.

I got mine in April '06.  Only a couple of freezeups (only on Oblivion though); nothing bad since.  I think Microsoft has been pretty good about working out the bugs on the consoles.  I waited a few months when I got the original Xbox too and that one kicked ass.  Perhaps it's just a case of bad luck.  That being said, I wish I'd gotten an extended warranty of some sort.  To have it break and have to get a new one would not be good.

My wireless has never given me a problem.  $99 bucks isn't too much, considering it's one less wire running along the floor.

I am dying for "The Big Three" horror games (Alan Wake, RE5 and Alone in the Dark) to come out.  I love all sorts of games but those are the ones I really get into.  Nothing better than playing them late at night with the lights out, surround sound on, and the hair on the back of your neck standing up.  All from a game!  Gotta love it!

I just moved and am trying to get back onto Live.  My router is working fine, but my 360 Wireless device won't connect.  The red light in the back is on.  My Xbox is no more than 6 ft away from my router, so I have no clue why it isn't working.  Anyone have any tips?  I'd hate to have to be on the phone w/ Microsoft for 3 hours trying to fix this problem.  Thanks.

That sounds great.  I'm a 32 year old gamer and I hate hearing little babies try and talk like grownups.  I would like to play with people who just want to have fun and not turn a game into an insult-fest.  Sign me up.  Maybe we can call it GrumpyOldGamers, or GOG for short.

    Well she continued to text me and was all pissy about how i wouldn't respond.. I was playing battlefield modern combat trying to dodge freaking laser tags and im getting IMs every 6 seconds.. it just couldn't continue that way.  Then She'd call and Im obviously listening to the people in my headset so i dont get sniped and crap so i had to tell her to be respectful then she hung up.  I deleted her off my myspace and everything shes gone from my life thankfully.


PS I unlocked the kill 10 enimies with the heli after i signed off AIM RonMaverick804

Maybe she was a fatty.  If she was, then game on.
