Hey guys....I have finally mustered up the courage to purchase a 360 and I have a question...

Are the memory units necessary to play games???

I only played about 5 min of the demo and quit after getting barraged by dinosaurs out of nowhere.

Aside from that, the only thing I found annoying in the first 5 minutes is how the character moves. When you stop and start again, you start slow and then speed up. I have never played a game that did this and it is just purely annoying.

I have been reading a lot about how Sony's achievement system will go far beyond what the 360's system is like and I got to thinking....

"What if the achievement points can be used as a sort of currency for PSN or for purchasing game related characters, weapons, clothing, etc.?"

For instance, say you played MGS4 and got every last achievement and then you could use those achievements to purchase MGS related stuff on the PSN or within the game like different characters, weapons, skins, vehicles, etc.

Your thoughts?

Yeah...just wait until you finish the game then it will all be explained. It will all make sense then.

it all depends on what your tastes are...

I personally like the more linear but action packed games and I think the sandbox type games are TOO open to freedom that you can get lost and not know what to do.

I have played and finished Uncharted and I LOVE it....I am playing through a second time to get all the rewards and whatnot.

I also played AC for about an hour and after that I lost interest.

I guess it all just depends on what you like. If you like GTA go for AC but if you like games like God of War, then go for Uncharted.

Another thing I forgot to mention was that I actually had to install the xbox 360 drivers to get the analog sticks to function......hopefully that helps. Just toy around with it because sometimes it doesnt work as planned for me either.

Yes you will have to buy new controllers....there ARE ps2 to usb connectors but they work HORRIBLY with the guitar hero controllers. If he doesnt want to shell out the extra money for the ps3 version, just buy the ps2 version, same game.

Hey guys....I have been a LONG time Sony supporter and I recently came across about $500 to spend and I was contemplating getting a 360...I just really want to know that if I do buy a 360 that it will be justified by all means.

So....what 360 bundle do you guys think I should get and what game(s)???
