I got it:

Xbox X3

Times 3, XXX, 3, not 720, not 1080, not Xbox 3 ....

It's got it all.

X3

Don't bump your topics, the mods frown upon it.

"What's your biggest recent social failure?"

Alas, I don't have one because I don't have a social life anymore. I work 40+ hours a week and have a serious GF. The most I ever socialize is a double-date once every few weeks.

Hey, wait ... maybe that IS my socia failure!?!

AHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA god I'm pathetic.

I fell asleep at a fraternity house couch with my shoes on. Sajedene

If your a girl (I am assuming) and gave them something to look at while you slept I am sure they didn't mind ...

I think he just means that it's Hitler's birthday and we should be giddy with the irony that he's DEAD.

At least that's how I read it.

Look to letters instead of numbers..

I would definitly buy the Ybox, after that comes the Ybox 360

Then just wait till we get the Zbox

Lol ...

What's wrong with the 720? I think it sounds cool, and it would def appeal to the whole extreme sports crowd. How about the Xcube? Too much like the GameCube I know (and it's already a BOX), but hey, againit sounds cool.

By XBL games I assume you mean Xbox Live Arcade games, correct? One, if you have a hard drive with your new console you can just transfer the data, so you wouldn't have to re-download them. Second, regardless if you have a new HD or not you want to do a license transfer on Xbox.com, that way you could redownload them for free AND you can play them on any profile on your console, not just the one you bought the content on.

Halo 3. The story is ony compatible with people who've played the first 2, The controls feel a bit iffy and the fan base is by far the worst I've seen for a 360 game.

Agreed. Bunch of 10-year-old, bad-reviewing, trash-talking, racial-slurring, CHEATING fanboys.

I am not flaming, this is my opinion. If you play halo but are NOT the above I am not refering to you.

Since it's all controlled by Microsoft, they're focused on the maximum amount of profit they can garner, obviously. And, to be honest, the price on much of the DLC is quite cheap, provided you have a half-decent income.

And don't live on your own paying bills that are WAYYY more important than XBLA or DLC.

And your not a kid working a part-time minimum wage job (or not working period).

It CAN be expensive, especially over time, adding it all up.

There was a topic about just that and people admitted spending HUNDREDS of dollars inXBL Marketplace.

If you can't afford the occasional DLC-fee then you really shouldn't be buying the sixty dollar 360 game in the first place. If you're a child, then you must rely on the generosity of your parents, obviously, and that's not Microsoft's fault. Over time, yes, it does add up, depending on how often you make purchases over XBL, but that's just basic economics.

I think "Duh" comes to mind. If you can't afford something you shouldn't buy it, and that includes financing something. That's not what I was saying. I never said it was Microsoft's fault that kids might not have an income, but doesn't Microsft want their money as well? Wouldn't making some of their content more accessable to more people be a smart business decision? I think they would make MORE money (hence the Wal-Mart analogy).
