Funny, I made a thread like this in the X-Box forums & got a warning for being "off-topic" because one stupid **** had to come along and **** for whatever reason. Yeah, I'm ****ing about that in your thread, because I just got done reading my "warning". Sue me.

At any rate, go ahead and buy the PSP now. Chances are that they're going to come out with a better/newer model a few months after you buy it, anyway. Until they throw in a portable jet, I would say that all the system upgrades are pointless. In a few months (even if you wait and buy the newest one) your version will be obsolete anyway.

I bought Fable II then read a thread which asked users "Fable II or Fallout 3", Fallout 3 won that battle hands down. Then, I bought the game this morning and I'm not very far. Right now, I'm at the very beginning (where you need to escape) and I already think this game is awesome which makes it one of the few games that I have liked from the beginning (I didn't even think Fable II was that awesome. I actually think the child thing kinda takes away from the story). Then, I read this thread, and I'm even more happy with my second choice (as in this is only the 2nd game I've ever bought for the 360).

Seems like a pretty good list. I own Silent Hill: Origins myself and it's a pretty solid game.

I also agree with the second guy that God of War: Chains of Olympus is a must buy. But I'd also recommend playing the first two God of Wars on Playstation if you haven't already. You don't NEED to play them to keep up with the story, but it makes the story much better.

I think it's a bad move man for a few reasons. The Wii costs more as of right now and you're also trading away more accessories than you're getting. You definitely went out of your way to purchase everthing and from what I understood about the 360 is it's probably the holiday bundle from last year with Forza 2 which isn't worth it. It came with two games and they can't be traded in so Fable 2 will have to come out of your pocket.Strife88

From my understanding, it's only the x-box arcade console that's cheaper then the Wii, which I don't think I'd go for and from my understanding, it's not the arcade console that I'm getting. I could be wrong there, but if I am, then I know that the price differences arent too far off.

Secondly, I'm almost positive that its not a "holiday bundle" mainly because I've seen the console at her last employee party.

And here is the thing about used XBOX they could RROD on you anytime.4dry4n

That's one of my main concerns, although from my understanding it's rarer then people make it out to be.

Well, I was wondering if it was a good move, thus asking for advice?

Secondly, screw the friggin' blog. I didn't join the forums to blog.

Tonight, I'm packing up my three week old Nintendo Wii with one wiimote and nunchuck, a classic controller, 4 virtual console games, Raymen Raving Rabbids 2 and Super Mario Galaxy.

Tomorrow, my boss is trading me her X-Box 360 (a little under a year old) for my Wii (haha, she wants my Wii), with two controllers and a couple games (mostly racing from what she told me, nothing I can't trade in for something better like uh, Fable 2).

I was planning on buying an X-Box 360 and my boss said she was planning on selling her xbox 360 and getting a Wii. I haven't been too impressed with the Wii. Okay, the controllers are kinda cool, but there's really nothing game-wise that interests me on the Wii. So, to me, it seems like a fair trade. I want a 360 and wouldn't miss my Wii too much, she wants a Wii and wouldn't miss her 360 too much. Then again, my system is newer then hers and there's no chance of getting the red ring of death on the Wii.

Mod edit - Sorry, but mentioning several platforms in a single thread isn't allowed in any of the platform boards, this should be in System Wars.

Impossible! I've already received more than my money's worth out of it.thebisonx

Just curious, what do you like about the Wii? So far, I'm not impressed by the games. In fact, most of the games I "own" are on the VC (they entertain me more...)

I bought a Wii. I thought it was cool because of the unique controls. Unfortunately, the best game I played for the Wii so far is Super Mario Galaxy. Otherwise, I'm not too impressed with the console.

Overrated: Brawl.

Underrated: Mario and Sonics at the Olympics.
