XBOX 360 Users, I have a question

[Spider]

Get an original Xbox and mod it and put on XBMC. Then it can do allll that shit. Can also stream videos (plays pretty much any format (X360 doesn't play divx etc)) and music over the network. And yeah the most recent version supports external harddrives (USB) as long as they are FAT32.


EDIT: And then get a Wii

This is the problem with the internet. You ask a perfectly legitimate question and you get an answer like this.

Q: I want to upgrade my computer, should I go for nVidia or ATI?

A: OMG D00D, JUST HAX UR CURRENT ONE, NEWBIE. OVER CLOCKING IS LIKE BUYIGN A NEW COMPUTERZ. LOLZ!!1

Don't get me started on Mac people. Jesus.

Now I want a xbox 360. Gah.

daemon + other yanks, how much are games etc in the us, it seems to me that every fucker out there has 20x the games and "extras" that i do, are you all just rich, or or are games etc just dirt cheap over there?

[Liquid Blue]

Games are expensive as shit- 60 bucks usually, right?

[Kontrolz]

If I can't HOOK A USB HARD DRIVE INTO THE USB PORT and SAVE AND LOAD STUFF TO AND FROM IT, that's just monopolizing and bullshitty.

Hello. DoTheFandango, meet Microsoft. Microsoft, this is DoTheFandango.

Btw, they now own your left leg, if you want to be able to walk you'll have to pay $40 every step.

Games vary in price from $40-$60, more for special edition. I just worked a lot and have a lot of money left over.

Oh, and I need my Online Co-Op play Achievements for Gears of War, so go buy it, I need to beat it as Dom.

$50-60 new. There are a surprising amount of games used and those range from $25-45 or so. I'm not sure how good ebay's prices are.

[Displaced]

Gears of War will be roughly €69.90 here when it comes out on the 17th.

whats that in buckaroonies? 88usd?

not that it really is gonna prohibit my getting the game, cause ive been waiting for it for quite some time.

[Dameon Angell]

It's roughly $59.99 for the game, $69.99 for the 'special edition' with the tin box and stuff.

[Cops]

360 is sick, i'm probably gonna stand to make double my money off a ps3 though. I sold about 10 HDD Drives today for the 360 which is going at an amazing price of $199, that is when you look at the cost of HD DVD Players. The HDD Expandable Drive also includes King Kong, which isn't great but at least they give you something to watch. This is how I'm looking at the systems.

ps3 - sell it make tons of money off nerds, hope the thing blows up when he gives me over a grand for it.
360 - I'd like one in the future.
Wii - I really want one, I was able to play with the controller and find that for the money it's a great system that will entertain me. I also think Nintendo manned up by staying out of this bitch fight between Sony and Microsoft, we don't want to buy two different HD Movie Brands. The Nintendo Rep told me that they may look at getting into HD within the next year.

[Cops]

Gears of War is currently the sickest game on the 360, PS3 can't hold a fart to the wind against this game.

[Dameon Angell]

I'm planning on picking up that HD DVD Drive soon, I especially want that remote control that comes with it $$.

[D1st0rt]

This amazing game is only $3.99

Solid Snake wishes he could do that. I think they reviewed those games in the latest EGM Mag, lol. No score, but they said it was 'interesting'.

[SEAL]

Forgive me for this stupid question, but the only game i played for the last 5 years is subspace/ continuum.

So the wii and the 360 are already out on the market for a year.
but sony, with its playstation 3, has just been released (right??).
but they announced it over a year ago, if i remember correctly.

The question: Is the PS3 a few steps ahead of wii & 360 or just very late in it's release?
