I've had one since release day, and here's my suggestions:
- if you don't have a high definition TV, I suggest you just don't bother since it looks not all that much better in standard resolution. Buy a nice TV and wait for the 360 to come down in price
- the games are no good and are all available on other consoles, except Perfect Dark Zero and Project Gotham, and neither one of those games is worth the $50 for the game and $400 for the console. Wait for a good game and wait for the 360 to come down in price.
but on the plus side, Perfect Dark Zero in 1080i looks AMAZING like ASTOUNDING UNREAL you could mistake the environments in some places for CG right out of Final Fantasy: Advent Children, but the actual characters running around in that game world look stupid and not good at all (no where near as good as even Quake 3) and the aiming is sluggish and unresponsive and you can't even jump. This game is basically the same Perfect Dark that was on N64 with a fresh coat of paint.
But if you really like some Xbox games, you can play those in 720p now... not all of them work, but they actually look amazing. Halo 2 actually looks mindblowing on the 360.

i also have the 360, while the graphics are great, it's been a while since i've touched it. Graphics just don't make up for great gameplay. I'm really excited about nintendo's revolution tho, i love those "kiddie" games more than any "M" rated game out there, high replay value games and always fun.

But yea, congrats on getting your 360, hope you have fun with it.

Have you seen the controller yet? I don't know how it's going to work...

Congrats... but I don't have one, and from what I've heard about them I won't either.

I'll stick to my existing systems: NES, SNES, N64, Game Cube, Sega Genesys, PS1 and PS2 (soon to have PS3), and no the PS1 is never used because of the backwards compatibility of the 2).


I like old stuff, sorry, no Atari or Intellivision... yet.

I've spent the better part of my last week glued to my SNES and NES just for the sheer fact that they are awesome!

Ive had mine since before Xmas.

I have:
Madden 06 (terrible game, got as a gift)
Tiger 06 (sub par, prefer the regular XBOX version)
Project Gotham 3 ( I love the game)
Ridge Racer 6 (I prefer the PSP version, heh)
Dead Or Alive 4 (as beautiful as it is frustrating)
Kameo (typical platformer, a lil too cute for me, also a gift)

Ive also purchased both SMASH TV & Gauntlet on XBOX Live, I love them!


PGR has 2 minigames in it, geometry wars 1 & 2 both are great titles in their own right.

I actually dont have much time to play the 360, work is a bastard.
