Bought a Xbox 360 lastnight...
« on: December 02, 2006, 10:24:17 PM »
...along with Call Of Duty 3.  Played it all night long.  Have to say the graphics are much better than I thought, esp. on my HDTV.  Still have to get use to the controller but at least it's wireless and can play from the far off comfort of my...gaming chair!! Hehehe.

Anyone else in here a 360 user?

I think I'm gonna buy either the 360 or the PS3 in the next month or two.

I won't be playing Medal Of Honor though - cause I play it on my PC and the mouse control is so much better than the control stick - when they implement a mouse to the XBox - I'll be there :)

PS3 vs XBOX 360.

Today's 5th generation console war will be decided by games.  Who ever makes THE BEST games for that console wins:aok



(and XBOX 360 is currently leading in the games and online department:aok)

XBOX 360 is good but i wonder why the Japanese shunned the 360 when it was released last year...:noid

I think my wife may have gotten me a Wii for christmas.  I've got my fingers crossed!  I'm not a real console gamer, but something about the Wii fascinates me.

I felt the same way.  I bought a xbox 4 years ago and was under-whelmed.  I don't game hardly at all on my PC anymore and I wanted something to take advantage of my tv and give me something to do on the nights that I am off.  So far I am very satisfied with it, but then it's only been 1 day.

I refuse to buy anything Sony.  I know xbox is micro$oft but I had to pick the lesser of two evils.  Plus, the whole HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray thing.  

PS-I had to go hand-to-hand with a Jerry lastnight.  Kinda freaked me out.  I found myself yelling back at him, "I'm a juden!  A juden, mother****er!!!" and smacked him across in the jaw with the butt of my M1 Garand, blood went everywhere.  It was teh kewl.

I bought Xbox 360 a couple months ago.  I am quiet pleased with it.  I played Call of Duty 3 earlier this week.  I beat it in 7 days.  The game got kinda stale after a while.

DO NOT BUY Madden 07 or SuperMan they both suck.

But i hear Rainbow Six Vegas is the game to get along with Gears of War.

To me it's not how fast I can beat it but how the experience is.  Compared to MoH on xbox CoD is unbeatable.  But then Brothers In Arms looks pretty cool too.

I was browsing thru Best Buy tonight and got to try a PS3 with some truck racing game.  I have to say, I was pretty impressed how nice the graphics looks.  After playing the game twice, my hands were killing me  LOL  Im just not used to those tiny game pads.

My son tells me Gears of War is THE game to have for the 360.

Ahhh, yes, that's the game Gunslinger posted about a couple weeks ago.  I must go check it out.

Gears of War kicks prettythang!

I am a 360 user and also will have a Wii just for grins.  That controller on the Wii is simply the best game controller for a console I have every used.  Supposedly you will be able to stiff arm someone on Madden just by moving your hand with the "nunchuck" controller in it.

For the 360 most of the games we have are sports games and it will be the same thing for the Wii when we get it.

Pick up Rainbow Six: Vegas and Gears of War. Both have excellent single and multiplayer games. The graphics on GoW is the best I've seen of any game on any platform. The 360 has great online potential with the Xbox Live. Being able to have friends lists and to be able to chat with them over vox in or out of games is a nice feature.
