Xbox 360... -
10-16-2005, 04:15 PM
Xbox 360 is going to be released on Nov 22 anyone going to get one? I gotta say the graphics are insane. right up to par with all but the most expensite PC's but with the plug and play simplicity that you will never get on a PC. its the little things that impress me though... the wireless controllers have a power button in the for the ultimate in lazyness! lol.. don't have to roll out of bed to turn on the system anymore. just grab the controller and press the green X. also lots of other features like one nice dashboard layout and the ability to play MPEG, AVI's, MP3's.. ect that are on other computers in a network through the 360 on your TV. pretty cool stuff.
I'm looking forward to Call of Duty 2, Test Drive Ultimate, mabey PGR3 and for sure Ghost Recon Warfighter looks bad ass in the video trailer I've seen. I got to have something to do over the winter because LH is going to be too far to drive during the week. 1:1.. 01 Z28 Camaro A4 Sure.. its stock. 1:8's.. K3, Inferno GT, and a straight line beater car 1:18.. RC18t Mamba and 3s lipo |

I am not getting one yet. I have been on live since 2002 ( I was a beta tester for live, I even still have the stupid T-shirt they gave me for participating). It's just to expensive and time consuming. My time playing live has dwindled from 20 hours or more a week to like 5 hours a week. They up'd the game prices they up'd the live costs. I play one game on xbox live and thats MotoGP 3. Best Motorcycle racing game there is, hell best game series on live. Now I have heard it will be released for 360 sometime in 2006, now if that happens I'll find a way to buy one.

im not gonna get one. Games cost to much for it and it doesnt really impress me from everything ive read about it and the pictures ive seen. Im gonna wait till march and get the new nintendo system. That sounds like its gonna be the sheit. You can download any previous nintendo game from the very start and play all these newer games with a lot better graphics from the previous systems.

bahhh... I can download all the old nintendo games already and play them on my computer and the Nintendo revolution controller looks like a remote control. PS3 looks pretty wicked though. the trailer for the Metal Gear Soild on the PS3 looks excelent.
I've already had the pleasure of playing a couple 360 demo games and tinkering with the system because my father engineered the playable 360 displays that were used at X05 and will be seen in the stores. He also did the Xbox display in the past and right now I have 3 xboxes and a slew of games all for free.. if I'm lucky I'll ge the same deal with the 360. We'll see what games come out for it on its release. Going from whats on the Demo disk there will be a couple racing games that I may have to pick up. 1:1.. 01 Z28 Camaro A4 Sure.. its stock. 1:8's.. K3, Inferno GT, and a straight line beater car 1:18.. RC18t Mamba and 3s lipo |

I'll probaly end up getting one but after it's been out for a few months. I mean when the release the forst xbox there was some bugs in the system, so I think I will wait like six months then grab one, besides by then it should be at least 100 bucjs cheaper.

I'll be picking up the 360 shorty after it comes out. After playing PC games for 6 years, and spending some time playing X-Box lately, I enjoy playing X-Box more. In the end, it cheaper to stick with consule units. No Upgrading vid cards every 6 months.
Thinking about picking up the HD version of 360. Any thoughts about that Six? |

Well now that I've got full permision to talk about it from my father. I've had a 360 in my posession all week long. NO problmes as of yet reading any disks I've put in the thing except once on a Mixed media disk that was rather scratched, the dashboard froze on me. I have found some problems playing the king kong demo game but thats a software problem with the king king game itself because it is a super early demo. hopfully before the release I'll get some official games for it because right now I'm stuck with the demo disk with only 3 playable demos and the rest videos. Yes it plays some old xbox games. Halo 2 and Forza both play on it. older games do not work on it though and you have to have the HD for the 360 to play the older games.
Call of Duty 2 demo on the 360 is unreal. It looks right up there with the PC version. I even got my hands on a 360 PC monitor adapter to test it on a good monitor on the highest HDTV settings. One things I gotta mention is the power adapter is a brick. literally the size of a brick measuring 10" long, 4" tall and 3" deep. my guess is the entire power supply was kept external to save weight, space, and heat from the unit and with the processor and such the power supply had to be pretty beefy. I wish I could post pics but I've been forbiden from doing it until the official release. lol.. I have a stack of 3 xboxes and the 360 on top. 1:1.. 01 Z28 Camaro A4 Sure.. its stock. 1:8's.. K3, Inferno GT, and a straight line beater car 1:18.. RC18t Mamba and 3s lipo |

It does have live but there are no games to play and I was told not to mess with it. Right now its honnestly kinda borring becuase I've mastered all 3 game demos on the demo disk... lol. I'm itching to get my hands on some real games for this.
Hasn't the sony lost some of the exclusive games anyhow? I know tomb raider and ridge racer 6 are both comming out on the 360 and used to be playstation exclusive games. Hey wait.. FF7? Final Fantasy 7? 360 is getting Final Fantasy 11 ![]() |
