It still red dots, you can't deny it.

EDIT: Not to mention the fact IT TURNS OFF, what the hell Microsoft, fix the god damn problem rather then doing quick fixes and causing gamers rage and anger, loving had heating problems in NES/SNES age and Microsoft has brought back heating problems.

Just because it doesn't get Red Rings doesn't mean it doesn't break.
Hurr.

PS3 community is like ROBLOX.
You are loving stupid, you can't even generalize communities as large as the Xbox's and PS3's, there are a few million players each.

PC for life.
And you're acting like PCs don't ever fail. PCs aren't as accessible or affordable as consoles, all 3 of the major gaming platforms are good in their own ways. PC is not if you're tight on money.

Alright!

You're getting an OVERHYPED game console with 2 OVERHYPED games.


Still, just do what you want.

Shut the forget up.

And there are 8 million ROBLOX players.

How is this relevant again?

Well, my bro is planning on trading in a couple Wii/Ps2/DS games and his DS to got a Xbox 360 Elite, with Forza 3 and a Halo game. We still might get a slim though

Also, I agreee with packer on the "Turning Off" thing. It's gonna suck when you get something like a really hard acheivement and then it shuts off.


And there are 8 million ROBLOX players.
...
Roblox is free. Anyone with internet access can make an account.
Xbox and PS3 users have to pay a few hundred dollars for the console.
Do the math.

Save up for both the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Chasey's right. You can't hold ONE thing above all else because they all have upsides and downsides that are all based solely on the perspective of a person.

A family buys a wii because it's gimmicky, makes them move around, is marketed toward them, and isn't expensive. More like a used Minivan.

Gamers buy a 360 or PS3 for multiple reasons; The games, the low maintenance, the cheaper pricing compared to PC, the simplicity, etc. This is the common person who buys an Impala or a Cobalt because it's a simple car, and gets them from A to B, you don't need to know much about a car to drive it.

Hardcore gamers or PC users have a PC and invest in a PC because they're like mechanics. They have the biggest muscle car because they pour their money into upgrading and changing parts to make it better, and they can take it out and hit 120 MPH in 20 seconds, at the expense of taking the chance that it might break down or they might crash, which means they need to know how to maintain and fix it. The problem is packer is picking on the 360 because it has a chance of breaking down, but he forgets that you can do the same with a PC. BSOD, static discharge on the motherboard, dust clogs, fan breaks, data corruption, blah blah blah. I agree that a console shouldn't break down, but the reality is that a 360 is very much like a PC in its construction and operation, you can actually fix most errors, including RROD by modifying the hardware, and Microsoft will fix RROD free anyway.

AND FINALLY: You CANNOT GENERALIZE AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY BASED SOLELY ON THE ACTIONS OF A FEW. "lol 360 is all kiddies" or "ps3 users r cigarettes" is the equivalent to saying all Muslims are terrorists and all Catholics sodomize children, or all white people want a master race and all black people will stab you and take your money. Shut the forget up.

Explain

BREAKING NINJA EDIT:
Well, My mom suprized us with a trip to the movies today, and my brother decided to get it today. He plans on getting a regular one with a wireless controler and a couple games.
There is still a chance of getting the Elite if he has enough.

Explain
3 Years extended warranty with Microsoft. If your xbox RRoD's then you send it in and they repair it free of charge.
