I'm a bit mixed up right now... I wanna get this extra game... I got enough for Perfect Dark Zero and DOA 4... with like almost $100 dollars left in hand... how do I solve THIS Math Problem...?!
What about you guys...?
Queen Helena - October 25, 2005 02:57 PM (GMT)
I'm not gonna buy it until it's cheaper, I never buy a game console right away, too expansive, not to mention that you have to buy a new one every 5 years or so, so I'm just gonna wait a while
Mr.Cruncher - October 25, 2005 03:20 PM (GMT)
and miss out on all of that fun...?! Sure cheaper is better... but enjoying a new phenomenon (assuming I spelled that wrong) with your online friends is priceless... You don't wanna miss out on all of the goodies... do you...?
Oh yeah... This whole poll thingy got fricked up... so i'm trying to get help from the higher beings of this forum to fix the problem... so don't bother scolding because I mis-used the poll feature... just let the problem solve first...

i almost have enough for the game. my dad's going to get me the 360 for Christmas while i buy DOA4 with my money, then after that, i'll be broke T_T
Dark Rabbit 87 - October 26, 2005 02:59 AM (GMT)
I'm ready for the 360 but for DOA 4, that might wait because my money is going towards Forza Motorsport 2.
Mills McDougle - October 26, 2005 11:57 AM (GMT)
Not until Feb-Mar for me.
Midô Ban - October 26, 2005 04:00 PM (GMT)
Xmas for me, with DOA4 and some controllers to play with my friends :D .

well, it's not like the online experience is going to dry up and die before the first price drop comes. if anything, it'll be more diverse the longer you wait to join up.
and let's not forget that launch-era systems are more likely to have hardware problems than machines made later on...
so...let's weigh the options here:
-pay out $400+ dollars for a system that is more likely to have hardward problems and won't come with any console-specific games, OR
-wait awhile to get a cheaper system that will most likely come bundled with a popular title, comes with all the other bells & whistles that came with the launch system, and is probably more stable.
so yeah. i don't think i'm missing out on too much. ;)

I'm ready since I'm not buying it b/c my father is :dancebaby:
Xabinator - October 27, 2005 01:08 AM (GMT)
I have close to $0.00... Plus my parents probably won't buy me an Xbox 360 or DOA4 because they think that it takes away from my studies. I'm at a loss. :pinch:
Engraver - October 27, 2005 12:57 PM (GMT)
I can get it in my dreams maybe.... :(

Heh... suit yourself, friend. :bow:
Of course... if you are an impatient gamer like myself... then you will surely have a heck of a time trying to pass time just for a price drop... so it's people like me who make the companies rich because we can't keep our excitement under wraps... esspecially when you've got the cash in your pocket and it's standing over you from the shelf behind the counter (That which you can't get to) ... taunting your face... just provoking you to give up all your green only for a piece of equipment that can only satisfy you for a moment's time... long enough for them to reveal the next installment and take even more of your hard earned greeny greens... and half of that came from the brains of my fingers as they were just typing... and typing... *DONE*

no way I can afford the threesixty at launch date.
But it's questionable if it's smart buying the threesixty for the launch price only to play DoA4 anyway. Perfect Dark Zero is too ... 'untrue' to its N64 roots to be interesting for me. And apart from that there are no good launch titles, as far as I know.

*Holds 360 in palm of hand*......."To buy or not to buy, that is the question."

kenshin42 - November 24, 2005 05:34 PM (GMT)

I played CoD2 on my computer, its an awsome games :D
bsu - November 24, 2005 09:13 PM (GMT)
Got the money but I'm not sure if spending 300 on this is wise. I need more time to think. Hopefully by then, price will drop.

I think its worth it if: You have braoadband Connection, LCD Moniter, or a regualr TV, enough for game and equepment.
300 is the core price, I highyl recemend the 400 dollor one, since there will only be 2 things extra youl need to buy: Game, battery Charger

it's too bad i'm not getting the 360 until Christmas. i was planning on getting Call of Duty 2, i played the demo at Best Buy and got addicted to it. the graphics were realistic and the sound effects were amazing.

We have made a reservation of our system some months ago and the store will be specially open at midnight for the freaks (like us) to go and get their consoles.
Because, here, it will only be launched next December 2nd.
But we will have to wait for DOA4.... :hmm:
:cheers:
