Okay guys and gals, whomever has a 360, hit me up, I finally got mine today. Best Buy had 220 of them today for a "Re Release" party or some such shit.

I'd like to mention that the wireless adapter works perfectly, and so does the streaming music from the PC.

I've downloaded a few movie trailers, and a bunch of game demos.

WOW. Battlefield 2 MC on it looks better than on the PC when I saw it last week. I almost shat myself.


Also, if you want your gamertag in your sig, just follow this link.

Very nice...

I played a bit of 360 the other day. NFL sucked. and NFS sucked aswell.

Some of the games microsoft rushed, and you can definetly tell.

When a reciever runs through a goal post and off the field for a 500$ Unit. At least debug some games first.

I'm sure as new games come out, it will be nicely done. The graphics were a big improvement from Xbox. Make sure to play 360 on HDTV. It looks 10x better!

Sports games suck as it is. NFS? Need for Speed Most Wanted? That game is bad ass. I won't buy it, but it looks great.

MS didn't make either of those.

You get the great Electronic Arts conglomerate to thank for that.

The thing that's funny is that I have BF2:MC for my Xbox, have played it to HELL and back on the same TV, same Composite Connections that I played the BF2:MC demo for the 360 on.

The difference is staggering.

Hopefully I can get a HDTV in about 2 months.

HDTV adds a nice touch.

Most Wanted is almost exactly the same as the xbox version. I really couldn't even tell the difference except for being able to see rain drops LOL. It's a good game either or.


If I had some money I'd be all over the 360 but I'm also now curious about the PS3, I wonder how it will compete in the market.

I got mine last Friday. My wife bought it for me from Wal-Mart. My screen name is the same so you should already have me on your list. So far I have GRAW, Blazing Angels, and Oblivion.

Anyways, I've only got PDZ and the demos for now, hopefully I can pick up Blazing Angels and GRAW soon.
