lets see who else was dumb enough to get 360...lol.
You know when I left IGN when 07..I think it was sdvr07 came out, they were saying how great 360 was and how it was so much better than ps2 and that the ps3 would be crap, now more than half of those idiots have a PS3... I would make fun of them if it wasn't so sad.

The 360 is still getting more shelf space than the PS3 in all the shops frequent so it can't be doing that badly. You left IGN? Please don't say you were actually a member. |

XBOX was doing great because it was the first next gen system and it was cheaper than ps3. Beyond that it has nothing new to offer that the original didn't have... except better graphics obviously and possibly a better online feature. Does no one have Windows on their computer? do they not see its the same shit every installment with an actual upgrade ever 4 or 5 installments? Why would you expect different from the xbox?

Why would you expect different from the xbox? blah the first gen 360 games I think were just ported over Xbox games. The first 360 game I took notice of was Lost Planet which I think was Jan-Feb 2007 With that said the only game that was going to get me to buy a PS3 was Virtua Fighter 5 but then the 360 got a better version of that. The 360 got a better version of MUA. I couldn't give a crap about Halo 3 or MGS4. If I wanted to play Final Fantasy shite I'd plug in my SNES dammit. I'm sure I'll get a PS3 eventually, but alas there are just no games available that would make me go out and buy the console. I doubt I'll ever buy a Wii as all I have to do is wait for nintendo to release their next console so the fanboys will just be throwing them out. |

Well I'm sure software companies love you. DOA4 should be about $15 your neck of the woods by now if that. |

Still floating at the $50 mark at the moment.
But software comapnies do love me I make more money then I know what to do with so I just waste it on games and dvd's.
This smackdown is well worth it though. After a few hours I can safley say it is a very big improvment on last year.

I paid $50 for Lost Odyssey but seeing as how it was 4 discs I figured it was worth it. Pretty decent game if you like RPGs |

They wanted $130 for GTA4 when it first came out with the bold cliam that the RRP was $140-$150. And yo would thnk thats the price for some sort of special edition with alot of bells and whistles but no. |

I only paind $80 for that as well.
But one of my friends was stupid enough to get a "special edition" he paid $150 and got the same game that I got except it was in a cheap black bag that had GTA IV printed on it.

I don't remember the price of the special edition of GTA4 as I usually don't bother with such things. Heck I didn't even bother with GTA4. I have the special edition of Gears of War as it came with my 360 and the special edition of Lost Planet as it was the same price as the normal edition. |
