My brother is on the list to get one of the first X-box's in our area. He's going to bring it over once he gets it.

I cant wait to play it on our HDTV's... :D

Show me a computer that you can build for $400 that will perform like the 360 on an HDTV.

MOFO you've defenently got a point. I'm just sayin that with 400$ you can build a computer that can be one hell of a gaming machine plus you can do more with it. Even tho the new Xbox 360 has alot more features this time aroun. But i would defenently choose the 360 over the ps3. have u seen those controllers for the ps3 talk about pointlessly weird.

No, he's not building a system that would out perform a 360. The video card alone to do this would be half your budget. The rest would be processor, memory, motherboard, audio board, power supply, case...etc. Your not buying all of this for $200...

If you buying new components, its not happening. I would say $600-700 would be a VERY cheap computer that might challenge a 360.

nahh, im goin with the PS3 most likely, i never have liked the xbox games or controllers, or just anything about it really.

Price will be the main factor though. Im not spendin a bunch of money on a dang game system, so i can spend even more on games for it.

Same here.... my brother is getting the 360 and I'll have the PS3 - then we are comparing them. He claims his 360 is going to be better...I think the PS3 will kill it.

Are u guys nuts? Theres a pile of them for sale at my local Game Stop.. saw them with my own 2 eyes yesterday

I think ps3 is gonna miss alot of sales since it's not coming out till after x-mas.... I've always dogged x-box for having no games and a funky controller... But I don't know wtf sony was thinking with that horshoe looking thing they call a controller.... Chalk me up for an x-box...

Wal-mart told me that it was illegal to sell them untill midnight of the 22nd of november. so i doubt they have sold any unless their pre-ordered

Yes, my GameStop and BestBuy have them in the stores right now but they're only demo-ing them, they can't be sold.

I played the xbox at Best Buy, and I wasnt impressed at all with medal of honor, but that king kong game was nuts, it felt real. There were a bunch of little glitches and sharp edges in the medal of honor game, so i told my friend who works there and he told me that Xbox 360 is made for HDTV or something, and the TV they had it hooked up to was just a basic TV, so I have an idea of what to expect now, but i want to see it on an HDTV, because its just a normal xbox off of an HDTV.

Oh yea, and the controller is amazing. I used to hate the old controller but the 360's is great.
