ya i think its a bit too late for the XBox 360 'Elite' as they call it.

Think they wanna step up their game and compete with the PS3 and its capabilities. heard its coming out in April or May.

I just know I'm goin to pass on this and go for the PS3 since the games coming out soon are for that system. WOOT! GTA IV (trailer is suppose to be up soon)

I got one pre-ordered... Anyone want to buy one (with controller, HDD, and custom faceplate {1 of 5000}?)

















Just kidding.. I would only get one if it were hot pink or lime green (GO WII)

nintendo was great for a bit.then came the begginning of the end.
any old school gamer knows exactly what im talking about,...........nintendo 64.
they were trying to compete with sony and were still on cartridge.
ever since then, nintendo has been 2 steps behind.
the onlt thing seperating the wii from others right now is the motion sensetive controller wich is more hassle then it's worth.
if i wanted to get that involved with bowling,fishing,golfing,etc. then i'd go bowling,fishing or golfing.
so on to the only two platforms that matter:
IMO PS3 just got pimp slapped.
microsoft knew what they were doing because i've heard of the elite days before the PS3 was to be released.
micro soft basically said"here's a cheap down graded version of what were comin with"
sony answered with the PS3 and microsoft trumped em with the original model they had planned.

the only thing that is keeping sony in the game right now is top notch exclusive titles.
when the GTA double pack was released for xbox, their sales jumped 30% in a week proving this point.
when gta.SA was released it was another 15%

if microsoft gets ahold of some of the exclusive contracts then it's all over for sony.

cheers,

i have friends in college that will play the wii some to get there mind off of tests and crap, and they like it, because of the games require you to be a little more active than others. i'm willing to bet thats one of the reason you dont like the wii, is being acive.

and i think once gamers mature, they will notice that they cant spend there free time playing games, but something productive, or something with a salary. not spend money on a new system.

man, i can tell you right now that im more active then most.
i run a buisness and have side jobs on top of all of the honey-do's and yard/housework, not to mention the xmods,cars and motorcycle projects, yet i still find time to get me a good gaming session in atleast 4-5 times a week.
video games are meant to be just that.
pretty soon there is going to be a point where noone will go out and do a **** thing because they can just sit at home and do it with a controller even though it will never be close to the real thing.
you cannot swing an 8OZ. controller the same way you can swing an oversized driver or a loft wedge therefore it will never be realistic.
like i said, if i wanted to get that involved i would go play a round.

i hear what your saying about buying a new system though.
they get more and more expensive. thats why i let my freinds buy them and then hang out at their houses.
i have an xbox,ps1,ps2, 3 nintendo's,1 nintendo64,1 sega saturn, 1 atari jaguar, and an intellivision.
the only ones i have hooked up are the ps2 and the xbox. the rest are for nostalgia and collecting.

call me a purist but video games are meant to be played sitting down while eating cheetos and drinking faygo red pop.

I agree with this statement completely. Except for the Faygo part, how anyone can drink that swill is beyond me.
