Whatever system she buys, she's probably overwhelmed with the sheer amount of pretty buttons to push in the first five minutes, and thus moves on to the next one in hopes of it having fewer buttons.

Money is great. Too bad it can't buy her a pretty face. She can get more money tho selling her face as a Halloween mask.

Though I doubt it will happen, I hope that this supposed videogame crash will fucking annilhilate all this trendy bullshit that really has nothing to do with games. Spike TV/G4 awards shows, well G4 in general...celebrities who don't give a flying fuck about games cashing in on the trend.

This is what happens when things get mainstream popularity.

Shh!! the PCE is supposed to be only uttered at a certain time when the full moon shows.

I'd like to go into the stores and smash some 360's myself, the system isn't worth the 400 bucks.

Thank goodness for NES, SNES, PCE, PS 1, Saturn, and Genesis for consoles, Amiga, C64, and others for PC.

The 360 has been nothing but excellent for me so far.

Played it at a shop last week.
Graphically it's got nothing that hasn't all ready been dispalyed on the PC using modern & fairly older graphic cards.

Hell, it didn't look that much better than the older X-Box & PS-2.

So that doesn't quite justify the 400$ price tag, at least for the moment.
Here it costs 400 Euros which is a bit more: $471!

Did they even run tests to see if it worked after they smashed it? If the thing can take a good beating before malfunctioning, that's always a plus in my book.

Edit: The cover slid off after it landed from being tossed into the air. Microsoft still hasn't learned that heavy consoles only have an advantage when they're NOT dropped from that high off the ground. Sheesh. That's why the Gamecube won in hardware reliability.

Heh. Shows Microsoft right for releasing their fancypants next-gen console before Christmas.

Does anyone else here feel that it's a bit too early for a next-gen system? M$ is pulling off a Sega Dreamcast here.

I think It's about right, 4-5 years is (mostly) the time when they release the next consoles.

But it never feels right, at least for me, not to mention now that $200 console you bought is now obsolite.

What about a Personal Computer?

Computers are obsolite as soon as you buy them.

No it's about right. The ps2 really should have had a successor a long time ago though. It's basically just barely better than a dreamcast so the tech was already old when it was released.

The xbox is already getting a little old too if not completely so since so many of the games coming out for it are tapping every bit of its power.

Still too many. You know those commercials with the big red "easy button" on them? I'll bet she already has one of those for most aspects of her life...now she just needs one to hook up to a video game system.

"Look! Look! I pushed the button and won again!"
