...pre-ordered :P
:lol:
Anyways, wanted to know when everyone else might get theirs. And what they were looking forward to in the 360.
Also preordered Madden '06, Call of Duty 2 and Perfect Dark Zero.
Cant wait to play so 50 player PDZ on XB Live for free :01:
EDIT: Forgot to include that i barely made the list for the 2nd shipment in my area. So ill get mine alittle before Christmas.
i thought online play required a fee and the free stuff was just content?
Nope, online service is free... content cost money. Thats how it should be :)
How much did you pay or going to pay ?? :huh:
im prolly not gonna pre-order, ill wait till it dies down and buy one.
Thats what i'll be doing unfortuanly.Quote:

Uhhhhhh..
no...I don't :mellow:
Hey remeber the lunch of the DS, they ran out of units. I think it was the same with the XBox, ran out so it was hard to get.Quote:

Folks who have to have that shit on launch day are geeknutty anyway. Reminds me of folks camping out to see Revenge Of The Shit at midnight ffs.
I bought my tickets online and picked them up to see it 2 days later.
I don't know what the DS had for lunch btw. What units? Energon cubes?
Yea... your right. I didnt look hard, just gamestop and Toys R' Us
The main thing is not to feel like you missed out by not being a first adopter.Quote:

Good at least something like "affordation" will keep you at bay. Jeez. :ermm:Quote:

It must be an age thing.
xbox 360 may not be as good as you think is it, why is everyone so exited about it, lol, save up, build a decent computer, if u ask me the xbox 360 is a waste of money, same with ps3, even tho i think ps3 is going ot be better and i am a playstation fan, i aint going to buy a ps3 untill it comes right down in price, i will use my money to buy a decent computer, stuff consoles for now, they had there time, now pc's are taking over.
You are wrong about xbox live. You can chat for free and make a profile. but to paly online you need to pay. it said so in electronic gaming monthly :P
ooo chatting lol, wow can do that on pc :p, in games and out of games, lol there may be advantages about having an xbox over a pc but more advnatages for pc :p, i maybe wrong, but then again, i may not be wrong.
:lol:Quote:
