Video Game Consoles

[Aquaman]

Get them on the first day of release?

Sure it's cool to have but couldn't you wait a bit? It's not like they are only going to sell them for a couple days.

Cheers,

as a kid? for the cool factor.

as an adult? I don't I wait until a system has an established base of games I want to play before I decide whether or not it's worth putting the money into.

Though I have no intention of buying one, I can understand why people wait in line on release day. Look at all the people who pre-order graphics cards or wait in line a day for concert tickets or a book. Whatever gets you your kicks. Not to mention, look how many people have made major coin selling their place in those lines or who plan on selling their 360 for profit.

xbox =3yrs to half price
ps2=4 years to half price
wait that long and the console only has what? 2 yrs left? ur choice

Its a new technical gadget.

Heck, people even buy cell phones that cost more than the 360 when they first get released.

I waited 2 years to buy my xbox, and then I bought it used. It still works fine, and I'm glad I didn't buy it new.

It's these folks that enable me to get the same stuff dirt cheap later on. I salute them.
