I was checking on eBay today... There was an xbox 360 on there that some guy had won on the mountain dew contest. It went for 3000+..... Another one went for 2800.. Cmon I mean 3000 for an xbox 360 and you get it 3 days before anyone else. IS IT REALLY FREAKING WORTH THAT MUCH TO HAVE IT BEFORE IT COMES OUT?!!!?!?!??!?!?!

someone was going to give you a free xbox360 and you turned it down. YES, that was a bad decision.

id wait too

wait for better games, PGR looks good, but it just doesnt cut it for me. im having way too much fun on the NFS most wanted demo on the PC anyway!
according to anand the first 360's dont appear to have a digitial video ouptut.. and that maybe later they'll start shipping with DVI or HDMI connections (since sony has said they will have 2x HDMI outputs) and of course HD-DVD

id definately wait

and for all those people saying it was stupid not to take it....well thats your opinion, i personally not keen on taking things/money from my dad even though he offers and says its fine.

im at uni, and the parents always ring up to check how i am, and when my dads on the phone the last thing he always asks is if im doing alright for money, i appreciate the gesture but i always says im fine for money even if it would be nice to have some more.

strange...but i just dont feel right about accepting money/gifts when theres not alot of reason for it

Buying a console right when it comes out is never a good idea, the technology hasn't been mastered by game developers, very little game seelction, highest possible price etc etc.
