Not knocking the deal but come on these companies are crazy as all hell charging $900 for a damn console. WTH with pickles and mustard on a warm oven toasted bagle with cream cheese do they think we're that crazy as a fox?
Man I have smelled socks on a monkies redass ape that made more sense then B&N selling me a huge bag of wieners.
Im off to slap the clown. :D

HEY a quarter!

So tell me how you're not knocking the deal, will ya?

Im not knocking it because if you have the money go for it BUT how about a bundle right now that is more down to earth with out all the stuff that we can pre-order that wont cost an arm and a leg?

And if you couldnt read my reply and understand I ment more then a console with out having to spell it out your an idiot. The whole conversation was about the bundled console for $900. Almost EVERY pre-order hot deals thead is about a bundle. How in the fudge could you even think I ment the console only:p Next time for all the people who cannot use thier brain I will make sure to spell and write everything out so there wont be a problem again like this.
And with my reply you should of known I was also messing around. Get a brain and a sense of humor, no really :roll:

I'll have to remember this for when someone tells me they don't like PC games because a gaming PC is too expensive.

Have we gone so far where we consider $900 a "bargain" for videogames?

well, isn't the XBOX 360 supposed to be worth like $600? but they figured that they can't sell it for that much so they take a hit and make all their money through games.

If buy "wort" you're talking about the actual price, then no, it's nowhere near $600 Basic X360 is $299 and the Premium package is $399

The games on the Xbox will be on PC anyway... or the PS3.

If you're lucky, maybe Sony will allow you to integrate the PS3 with your PC, and will take it over and hide DRM malware that you can't remove. :)


Hah, now your a fvckin moron. PS3 games on the pc ? MSG4, GT4, R&C,etc will be on pc ?
Now as I see it , the best games the xbox 360 will have out on launch are also on the pc.
Im referring to CoD2 and ES: Oblivion. Not dissing the 360 cuz if Gears of War was a launch title id be there for sure. That game hasnt been announced for either pc or ps3, yet.
And I would love to put my hdtv to more good use. Too bad that new 512 card will be out in a couple of weeks cuz im planning to step-up. But if the ps3 gets delayed to 2007/or not out when gears gets here then ill definitely get the x360.

By "worth" I mean the actual cost of making it is more than what they are selling it for (cuz of the graphics hardware, which is evident in the debut prices of the newest generation of gamer video cards) and the way they make money is through games, not the console itself.
