    Generally unimpressed as it looks better but there is no innovation in gameplay.

    Don't get your hopes up on the innovation department.

    I have one preordered. I regret not getting an Xbox sooner than I did.

    A friend of mine said he knew he was taking a risk when he got his Xbox so soon after its release as he didn't know how well it would take off. Fortunately, for both Microsoft and for my friend, things did indeed take off and he's loved every minute of it.

    So now I thought I'd take a risk. Why the hell not, eh?

    I enjoy online gaming and having system link parties with my friends, so if the Xbox 360 experience is at least on par with the original Xbox then I will be happy to have been a part of it from day one.

    I seriously doubt that it will be any worse, and anyway, there is still the PS3 to look forward to also.

    With regard to innovation, Halo was/is hardly an innovative game but it is, in my opinion, a fucking lush game that has brought us all loads of fun. :)

    I didn't preorder a system, due to the price and the lack of interest with most of the launch titles. I think waiting this one out would be in my favor. Call of Duty 2 looks good (of course the PC version will look as good or better), the details in the atmosphere are awesome. The one game that sticks out in my eyes is Kameo. It looks to be a good launch title, although not sure how any of the first generation games will hold there replay-ability in a year or two.

    I know a few people that are getting the system, so I will have access to one at launch.

    Woah, woah, woah. This is all opinon here, but I do not find the 360 controller to be better than the Gamecube one. It's very nice, and is much better in design than the X-box ones though. My only complaints about it are the smooth d-pad and where the battery pack sits on the wireless one.
     
  9. I wish I had the money, but for now looks like I'm stuck being broke and 360-less. Anyone want to contribute to the "Buy Me a 360" fund?

    I'm currently waiting to get a 360..and a PS3 also..

    I have yet to see games that i really want to play for those systems.

    The Revolution seems very interesting.. cannot wait to see some screen shot of an actual game.. and get some more solid info on the controller and its uses.

    I might get one once there's a price drop. The only game I'm really interested in right now is Oblivion, and I'd rather play that on the computer. I'm also waiting to see what people do with the hardware (visual modifications).

    I have 5 Premium X360 Systems on pre-order. Mainly for lack of seccurity updates. I also have 1 already paid for at a Toys R' Us that my friend is a manager at. I'll create some buzz for the console, because I will "hang out" in my Spartan 117 suit of armor.

    Had mine pre-ordered for a while now. I got PDZ with it and might get another if I feel like it then.
