I'm going to the Dark Side
|
|
|
Best Buy in Canada is having a sale of 20 gig 360s for $199. I'm going to grab one today if I can. Fuck Sony and fuck censorship. If it wasn't a 60 gig, I'd be selling it.

You blame Sony for LBP?

Well, it looks like none.
I went to two different stores today where the 360 is on sale.....and they were sold out. They're not getting any more and one manager of a Best Buy literally told me I was S.O.L.
Fuck.

You could always buy an arcade for $200 and then buy a 20GB hard drive from Microsoft for $20.

How easy are they to insert? And where can I get the HD?

Like, really easy? Honestly it just snaps onto the top of the console.
Get the hard drive here

You also get some free games with the arcade versioni, which is pretty cool.

That's what Brian has. I gave him my old 20 gig.
Seriously though, there's no point in being mad at Sony. Just own both consoles, and then you can play whatever you want without choosing a stupid side. As though if your side wins someone is gonna mail you a check with a thank you note attached. Both consoles have pluses and minuses. If you get some glue you can attach them both together and create the PlaySixty.

Well, I couldn't get the 20 gig that I wanted, but I'm going to keep my eye out for deals around leading up to Xmas and Boxing day

Where will you be buying it? I can't remember where you live, but in the US every 360 console will come with 2 games, and in Europe there are 8 360 bundles with various different games.

Canada.
The arcade comes with a Pac Man game...but that's it.

I doubt you're interested in the games, but...eh...
Xbox 360 elite bundle
Xbox 360 Pro bundle
I guess Canada doesn't have the arcade bundle. The regular arcade comes with PacMan Championship edition, Boom boom rocket, feeding frenzy, luxor 2, and UNO. The new holiday bundle for the arcade includes those along with Sega Superstars tennis.

Indy Lego, yes. Kung Fu Panda - no.
I might wait and get the holiday bundle, depending on finances.
I'm debating on getting a Pro or an Arcade because I don't plan on getting Live. I just want to play the RPGs. I don't really need a 60 gig HD in that case.
Thanks for the heads up though.

I'm pretty excited about the Namco virtual arcade collection; $30 and you get PacMan CE/ Galaga Legions and a bunch of other older games.
