When you buy an x box 360?

Should I buy X-Box 360?

  • Hi, thanks for openin' this question. So, I have been playin' computer games ever since I was in 2nd grade and still playin' to this date. But when I moved to America, I was introduced to Video gaming and most of my friends owned consoles. I have been playin' X-Box at my friends' house such as Madden, NBA Live, Halo, Tiger Woods PGA Tour, etc. But recently, I saw Tekken 6 trailer and matches on Youtube and I really wanted to play it. And besides, when people come over, they have nothin' to do. If I were to buy X-Box 360, I have to spend roughly 550 dollars for everything I need. But thing is, Diablo 3 will be coming out 1-3 years from now and once Diablo 3 comes out, I will be committed to Diablo 3. So, my real question is, would you spend 550 for X-Box 360 and play it for good 1-3 years? Best answer will be awarded with dime. Thanks for your time and answers in advance.

  • Answer:

    $550 for over 3 years is not much. You will still have nothing for people to play if you wait.What are you going to do show them the demo for Diablo 3 every time they come over? get the same system as your friends so you can swap when you get sick of them.

OK I KNOW THIS IS A LONG ANSWER AND U MIGHT NOT HAVE THE PATIENCE TO READ IT BUT I THINK IT HAS ALL WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW: Get an xbox 360 if u want great graphics, high performance, top notch gaming but at one condition, u might be affected by RRoD (red ring of death) , The most common fault in the xbox which is caused by overheating. This is a problem more than 40% of the xbox 360 user are facing these days. This is caused due to overheating. Another prob wid d 360 is noise levels. The PS3 is an efficient, user friendly device which has almost all the features of the xbox including a few others. Blu-ray is one of the biggest advantages of getting the ps3. As i heartd many people saying it doesnt matter in terms of gaming, heres what i say 2 them. Blu-Ray DOES MATTER, as the 360 uses HD-DVD which at a max can hold 9 gb of space whereas blu-ray discs can hold upto 50 gb of memory. And more memory = more textures, game files .etc. Though most of the ps3 games arent taking advantage of this, most of the ps3 exclusives do ( killzone 2, metal gear solid 4, uncharted ). But even i agree the xbox has better lighting but not better textures though most of the peole say so. Actually most of the multi platform games do not utilize the blu-ray features in the ps3 discs as they have to maintain equality in the sales in terms of both consoles I was a pc gamer all this time too and i know the better choice. Having the pc is awesome but it has its turn offs. New games acn never stop releasing and obviously they must have better system requirements and we must be upgrading our pc every now and then but as we all know consoles are just single mediators between the game and the gamer. Im not a ps3 fanboy at all coz i was about 2 buy an xbox 360 be4 a ps3 but i opted 4 the ps3 looking at the advantages of the blu-ray.... But i have to say it took me long to get my eyes off the pretty fancy 360. They have the same features but the 360 presents it in a fancy way. Even after looking at the ps3 vs 360 articles which clearly proved the 360 inferior, i couldn't let my eyes off the fancy 360. IM EDITING MY ANSWER AGAIN TO GIVE YOU A VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION: If you see the "ps3 vs xbox 360 graphic comparisions" the 360 version have better graphics in all cases. I have a reason why this happens. The ps3 is capable of wayy better graphics than the 360 but the "multi-platform game" developers only care about thier profits. They make the game on the 360 first as its cheaper and not as complicated as the ps3 and then they port it (or copy it making a few changes) to the ps3. This si really unfair for the ps3 owners and this is the reason behind the ps3 having inferior graphics in "multi-platform games". Did you ever notice the ps3 exclusives are wayy better to any game on the 360. MGS4 is one example, it takes almost 30 gb of space in a "compressed" format. thus, this game can never be made on the 360. Anyways ive also got good news. Developer (like EA) are turning towards the ps3 as the lead platform. Check this out: http://gamer.blorge.com/2008/08/04/ea-focus-on-ps3-as-lead-platform-for-game-development/ YAYY!!!! im not a ps3 fanboy cz i mentioned the pros of the ps3 but nothing negative abt the 360 and i respect both consoles as a gamer.the ps3 is more capable only cz it came out later aftr the 360.

Both X-Box and PS3 are same price. X-box, you have to pay a subscription play online. Playstation's multiplayer is free. Tekken 6 is on both systems, and do you really want to buy a system that has a 50% failure rate? You're more than likely have to buy another Xbox within a year.
