I have one and it is a must. The games are like watching a movie or watching a race on TV. It is worth every penny of the price. My brother has the Need for Speed Most wanted for regular Xbox and I have it for 360. The graphics for the 360 are so much better than the x-box. it is a must to buy!

I'll wait for the PS3 , or a revamped 360 . I heard that they are full of bugs and don't work that great cause they were rushed out into the marcket . That's what i heard .

I've got better things to spend money on personally. The xbox 360's components are incredible and you can't beat the system specs; however, the price is way too high. It would never pay off with excitement. I would have wanted to spend $500 somewhere else. Plus, my friends have it, and I can just go over to their houses and play all I want for free.

True...One on ebay went before christmas for around $8,000 bucks...I would personally like to see it go down to around 250 dollars. Hopefully some of my friends will buy them so i don't have to...lol

I had one, sold it on ebay for $750. It is definately a must have for any hardcore gamer, I will definately be buying another to keep but only after the price drop this coming summer.

Are they getting easier to find? Microsoft really messed up, look at the stats, many retailers had to lower their earnings expectations as the Xbox 360 was not released in the numbers they expected.

I have a question about the 360. Do you need to have an HDTV to use these things or can you hook 'em up to a regular TV.

I read somewhere that you need to one in order to play.

Is that correct?
