I heard they're supposed to replace PCs and eventually, all of your entertainment needs will be in one convenient box.


Oh man, I just realized that the possiblities of dirty jokes from that statement are endless.

i like Nintendo's new hover-disk technology.

[ignom]

I'll buy one when they are free.

I still have an XBox Live account I haven't used in months. I need to figure out how to cancel it. I don't even have any XBox games anymore.

I figured out how to hook my XBox to display on one of my computer monitors and then got a keyboard/mouse adapter so I could play FPS games the way God intended.

I haven't played with it in months.

* ReBurninator starts saving spare change and makes room in the entertainment center.

* ReBurninator also really, really, really hopes that Xbox 360 has backwards compatability so that he can get rid of the big, black brick.

The xBox doesn't have to look like a big black brick.

Oooh, red bricks and yellow bricks (vogon ship?) and green bricks....

I kinda wonder when I will actually invest in another console.  I currently have a 2600, a NES, a PSX, and an N64 (courtesy of Alice, I didn't buy that one).  Part of me would like to have an Xbox, but I don't tend to play games alone, and I don't have enough friends down here to play.  Whate else is the new generation of consoles supposed to do?  PVR?  If they serve other functions, it might be worth it.

And I could put air shocks on it and make it bounce up and down while I'm playing it, too.

I'll trade you my Playstation 2 for your 2600, but only if you throw in Yars Revenge.

I believe I do have Yars' Revenge, but I can't tlet the 2600 go.  This is going to sound really odd, but it was my grandmother's, so it has sentimental value.

I'd rather play Megamania any day.

Possibly not, but You should keep in mind that it was odd for her to have one.  I'm 27, so I'm old enough to remember when Atari was THE console to have.  So don't feel bad.

Hey!  I'm 27 and I remember begging for an Atari.  Me and my sister would play games for hours on it.

Me too, except I'm 28 and I only had a sister when me and my cousin dressed Tyler up in skirts and makeup.

Man, those were the days.

[ignom]

I'm 27 and I didn't get an Atari until everyone else already had an NES.

[cnamon]

I had an Atari when I was 3 or 4...then my dad bought us a Nintendo, but he totally took that over.

I am scared to buy him another gaming console...he would never leave the house.

[cnamon]

I love the ship bathroom.  I like the other bathroom also.

Wrong thread.

[Bishamonten]

Nintendo better start with a better/more release of games and a network capable 'live' system( WarpPipe is okay, but it's not exactly dreamy ).

[Alice]

If I get any more consoles, I'll need another entertainment center.   

All these better be backwards compatible.

[Bennyhana]

If the new generation are backwards compatible (just looking at the Nintendo one I doubt it because there's no tray to accomodate the smaller discs), I might go ahead and buy one of this generation used.  I'd imagine the market will be flooded with them.

[eo000]

sheesh, i already said the xbox one will be with most of it's games.

[Jessie]

We were always one console behind the times.

[ignom]

[Alice]

I've just been reading in Games Insider that Microsoft said it was too expensive and they don't think they will be.  But hopefully your info is more recent than mine.

[Beefy]

I think I am through with consoles.

I'm with you if they're not backwards compatible.

One of the biggest questions left unanswered at the Xbox 360's splashy debut on MTV last week-backward compatibility with existing Xbox games-was answered, sort of, at Microsoft's E3 news conference here. Yes, Microsoft said, the most popular Xbox games will be playable on the 360. But that suggests there will be at least a few Xbox games that won't be playable, given the transition to the 360's new IBM PowerPC processor, and that could spell trouble if someone's favorite Xbox game suddenly breaks when played on the Xbox 360.

Will the XBox 180 cost half as much?

I think the "XBox 180" is what will happen when you walk up to it in the store and look at the price.

[vampirepenguin]

Looking forward to the new SexBox...OMG...hours of overpriced entertainment!! I'm gettin all squishy just thinking about it.

Level 50 doesn't exist.  It's just a rumor.

I'd trade in all my other entertainment devices for one "convenient box."
