Where'd you get your 360. I know I'm in Burnsville, and the Circuit City here still has quite a few at about 175 for the middle system. I'm still thinking about getting one. I got the Wii 'cause my wife and I have fun with it, but I've got that itch for a real gaming system. I especially want NBA 2K9, it looks ill as hell, and Street Fighter 4.

I live in Eden Prairie so I just picked one up from the Best Buy right by the EP mall. I didn't even think there were any Circut City's still open around here otherwise I definately would have got it there for $175 instead of the $300+tax. The Wii is good fun though. My friend got one, but the only game he has that is any fun (to me anyways) is Mario Kart. I had to get a regular system because there are hardly any shooters for the Wii. I was debating whether or not to get the PS3 because Killzone 2 is supposed to come out next week and the first one kicked ass, but I decided against it.

BETTER... better controls, better fighters and it looks real as fuck. My boy down the hall gots a 360. So somedays he comes here and his girl plays Wii, somedays I go over there and play 360.

yes fight night is a lot of fun 2 players but single player gets boring quick. you could find it used for under 10 bucks probably though

isnt a new Fight Night due? ???

i really dig the concept, i play it with my friends , you don't need to be so great at the start, it will up the challenge of the whole team. One of my friend didn't like it, because of the graphics and the lack of realism.

i liked it, it was sick at first; but just got old REAL quick. :-X

lmao, what did your freind expect? a realistic zombie game? :P

but i agree with him on the graphics aspect, they were pretty shitty & looked almost rushed, they could do a better job with those if there is a sequel.

left 4 dead xbox version aint really shit compared to the pc one. you gotta use a controller where instant reactions and accuracy is key, so that's already a fail. plus, the graphics on the console version really suck compared to it maxed out on the pc.

not evreryone likes to invest 500$ in the last graphic card every 6 months and in a cpu every year. fuck a pc really, i got tired of the programmers no optimmizing there product to make money to the hardware suppliers. I dont care anymore about the games that comes out on pc, crysis is the best exemple of what im saying. the game been out for a year and nobody can run it in high def still.

afro samurai is a pure delice, try the demo on the live you'll love it

I'm definately buying that game. The demo was great.

I just bought a baller ass computer in December and Portal is choppy as hell on it if the graphics are set on anything other than low. Albeit I'm running Vista, but the OS doesn't affect a game that much. Playing online games smoothly requires a computer worth two house payments.

graphics cards don't go out of date that fast. there's a lot on the market right now that will provide plenty of futureproofing. i got an ati 4850 which is great price/performance ratio card. can play any game fully maxed out (including crysis) with high framerate. my pc itself is over 2 years old.

Low Key what graphics card did your PC come with? if it was a top of the range machine 6 months ago i don't see any problems running any game out today fully unless it came with an underpowered graphics card. cpu should be 2.6ghz dual core or higher ideally and for vista - 4gb ram as a minimum.

It's an NVIDIA GeForce 7100/nForce 630i. Apparently, my performance tester on Vista says it sucks, so I guess I'll have to get a new one. It's not the RAM. Vista only requires 1gig of RAM, even with Ultimate, and I have 3gigs. VirtualBox runs Windows 7 smoothly while I search the internet and run my gadgets on Vista at the same time.

yeah its the graphics card why your gaming performance is so poor, thats all. like the vista ratings say. a geforce 9800gt (if on a budget) or ati 4850 (more futureproof) are both very reasonably priced cards that would give plenty of gaming power 8)

I checked newegg.com for prices, and both of those are so far out of my range. $200+ to play a $20 game isn't worth it to me. Even the 512MB cards with the GDDR5 memory type is upwards of $150. I'll just stick with flash games and Diablo. Does anyone still play on battle.net? lol
