I wanted the 360. I enjoyed my Xbox. I'm about as un-hardcore of a gamer as it gets. I have a 20" no-name brand TV that I got from Walmart about 2 years ago for $99. I have enough money to buy a LCD without having to resort to selling off my property. But my money is going somewhere else. There's no way I'm shelling out $200 for the HD-DVD drive or whatever, unless you need it to play future releases.
And how is the PS3 suited for the casual gamer? Bluetooth this, bluetooth that, probably will cost at least $500, who knows, I've seen articles saying it could cost $600. And if regular DVD games for the 360 cost $60, how much would the Bluray games cost, seeing as how I can get a DVD player for $30 and it costs at least $2000 or whatever for a Bluray player.
I have no idea what all that HDMI and 1080p and 480i or whatever crap means. All I know is that when I bring the 360 over to a friend's house and plug it into his 42" SONY LCD, it's a beautiful thing.
Yes, he has a SONY television, and he has the original Xbox. I don't know what the big deal is between this Sony vs. Xbox thing.
Whatever. When I go to Target there is always someone hogging the 360 display, still.
The whole line-up consists of the $60 Amps in-ears and $100 Tracks on-ear headphones, which both also come in slightly souped-up and pricier HD variations at $100 and $130, respectively.
