The graphics and flexibility of a high-end PC like that are considerably better than a 360 and there aren't enough exclusive titles  to get them to buy one.  Halo is something of a joke (it's decent, but compared to HL2, Far Cry, FEAR, Crysis, etc. it's less than impresseve) and the good ones like KOTOR, Gears of War, Mass Effect, GTA, etc see PC releases at the same time or pretty soon afterward.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kamokazi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 10:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[I originally thought halo sucked, i went off and played CoD 4 as well as many other games online for the next 7 months. then i came back to halo and realized that the online experience is really great compared to others.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jason]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 10:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[It almost makes me want to go buy one.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dave Bergschneider]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 10:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wouldn't mind a free media center extender for my bedroom.

<br><br>Warning: Dell XPS m1730 is not really a laptop. <br><br>It will, however...<br><br>1) Burn a hole in your crotch if you put it on your lap, saving you hundreds of dollars in birth control for the remainder of your life<br><br>2) Include a power supply that is bigger and heavier than an Asus EEE PC<br><br>3) Blind you with its ultra shiny/reflective screen<br><br>4) Give you quite suitable performance in today's hottest games (assuming the video drives are updated unlike the XPS m1710)<br><br>Over all, a great system for a LAN, but definitely not something I'd dream of replacing an at home gaming PC with. Especially as someone who still enjoys the DIY gaming PC upgrade/build every year or so 15 years later.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[isdnelson]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 4:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry, but... Nobody's spotted this?<br><br>"The bundle includes, a pair of faceplates, two game and of course the Xbox itself"<br><br>Shouldn't it be "The bundle includes a pair of faceplates, two gameS and of course the Xbox itself" or "The bundle includes: a pair of faceplates, two gameS and of course the Xbox itself"<br><br>That's 2 grammatical errors...<br>Or is it just me?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phoenix]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 7:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[I noticed the deal for the XPS 630 last week and the "deal" breakdown is essentially the cost of the computer + 360 (for $450) - $488.  So its basically a free XBox with purchase of a computer.  If your in the market for both, its a good deal.  If your like me, and don't want an XBox, not so much.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kingdom2000]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 8:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[You guys are missing it here.  Dell is doing this because they know people who work at large companies will order this "Dell" laptop on their companies dime and keep the 360 for themselves.<br><br>Brilliant move!  To bad I just ordered a new laptop...<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Don]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2008 8:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell offers inexplicable Xbox 360 Elite bundle with certain XPS M1730 purchases]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/21/dell-offers-inexplicable-xbox-360-elite-bundle-with-certain-xps/</guid><description><![CDATA[If it doesn't have a red ring on it, it doesn't have a built-in 360]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 22nd 2008 1:59AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
