it was ok, beat it in two days.
It's all about the multiplayer fo me.
I have the 360 HD-DVD add-on and the quality is awesome! Movies that are only for BluRay in the US can be purchased overseas as the distribution rights are different. I have just ordered Total Recall HD-DVD which is BluRay only in the U.S. [ January 03, 2007, 01:55 AM: Message edited by: TrueBlue ]

Each platform console has it's pros and cons. Personally I bought a PS2 about 9 months after they had been out because I wanted to play the GTA series as well as the Metal Gear series which at that time were only available on the PS2.
Honestly lately I've been leaning towards the 360 due to Gears Of War and the next installment of Halo.
I haven't been playing anything other than SOCOM FTB II on PSP and other PSP games before bed.

i have a 360 and i love it; gears of war is definitely the best game out there right now. i plan on getting a wii whenever i can get it easily in stores and i'll buy a ps3 when they finally have killer apps for it. imo, sony is gonna lose a lot of market share with the ps3. its just way too expensive for most people and titles that were once exclusive to sony will most likely be multi platform this time around. as for pc gaming, a pc will always be able to outperform any console. however, it seems like gaming companies and developers are less willing to contribute time to pc games and thus for the most part we see bad ports and buggy games (with a few exceptions).

The Wii is for kids and old people looking to get exercise while playing ridiculously basic puzzle games until arm cramps render them helpless. My 50-year old Auntie has one because it's so easy to use.
I'll give it up to Nintendo for making an innovative console but I think their gamebase is just the same shit. Mario, Zelda, basic sports = $$$$$$ crop.

The 360 sucks ass, I was planing on buying one untill I played my friends 360 on his 42" Plasma. I played all the games, Gears of War, Fight Night, NHL 2007, a ton more games. I was not impressed at all, people have been talking about it like it is the holy grail of consoles. Only thing left to do is to play PS3 and see which is better for myself.

thats the problem with the 360 and the ps3. the games, given a few exceptions, are merely graphical upgrades and nothing more. the call of duty games, madden, etc., play pretty much the same as they did on the last gen consoles with the exception of looking better. however, over time the games will undoubtedly become better, look better, and play better. the ps2 and the original xbox didn't hit their respective stridse till a year or two into their run. in fact, i think this is why the nintendo wii is such a seller, it passed on providing drop dead gorgeous graphics and instead focused on innovating gameplay and the gaming experience.

that looks so sick man. and gears of war was definitely on my list of exceptions to games that were merely graphical upgrades. blind fire alone makes the game so awesome.

To me, Gears of War just looks really bland. I have seen it on an HDTV and it just seems to lack color and depth. I had a 360 and not all games seem that way to me, just Gears. I have been playing the demo for Motorstorm on my PS3 and the graphics quality is unreal on that game.

really!? compared to other console FPS's out there i think GOW looks amazing. maybe compared to half life 2 on a pc with all the graphical settings maxed out it may look bland, but compared to resistance, call of duty, i think it looks amazing. as for motorstorm, it looks cool, but the demo as far as gameplay goes sucks imo.

Maybe Gears of War lacks color since it's based ON THE END OF THE WORLD. Based on that, I have FPS's for awhile to notice that for a console game GOW definitely hangs with top-notch computer graphic-wise (but not speed wise).
When I imagine the end of the world I don't see striking fields of marigolds and luscious green rainforests, I think of broken buildings and smoldering bomb craters, etc. Which is what GOW is all about.
Also, a new map pack just came out via Xbox live from the developers of Gears of War just to enhance the multiplayer even more.

I've been meaning to ask you something.
I see you have ur 360 hooked-up to the HD connection, right? So my question is how do you hookup the 360 when my cable box is already using the HD connections on my TV?
PLEASE HELP
Thanks
