Two Days Until Xbox 360 Release

Microsoft is set to release the Xbox 360 on November 22. That's this upcoming Tuesday! There has been all sorts of hype surrounding the new console. It's reportedly going to be sold out worldwide on it’s release day. Along with the console, there will be 18 new games released the same day. This will include titles such as Call of Duty 2, Madden NFL 06, and Project Gotham Racing 3.

I'm not getting it the first day it’s out. On the other hand, I believe my brother is going to get it for Christmas. That will be awesome if he does! If he gets it then I'll still be able to play it when he's not using it. I tried out the Xbox 360 at our local Wal-Mart. The graphics were kick-ass! Call of Duty looked so real it made me feel like I was in World War II.

If you have an extra $300 or $400 lying around, definitely go purchase the new Xbox 360. Looking at the different packages, buying it for the extra $100 is well worth it if you can afford it. You'll regret it if you don' because buying the items that come in it separately is much more expensive. Or just wait a year or two for its price to drop. Furthermore, Sony and Nintendo will be coming out with new consoles in the near future. You may want to wait and see if they make something better than the 360.

The biggest downside I see to the 360 is the fact that it is a computer. I already have a computer so why should I dish out another $400 for another one. I can play video games on the computer I have. Most likely I'll eventually get the 360, but I'm a little skeptical as of now.
