Don't even bother buying one. Every game for it so far is just decent, but doesn't go as far as being great or amazing.

Jusr keep in contact with your gamestop via phone. They usually know when a shipment's coming, and if you're persistant they'll gladly tell you ahead of time.

Only an idiot would buy an Xbox; only an even bigger idiot would buy an Xbox 360.

PROTIP: Every good Xbox 360 game is available on the PC for $10 less, and gon't give me that "well my computer is old and can't handle and i don't like mice" shit, because American computers are often sold cheap and fairly powerful and controllers do exist for PCs.

It has better Bioware games, like Baldur's Gate.

And I wouldn't doubt a PC port of the game sometime soon.

Well, there's that new "rain-check" program in GameStops where they tell you when they're getting shipments and how many units they're getting.

Wasn't that only until Christmas or the end of 2007? befuddlement
Anyway, I managed to just walk into Toys R Us and buy one. I actually was looking for a DS Lite, but I got pretty lucky. Just look around any stores you can. powerofone;

Panzer Dragoon Orta isn't on PC

Also he has a point, Xbox 360s cost $350 or so and a new computer would cost $600 at the most for a one good enough to play most games that are on both 360 and PC.

Yeah I would go with a 360. A 360 you can get for $350, and decent gameing PC is like $700+. Also most people I know have shitty PCs. I have some Dell Dimension 3000 which is like 5 years old and has 512 MB of RAM. I can hardly run Star Wars Empire at War. Also Halo 3 isn't on PC and thats honestly all I play even though I also have COD4, and Mass effect.
