Hopefully. The 360 can only benefit from *not* being stereotyped as a FPS console like the original kinda was.
All I know is that apparently the controller is really comfortable... then again, it's the most normal-looking of the bunch, I'd have to admit.  |

Thanks for that Adament, because it is too damned true.
Regardless, if someone comes out with a lower quality console, but manages to get lots of them on the market fast that is an incentive for developers to manufacture games for that console because of the broader audience. I'm really hoping that this console will be a high quality machine like the original X-Box. And with a wider audience, maybe it will get more than Halo and Dai Senryaku. |

Yeah, because the N64 was the first console Nintendo ever made. And it's not the quality of consoles that's important, it's the number of them. |

I can't believe it already it going to be out soon. No wonder because this is the second xbox and the playstation and nintedno already have two systems and the third one going to be in 2006 maybe. That is probably why they release it already. |

I am not spending $400 dollars on a machine that won't play Samurai Warriors OR Serious Sam. Fuck the 360. Revolution all the way! Let's hear it for backwards compatablity! |

Will be really intresting to see how much it will sell, considering I hardly heard about what games it's going to have... at launch. 
Europa is a bigger market thna japan I guess, as X-box didn't do well over there. Last time I heard stuff like orginal GBA outselling the X-box. |

2006.
And you really can't get more precise than that at the moment. |

I'm glad I don't work in retailing. 
But yeah, this is kind of exciting. A lot earlier than I expected (I was thinking it would be released more around Christmas time).
I'll probably be getting the nice $400 package, along with Gears of War and Perfect Dark Zero. |

Friday after Thanksgiving. That would be the start of all holiday shopping. The day of sale hell/heaven, in essence. |

My game magazine said that the Xbox 360 was old already in the beginning.
I´m not sure about that. I´m sure it´ll have some really good games, though.
I don´t plan to buy it. |

North America: Tuesday, November 22
Europe: Friday, December 2
Japan: Saturday, December 10.
Just announced in Japan a matter of hours ago prior to the Tokyo Game Show. They missed Black Friday (which would have been spectacular) by 3 days. Shame.
But anyways... hey! You guys in Europe are actually getting a system before Japan! You should be thrilled!  |
