After Playing the xbox 360 at my local walmart I was just amazed by its beautiful graphics, I was playing on a Hdtv, so it was just really something,like a whole different level of gaming I done, Im a sony fan boy,and slowly becoming a xbox one too. I can't Belive how the xbox 360 is being sold out everywhere, Im really shocked that at gamestop.com all there package bundles got sold out,even the $1,999.00 and I think there was a $ 4,000 bundle,if there was that one got sold out too. I wonder if this will happen for the Ps3 too, I have my doubts tho somehow. But who knows.

I like the line-up. Nice set of games there!

It sounds like the graphics for the consoles are finally catching up to the PC's. Not to be biased towards the PC but when I have played HL2, FEAR or Quake 4 on my PC and then switch over to my Xbox its like night and day. Graphics are pretty horrible on the old xbox so I'm hoping the 360 we'll get me back into some interest in consoles.

i'm slowly moving off of pc games and goin in the direction of the xbox 360 and psp units. it's getting too costly for me to keep up with tomorrow's technology :D

Xbox360 pods have hit the UK too. I took a shot of it using my cameraphone. Its so good in that case, The dudes in GAME actually hooked it up correctly and the CoD2 demo looked really great!

Eh? Why not? Don't you have a cable that you plug it into the PC with?

How is that even possible? I've never seen a video card with a male VGA connector.

Hmm, well, although that doesn't make brillant sense... can you remove the cable from the back of your monitor? (and don't keep tugging to find out :p) I would guess not but..

i can from my lcd but not the monitor i plan to use it with (the monitor i want to use it with is about 2-3 yrs old)

[Osiris]

I know a google would probably solve this, but for the purpose of keeping it in house, is the xbox360 for sale yet? if not when is its official release date?

586803707[/snapback]

Yeah, sorry, I've got 2 LCD's on my desk so thats what I was looking at. :p I guess the cable is meant more for those TV's used as computer monitors as well...

Do you reckon that third one would do the job? We have male to male..

22nd in the United States, but people are saying some silly stores are giving them out early (so take that story with a grain of salt I guess)

[The Teej]

Male to Male connections are nasty :/

Yeah that would work just fine. But I don't understand why Microsoft would put a male connector on there. It just doesn't make sense.

I guess its meant more for the TV's that can be used as monitors. They have female connectors I do believe. :)

thats what im thinking

[SuperJediMedia]

I made a Poll

When are you trying to get Xbox 360?

[Pc_Madness]

You missed out on the "live in the most unimportant country in the world on this 'worldwide release' and have to wait 4 months longer than everyone else" option :(

[Afroman]

OK so, too not start another thread..

I didn't get a chance to pre order one.. i have the cash now.. and i have the time to wait it all out... so my question is, where would "YOU" go get one, Target, Wal-Mart, BestBuy, etc and what would be your plan of attack?
