Dang, it's sweet.

I hope PDZ holds my interest, anyway. So far so great.

Of course you can...

Providing you at least tell us a little more about the experience, tell us what it is you love so much about it, everything you've liked so far and anything you've disliked (if anything so far).

The topic is fine as long as there's content to go with it, we'd all like to hear more about X360 owners experiences, it's the latest thing now and it's new to all of us so it's interesting. It's great to know you love it, now tell us what makes it so good...

It would be nice to have some details really, or else this thread is very GAF or IGN... Not much juice in it...

Give us details, pictures, whatever man... Just give us the X Factor!!! :lol:

Oh..not much to say.

The unit is slick as expected. It's louder than Xbox1 at idle, though.

At first PDZ underwhelmed me. But the subtle touches of the graphics start to impress.

Oh..it's heavy!

But every aspect of the system has been disected..so you'll know what to expect. But it's still "neat".

My unit..

Oh and I had to get the core pack. Premium was sold out. Before that question is asked..

I noticed a lot of warmth coming off the brick now. I actually like this, it tells me the system is powerful, know what I mean?

I'm actually wondering if I got a defective. The fan is whiny. Wondering if that's normal, or I got a loud fan.

PS3 may well blow it out of the water. But for now it's next gen now.

Does this mean my X360 is more powerfull as it burnt a hole in my carpet?

Is it bad I want to take it apart and measure the CPU and GPU die sizes after removing the heatsinks?

Too bad that'd void my warrenty. Otherwise I probably would.

Why don't you just google the die size of Xenos and Xenon... much easier.

No, I think you should open it. Get the fire extinguisher ready though, just in case things get "heated" up. :idea:

I like the media hub capabilities of the system way more than the games. I like Call of Duty 2 and Project Gotham Racing 3 a lot. Not sure if I love the system though hehe, but I'm not regretting purchasing it at all. Geometry Wars Evolved is my favorite game on the system.

Went to my EB this morning a little after 8 and picked up the goods (got the console, PD0, and the play and charge kit... I picked up the other games earlier) :D

There's a Circuit City at the other end of the strip mall. I drove past there and they hadn't opened yet (they were supposed to open at 8). There was a huge line of people standing out there and even a tent at the front of the line. I feel sorry for those poor saps :lol: I was just driving by to see if they were open so I could run in there and buy Seinfeld seasons 5 and 6 on DVD. Now I have to make a second trip after work to Best Buy and pick them up.

I didn't have any time to play it this morning after I brought it home. Had to leave shortly after for work.

What is your address again, and how long do you work today... :twisted:

Did you hear about the kid who held up an EB for a couple of 360s at gunpoint? INSANE! :shock:

If you get a 360 today, keep your eyes open going from the store to your car and make sure no one follows you...I don't think I'm kidding. :???:

At gunpoint? That's crazy! :shock:

Yeah, when I drove past the people outside Circuit City I thought about pulling the console out and holding it up to show them. Probably a good idea I didn't since there were about 30-40 people total... I would have had to peel rubber out of there :lol:

Watch it l-b. We're just looking for an excuse to invade and occupy Britain. Why, if we didn't have our hands full with our neighbors to the north....

I think they should sue Jack Thompson. This was clearly based on his idea.
