    Giving away two games that have hit their sales peak just to sell more consoles is a very smart business move. Microsoft is getting a few more cash rakes from Santa this year, I'm sure.

    The fall dash update is rumored to include Xvid support as well. I am not getting my hopes, but if all else fails, I still have Transcode360.

    Yeah but it came with fucking lame tennis and some other shitty game didnt it?

    Thats pretty rad man. MS is really making moves while Sony just tries to get HOME ready which is be pointless 90% of the time.

    I think it was Tetris Attack and Starwars Battlefront or something. My old roomate had it, I'm pretty sure that's what the case had on it. I sorta liked Tetris attack though, everyone wanted to play it if you played it at a party.

    It's a shame to see Sony doing so poorly. Talk about dragging your feet on the exclusives.

    I'm glad M$ is doing well. I've always been a MS fanboy and am glad to see them doing well. Maybe they'll actually start making money in the next hardware cycle. Ha.

    I'll hold out till the elite hits $250-$300 should be a year and a half away.

    I on the other-hand found now a great opportunity to get rid of my 360 and replace it with a PS3 :p

    There aren't many Xbox exclusives I would say I 'must' have. Don't even mention Halo, I hate it. (Over-hyped bullshit game IMO.) + my 360 was sitting around gathering dust (I'm not a hardcore gamer.) and I was interested in a Bluray player. EB's had a nice deal going, so I took it up.

    At least he makes a little sense.

    He still didn't name any games though!

    :D
