RSS FeedXbox 360 Hands On - Final Thoughts at Joystiq
October 14th, 2005Filed Under: HD Gaming
James over at Joystiq has an interesting take.
if by November 2006 the Premium Bundle has dropped to $300, you’ll have spent less than $10/month covering the difference between this (projected) discounted price and the $400 launch price. That’s pretty insignificant for the majority of us with a gaming budget.
Right on, what’s a 100 bucks for next gen gaming today. I think my budget can handle it, if I need to I can cut something else out.
The Xbox 360 is not going to blow your mind. But I’ll be damned if after an hour or two of playtime you’re not wearing a big grin across your face.
Sounds like a worthy purchase to me.
He comments on not buying into the hype, and that’s cool. But come on, who buys into the hype these days besides fanboys - they don’t even need the hype. I know our HD angle is a bit more specialist than the mainstream, but I am definitely looking forward to HD res and WIDESCREEN as default for EVERY title! That is enough reason for me to want to jump on this baby.
