I would say yes because the system is great but the games arent that good. Call of Duty 2 is amazing cause it was designed specificlly for the 360 so it uses the 360’s power the other games where xbox games that they stamped 360 on.

im going to wait until the price drops and until the modding community has made some progress.

Yeah, just want for the price to drop, Xbox 360 is cool BUT why pay soo much money (not even the retail price), just wait 2/3 weeks

I kind of want to wait to see the PS3

It’s definately worth the money.

I have 5/8 refferals for my xbox 360 from gratis, once I get the 8th, I’ll be offering it to whoever on gearive can pay the most.

when do you think they will sell chipped 360’s?

It’s not too far off. Reports on Joystiq say that crackers have successfully cracked the DVD 360 encryption and are sucessfully running back-up games. Funny thing is, one of the hackers who cracked said it would not have been worth it had the storage space been bigger ( HD-DVD ).

If you ask me this would is a great chance for M$ to do something to upgrade the Xbox 360 to HD-DVD to hold off crackers. It’s ridiculous that the so called “hack-proof” X360 was cracked in just months.
