    I'm already a fan of the xbox over sony but this new one really looks like it could put some hurt on sony.

    Thoughts?

    I am still happy as a pig in mud with my old xbox, I have no need for the 360. My old one is hacked to hell with XBMC, all the mame games, nintendo games, dvd2xbox, karaoke about 200 movies and a lot more. It would take a lot for me to switch. After all, if I cant play duck hunt, I dont want it :p

    lol, duck hunt. I just got several of those damn sounds stuck in my head. Man those were good times.

    I agree Henny, I see no need to upgrade either but you gotta admit that some of these gamers are going to buy it just to say they have it. Seems the hype alone will sell quite a few.

    I am enjoying my new PSP, can even bring up DP on it on the wireless lan:p
    Superb graphics from such a small handheld device, I have my old PS2 but I dont think it will see the light of day now, I am sure the 360 will be awesome but I think the portable PSP has made a major advance.

    See I guess I have never been grabbed by the hype, I am sitting here typing this on an 800$ gaming machine, I have a PC, I don't really see the need for a gaming system, although I do remember rocking the contra on NES, that kicked so much ass

    up up down down left right left right B A start ;)

    It's amazing the crap the human brain retains, that was 20 years ago...

    I read another story were only 2% of japanese people were looking forward to the new xbox, as opposed to like 70% for the PS3. Crazy.
