10 Reasons Why You Should Not Buy an Xbox 360
By Kimberlee Rabenstein



1. The cost. Why anyone would pay as much as 1000 dollars for a video game system is beyond me. -- Somebody wake up Kimberlee and tell her the 360 costs $399 in the U.S. -- Kimmy wrote this today, by the way, not on launch day when eBay peeps exploited gamers. As you can see, we are off to a great start with this list.

2. The release of the new Nintendo and the new Play tation. Why buy a system when two other new ones are coming out and you could want one of those ones? -- All aboard the ROFL COPTER!!! We're sorry, what should we do Kim? Wait for the Play tation? OK, we'll wait for that Play tation to come out before we buy anything ... EVER! Holy crap, do you write for a living?

3. The system is designed to maximize HD qualities and if you don't have an HD television it's not much different than the previous Xbox. -- Slightly less inaccurate, but ridiculous nonetheless.

4. Microsoft's prying eyes are everywhere. When you use the internet connection to do any of the thousands of useless things offered on the Xbox 360 live it tracks your stats, achievements, what you're playing, how long you're playing it, with whom you're playing, if you're buying or renting games, even what time you started playing it. -- Oh noes!! We better stay in the basement, lock the doors, and never step outside. They are watching us!

5. The DVD player the Xbox 360 boasts doesn't really boast anything except mediocre-ness. It doesn't compare to the video game graphics; you're better off with your current model of DVD player. -- Wow, is she even trying? Hey Kim, we buy these game systems to play games, not watch DVDs. That part is just a bonus, mmmkay?

6. The Xbox 360 overheats easily. The amount of heat the Xbox 360 outputs is astonishing. The fans are noisy and obviously can't handle the demand of the system. -- Yes, that heat is "astonishing." Just look at all the cases of houses burning down because someone was playing marathon sessions of Dead or Alive.

7. The game titles are very limited compared to other systems. Unless you like fighting, sports, or racing, there isn't much out there for you. -- Kimmy forgets that there are also RPGs, first-person shooters, and various XBLA titles. Facts are not Kimberlee's friends.

8. In order to get all the features you have to spend more money on a hard drive or buy the more expensive version of the Xbox 360. Most people are confused with the multiple packages for sale and who wouldn't be? -- Oh what is this Xbox thingy majigger, it's soooo confusing. AHHHHH!!!

9. The power brick is larger than an Xbox game package and not that much smaller than the console itself. It is gigantic and weighs in at a hefty 6 pounds. ... that's 6 pounds plus gravity pulling on the back of your system. -- LOL, "6 pounds plus gravity," that's friggin' classic. Let's all hope the new "Play tation" can defy gravity.

10. Customer support is a joke. -- No Kimberlee, you're the joke.

There you have it... one of the best acts of FANBOYISM ever... You have to love the "Six pounds plus gravity" comment... Classic

[Addendum]

The Play tation sounds like a better console than the PS3

[Mentok]

SO APPARENTLY THERE'S A NEW SCIENTIFIC STANDARD FOR EXPRESSING WEIGHTS AND MEASURES ; FROM NOW ON, YOU HAVE TO SAY "I WEIGH ____ LBS., + GRAVITY".


I THINK IT'S ONLY FITTING THAT SHE MISSPELLED 'PLAYSTATION' THE WAY SHE DID; WHEN YOU SAY "PLAY TATION" ALOUD, YOU SOUND LIKE A F***ING RETARD.

This chick makes Topdawg look intelligent. WOW!! That's a miracle of Marathonic purportions.

Wooowww I wouldn't even say those things, I am so ashamed to be a Sony fanboy.

Dude this guy doesn't even know anything. PS3 weighs 11 pounds, and personally Sony's console will set you back a good 1,000 dollars. Not Xbox. Microsoft was nice to put all of the features in a premium box. Where Sony is just giving you 40 extra Gigs and calling it good.

The PS3 won't set you back 1000 dollars. Sony really would be in trouble if that were the case.

Kimberlee Rabenstein, however, has convinced me not to buy a 360. I found her arguments compelling, and bound in truth.

[hippie_hunter]

Instead of an Xbox 360, Playstation 3, or Wii, I will be getting the Play tation instead. Thanks kim

Well what I meanted was if you get the 600 dollar one with tax that comes out to be 636 dollars U.S. and then when you purchase a game which is supposedly 80 bucks Gamestop told me. I am planning on getting 3 games at launch. So with 636 plus 240 dollars. That equals 876 dollars. Pretty close to 1,000. Never mind though.

Stupid to get it at launch. Get it sometime after. When the bugs have been worked out. The game library has improved and gone up. And the price goes down.

[Trigger]

The games won't be 80 dollars. Never trust EB Games or Gamestop. They're owned by Satan.

[A.J.Rimmer(BSC)]

I'm a Sony fanboy, but dear GOD!

Our time shall come!

The account is my one and only. 4000 posts is a lot for a joke account.

It was however a joke post.

[Trigger]

I doubt Kimberlee and Zenien are the same. Zenien has always tried to use logic in her debates. The person making that list didn't.
