I would get one at $199, and no it is not becasue I am jealous. While I pass just on the price alone ($600 was obscene) it is certainly worth it more than comparably priced products(iPhone).
Now that it has won the format war it is attractive as a Blu-Ray player/ Linux media box.
There are good games but as someone who was not overwhelmed by his PS2 Iwill stick with my Wii for now. Once FFXIII hits and there is a great back-catalog available used and as greatest hits then I can justify another game system.
I just don't have the time for another system right now, but as I usually get multiple systems per generation I am sure I will be getting bored before the next generation hits.
I also expect that software BC will be completed and they will move to 1 SKU maybe a slim version. That would be much easier for my wife to take squeezed into the entertainment center.
As a side note I would not pay $99 for a 360.
Final* Word on Game Delays:
The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.
Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.
Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.
