Those weren't what I was thinking of, but November is going to be great

CoD Black Ops

AC Brotherhood

GT 5

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit

I would love to just buy myself a new console... but there are really better things I should be spending my money on

I actually got the console for free (well, I had to pay $100 to upgrade to the 250GB bundle instead of the 4GB bundle). 


How?!?!?!?

Work ^^

I had my Kinect preoredered since early September  but they surprised us last week and said we were all going to get a 4GB Kinect bundle and we could upgrade to the 250GB if we wanted.  Since that was only $100 I went ahead and did it. 

The only bad part is that I lost my $30 credit Amazon was going to give me but I think I'll live. 

So that puts my free console count at:

  • 80GB BC PS3 (techincally free, I cleaned out my giant movie collection and rather than buy more movies with the credit and be in the same problem, I just got the PS3)
  • 40GB Spiderman Movie PS3 Bundle (traded that in for store credit since I already had the above PS3)
  • 4GB Xbox 360 Kinect Bundle (spent $100 to upgrade to the 250GB bundle)

I I had only started work about 6 months earlier I would have gotten a free Wii too.

I hear you, but having just recently bought Fallout: New Vegas and Fable 3 (haven't even had a chance to play Fable 3 yet!) and with Kinect and COD:BO out in November, my wallet would actually be cool with November taking a little while longer to get here...

Happy early birthday though, and get me job where you work. Thanks.

I forgot you worked for a games company, getting free consoles is certainly a decent perk to have... as well as having a (probably?) enjoyable job

I have had to pay for all my consoles with money earned by very hard work nagging my parents for money

Recently upgraded from juts preordering Kinect to getting the 250GB bundle and one of the fancy new controllers.  November is going to be an awesome month especially since it's also my birthday at the end of the month and I can get some more fun stuff.  I feel like Cartman in the Wii episode of South Park. 

Guess I'll have to keep myself entertained with Red Dead until then...

i'm not nitpicking either but why do u get another X360 if you already have one. Wouldnt the standalone Kinect device be enuff?
