Forums - Microsoft - Should i get a Xbox 360 now or wait a liitle longer?

I'll have more than enough money this Thursday to buy a Xbox360, i was planning on this for a while now, but i just myself a 42 inch LCD HDTV. I'm paying it in payments, but haven't really started. They gave me 6 months of no interest. I'm planning on paying it off in about 2 or 3 months. Should i wait those three months or just go ahead and buy the Xbox 360 tomorrow and buy one or two games to last me all the way through May or April?

 

i have a Wii with 20 Games and a DS with 15 games. So i could live without the Xbox 360 for a couple of months.

i'd say wait and hope for a price cut in a few months when the 360 sales plummet in the after holiday period.



end of '08 predictions: wii - 43 million,  360 - 25 million, ps3 - 20 million

 

Games I've beat recently: Super Mario Galaxy, Knights of the Old Republic, Shadow of the Collossus

 

Proud owner of wii, gamecube, xbox, ps2, dreamcast, n64, snes, genesis, 3DO, nes, atari, intellivision, unisonic tournament 2000, and gameboy

well i was going to get Halo and Mass Effect. Maybe Call of Duty 4, but i don't want to spend all my money.



then wait theyll get cheaper next year



N64 is the ONLY console of the fifth generation!

bet with *no one yet* that the combined first week of Monster Hunter 3 in america and europe will be 600k or more! winner changes looser sig and avatar for two months!

i have a ton of games i could play mean while. I got Zack and Wiki and i'm barely starting it. I also have about 15 games i need to pass, Wii only.

Id wait for Leo-j to convince you to buy a ps3 before making any decisions...>_>

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I would definitely wait....supposeably the bundles are going away and many are predicting a price drop around GTA4's release (since the first price drop was minimal)

Anyhow, I think MS will probably do a price drop in the next few months...but just my opinion.

Lol, then again, I don't know if I could stand waiting to play Lost Odyssey for a few extra months!



Well, I now only have access to a PS3 & 360...Plan on buying a wii soon (lol, if I can ever find one available!) but will probably wait until some of the major RPG's come out like Dragon Quest & Tales, etc.

Anyhow, I'm so far behind in games to play that I'm not in a huge hurry (lol, haven't even gotten a chance to finish God of War II yet!) 

Get the Xbox 360 in 5 months when its at $179.99 I might even buy one as cheap as the psp.
