why would you want to buy a new xbox when you already have one?

why would you call it boring just because it doesn't have wifi? if you think its boring then whats the point of buying a new one?

why are you asking about Halo when your gametag clearly shows you've already got them?

if you're actually serious, then I suggest keep your money and use them to buy more games for your current xbox.

i mean it's booring without online

and i havn't played it, my bro has ive only played forza and ufc he uses it a bit more then me and he already traded it in for saints row so i never got a chance

The 360 slim has WiFi built in so no need to buy the adapter.

nahh i ment for my elite

for my elite if i brought a wifi adapter gears 3 and kinect it would cost around $370=$380

or if i sell the elite and buy the slim i would get it for $240

360 Slim has built in Wifi that is a great added feature and will save $70+ on an adapter. A laptop or modem + ethernet cable were cheap ways of connecting XBox 360 online.

Sell the Elite and the new XBox deal will only cost you around $200.

im prob gonna sell the psmove also i don't even use it and it could get more $$ off it with the games to. 2 controllers with eye toy camera and sports champions and raquet sports should take $100 of it since i got it for over $200 a month ago

alright, in that case I think you should go ahead and do it. free live trial that comes with the new console should help you make up your mind about whether its worth it or not. and you can always sell kinect if you don't like it.

No. Buy another PS3 and you can pwn everyone by saying that you don't just have one, but two of them.

i already have 2 ps3's :D

I don't know all the pricing in Australia. So I'm guessing 90$ is for the 12 month subscription. In U.S. its $60, but I can always get them cheaper on Amazon.com and other various sites. Recently I found a deal that got me a 12 month subscription for $35. 42% off!

I got my slim console last year and I love the built in WiFi. Plus it has extra USB ports. It also powers the kinect without having to have a power cord to an outlet directly from the kinect, which you would need with your Elite.

1. Kinect: You will get different opinions from everyone. In my opinion I really enjoy Kinect. It currently doesn't have a very big library of game and half of the games are meh. Some of them I consider very fun like: Kinect Sports, Child of Eden, Dance Central, Fruit Ninja along with a few others. There will be more games coming out this fall/early next year that use Kinect that look like will add quite a bit to the game. Some of those include Forza Motorsports 4, Mass Effect 3, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Kinect Sports Season 2, and some others. You also can use it for motion controls to watch movies, navigate kinect dashboard, ect.

So all in all Kinect use appears like it will get better with time. I think its best use is as an addative feature to games rather than games only playable with Kinect.

2. Again its about personal preference. I enjoy Xbox Live more for the cross game chat/Xbox Live party chat, community feel, interesting adds, Last.FM, ect. One nice thing about Xbox Live Gold is that at least they offer deals every week on content for being a gold member. Of course PSN plus offers deals on content as well. PSN Plus is free so that is a big factor they have going for them. In the end its personal preference. to me finding a deal around $40 (U.S.) a year is worth it to use the features of Xbox Live Gold.

3. Both are great, Yes! If you really love shooters then you need to play both of those franchises. They are a great deal of fun. You also said you like Racing. Forza would be a great game to try out as well especially Forza 4 with the improvements and Kinect usage addition.

These are my own opinions. I'm sure there are plenty of other people on this site that would say just stick with PSN. I will say it sounds like a lot of your friends just use PS3 for gaming so that is something you need to consider. I hope I was able to help from my experience.
