Not a supply issue more of a money issue. 



Do you really know what family means? Your brother is your rival because he likes a different gaming system than you? LOL. I would never ridducle my family (mom, dad, and most of my relatives)

I bought a second PS4 last week (15% discount at Target), put it on ebay for $510, it sold in under 2 hours.

Not sure what that has to do with anything. 


You did read how is brother bought a second xbone to sell and make a profit, but can't sell it. I gave an example of how easy it was to sell the PS4.

But yeah, what does anything have to do with anything, afterall. fucking vgchartz community . . . such a wonderful place


He was just asking, I kinda thought the same thing when I read your post being frank I think a lot of people may well have not fully taken in all of the OP's message because it seems a bit... weird. If you think the community is bad and "wonderful" in a sarcastic way you could have just left off the second paragraph and you'd be making it a nicer place for everyone.

Regarding the reselling of consoles tho, I think Sony and Microsoft are pretty much on top of the supply levels now for both machines almost everywhere (bar japan) so there wont be as much of this scalping going on for too much longer with either system.

@dsage01 - Agree completely, if this family member is real then I feel bad for him being laughed about by his brother in a forum online, tis pretty nasty.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

5 xbox 360's? What does your brother do with the consoles, use them as punchbags?!

I went through six 360's and take very good care of all my systems. 360's used to break down alot, who knew right? The sixth time was the only time I had to spend money to fix my 360 unless you count my 360 Elite purchase that replaced my broken OG 360.

OT: You seem like you sarcastically feel bad for your brother because he's a fan of Xbox.

What I can't understand why Sony went with 2.4ghz wJust. Gonly ) radio .. except to make itP.. while XB1 offers 5Ghz ( and 2.4Ghz ).. Newer routers offer 5Ghz channels and on my Asus Im able to get far superior connections speeds.


What I can't understand is why anyone would use WiFi on a game console to begin with....unless you're stuck with the WiiU's lack of low-latency ethernet

Damn you, Nintendo.....

To have a portable ms box?? Or lazy to pass a cable? Or horrible planner... Or just grasping at straws for something xbone is better. Convenient enough no mention for 360 lack of any wifi.

Relax, please. Not everything is a big conspiracy, and yes, Ethernet is LOADS better in terms of Quality of Service and packet latency. 

If anyone is grasping at straws, it appears to be you looking for something to contradict me on...

I like those that admit to being PC/PS3 while the Xbox fan just had Xbox. So he was a dedicated fan that got his fill from just one console and you personally admit that PS alone cant satisfy your needs as a gamer. Jus saying our differences run deeper then many think.



so, your bro has 5 360s because he bought some of them so that he didn't have to wait for a replacement after they got a rrod?

doesn't sound as if it will really hurt him financially if he can't sell his xbox one for a profit and only for a small loss so that i find your thread little bit confusing.

sounds as if he is more the kind of guy who laughes about 100 bucks or whatever he will lose.



Now if only we could have gone Short on the value of a Wii-U system, that would have been a gold mine.
