This. We're hardcore motherfuckers!!!!
Guys that own 360s are the same kind of guys that would smack eachother in the balls and twist eachothers nipples.
Even though you wouldn't want to admit to doing it at first or think you would be into doing those things, you eventually start doing it and like doing it. When you start, you just want to do it all the time.

That is a very weird analogy... thankfully I am a 360 owner that does NOT do those things. I mean, those kinda got old after middle school.

Just like the PS2 had the best attach rate last generation (not counting the Dreamcast as the first, sorry) and the Saturn before it, right?
The main reason the 360 has such a great attach rate is because it has a huge variety of cheap games. Like I've said before, I got Lost Odyssey for 30 bucks and Dead Rising for 20. The Wii has lots of cheap games too, but being the highest selling console (with a casual focus to boot) lowers the attach rate a good bit. This is why we see so many old 360 games still selling well years after they came out. That, and the great exclusives and multiplatform titles.

Ahhh.... I see you've got a 360.

I have made my supervisor drop down to his knees, I got him so good. I made some other supervisor throw up. If you wear sweat pants to work, you made a mistake.
I dunno why people still think the 360 is cheaper.
I replaced my RRoD Xenon with a new Jasper recently...
If my purchase had been a new one:
$200, console
$100, 60 GB HDD
$100, wireless adaptor
$15 rechargable controller pack + cord
--------------
$415, unless you want to pump your controller with AA batteries constantly ($15 recharge kit is a steal compared to the AAs)
...pretty sure that's more than the price of a 80GB PS3, and with the PS3, you get a "free" Blu-Ray player, after you consider XBox 360's price. A HDD and wireless adapter are pretty freaking commonplace purchases -- I cannot imagine a serious 360 owner without a HDD (that would suck... no serious number of savegames, no demos, no HDD installs), and not many people care to install wired networking in their homes these days.

You can shop around and get the wireless adaptor for cheaper, why would you buy a console and a harddrive seperately? Batterys don't get eaten up as much as you thin, and wireless being more common than wired??!! I don't think so ... stop flaimbaiting kid.

Umm... The HDD + console costs the same as the HDD+console combo? And do you have any idea what AA batteries cost, as well as how much shelf space retail outlets devote to wireless over wired networking?
I guess that sore spot attracted the rabid fanboys who defy logic to make their arguments. Sorry to all, if I drew those posters into this fine thread.
