[QUOTE="TheDanwich"][QUOTE="doberman20"] [QUOTE="PSfanboy101"]okay so we all know there is all gonna be a new xbox in 2010 BUT is it going to be an upgraded xbox 360 like the elite OR is it gonna be a whole new xbox and by that i mean xbox 3. One more thing, what are your opinons on BioShock on the paystation? (i forgot the L on purpose)decepticondevil
how is it the paystation when xbox cost more than anything for extra stuff you need to play?
What extra stuff?? I bought my $400 Xbox 360.... and I play with it all the time. I haven't had to buy anything else to play it.
Well, if you want to use your console on a wireless network (like many people do... I would even venture to say the majority) you have to spend an extra $100 on the network adapter. That alone makes the 360 more expensive than the PS3.
Even the freakin' Wii has built-in wirless... it's bs. I refuse to spend $100 on M$'s adapter so I'm using the netgear one I bought for my original Xbox. It works, but I have to do a connection test every time I start the console up... I guarantee M$ could make the majority of ethernet adapters fully compatable with a simple firmware update, but they won't do it because they want everyone to shell out for an overpriced adapter (seriously, $100 is a complete ripoff).
When I bought the 360 I thought it had built-in wireless... honestly, if I had known it didn't I would have bought a PS3, but that's my fault for assuming it was a next-gen system and not doing my research (yes, "next gen" means more to me than graphics... though I seem to be in a minority with that opinion).
Also, $50 a year for online vs free online. You can argue about which has the best online all day, but the simple fact is that, yes, the Xbox is actually more expensive... unless you just want to play single player or split screen all the time. If that's the case, then you're right... you don't have to pay for anything else besides games. But the 360 is all about the online, and using that online has additional fees that the PS does not have.
I just bought a 30 foot long ****** ethernet cable to connect my 360 to me wireless Linksys router,cos of the high priced MS wireless adapter.Picked the cable up for approx.12 dollars.Works fine all the time+ran it under carpet so you cant see it anyway.
