I recently smashed my 360...

o.k. it was a dumb move but i smashed it after getting mad at Rainbow six:vegas, i need some info on the "new 360"...when,what,how much?please

April 29th I believe.  $480 retail price.crck

I suggest you take that money and invest in some anger management classes or perhaps you should take up Yoga. In fact, if you do want to continue gaming, i don't think a 360 is the system for you, you need some Mario, Warioware, and Cooking Mama in your life, get a Wii. Stay away from violent games.Zerostatic0

Unless you really need another 100gig for downloading movies and/or really really like the color black, there's really no reason to spend more for the elite. Especially if you're just going to smash it.whoisryanmack

man, I've smashed controllers (I stopped that thankfully) but never a console... get one of those punching dummies or play with a friend who doesn't mind you punching him.

better yet throw your controller into a couch... that's usually safe.

yeah i get mad easily, and actually i had that rage boiling up inside me for so long, it was a joy to smash my 360. i won't smash the black oneghost89x

Must be nice just to waste $400.00 on a whim eh? You dont deserve to be a gamer. Go on Dr. Phil and take of your rage. Seriously though Why would you smash it over a game? This has got to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard and I feel dumber just looking at this thread let alone posting in it.

lmao and no do not get a wii bcuz when u get mad again u will most likely throw the controller at the tv, which means you will also have to buy a new tv. I suggest spend some of the money on anger managment and spend the rest on a lower-costing console so when u get pissed off it wont cost much to replace....like a nintendo64?

VGA does... you're not wrong, but you're right for the wrong reasons. The bonus of a digital signal is that the pictures are noticably crisper and have better color (accuracy, saturation). I'm not getting an Elite because the HDMI isn't worth the money or hassle to me as of right now... if my 360 fritzes out or if I get super pissed and smash it up (unlikely) then I'll get an Elite then maybe.

Go Bolts, btw... playoff spot clinched, dude, and Carolina's sittin' at home like a fat chick on prom night.

BTW, nobody on this entire board can beat Silver Surfer for the NES. That is the hardest f*cking game I have ever played. I had a vendetta to beat it, and I still could not. Nor have I ever met anyone who has beaten the game. I've only met other people who couldn't believe how hard it was. I swear, not even the developers of the game can beat it. If Rainbow Six make you break your 360, Silver Surfer will make you light your house on fire.

You are definitely right about games being much easier than they used to be. Just go look at the reviews for the old NES games on Virtual Console... they knocked points off of Kid Icarus because these game reviewer n00bs whose first system was an N64 can't get to the second stage. Or Super Ghouls N Ghosts is "sadistic" because the reviewer sucks at it. Back in the day, we didn't have checkpoints every few feet like in Gears Of War... we didn't HAVE Gears Of War. We had Commando... one shot, you die. And the enemies are somewhere in the infinite range because they continuously respawn.

The reduction in the level of difficulty could be attributed to games being more realistic... i.e. handling more realistically and placing you in more plausible situations. I don't care what your life is like, it's not as bad as Arthur's from Ghosts N Goblins. So you battled teenage angst and depression, hm? He battled LUCIFER.

Unless the controller bounces off the cushin and hits your plasma TV instead.....lol The safest place for a controller for people with anger problems is being superglued to their hand :)

You smashed your X360? NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember my nephew once pulled the game out of his NES so fast it flew out of his hand and dented the wall about 10 feet  behind him. I don't recall the game though.

To the origional poster, stay away from games that punish you too much for dying by repeating long sequences, that is the most irritating crap. Maybe try playing an RPG like Oblivion where you can save often.
