Consider yourslef lucky for having 360 last so many years.

The old 360 is almost certain to fail, many people that bough launch already had to send for repair 4-5 times.

Buy the 360 SLIM or change for Sony side with the almight proven PS3 slim

that can be:

1) getting mature , so lets things will wow like did in infancy.

2)begining of depression.

or both

I myslef prefer happy or/and funny experiences.

My favorite final fantasy music and moments are from these branch.

Vivi, quina, moogle etc

The crash bandicoot you liked were made by naughty dog, one of the best developers in the world, same that made Uncharted series.

Unfortunelly now activision owns the publishing rights for crash banndicoot, and they have only released garbage crash games.

Your only hope is to keep playing the old ps1 games (crash1,2,3 and CTR and even crash bash) or try the activision ones from psp, ps2, 360 and wii.

But you might as well forget about the era when crash was even better than mario, those day are over.

Peharps some day naughty dog will create a new platform mascot.

This old news. 4 yeays old to be exactly.

Microsoft and Epic cooperation and Microsoft exclusivity as publishing rights is well know.

But I don't think gears has the influence it had on 2006-2008, I myself couldn't care less for gears.

Yeah, pure speculation. In realiy is $199

Ha... POP is sandbox?

LOL... hilarious... the game alsmot plays itself, that how linear and restrictive it is.

Because:
1) the psp version is expected to sell less, so they needed to have a higher price to maintain profit margin.

2) Psp was harder to make, since is way less powerfull.

buy a ps3 phat with backwards compatibility.

Then buy:

heavy rain

Little big planet

modnation racers

gta4 and episodes of liberty city

play:

left 4 dead 1 and 2

metro 2033

borderlands

dragon age origins

Batman arkham asylum

dirt 2
