Bitch just RRO'D, D:, I WAS ABOUT TO FINISH LEFT 4 DEAD TOO D:
If you don't buy one because 'it might break' you are retarded. Yeah it'll break, but it'll be under warranty, so who the fuck cares?
I prefer PC as it has the best back catalog of all consoles. And also even tho it's under warranty it's annoying to have your console shipped out for a month or so (in worst case).

My two 360's RRoD'd themselves just from me playing GTA4 so much. However, My PS3 is still going strong, and all my cartridge-based consoles still work fine.[/QUOTE] True, my Wii hasn't had any problems in over a year, but it might be due to the fact that I play it like once a month as it's awful. Rock Band on the other hand is a game I bought a week ago, and I love it as it doesn't use the Wiimote, pinnacle of gimmickry.
[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;16937083]I agree, but back in the day, Microsoft lost money on every 360 sold. However, they did make that up through gouging customers with ridiculous game prices.[/QUOTE] Well yeah! But they are effectively giving the consumer [I]two[/I] 360's for every one sold because of their warranty program. That shit aint cheap, and cutting corners in manufacturing actually means a lot more cost down the road because of this.
I have my xbox for 3 years and it died right when my 3 year warrenty ended. :frown:
