    Good God Casey!@#!@!# OPEN IT, PLEASE!@#!@

    FOR YOUR WIFE'S SAKE

    You'll enjoy it. There's a bunch of here that can attest too it.

      Yeah, but I always do this. I'm just very conservative by nature, so I always think twice on expensive items. I bought it from Costco, so even if I opened it, it's not like they won't take it back.
      Well if you were so conservative why did you purchase it and walk out of the store to begin with? You might as well open it; I mean think about the guys who want a 360 but can't find one.

      Just go ahead and open it already, sure I got my 360 and I was flat broke for a month, but it was well worth it.

      And for the "wait for the PS3" crowd, why wait? Next-gen gaming is already here; why wait 8 more (possibly more due to potential shortages) for a PS3 when nothing is known about it as of yet.

        Bacardi, bro, I'd say go for it. In my honest opinion, Oblivion (if it's your type of game) is more than worth the system. It's an absolutely awesome experience. I generally hate that type of game, but I'm still in awe 120 hours later :y4:

        If that's not your type of game, there are quite a few other good games out for it. I'd say go for it. And Casey... open it up dude. It's Costco.. if you change your mind afterwards, they'll take it back. Test that baby out

          I believe he already has Oblivion for the PC.

          It comes down to the games, if there is games that interest you, then maybe it's time to "Jump In".

            If NCAA football is the main game your holding out for, then I say just buy the 360, the PS3 version of NCAA Football isn't going to be any better then the Xbox 360 version, they be really the same.

              I bought one a few days ago and am extremely satisfied with it. It is awesome. Downloaded the Battlefield II demo and it blew me away.

              Go get one now!!

                Well with the recent PS3 news I find it offically to be a weak *** joke so I say open the 360.

                      They will be in a sense since the game is going to be built for the 360 and then ported to the PS3.

                          Now hey now... Don't call someone a ****** because they have a different thought process.

                          However, casey, I say take the plunge. You bought it, right? Why let it sit and decay instead of playing it?

                            A ****** who has family obligations and isn't sure he should be spending a large amount of cash, but realized there was only one 360 bundle left at Costco so he wanted to think about it while still having it, should he decide the finances would allow the purchase.

                            And I have pretty much decided to open it later tonight. I'll just have to tell my wife it's her fault for encouraging me.

                                So i should open the box and contents while driving home from work on the turnpike during rush hour? What good would opening the damn box at work actually be without being able to actually use it? How bout i wait till i get home and then open it?

                                What kind of ****** jumps to conclusions without knowing the rest of the details?
