    I know man, this was my original plan. But I only have $600 total to spend on everything. The price of the console is going to eat up alot of that and I can only afford 1-2 games.

    I saved up for the last 3 months for this purchase. Sack lunches and no dank for the opportunity to go Next Gen. lol

      I don't think you can really get next-gen without HDTV.

          Sure it's a next-gen console, but it won't take you long to tire of 1-2 games. You'd be ripping yourself off, the only way that is practical is using gamefly.

            You got a point Erv. I was really jonesing to play NBA 2K6 and the 2K7 when its released this fall.

            I love BBall and wanted to play with the tweaks they made to the 360 version. I was hoping that would hold me over months at a time. I only get to play video games a couple hours a day at the most.

            Phucking Sony man. I swear those fools have dropped the ball so many times with the PS3, you'd think they were impersonating Kmame Brown.

            Before E3 I didn't want to buy a Xbox 360, but with a price point of 599.99 for the decent SKU, they priced me out man!.

              If your TV has RED/BLUE/GREEN Inputs then use the Component Cables the Premium 360 comes with. If you dont have RED/BLUE/GREEN Inputs, then get yourself the S-VIDEO Cables. This will give you a better picture than the Yellow Composite Input.
