Buy Me An Xbox 360

A couple of days ago I finally got some hands on time with the Xbox 360 (well, after implying several times that this kid was hogging it by playing ‘King Kong’ – he finally turned around “You wanna play?”) over at the local F.Y.E. After fumbling around the interface for a few moments (the joystick seemed very very sensitive) I made it in to ‘Call of Duty 2′ ( http://www.callofduty.com/ ). It was nice. Very nice for a console. I’m looking forward to clocking some more play time at the end of the month.

I wish I had paid more attention to which HDTV/monitor Microsoft used on the kiosk I want to check the specs on it. Never mind, I think I found it “Samsung 23 in. LCD TV/HDTV Monitor with PC/DVD/TV Inputs” Model #LN-R238 and at $900 or so it’s a steal. What I really want to see is how the 360 looks on a non-HD television. So, yeah I’m sold on the Xbox 360 – I was already planning on getting one. I’m waiting till after the new year though. But I may get the treat of playing ‘Dead or Alive 4′ ( http://www.tecmoinc.com/ ) and ‘Perfect Dark Zero’ ( http://perfectdarkzero.com/ ) down in Jersey on Mikey’s birthday. I’ve even signed up for my Xbox account over at Xbox.com ( http://www.xbox.com ). If you don’t already have an account go grab it and reserve your nick before someone grabs it on you…
