Late To The 360 Party

Yeah that’s right – I finally picked up an Xbox 360.  Yes, I was aware that the 360 Elite was going to be announced and I got one anyway.  My 360 game collection currently consists of Gears Of War, Crackdown (complete with Halo 3 beta access) and Saints Row.  I have three more titles on the way from Activision (Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 3 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance) which hopefully are going to get to the office this week.   Of the games currently available in stores the only other one I want is The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.  I’m putting off picking it up because I know it’s going to try and steal my life – do I have 90+ hours?  Not to mention the extra downloadable content.

All in all the 360 is great!  The only thing that I can seem to get over is the damn Live Arcade store.  I haven’t been able to bring myself to buy anything off of it.  The whole points thing just kills it for me – not to mention that I already own many of the retro games.  I don’t get achievements from them but hey they are free.  I’m going to attempt to add some points to my account again today…
