Haha me too. Well, get an X-Box so you can practice your skilz :) Seriously, my roommate has an X-Box and currently I think it's better value than the PS3. There are just so many good games out there.

True. The graphics and controls are just a tad awkward, and of course I'm used to those of the PS3.

Agh, what a horrid idea to ask a bunch of opinionated members which of two warring company's products to buy. =P

I suppose I'll do some more research on the benefits- games, memory, avalability and such..

The biggest thing you have to ask yourself is "Do you do multiplayer gaming?" I use to play Counter-Strike religiously but I finally gave it up as I felt I never got any better and I was essentially target practice for players who had reached a skill level I could never achieve (or hackers). If multiplayer doesn't do it for you then buying a 360 for Halo 3 is a pretty foolish move as the single player is only about 8-10 hours long.

I would enjoy multiplayer. I've played it in the past, I just wasn't good enough to compare.

If I get the X-Box, though, I will definitely be playing a lot of multiplayer games/.

Also it's pretty crappy, the story line is horrible but the multiplayer more than makes up for that. Also since youre a girl (I assume you are unless boo boo is gay) and youre going to be playing online I think it's only fair to warn guys will hit on you, ALOT. Honestly you'd think some of these poeple have never interacted with a person of the opposite sex before, which probably true apart form their mother.

I've played before. I'm a female.

I've had too many rape threats on the game to be counted. I can deal with that.

I can't deal with m parents spending money on a console for which I won't buy games.

Halo 3 and GW2 can probably only hold me for so long.

And wait Boo Boo? xD

Hahahaha so true! This has happened to me before on X-Box Live. That, or they will think you're a pre-pubescent boy.

I love when guys are like, "DUDE, A GIRL PLAYING HALO?!"

Here's one of the reasons why I don't play online with strangers, atleast not with voice chat because people tend to be complete douche bags. People think because youre 800 miles away from who youre playing with it's ok to say whatever you want to them. So I tend to play in private party's with people I know. But the whole hitting on girls thing I find extremely annoying especially if we're on the same team and my teammates are too distracted by the fact that a girl plays video game to bother winning.
