first one was a first gen (2 days after release) the second just start overheating after 10 minutes. XBOX sucks. THe user interface is horrid and it filled with advertisements. I like their controller more though.

Im going back to PS3 for one last time.

word? I'll take the HD drive off your hands...

also, if anyone is interested, my SO's store (she is a store manager at a blockbuster video) has a used 360 for sale. I asked her to get me details on it when she goes to work tomorrow.

So I just finished playing GT5 Prologue Demo, the graphics are absolutely incredible. I only played it for a little while though, because the driving characteristics are pretty much the same as GT4, and every other console racing game....floaty, zero feedback, zero sense of speed, and unrealistic car control/dynamics. When oh when will the makers of Live for Speed be contracted by someone to do physics for a big budget game like Gran Turismo? It's the only game that's gotten it right.

So true. GT Legends and GTR are good, too: www.gt-legends.com and http://www.gtr-game.com/

You just bumped a 5 year old thread. I'll forgive you as your European and probably don't know any better.

No fukking way. They've had the internet in Europe for centuries, and people in Denmark speak english better than 95% of America. This guy needs to suck some serious dick around here to make up for this crap.

Besides, XBOX is way better, and Europe sucks.
