WOW sounds awsome.

HD - DVD cool there will he HD DVD's
The new hard disk hmmm did you mean hard drive? if so then brilliant I've filled mt hard - drive.
More than 50 new xbox games compatible what do yopu mean new xbox games?.
And I'll do more later

WOW? are u talking about WorldofWarcraft? If so, i guess it is cool. The idea to put this huge mmorpg onto the 360, but i dont think it'll turn out that great due to only a few buttons on the control, compared to a whole keyboard. WoW will need a lot of hotkeys, and im not sure how the 360 is going to do that.

Yea i meant hard drive (100gb) sounds like a good idea, but u see how much the 20gb is? $100!!!! The weird thing is that the ps3 will be 60gb, but it'll be no more than $100 cuz of the size of the harddrive or something. I dont understand that :/ y is microsoft's harddrive more expensive than the ps3's?? gay...

"More than 50 new xbox games compatible" it sounds like more original XBox games added to the BC list. Either that it or it means 50 more xbox360 games (including arcadegames) will be added before June (rumor)

By the way, the more bandwith, is that good??
"- The bandwidth of the server will be increased by 5."

The bandwidth - what are you talking about?.
Kameo 2 Rare said they were making 4 games Via pinatas 1 Kameo's 2 and Banjo kazoie must be 3 but what about 4 hmmmmm?.

Hmmmm the price is going down is that a good thing?,
Why it's good:
1. Pepole go on about how expensive it is that'll shut them up now they can moan at sony 'cause I heard the ps3 will cost $400 I'm not sure how much it is but it sounds like a lot.
2. More pepole will be on xbox live.
3. More games will come out for the 360 - If the price of the 360 goes down more pepole will buy 360's then the 360 will become more popular and more companys might start making games for the 360.

Why the price going down isn't a good thing:
1. Everyone will go on about how the ps3's more expensive because it's better.
2. I paid full price for my 360 and everyone else will get it for less.

Hey there's nothing about the price of the games going down .

"Bandwith of the server will increase by 5" i dont really kno wat that means, but is bandwith good? in general.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good:
-The price going down for the console will make more people want to buy it.
-More people(sony fans) will be able to experience xbox360 and xboxlive if they buy it.
-Even more cheaper than the ps3.

Bad:
-Ill be pissed cuz i got it for $400....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I dont care if ppl say "it's cheaper cuz it sucks and the ps3 is more expensive cuz it's better." They can all take it in the ass

[Scott croft]

YEA!!!!
Hmmmm a webcam what do you use that for, I hope there will be games for it, games like the eyetoy games.

[mistA.WEEd]

webcam is to let other ppl online see u, but they cant hear u, unless there is like a microphone attached. But that's wat the headset is for. I hear there is going to be a game for it, but that's all i kno.

[Scott croft]

I hope there's a game for it, if there is a game for it then I might buy it but other than that I'd rather buy the hard - drive.

Before October the Xbox 360 will be virtual console, playing all sega games. OOOOOH so Sonic will be on the 360 cool.

[lpxxfaintxx]

Wow, that is a pretty hot deal (if it is real. This would totally make Sony make a run for their money.
