You know why they call it the Xbox 360, right?

Cause when you see it, you'll turn 360 degrees and moonwalk away

I just bought myself an "Elite" I got the pack from EB games - 120gb (Are all elites 120gb?) Halo 3 (Which was out of stock) Mass effect lego star wars and kung fu panda, - Needless to say i traded that shit in before i had even paid for it and got Fable II instead. As Halo 3 was out of stock they gave me "Turok" i remember the old game (Was it on the N64?) - I didnt trade that in tho i have a feeling it wont be very good.

I used to own a 360 - around a year ago, had it for 4 months and sold it to buy a PS3 - had my ps3 for 4 months and sold that for.. Camera Stuff (I dont even remember what stuff) But i wanted it at the time.

For a while i was happy with the PS3 and even posted on this forum (I dont know what thread) Saying i prefferred it over the 360. Tho the PS3 had horrible screen tearing which was always really annoying.

But im a former Fable, Ninja Gaiden and Gears of War fan and with the releases of Fable II Ninja Gaiden II and GoW II i thought it time to invest in another xbox.

Also - i enjoy playing online rather than by myself. And it seems that the XBOX is slightly better for that. Tho i enjoyed playing the PS3 online. Wait times could be a hassle (Could of been due to timezone.). Me and a good friend compared our wait times for the same game and the wait time for the PS3 was alot longer.

Since its Christmas soon iv decided to treat it as a present.. to myself and only open it on Christmas day.

Im only a Recreational player but once its all set up ill post my gamertag and see if anyone from JF wants to play.

I really want to play Fable II, but alas I do not have a Xbox.

However, for the PS3 screen tearing, did you buy a HDMI cable for it? I have no such problems with my PS3.

fable 2 is a definite upgrade from fable with its larger map but its still lacking in many ways, so don't expect much of a difference.

holy shit its awesome. the land is much bigger, you can do more things in it and there arent any fences like in the first one. i just started playing it but its really cool.

The game im currently playing though is LEFT 4 DEAD. anyone else play it yet?

I had always wondered if the screen tearing would go away if i had bought component cables and used them instead of the HDMI cable. - But then i sold it.

After having both for around the same time and having 8 or so games on both consoles i decided i liked the 360 more.

Tho the reason i sold my first xbox to get a PS3 was for LBP (Which was supposed to be released Sep 07) But now after LBP has been released GoW2, Ninga Gaiden 2, and Fable 2 have all been released.

+ my Cousin just picked up a PS3 with LBP - but i havent played it yet.

Ill keep my 360 till the release of microsofts new console. I dont think ill be selling any of them anymore. Tho Photography Equipment can be expensive...
Fair enough. The main reason I bought a PS3 is so I can get ready for FFXIII:Versus.

But I've never experienced screen tearing at all.
