"The recently discounted to $299 20GB Xbox 360 models are now showing up at retailers across North America at even lower price points due to the fact that the 60GB model also dropped its price to $299. Essentially making the 20GB a bad deal. As a result, Best Buy and Amazon.com are currently selling the 20GB 360 model for $259 while Futureshop in Canada has discounted the 20GB model to $199 and is bundling it with Gears of War and DOA: Xtreme 2. Happy shopping!"

With RFD and CAG, there is like a 0.2% of me getting that one.

Aswell, I thought it was obvious I was pro-Sony? I do frequent the Sony Defense Force.

I played Halo the other night and that was the first time I had turned mine on in like a week. lol
I'm just really burnt out on all the games I have right now. Can't wait until the 14th when Rock Band 2 comes out. I'll finally have something new and good to play, and then not long after that the carp holiday flood of amazing games starts.

lol at 360 relaunch rumor, if that's true Microsoft just sprayed a lot of repellent to keep me away from buying a 360. Honestly, who'd buy 5 hours of G4 for an infomercial? If Sony were to pull that I'd no longer play console games.

Microsoft revealed the 360 on MTV.
I don't really see this rumor as being too far-fetched and I think you're just being an carp for no reason about this because you have some sort of fanboy vendetta against Microsoft.
Have you heard the things they are supposed to be announcing on this special? Some huge carp like an exclusive Assassin's Creed 2, Mass Effect 2 as well as some big DLC stuff with Halo 3 and GTA IV and two new Halo games. Not exactly light weight carp.
Given the rough image that the 360 has because of the RROD and other issues, I think a console "re-launch" is a great idea, especially now that the bugs have been ironed out in the latest batches of systems. Besides, do you really think it will be 5 hours long? Really? If there's any part of that rumor I don't believe its the length.
And as for everyone who I'm sure has no carp clue what we're talking about as Takao likes to be vague and cryptic:

Different, MTV launch was more important because you know, that was the actual launch information for the system, and it was less then an hour, not the rumored 5.
And lol at the GTA IV, and Halo 3 stuff, that's like Nintendo saying there is more Mario and Zelda in the pipeline for the Wii, oh wait... I guess that date for the GTA IV stuff is important since it's been anticipated, but Halo, well I've shown my opinion towards shooters.
It just bugs me that they'd rather do this in some Private Event hosted by them, and only them. They said they wanted to increase their European exposure, so what do they do? Skip out on Leipigz(?) Games Convention. It's also lame that this is rumored to be days after TGS, although I suspect the Japanese don't give two flying Chocobo's rears about Halo, Assasin's Creed, and Western RPGs.
To be fair, I do expect Sony to do something similar (except probably not buying a channel for a bit) come February/March.

Why? The first Assassin's Creed was horrible.
RE: Gaming Random Thoughts - Roan - Sep. 09, 2008
Opinions on Assassin's Creed are notoriously varied.
Personally I really liked the game. It was repetitious, sure, but overall it was a great game.
Tao or whatever the carp your name is now Wrote:Different, MTV launch was more important because you know, that was the actual launch information for the system, and it was less then an hour, not the rumored 5.

And the announcement of an entirely new user interface isn't important? The announcement of additional episodes for a game that recently sold 10 million units and of which is exclusive to the console isn't important? Additional content for Halo 3, arguably the 360's flagship title, isn't important? As you pointed out, you are clearly biased against shooters, and if you ask me Microsoft/360 as a whole, so your opinion doesn't really amount to much. Get your carp head out of the clouds. If you think this TV spot is going to be 5 hours long you're carp insane and clinging to that part of the rumor simply because its something you can knock Microsoft with.
This is nothing like Nintendo announcing a new Mario or Zelda, because unlike Nintendo Microsoft is actually going to, you know, show people things, in detail, rather than just mention them in passing at one of the worst press conferences in recent industry history.
And despite your feelings about Assassin's Creed, there's no denying that it was a huge success at retail and securing an exclusive sequel to the game would be a huge deal for Microsoft because as we all know, businesses like to make money.
For the record, your little snide remarks about Microsoft "buying out" everything are really starting to grate on my nerves. It'd be different if they were just going out and making this TV special just to sit there and trumpet their own success and rest on their laurels, but they clearly aren't. They're going to be presenting the newly redesigned 360 user interface, as well as a slew of new games and content for existing games that people won't be able to find on other systems, as well as targeting said info at what they clearly know is their core demographic by doing so on G4TV.
How is this a bad move, in any sense?
RE: Gaming Random Thoughts - Spaceman - Sep. 09, 2008
Roan, it's a bad move because it makes Sony and Nintendo look bad. Obviously making competitors look bad is bad for you. I mean, it's not like the point of business is to promote yourself and make monies.
RE: Gaming Random Thoughts - To - Sep. 09, 2008
Didn't they present this 360 Dashboard announcement at E3?
They've only had the exclusive GTA IV content for like a year now (hey wait, I guess they pulled a Nintendo). I still laugh, I recognize Halo's importance to Microsoft, which is why it isn't a surprise to me that it's getting more stuff. I just find it a bit much to going to certain extremes to just do this. Yes, new games are the foundation of most consoles, but announcements like this kill off things like the X[insert year here] Events, E3, Games Convention, PAX, TGS and other events. But hey, I guess if it gets more eyeballs looking for an Xbox 360, good for them I guess.

RE: Gaming Random Thoughts - To - Sep. 10, 2008
Damn you ear infection! If I wasn't at the doctor's for so long I could probably not got a 360 for $2.99 at Rogers Video (Terrific pricing error, for no one sadly).
