Hi All, I'm looking to get a 360, I already own a Wii, Ds, Psp, Ps2, Xbox ... I'm willing to get rid of my Xbox and my Psp and maybe my Ps2 and obviously not paying to much for a 360 ...

I'de rather find one locally (WA) ...

Anyone any advice ??

um, yeah i'd get one, I'm getting one too. target has an xbox 360 arcade with a free game (crash of the titans) for $400 which I'm gonna get. If you want the pro version, then big w has it for $500, and kmart has it for $530.

Also 360 has the biggest and best selection of games, and whilst ps3 is certainly getting some nice games this year, 360 is getting more. btw what games do u want to get for your 360?

You should get a PC instead.

Why get a 360 then? Most 360 games are either parallel-produced as PC releases, or come to the PC anyway when the time-exclusive contract ends (albeit those come with no optimisation to speak of).

And then consider the myriad other uses a PC has that a 360 doesn't. You need a PC anyway — may as well pay the cost of a 360 and its accessories (or thereabouts!) to put a good graphics card in it.

the console Vs PC debate in the end turns out to be a matter of preference personally I prefer consoles and would prefer a 360 (also cheaper but you already have the PC) that's just me though

Ok to clarify ...

1> I use my Pc for video editing Music & Internet.
2> I Have a massive plasma HD
3> Gt Iv is not coming to Pc yet.
4> Event if my Pc is Ok, some game wouldn't run as smoothly as on 360

That is why I want a 360 ...

Nothing beats throwing in the game and it running straight away. I am a console man, but do give some PC games a go when they actually decide to work well for me...

I think you've basically sold yourself now all that's left is to go out and get one (and there's the little matter of finding the money to do so).

But when GTAIV comes to PC, you can mod it.

And I also have large TVs. A 100cm Bravia in the living room and a 26" Samsung in my bedroom. I use them both as PC monitors.

Anyway yeah, if you're set on playing GTAIV ASAP, may as well get a 360 if you can't wait. For future reference, I like to use a coin flip to let myself know what I want. If the coin does not land in my favour, I tend to do what I wanted to do anyway.
