    Attention [TK]StitchJones..

    It has finally happened... I am now in the console kiddie camp. I purchased an XBOX 360 250GB combo today. I'll be adding a kinect as well for the wife, as she was the diving force behind buying this. (No, REALLY!)

    I also have a new Vizio 47" LCD being delivered today. Nothing 'fantastic' spec wise, but its 1080p, 120hz and it was $599 on Amazon with free delivery, no taxes. It's an upgrade over our Sony HD CRT "Slimline" 34" 720 TV. Anyone want a good price on a 350lb TV?

    Congrats. Question is, what's your first game(s)? And definitely interested in hearing what you think of the kinect.

    hehe. I've held off the urge to get it despite absolutely loving the first two. I'm planning on getting my ps3 back around xmas, picking up GT5, and hooking it up to the the Logitech.

    If you want to barrow my xbox wheel/pedel set though, let me know - I'll be up your way at some point the next few weeks. It's far from the Logitech, but a 100x better than a controller.

    LOL - It's NOT a sim! It's too bad the G25 doesn't work on the 360. But again, I doubt I'll be doing 'a ton' of hardcore gaming on the 360 because it will be downstairs in the living room where the TV is. That doesn't mean I won't pick up some multiplayer games down the line, but the PC will still be my primary platform I imagine.

    Stitch - My XBOX Tag is Hylander12871 (I set it up online even though I don't have the XBOX yet.)

    I don't own any of those games at this time. I still need to buy another controller yet as well.

    We're hooking the new TV up tonight, and then the XBOX should be here on Tuesday according to Fed-Ex tracking.

    Hey: I bought an xbox 360 about a month ago. My gamertag is CatsHeadBiscuit. I've got Red Dead Redemption, Halo Reach, and Forza 3 (which is a work of art by the way). See you online!

    I sold my sole to the Playstation gods so I'm a Gran Tursimo racer. IF I can find Forza 3 for a good price I will consider picking it up to race with you guys. I have Red Dead for the PS3, I played with Palooka once in it I think. That game is a instant classic.

    Fax I just sent you a friend request, hope to play online with you soon! I think you should pick up Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and 2. We could get a small room going with some crazy terrorist hunt missions.

    My gamertag is Palooka77. My PSN username is the same. I think I have most of the games worth getting, including those named by Fax. By the way, Forza 3 seems to be better than GT5, judging by the reviews. I don't think I'll bother with the latter.
