Holy crap. For a core system too...

Unfortunately, you didn't get the xbox 360 this morning.  Very few people did.  I am one of the lucky ones that got it and rather than play with it, I would rather let someone who really wants it buy it.I would rather make $1,725 worth of profit

Man, Deepblue, you really need to learn that graphics a good game do not make. So what COD2 looks better on the 360, dosen't mean I'm going to shell out 400 bucks to play a game that runs at a higher FPS than the human eye can tell, and for a bit more shiney.. Whoo freaking hooo, and MS also needs to get some more prolific exclusives, and I don't mean games that are also on PC (like COD2 and such).

 Sony has so much in way of this, everything from Final Fantasy to the God of War sequel to the next Team Ico game to Gran Turismo to Devil May Cry to Metal Gear to, well, everything that really makes the consoles, the games, in it's corner. Yeah, MS has Gears of War, and that new BioWare game in the pipeline, but they really need to get more in their corner if they hope to battle Sony and Nintendo exclusives, and I don't think that MS will ever be able to match those two in that catagory.

Well, it ihasn't been announced that one is in the works, but the team that did it is working on a game for the PS3, and with the succes of GoW, well, you put two and two together...

Must I reiterate?

Halo 3 (Bungie)
Banjo Threeie (Rare)
Gears of War (Epic)
Mass Effect Trilogy (Bioware FTW!)
Too Human Trilogy (Silicone Knights)
Forza Motorsport 2  (Microsoft Game Studios)
Ninja Gaiden 2 (Team Ninja)
[eM] Enchant Arm (From Software)
Chrome Hounds (From Software)
etc.

A whole slew of awesome exclusives.

I fail to see your point.

Banjo Tooie was a shocking game, possibly one of the worst sequels I've ever come across considering how good the first was. After that I wouldn't touch another Banjo game with a ten foot pole.

Gears of War (Epic)
I'm fairly sure that's been confirmed for PC as well.

The rest of the games don't interest me so yeah.

My biggest draw (other than Halo 3 of course) is XBL. It plain rocks, and the pricing is reasonable. Sure PC games are free online for the most part, but the experience on XBL is just better.

By proven, I mean being created by AAA developers and likely to be AAA themselves. And all of those are exclusive.

And I'm not worried about Gears. Some lucky individuals got to go hands on at the X360 launch event and they absolutely loved it. These games are not just looks (but they'll have that anyway).

Interesting article on Slashdot today. Apparently there've been reports of the Xbox 360 being unstable.
