    Xbox 360 poll - are you buying?

    Me? I'd like one, but will probably wait, even if my mouse button has been hovering over the pre-order button on amazon :-) (yes, i know there are no more guaranteed preorder deliveries before xmas)

    I think I'll wait until all three new consoles come out..

    Probably go down the PS3 route if I do get one.

    'Maybe, maybe not. Haven't decided yet.'

    Depends on the games really.

    Hell yeah.

    Pre-ordered and awaiting its release

    The reason why I hear you folks scream.... its Media Centre Extender capabilities are reported to be excellent - I'd expect nothing else from MS as they designed Media Centre, and with my main PC running media Centre I'll be able to stream all my music/videos/photos/pr0n to the xbox360 downstairs

    Secondly - some of the games are looking pretty good and I always like the xbox over the PS2 mainly down to the xbox live capabilities so I'll stick with xbox360 and see if they can make it any better.

    One's priced in Euros, the other in pounds.

    I've pre-ordered it as soon as I could.

    Midnight opening.

    I'll wait until the dust settles before putting my money down.

    If the games are good and they manage to sign up the series that I like (Pro Evo, GTA, Soulcalibur, etc) then I'll probably buy one. I'll make sure I play on a mates' box first though. Another deciding factor will be on how cheaply I can get it to network wirelessly. There's no way I'm paying £60 for the official wireless adapter.

    Same goes with the PS3.

    Just can't justify it when i spend so much on PC stuff. But when the price comes down (a lot) and if there are some killer games i can't get on my PC i might get one in a year or so. But then i might get a PS3. But how much gaming can a person do? I already plan to get a PSP aound xmas time. At the end of the day, my favourite games are FPS's and RTS which PC's do much better. A real awesome driving SIM might push the ballance a bit more though.

    I'll stick with my PC. I can't justify the extra cost. Games may play better, but It can't do alot that my PC can.
    Console Gaming to me seems alot geekier. I don't know why (please don't flame me!) but it just does.
