Only reason to buy a console these days is if you don't know a dongle from a doorknob. Or if you have all of the money you want. Then by all means buy one and have fun. I don't care really what you do with your endless supply of money.

HAVE? o.o; It's a privlage to use a keyboard most of the time. Controllers suck, unless it's a driving game. And FPS DO matter, anyone ever play Perfect Dark for the N64 with 4 players, 8 bots and lots of explosions? I rest my case.

Question: I have $1000 to spend. Do I get a new mobo/CPU/GPU for my computer, or save it for an Xbox 360?

xbox 360, 1-2 games, xbox live goldmembership- atleast $550 atmost $650, my point- ull have a brand new console that can play the games for it for the next 5-6 years (computers usually 1-2 years u need a better comp), and cost less then 1000 dollars- giving u more money to spend on other things :P

Being a college student, I have no money. Therefore, I will not be buying any new system anytime soon.
