I love the XBOX 360 as well. I bought mine around the sametime Hellfire did.
I only wish I had more time to play it. My kids play it more then I do. I'm shocked at how fast they learn the controls. I think they are probably better then I am at this point.
My kids are 4 and 6.

..one more thing...Sure I may love the XBOX...but it doesn't touch or even compare to PC Gaming. The precision and also quality of games you get for the PC is untouchable. In my opinion anyway.
I agree on the 360 vs pc gaming part, although there is something to be said for buying a console and not having to worry about upgrading it in a year or two to play the latest games.
I have one and it ran great until it died 2 months ago from the RED RING OF DEATH! The replacemt unit I received just before Christmas looks like it might suffer the same fate. I was playing COD4 last night and it froze up hard
Still gotta be careful with that. I guess this is what happens when we rely on microsoft for a large demographic of console games. _________________ Currently being eaten by a system called Oracle9i, gosh it's sticky in here.
The RRoD is covered my M$ for 3 years, so all 360's since launch are covered by the warranty. Newer models (Pro/Elite) that have the HDMI port should be ok from the RRoD...
Myself, I own a Wii and PS3 I might get a 360 down the road, but I'm pretty happy with my current consoles _________________ "Who's doing what now?"

No RRoD yet (of course I don't play it all that much ). But so far it's been fun. Just hard getting use to gaming on a pad when I'm so used to keyboard and mouse.
Misty wants a WII, and we'll probably get one of those soon.
