1. why is this even a question?
2. What the -blam!- is a Xenon?


*EDIT* I know you're using Xenon to replace 360... but why? It's like people getting their panties in a bunch over the name MacBook... ugh. Its a freaking name, just use it!

I got an Xbox 360 Premium as well, and I have all those games too! Though my HDTV is smaller then yours... just a 26" in my room but its simply amazing! Life is sweet isn't it Gruntbuster!?


I have to agree with you there! It's a pity I live in a village so I cannot get Xbox Live[ :( ].
Altough i'm only sixteen I brought all that stuff myself! Apart from the TV ;)

It kinda stinks H3 is on XBOX360. There too expensive, no multi-player games, aside from Sports, and it is basicly pointless to buy JUST for H3. Unless your a millionare, even than it's still pointless.

No Xbox live gruntbuster?!=o

And it doesn't stink that H3 is going to be just for the 360. It's 340925098232 times better. The graphics, the physics, the gameplay, its all going ot be better thanks to the 360. Stop not being able to afford a 360~=P lol

Fixed Version:
It rules H3 is on XBOX360. There price is cheap for what you get, lots of multi-player games and lots of great games coming out tin the future, and it is basicly pointless to buy JUST for H3 so that's why I am buying for games like Gears of War and other AAA games. Unless your a tramp or blind, you could get one!

Most people who have owned an xbox are probably gonna buy a 360 eventually anyway.

The halo series are videogame legends and I would rather get a 360 and have a great Halo 3 game then have a -blam!- H3 on xbox. Plus, if its on a 360, there will be less 10 year olds wasting my life on xbox live cause they either cant afford it or their mommys wont buy them 1.

I am...whimsical today.

Yes I agree.
I own an Xbox360 Premium.
GRAW (HDR lighting anyone?)
Oblivion (WOW!)
DOA4 (featuring Niacole the Spartain)
PGR3 (Best looking video game cars)
CoD2 (A PC port that is actually better than the PC version)
Plus a 42" 1080i HD TV.
And I am loving it!

...I hate you... ;)


I don't think Xenon sounds better than a 360, I like 360 myself.

Plus why would you ever think that would work. I guess thats like the 12 year old kids who dont understand video games, they just play them (nonstop).

I'm not saying lets make an xbox 1 version I'm saying no


I know but its instigating the 9 year old kids who can't badger their parents into buying them an Xbox 360. Then they read it, and they make a new poll with 50 stupid reasons (well not really reasons at all, just stupid comments) about why Halo 3 should be on Xbox also.

I have all that plus FarCry Instincts: Predator, Battlefield 2: MC, Quake 4, Condemned, and Fight Night Round 3.

with a 30" 1080i, 720p, HDTV-CRT (Samsung slim fit) and 5.1 Surround.

And I still play Halo 2 about 20x more than all that combined.

I really dont think people who actually want halo 3 on the original xbox should get halo 3, because thats just really really stupid. I mean think about it, halo 2 barely works on the xbox, the popping graphics, thats not the game, thats the box. Plus why would you ever think that would work. I guess thats like the 12 year old kids who dont understand video games, they just play them (nonstop).

BTW Mat Parker 116, that portion of the bible was written thousands of years ago when that was common in their culture, its not right for you to judge things you dont understand. Also I believe you should remove that from you sig, as it invokes religious discussion, which is banned on the forums, or at least captilized the word God to show respect.


Yeah H2 pushed the xbox to its limits, the poping graphics realy really annoy me. Im holding off on getting a 360 for as long as I can, Im waiting for the new better ones, but if H3 comes out before the nex 360s then I guess I'll just have to live with loger load times haha.

My questain is this tho, you guys play H2 on 360...is there still tones of gliches in the graphics or does the 360 clean those up?

And yeah, Parker 116, have some respect. If you knew what you were talking about (having to do with Exodus) you wouldnt say anything at all.
