Aggie2008 Posted October 28, 2005 Author Share Posted October 28, 2005 Hopefully they tested the DVD drives on these things for longevity...me and several of my friends have xboxs that stopped reading disks correctly after about two years...you have to buy a replacement drive which was around 70 bucks the last time I checked.

Thats fine with me because they to me make the best baseball games anyway. EA has a similar agreement with the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baseballstar6906 Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 MVP Baseball is WAY better than anny 2k5 game....i mean come one you hve the most game tuning options, not to mention you control how hard your fielders throw. but one think i do like about 2k sports is how smooth they turn the DP but thats about it. i played that game for like 3 months and only got the computer looking on strike three once and i strike out like 15 batters a game...even on the hardest difficulty level. 2k5 did have some clean graphics though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 A buddy of mine that works at Best Buy in Tyler said that they might release the 360 a couple of days before the 22nd. 'Baseballstar', you work at Best Buy in Longview right? Have you heard anything about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baseballstar6906 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 i havent heard a thing about it. i wish there was some way i was gauranteed one but theres not:ermm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggie2008 Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 All of the stickers and displays say the 22nd...hard to believe they would waste that much money on advertising a wrong release date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Yeah, I know, but he said something about Best Buy getting some sort of exclusive right to be able to sell it 2 or 3 days in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeuceChunker03 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Originally posted by Wildcat_20I just like the gameplay better on the PS2...not to mention the controller on the PS2 is easier to use than the X-Box...Plus remember when X-Box first came out, the games were like 80 bucks!!!

poisoned10 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 The Best Buy in Tyler put up a demo today for the XBOX 360. I just got back not too long ago from playing it for about an hour. It is awesome. I played Call of Duty 2 and it was great. I'm not real big on games like that, I'm more of a sports guy, but I went ahead and put it on reserve.

Aggie2008 Posted November 2, 2005 Author Share Posted November 2, 2005 Originally posted by FreshClub22well, i think i might change my mind on the Nitendo Revolution and get the 360............

DeuceChunker03 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yeah, the Revolution is going to flop. Â I'm ready for the 360. They are saying that because Sony is using the Blu-ray discs, their games could easily run about 80 bucks a pop. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Just about 10 days away until the release of the 360!!! I'm getting pretty excited about it. I'll be picking up my games for it on either the 15th or 17th at Best Buy. Even though I won't be able to play them. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeuceChunker03 Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Yeah, I played King Kong. Absolutely amazing. Awesome graphics, and it runs smoother than a baby's bottom. I can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phl1331 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 poisoned, Circuitcity.com looks they they will have it this friday at 1pm Central time...this most likely means that circuit city will also have it in their stores at this time. They most likely paid an exclusivity fee to microsoft in order to have this. Â Also, about baseball games how about EASports new NCAA Baseball coming out in the spring, it looks awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are saying that because Sony is using the Blu-ray discs, their games could easily run about 80 bucks a pop. No thanks. Â But on the flip side the Sony discs hold about 5 times more data than Microsofts standard DVD-9 discs. Developers are complaining already about the lack of room on the 360's discs meaning we could have the Gamecube-style double discs pretty soon for 360. PS3 beats 360 in this category.

I thought the same thing too, but then I came to the conclusion that it will only be available online at that time and you can pick it up on Tuesday. That may or may not be right, but that's what I would guess. Best Buy isn't able to release it early because Circuit City said that they would sue them. So maybe they did get exclusive rights. Or maybe they just didn't want them to have the jump on them. I'll have to go check it out tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I just cheched out CircuitCity.com and the deal they are doing for the XBOX 360 is a web only offer. It says that it will be available in stores on the 22nd, just like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phl1331 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Yeah you can order it on friday online and possibly be able to overnight it and recieve it on Monday?!? possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I've been trying to get on Circuit City's website but it keeps timing out. Stupid too many people trying to get the XBOX 360 keeping me from getting mine!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poisoned10 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I finally got on about 15 minits after I posted above, but didn't buy one. They only offer the bundle deals and I didn't care for the games, so I didn't want to spend the extra money for something I won't ever play. I don't know for how long, but they are sold out of the bundles on-line. Â Â Someone told me that Best Buy and Wal-Mart wouldn't be getting the Premium edition of the 360. Anybody else hear this? I think the guy that told me was just blowing smoke. I haven't found any evidence to back him up or prove him wrong. Maybe someone else will know.

poisoned10 Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I went and bought NBA Live 06 and Madden 06 earlier. I was reading in the manual and it will be different from the previous releases for the PS2 and XBOX. The menus are different, the way you call plays are different. I can't wait to get started playing. Just about 31 more hours until it's unleashed upon North America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
