Well I do like the American Style of RPG's. I do like Metal Geat but F'N HALO IS THE SHYT !!!! I play Madden of course and of course I'd play Halo. Grand Theft is on the XBox as well. So I guess the XBox will be my choice. I guess I can get a Blu-Ray player in due time. Thank you all for your help I think the 360 is going to be my choice. Should I go with the 512 MB for $349.99 or the 120 GB for $449.99 ?

I'n guessing the 512 will be fine but just wondering what opinions you all may have of them.

Heres the breakdown for the core and premium:
Xbox.com | Xbox 360: Customize Your Entertainment Experience (http://www.xbox.com/en-us/hardware/xbox360/xbox360customize.htm)

And heres the specs for the Elite:
Xbox.com | Xbox 360 - Introducing Xbox 360 Elite (http://www.xbox.com/en-us/hardware/xbox360elite/)

Personally I have the 20gb, but the Elite wasn't around when I got mine. 120GB would be overkill for me since I dont download any games on my hard drive from online or store any music or videos. I wouldn't recommend the 512mb though. If I remember correctly its just a memory card so if you're playing Madden or any other game that requires a lot of memory you will fill it up in no time. Good luck with it.

i really like my 360, but I want a hi def dvd, so i'll buy the ps3 because blu ray won out that battle, and its within a couple of hundred bucks of the ps3 anyway.... may as well just get one...

plus the 360 keeps dying on me with that ring of light garbage. I'm a gta nut, and havent even seen the game yet because 2 days before it came out the xbox went dead...

My 360 has never died. While playing assassins creed i use to let it run all night.

Does that make me lucky?

Mine died once (Exchanged it same day since I bought an extended warranty through CompUSA) but supposedly that problems been fixed. I've actually seen a business in my area that fixes the ring of death for like 50-75 bucks depending on the location. From what I understand something gets too hot and comes un-soldered on the board.

Get a 360, mine died once too but it is so much more fun then PS3. I have PS3 and it sits in it's box. It's final mission will be to play MGS4 then it will be proudly displayed on eBay for the highest bidder.

Halo 3, COD 4, GOW, BioShock, and GOW 2 a lone should make you want this system. Plus I love Live much better then PS3 on-line.

I have the 360 and I definitely recommend it. However, be sure to buy a replacement plan just in case. The later models don't have the problems that the earlier ones did, but I wouldn't risk it.

I've been thinking about getting a PS3 lately and I feel like this is a pretty good package to start off with...
PlayStation 3 Grand Theft Auto IV Bundle : Target (http://www.target.com/PlayStation-Grand-Theft-Auto-Bundle/dp/B0018Q67BQ/qid=1211904528/ref=br_1_1/601-2542634-5001737?ie=UTF8&node=365435011&frombrowse=1&rh=&page=1)

Not sure if you will need 120GB but definitely go with the 20GB hard drive at the least. You'll need it in order to download demos and other content.
