New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)

So my 360 died last night with the RROD.

Anybody have suggestions on how to get a cheaper one as replacement.

Part of me says F it and just chuck and use my PS3 but I do like playing some of the Xbox only games.

I know a decent number of local repair shops offer to fix em for about $60

Thanks, I just bought the 4G slim with Kinect for $300 at best buy and they give you a $100 gift card with the purchases. So $200 basically and it has a warranty for at least a year.

Obviously I would suggest getting a PS3. Seeing as how it comes with blu-ray, wifi, and what is now regarded as a stronger lineup of exclusives. However if you like Halo, GOW, Fable, etc then I would suggest going to Gamestop and getting a Pre-owned 360.

My brother actually got the cheapest model new, the arcade for around $200 and kept his hard drive from his RROD console.
