All right I'll ask your guys advice on this since I'm ****in stumped. Which would be more worth it?

AT TE $100
WM exclusive drop ship $50
Awesome ass Punisher Hoody $50
or start saving for a 360

I can't decide. And I hate paying that much for clothes, but it looks really cool. BTW this is for in like 2 weeks. I've been putting off the 2 vehicles since they're hella expensive. I unno what to do...

Well, star wars sucks ;)

The 360 will crap out on you every couple weeks....

so I'd go for the hoodie.

Lol, who asked you?

Just kidding.

I don't like spending that much money on clothes though, especially from Hot Topic.

There's no pics up anywhere yet. It's brand new, like not even a week on the shelves. It's basically the Punisher symbol, with red drippy paint look, on a hoody. Looks amazing.

Maybe...

Hoody for a Xmas/Hanukkah gift?

Money into the 360 fund?

I think I have to pick... That's the problem. I think I'd rather have the 360, but if I don't get this hoody it won't go on clearance. They'll most likely be gone before that, and I'm average sized, so my size will go fast.

360. The new ones don't crap out like the old ones.

Mine gets used a lot and it's been going for over a year with no probs.

I hope they go down in price when I have the money saved up. It's gonna take me like 6 months though, which blows.

I'm a size medium for everything. I feel your pain :(

Medium was a little tight, and Large was too loose. But I would go with a Large if I could. But that's what everyone buys. I'm a medium in shirts, but I like bigger hoodies. And Black Friday is in 2 days. Hot Topic doesn't keep a huge inventory on most things. The Batman and Wolverine costumes there were gone in a week for Halloween.

Ask them to hold it till Friday?

I won't have the cash for a week and a half. And I did, they said they can only hold for 24 hours. If they're gone they can call another store and try to order one for me. But there isn't any on the website. That's where I looked first for the pic. I'm still looking cause I have nothing better to do, but I haven't seen it yet.

If you can't get the hoody, go for the 360.

Yeah, thats what I'm thinking...

Lol, no Star Wars love. Wow.

I might do that. My biggest issue is, $50 for a ****in hoodie... The last one I bought is a thermal zip up for $20. I don't like clothes as gifts, and I don't like spending that much on one. But enough votes might make me think it's worth it to most people...

Putting the hoddie as a choice means you like it that much. I say you go for the hoodie. 360 Will still be around (and the price might still go down in the future)

I don't want the shell of a system the core is. I'm goin for the Pro or Elite, most likely the Pro. The core system isn't worth the box it's packaged in.

Buy a 360 Arcade and use the upgrade they have going on to get a 20 gig HD for 30 bucks.

Total= $230, which is not expensive at all.

A 50 dollar hoodie? I dunno, it would have to be pretty badass. I hesitate to spend that much on nice dress shirts.

I'd need te 60 Gig. I put music and other things on my XBox now lol, plus all the XBL stuff.

And that's my main reservation, is the hoodie worth $50.

When I was looking to invest on a game console, I wanted to have a media center.......

My priorities were to listen and store my music, watch movies, listen to internet radio and show my family photos and videos....

For that reason I decided on the PS3. If I need more space, I just install any SATA Hard Disk in about one minute......

I do play games but not that much. The only drawback I see on the PS3 is that the internet browser is sooooo slow.....

If you decide getting an Elite, just buy an Arcade and then a 120gb. You'll save some dollars

Well this I can agree to.

I've had my 360 for nearly a year now, and I have had NOT one problem.

There's other stuff that comes with the Elite and Pro that the Arcade doesn't though, like the wireless headset and extra cables and whatnot. Is it still worth it?

Oh yea, kinda forgot about that:rolleyes:

Elite comes with an ethernet cable, wired headset, and a cable with HDMI, Composite and Component.

Yea, I have a Pro. It crapped out on me so rather than buying an Elite, I just bought an Arcade and a 120 GB hard drvie. I just use the video cables on my Pro in the Arcade.

Go for 360, mine only recently got the RRoD, and I've had it for 3 years.
