Xbox 460

I was in my local Game store this weekend and found, to my surprise, that they had some Premium Xbox 360 bundles in stock! The only problem was that they were only willing to sell them for £460, bundled with 4 (crap) games. What a load of fucking tosh they are! Trying to squeeze even more money out of me so they can sell more games! Thats an extra £190! Since my matey Swimpig has got himself a PSP for xmas and I have put in a good few minutes on it - I am pretty impressed with it. I am now in a quandry over getting a PSP - or getting a 360. Maybe I could get a PSP and then a 360 in the summer but I am not sure. The thought process behind getting a PSP means that I could play FIFA when the missus is watching her soap opera stuff. It might be worth me holding out for a non-retail PSP with some nice old-school firmware so I can load homebrew apps and emulators on it. I can then sell my GBA-SP to part-fund the venture. The problem is - I really want BOTH of these items - but feel that if/when I get one of them I expect I will feel terribly unfulfilled. I'm not sure what it is about me and these kind of things. I obsess about them until I get them and then.... nothing. A real anti-climax. I have been the same with my iPod. I do use it - but not as often as I thought. It's a good job I have'nt got much money - otherwise my house would be (more) full of crap! Technorati Tags: , , , , , ,
