I bought a 360 Arcade -- 'jasper'.
« on: Sunday, November 29, 2009, 01:35:58 AM »
When I realized that to replace my three or four 360 favorites on the PS3 I'd end up paying as much as a $199, I thought to myself, why the hell not.

But now I am afraid to take it out of the box.

I guess it being a Jasper still doesn't instill any confidence to its reliability as a product.

I have over 20 Xbox 360 games.  Trying again is the only option that makes economic sense.  Let me know how it goes for you.

How quickly I forgot this thread.

So, how did it go?  Did you ever pull it out of the box?

Yes I played it once that very day for a few hours with my brother (FIFA 2010), and then went back to my PS3 and haven't touched it since. It was logical to buy it, even though it seems like it was a bit of a mistake having picked up the PS3... but I have been really wrapped up in Dragon Age lately.

If I also had a PS3, I`m sure I`d also focus on it instead with new game purchases.  I was very tempted to go that route when I decided to spend some money recently on gaming.  It would have been a mistake without a much bigger budget.  I really needed to maintain what I already had, namely replace my dead Xbox.
