Well, you see, i want to get an xbox 360 for my birthday in 2 weeks, but usually i only rake in about 300 dollars in birthday money. But then i need to find a way to get the other 200. I have no idea how to get it. And also with tax money its 550 dollars. Why does microsoft only care about money, man. Not everyone is rich. I cant imagine what im going to have to save up when the ps3 comes out. UGH im so mad. I only want it for viva piniata anyway.

Microsoft? Greedy? This is flawed logic. Microsoft is like a soup kitchon compared to Sony. And besides $400 is nothing compared to most things nowadays but to be fair, I'll give you a money making guide. This is also serious.
Ways to make money
A) eBay
B) Find the richest neighborhoods near you and mow there lawns. If your lucky you can get up to $50.
C) Landscaping. This only works if your fit enough and know basic Spanish. You'll need to look around with it. It's the only before legal working age I could find...
D) You get $300 dollers?! I get 5...

Probably because they're losing about $130 with each 360 sold.

you loose $3 for spelling dollars and kitchen wrong and $2 for saying $400, wich is the american price, wich means you assumed i am american. Also i diddnt say sony wasnt greedy. Infact i was implying that they were. I think of sony and microsoft as equaly greedy, but since theres no way ill be buying a wii (i dont use my gamecube more than once or twice a month, so i doubt ill use a wii) ill be buying a 360 AND a ps3. And thats that. I really dont care what any nintendo or xbox fan thinks. I bought a ps2 six years ago. And i decided to buy a gamecube 4 years ago. The gamecube diddnt work out, and only collects dust. And my ps2 is great. It still works like new. Also, it dosent weigh a ton: http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse....?u=xbox_suckit Btw, this isnt the reason i dont like microsoft so dont bother.

I decided to go through and check your spelling and grammar, for fun.

F-
Meet me after class.

G- for the Maddox refrence. See me after life! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA! *Lightning in backround* But seriously I don't take to kindly to Maddox nowadays. He seems too full of himself. And complains. But his is right about one thing. Pirates.

Gruntling · #7 26th July 2006, 06:58 AM

If you're really strapped for cash, and you don't mind it, you could always try and find a used Xbox 360, new@bthacking. Granted all the Xbox 360's aren't even a year old yet, so I think the term "lighty used" fits in well here.

Mr 3vil · #8 26th July 2006, 08:53 AM

A PS2 is outdated compared to the XBox 360, Nintendo Wii, DS, and PSP. A PSP is now considered better and much more worth it over the PS2. Microsoft doesn't suck if you look at the company as a whole.

Maddox is a terrible source to use as well for back up. Maddox dislikes any modern system. He likes oldschool if you ever pay attention to his rants. Super Nintendo is probably his style so of course he would think XBox sucks. He mostly criticizes what is on his page anyways. This is what he calls that could have been the best game in the world.

Although I would never buy an Xbox unless I was thoroughly drunk and possibly high, I respect the contributions Microsoft has made to the gaming community. You know, the couple good games that are on Xbox like Halo and Mortal Kombat and, to a lesser extent, Grabbed by the Ghoulies.

It's not only microsoft that cares about money. The main goal of ANY business is to make money... even if microsoft are loosing $130 they have to be making money elsewhere otherwise they wouldn't release the Xbox 360.

No matter what they say or you might think, all business care about money more then anything else.

icegod · #12 26th July 2006, 10:34 AM

You can try to find an idiot who sells his to you for 50 euro

No really, I had a friend who got an xbox360 for his birthday, didn't know a thing about games and asked me if I could buy it from him for 50 euro

I expect microsoft make their money 3 other places: Computers, Games(They must make money from games, which is why they lose all that console money) and Rare.

Also buying and selling internet stock, or something else completely stupid.

Woah alot of you replied.

Andre

Listen, i dont write apostraphies. Its a waste of time. You can live without reading them.

Pinkbull

I said thats not the reason i hate the xbox. Thats just a really good rant.

Gruntling

Thank you for the help

Mr. 3vil

Every system you just compaired to the ps2 is one generation ahead. Also, i AM an old school gamer. Graphics dont appeal to me. And the best game in the universe is actually being made, and it will kick your hippie, xbox loving ANUSESESESES...

Driecenticore

I heard GBTG was rares biggest flop to date...

Time traveller

Yeah, and all he wants to do is add on to his pile of money.

Gaming Master2k

Apparently not nintendo.

icegod

Uh, that WOULD work if i wasnt canadian...

Driecenticore

Rare hasnt been doing good at all since they went to microsoft.

The ps2 has the best selection of GAMES. I really dont care about online play, or amazing graphics. Im one of those rare (not the company) gamers who likes to play games.

Apparently, you don't spell apostrophes either.
