Has anyone purchased XBOX 360?

[Princeton]

I promised my boys (7 & 6 year old) that I would purchase XBOX 360 if they get all A's on their report card. Well they got A's; however, I have not purchased the product yet.

I'm interested in the $400 version.

Has anyone purchased XBOX 360? If so what do you think of it?

Have you experienced any problems as have been reported?

How are the graphics compared to the original XBOX? Is there really a B I G difference?

Does anyone have any idea when a new bundle will be out? For example, I would like to purchase the product with a game -- just as they offer with the original XBOX consoles.

------------------

I'm also looking to purchase a plasma/lcd HDTV tv.
42" is good enough for me.
(THIS IS FOR ME-NOT MY KIDS)

Any comments?

I want to play XBOX 360 games on it.
Maybe, add the pc to the system.

thank you

Graphics are way better then any other console.........if you connect it to a HDTV capable TV.

they have not reported any problems as of yet

one of the reported problems (lawsuit pending) ... the power supply and central processing unit in the Xbox 360 overheat

yea, I seen some of the higher-end bundles ... costly
some of these bundles come with M-rated games ... my kids are not allowed to play M-rated games

I have a son of 5 years old now, and i am looking for a good reason to buy him a XBOX-360. I am afraid however that there are not many games suitable for his age available. So i guess it will have to be another console.

Nintendo Ds?

My sons currently have XBOX, PS2, and GameCube (all given to them from their aunts/uncles) ... we only allow E games (some T games are not that bad)

I don't play any of the games but I am just itching to play the XBOX 360.

I am afraid that it will be a GameCube. Most suitable (educational???) games seems to be for that platform.
