-Signed That's a lot of money. I'm probably gonna wait awhile before I buy the next gen. Maybe make some dinaro on my RGH before I move on.


I was going to get mine when it came out, but they were out of consoles and I'm still debating on whether to get it. Most of my friends are on Xbox 360 and PC gaming so I'm kinda staying in the middle for now.



I have an xbox and most friends are on xbox but the game deals on playstation are tempting


PS Sucks bro. All about xbox

I had mine preordered so I got it at the midnight release.


You were lucky that they had it in stock, every where i looked it was sold out.


I preordered it a couple of months in advance and there was only 3 people at the midnight release.


Only 3 people, wow!

I just bought my console online, it comes tomorrow :)


Tell me what it's like, I want one.
