I'll never buy a console (except maybe a portable one)
But if I would, I'd go for the PS3.

My 360 collects dust. Even if it were a ps3, it still would occupy the same role. Dust collector. That is, until KZ2 comes out.

Both my PS3 and 360 collect dust. Or at least the PS3 will be, Picking up Halo Wars today. That'll keep me occupied as I'm getting the collectors ed, with the Mythic Map Pack for Halo 3 <3. I might dig out MotorStorm later on after I'm bored with HW XD (which might not be likely in the near future)

My 360's been collecting dust for a few weeks. I meant to play it Sunday, but got sidetracked when I didn't get home all day until about 10PM.

My PS3 hasn't been collecting dust at all. Skate and COD4, some GTAIV = win.

My PC and 360 are both collecting dust. Hell, even the TV is collecting dust. Anybody got any ideas how to get rid of all this dust? I hate wiping the tv screen...

Same here, they're so close to the window.

Cover them with a piece of cloth when you're not using them, just give them some time to cool down first.

I got ripped off by EB Games. I bought Halo Wars Limited Edition and they didn't give me the code for the Mythic Map Pack or the Honor Guard Wraith...b*stards...

I used to have to cover my first-generation PS2 with a towel to keep cat hair out of it. It was quite odd having to explain to people why I had a damn towel over it... :lol:

Come back to them and shove the box up their a**.

Even better, email them. I'm sure you'd get the code if you could prove them you bought it. If not, then shoving the box up their a?? is the second best option. Maybe use something more painful if you want to keep the box.

Don't worry, I got the card. The downside? The next person to buy the collector's ed won't be getting a LIVE trial or the Map Pack and Wraith with it....

I think he means that they took the code from another box, and whoever buys that box doesn't get the LIVE trial or Map Pack and Wraith.

I thought about that too, but wouldn't it be kind of hard to execute?

EB games is full of a bunch of moron teenagers. They should file the complaint with MS's distributor and get the code through them. Not just rifle through their product bin and jack the contents from that.

Im sure the one that they salvaged will be refurbished anyways.

Hard to execute? Are you in the wrong thread?

All the eb employees I have met so far are a bunch of pimple faced douche bags who dont know anything beyond their own bias.

I prefer Best Buy employees. At least they actually know technology and not just video games.

I mean good God, when I was trying to get Mercs 2 for PC (before it went wide-spread,) I called about 7 stores in the area, (when I say in the area, I mean under a 2 hours drive.)

Anyway, their website said one of the ones in Fayetteville had *A* copy.

"Yes sir, I was calling to see if you have a copy of Mercenaries 2 for PC in stock"
Uh....
Um, I don't think it ever came out on PC.
*Asks dude beside him,*
"Uh, na... I haven't heard anything about it."
Sorry bro, I don't think we have it if it did come out.
"Why don't you go check the rack real quick"
Well, whatever...
*A minute later,*
Oh, yeah... we have *one* copy.
"Thanks." *slam*

...there's the shortened version.
