1.4 - @1.2, speaking of needing to do something or going ouside and living alittle, you seem offended that I would say such a thing in this 360 thread hence the personal attack from a hardcore PS3 fan lol.
So says the person in every major 360 thread trying to bash(stop trolling before you make comments like that lol)

LOL a hardcore PS3 fan tells a Xbox fan in a 360 thread he needs better things to do after the 360 fan was just fooling around.

You find panthers in every 360 thread and he's telling others to go outside lol yet you find him in almost every 360 thread finding excuses to downplay 360 news lol.

Drool... That sounds fun.

Guys whenever you don't have your Xbox or PS3, don't do something productive. Just drool over a plastic boxish thing.

That ferrari game looks sick..... but honestly people need to stop crying when people post on 360/ps3 threads. Are 360/PS3 fans limited to only reading and posting to their console of choice's threads? the answer is NO. Quit complaining, its called freedom of speech. If one was to truly only read 360 threads because they are a 360 fan, then they are just closed minded.

Unless a few of you want to act like they did on South Park when the internet broke.

12 - big deal
come on, xbox (or any other platform) isnt just about online!! i enjoy single just as much, if not more, as multi! ts not the end of the world if u cant play multi for a day. and playing single doesnt necceserly need to b viva pinata. CoD4, GoW all those games are amazing at single too. and then there are things like AC, which dont have multi at all, and they are still amazing!

"10. Get some sun. You are going to be spending A LOT more time inside once the New Xbox Experience launches "

Yes, because this is surely going to change how much we play our 360s. Because so many people are going to make Netflix accounts on the spot and mess around with avatars for hours a day... right.

I think the article writer doesn't realize that NXE doesn't launch until November.

16 - LOL, dumb article.
It's acting like every Xbox won't be functional for 24 hours.

Play a single player game. Currently, I'm playing through Bioshock for the second time. After that, I'll play through Rainbow Six Vegas. Not a big deal to be off of XBL for a whole 24 hours.
