Looking to buy an XBox 360

I don't do any gaming on my PC, but I thought to run COD4, Bioshock, etc., you had to have a $200+ graphics card. That right there is 50-75% of the entire cost of a console. If you don't need something like that, then I can see your point.

The biggest issue for me is that I want to be in my living room on the 1080p when I'm playing a game. I have 2 PCs and 3 laptops, but I prefer the console for games. I guess a part of it boils down to personal choice.

You just need a sweet gaming den like what Daseal has...

LOL that's a sweet setup

Love the knobs on that 12 inch monitor.

Is that a recent pic of Daseal? I didn't know he smoked.

Yeah the graphic requirements for COD4, Bioshock, Gears of War, etc., are pretty high from what I understand, if you want to get the full potential out of the game.

It's definitely an issue of personal choice. For me I just like the ease of buying a console and not having to worry if a game will come out tomorrow that my computer can't handle.
