X-Box Vs. Atari
My brother-in-law the other day brought home an Atari from Target and it has been the coolest game system I have played in a long while. I have been playing Pong and Asteroids and Centipede for last couple of days and it has been bliss. One button with a joystick is all I needed to be entertained by a game system. He got this Atari with 40+ built in games for only $20.00. That's B A Utiful (complements of Bruce Nolan). Now, what is up with the X-box 360. I figure I could buy like 35 or more Atari's for the price of one X-box. Yes there is the quality difference and stuff and I do appreciate graphic intensive games, but that is a large price tag. Plus, I am the video gamer type as long as it doesn't make me sick. I am just wondering who is Microsoft targeting with this expensive monstrosity. Cus it's not me. Does anyone own this X-Box yet?

I'm with you age, I have a hand held thing with pac man and some other cool arcade games, thats enough for me. I can care less about the 360º
I like the idea of owning a new X-Box, but only if someone else is paying. There have also been widespread problems with them; Microsoft is mulling over a recall. Pretty funny if you ask me.
I know a dude that does, but I think he makes like 500K/yr...
Hey there AJ! Even as a person who works in the industry, I do not see a point in getting the XBox 360. Sure, if you have about $400 in your pocket you are just itching to spend, go for it. But, in my opinion, there are no worthy games out for it yet, and I am always queasy about getting a first-generation system. Let them work some bugs out first, or offer a game I cannot refuse. Until then, my regular XBox (or my preference for PC games) will win.
I liked your more recent blog (the one that disappeared).
