My XBOX 360 experience

I guess after the cool session we had on game consoles and the beautiful flying opportunity of an available xbox360 console for sale by our dear friend Boiling Ice, I finally laid my hands on the beast.

Burnout was such a fun game to play at the session that I just went and told everyone about it. Not having my mind at rest I downloaded the PS2 version but it was no fun at all. At least not after what I saw in that session. Boiling Ice sent an SMS with an offer to own an xbox360. At first I though naaaaaaaah, but my brother kept on nagging for Burnout so I made a 50/50 deal with him and got the console.

I tried the console on a projection TV and I have to say that the quality of graphics is terrible. Luckily we have a 32" SAMSUNG with HDTV capability. Playing games in HDTV is an absolutely different experience. That wakes up demons in my head for buying a 46" HDTV which are around 1,000 BD!!

Another fun part is the XBOX Live. I never imagined playing other players would be so much fun. In fact I go online whenever I sign in. I especially enjoy making rivals!!

I find some other magic in burnout. It cools me down because I can ram the car so recklessly that I don't care about the cost. As a matter of fact, the more damage I cause the happier I become.
