DiamondHavoc. Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I don't have any consoles I play on currently, and I would like to play online with my friends on various xbox games. I'm not going to spend lots of money on it, so I'm looking at getting a Pre-Owned 250GB Xbox 360. Should I get one? Y/N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utsoob Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I say yes. "But soob muh PC mastuh race asdfghahhei" You can get great xbl games, with still alive communities for near summer steam sale prices. Plus you get good games for FREE(with xbl gold but hell if your getting a xbox you are probably getting a gold membership) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny(: Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Get a 360, I bought one mid last year and it really isn't that out of date. Not laggy although it is slow compared to the Xbox One, it feels as though you're Downgrading from an iPhone 6 with iOS 8 to an iPhone 4 with iOS 5. It's still worth the money though, I bought mine for $100/£60 with 2 controllers and 3 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimaHawk Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 No. ..Okay.. Well I wouldn't get an Xbox.. On PC you have much better performance + fps, as well as free online and a larger variety of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professional Map Painter Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Consoles are crap compared to PCs. I guess you could play exclusive games like AC:Rogue, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeMcCoolName Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Do you want to play console exclusives / do you want to play with your friends? Yes? Buy it. No? Don't buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoㅤ Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 i feel like the main reason people are saying no is because "P C MASTER RACE UMG 60 FPS" 360 isn't that bad actually, i've got one and i'd recommend getting one if you have friends to play with add me: spherithex they've also got some pretty nice console exclusives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumblz Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Honeslty, most of the good games on xbox are also on PC soooo meh.Had this conversation with a gamestop employee the other day, most PC gamers get a Wii (or w/e the newest one is called) cause there is no game overlap & it's good ol' couch coop family fun. And I personally am kinda NEStolgic (get it, hahahahahaha) for mariocart, pokemon, marioparty, etc.But if your sole reason for wanting an xbox is to be able to play with your xbox buddies, then go ahead.

Zar_ Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 inb4 somebody says "ps3" I got an xbox 360 and it's really good IMO. If you get xbox gold membership you can get free games. I once got dishonored for free and darksiders 2 for free which is a pretty good deal IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin the Chicken God Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 you came to a pc community where apparently no one can read your question apparently, so you have that going for you definitely get an xbox if you dont want to shell out the cash for an xbone, it's great for playing with friends and the games are good to compensate for steam deals they also have some pretty good free games every month with gold, which is fantastic and makes sure you'll use up that 250 GB with quality games honestly wouldn't get a Wii U, there are very few good games on it and I have like one friend with one (just going off personal experience here c:) I'm assuming by your games that you don't have a pc that can run games like an xbox, which it seems that a bunch of people are assuming you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keroro1454 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 If you really want to play with your friends, then I guess buy one. But personally, I wouldn't recommend it: 1. It's older gen, so you're going to have worse graphics (although obviously you're not buying it for that) 2. There aren't a whole lot of good exclusive games on Xbox. In fact, the truly popular ones are all on PC, so there's no reason there 3. Do you want 12 year olds screaming at you that they had intercourse with your mother? I'd recommend a Wii U because: Original games, Gamepad is awesome, Nintendo-hype, and not having to pay for online access on a subscription, which is the stupidest thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProPain Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I prefer PS3 for the games and some other things. But if your friends have Xbox 360 and you want to play with them then go for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
