    No it's not, it's coming in March.

    And yes gtfo, it's obvious you came to this area to troll. By the way the 360 will RRoD regardless of what game you're playing, it's never the game's fault.

    The money you save from buying an XBOX will probably be used for the Wifi adapter or XBOX LIVE

    I bought mine primarily so that I could play games on XBL with my girlfriend. The price also factored into my decision, as did the games I wanted - Gears of War, Bioshock (was exclusive at the time) etc.
    I use the ethernet cable to connect to XBL, so I never need to buy the wireless adapter.

    It's worth noting that I've never had any problems with my (zephyr board) 360 in the two years that I've owned it. It hasn't even crashed.

    Honestly? The only reason i got the Xbox 360 is because i was TIRED of PS3's delays and eventually turned to Xbox for my next-gen fix :p

    I got my Xbox because all my friends had Xboxs or were getting them for Christmas, so I decided I might as well get one too.

    My X-box died a horrible death after 5 years of game playing. So I needed a new one so I can play my Star Wars. I rarely use it now though, maybe to play Final Fantasy or Dragon Ball Z from time to time. ;)

    I don't have a XBox, but if I did the only reason would be for Halo.... oh wait I have a PC(and it plays Halo), and they don't get RROD, now I don't need a XBox.

    So you get Halo 2.
    That's one of 5 Halos. And it isn't getting Reach.
    And RRoD = BSoD

    Who, are you serious? Which SKU (version) was it. Apparently, any ;people have no idea what a SKU is.
    Either way, my uncles XBOX overheats all the time! During the WInter, he said that he once got hot enough to heat a small room in Winter! AHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAH He has his XBOX for years.
    Oh wow, $129.99 for an XBOX Arcade w/256MB memory from Microsoft. They are really trying to get rid of those only SKUs of the XBOX 360.

    Because no one would ever say SKU. <_____<
    So it overheats.
    Maybe you should go do another activity than play a game for hours and hours on end.
    Even still, did he think of getting the cooling tower?
    No?

    I got my XBOX for my older sister's birthday actually, because she was wanting to get a few naruto games that were on it,
    and later on she started letting me use it.

    Funny thing is, I use it more then her. XD
