From my unbiased point of view, I say yes. [Wink]

Boo.

Find a friend with XBox and get them to let you play it on their machine. Fable isn't worth several hundred dollars.

If I get a console, it'll probably be a Gamecube for party games.

To enable us to better answer this question, who is Unicornwhisperer to you?

If she doesn't want to see you for hours at a time, I'd say yes.

If you're married, I think you have better things to do then spend hours playing a game with ultimately no real value beyond being able to say it was an interesting diversion.

Not to mention that's a lot of money for a mindless diversion.

Just my two bits.

Unicorrrrrn... Your man-friend over there risked his life to save mine, throwing himself out in front of a giant whale of a bus to toss me aside. He jumped out of the way and the bus swerved to an untimely explosion that didn't harm either of us. The least you could do is get him an X-box..

Though if he's on it too often.. I know this nifty little trick you can do with a hammer and make it his Ex-box.

Except I have a wife that likes to play video games with me (aren't you guys jealous [Taunt] ).

However, I don't think I could talk myself into paying that much just to get one game.

Nope, anyone who watches FOX for news programming is already spending way too much time in fantasy.

Hey, fantasy is real man!

Seriously though, if you're right, then maybe Dan Rather should starting anchoring for Fox News.

Marlozhan how long is your "Honey Do" list? I'd say the length of the list is inversely proportional to the possibility of getting an x-box.

My list is finished on a daily or bi-daily basis.

Hey, if she enjoys the game and you're up to date on your to-do list, it's all good.

I still say it's a lot of money to spend on a video game, but opinions vary.

It's worth it.. especially with Halo and Halo2 and Jedi Knights.. there's alot of good games for the system..
I have a Game Cube and a PS2.. but I still regreat not having an X-box.. not that the other systems don't have their good points too.. *shrugs* - depends what you're desire is..

Game Cube is definately more kid-ish.. but it has great games like Mario Party and the Zelda series..

PS2 can play PS1 games and spreads over a large variety of action adventure, race, RPG's and scary stuff..

x-box though.. has immense quality and guaranteed happiness.. - I've played more X-box with my friends than I have with either of my systems put together.. *shrugs*- just my view of things..
