Default My friend won't get a 360

I was talking to my friend who told me that he wouldn't get a 360. He thought the core is $400 and the premium is $500 . I mean he thinks they are exactly the same and stupid people will buy the expensive one. I think he is being retarted. He brought the first Xbox on launch, but since he got a girlfriend he won't play games. I need help to convince him to get one.

I dunno, I thought it was harder to play games when you have a girlfriend but I never stopped playing them. You should just invite him over and let him get a taste of what he is missing whenever you get your 360.

My friend is the same way. Just when you get one show him what he is missing.

I'm not sure what you mean by "he thinks they are exactly the same" cause they are the same console except one has more extras then the other.

Well Pac Mack, I've had similar problems with women. You just got to find the right one- one that either lets you play and doesn't care about your "hobby", or the other who plays with you. Any others will ruin your life.

Okay, as you have already heard, you need to show him the 360 goodness he will be missing out on. Secondly, you need to educate him some more, as he is obviously retarded at the moment (this happens whenever you get a new flame, you stop being logical). Lastly, if he does not have a hobby, he's going to need one to balance himself soon- too much of a good thing can be a bad thing. Call it "caveman time". Its time dedicated to being a guy, not some lapdog to cater to his women's every need.

Good luck, if he doesn't come back, treat him like a horse with a broken leg. Yup, you'll have to put a bullet in him. Sorry Pac, but its better for everyone that way.

Hahahaha, I've been with my girl for 2 and 1/2 years now. At first she didnt play, but now I cant get her off of it. When she heard of Kameo she went and pre-ordered her own 360. Anyway, like everyone else said...Give ya boi a small taste of what tha 360 is like when you get yours. I bet he gets hooked...

Cool Get him to come here

Give him the address to this website I'll bet he will change his mind after learning about the 360 and what it can do. I mean it is not just a game system it is an entertainment system and a way of life.

Is that girlfriend featured in your avatar? Is it the one on your left or right or both?

Thanks for the Advice Quandre, Grindstone, ace, Muthas, Morder, Gameplaya and other I forgot to mention. I had a gf, but she almost broke my Gamecube because I chose not to have lunch with her. I dumped her right on the spot.
