I was planning on trading in all my 360 games and signing up for a powerup rewards card right before I robbed the store wearing the exact same clothing. :wacko:Quote:

Keeping your 360 or just making the switch completely? Either way, be sure to add me on PSN when you have that shit up and running! :nod:Quote:

I'll more than likely end up getting the move bundled one with the bigger hd if I get one, so I'll at least be able to flail my arm around like an idiot. Or... browse the internet. :wacko:Quote:

I might buy it when the price drops a bit.
Hey, that's a good idea. I'll probably never even use it anyways. :P I'm gonna sell my games on Amazon or something though, because fuck Gamestop, so it may take awhile to even have money to buy new games with.Quote:

I'd have said eBay personally, but I'm a bit of an eBay whore. And I've done that before, traded in things you get with a console to get money off the console. :wacko:Quote:

You need to pay a monthly fee to set up an account on eBay though right? Amazon takes a shit ton of commission but only when your stuff sells. I think I'm gonna try Craigslist first though. Hopefully I'd be able to unload all the games at once for a decent price.Quote:

As far as I could figure out it's free to list things on Amazon, and they only take commission from the sold items, and also cover some of the shipping. At least that's what I gathered from some articles I read. I was also considering half.com, which is basically eBay's version of Amazon, although every single game had a lower price on half, but with less sellers. So I don't know, I'm still undecided. I'd much rather sell them all at once for a bit less than I could make selling them individually and avoid the headache of shipping/tracking and buying a bunch of padded envelopes, though. :wacko:Quote:

You pay a small commission on the listing price, and final selling price, of your item, but beyond that eBay doesn't require any subscription fees or anything. If you don't sell anything for four months, then you don't pay anything for four months. :shrug:Quote:

Ah, alright. Whoever was saying it cost a monthly fee on eBay on w/e site I read that on is dumb then. :P I've never sold anything on any of the three sites before, so I'm really just trying to figure out how to get the most money. It sounds like Amazon would be the way to go if Craigslist falls through though.Quote:

Yeah, that's the one thing that bothers me about cloud computing, the lack of physical hardware and backups. Plus, if you're living on a budget or have to go without internet for awhile, onlive would be completely useless.
I kinda wish I still had a modded 360 so I could try out some of the games that came out recently like: Hunted Demon's Forge, Dungeon Siege 3, Shadows of the Damned, Child of Eden, Alice Madness Returns, and probably loads more. @_@
I've heard Hunted Demon's Forge is a glitchy piece of shit, although it looks pretty fun from some of the videos I've seen. That's another reason I'm gonna keep my 360. For modding that is, not Demon's Forge. ;)
