It could be my lack of broadband, the $60 prices, the massive hardware failures, or the 10 hour "epics", but my 360 is gone, turned into a cool $250. I'm proud considering I kept the hard drive, and the $50 price cut is coming in a week or two. The mounting guilt every time I saw the mess of unplayed systems sitting in my gaming area became too much. Call it a wallet protecting measure for the absurd number of titles coming in the next few months.
I've got to admit though, I'm enjoying the duller polish of the last gen. Focusing on the Wii and PS2 has given me a welcome appreciation for the backlog. Okami, FFXII, Ace Combat 5, and Metroid Prime 2 all were tragically overlooked in former christmas release clusterfucks. Next time you're sitting down to enjoy a game, take a look at the collection. Find those unfinished gems, and remember a time before achievement points and when games shipped in their complete version (most of the time).
