I don't understand... You mean... PRICE? Here in Spain it cost 479 €, aprox. 420 $
If you're refering to sales, what does the $ means? Explain, please.

oo I am sorry yes I mean the price, and I am dealing with the US dollar :P what I mean they are selling in less than half the original price. I will give you the euro prices now: it should be 479 euros (as you said. but in germany it is as cheap as: 149 euros. man that look too bad!

Wow, that's a terrorific price change!! But, even costing only 130 $, I would not buy it. And I don't think that here they will drop the price that much. Is that price (130 $) an official change, or is somethig that a few stores are doing?

That was just a price war between major retailers, MS' suggested retail price (and the price small retailers sell the Box at) is still around 480 Euro
This of course, is good news for Microsoft, since they're putting more X-Boxes out on the market without getting any extra losses from the price-cuts!

I might do that if the DVD player is better than the PS2,still XboX as a consle SUX! could any one hold the controller? the amazing thing is the rule of big here in the US, it says "make big stuff, the bigger is it the better it is" what a rule

From what I've heard,there's nothing different between PS2's DVD and X-Box's. Except you gotta buy a thing sepeartley for the X-Box,whilst the cool PS2 already has it built in.
The only cool game on X-Box I like is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2x. They should release that for the PS2.

I don't have nothing against the Box, but against Microsoft messing in the game market.

BTW............
The places in germany selling X-boxes for as little as $150 US are also giving you two cell phones and requiring you to pay for a long-term service plan, so it's not quite as cheap as it seems.
But hey, the X-box isn't that bad. :P
edit- man I had accidentally quoted myself!!

You already got part 3, why do you need an upgraded version of 2?

Maybe he likes the levels, music, affects more in 2 than he does in 3. Another thing might be that TH3 may have a differnt game engine resulting in differnt gameplay.
Edit- Thanks fret, didn't know about this, didn't mean to double post either just thought of a diff idea without know of edit.

There's an "edit" button under your name. Try using that instead of double posting.
