Sorry for butting into your thread, scrodamoon, but I couldn't resist. Best of luck with your auction.

I'm morally committed to never buying an Xbox of any sort, but if that doesn't matter to you (obviously not since you bought a 360) then I'm puzzled as to why one would want an FX over a 360. The 360's Live Arcade stuff is f*cking amazing. The FX...just sucks. Seriously, as cute as it is, its one of the worst consoles ever. There is hardly any selection of genuine "games" on it whatsoever, quality or otherwise. There is one semi-decent brawler, and one shooter. The rest is mostly RPGs, and action RPGs of a quality I would describe as mobile phone-grade. Its worse than a Supergrafx since at least a Supergrafx can play PCE games.
The only way a 360 is going to sit unplayed, and an FX would be actually played, is if you are just being contrary...or if you don't buy any live arcade stuff.

SGX hater...

I imagine he's more interested in seeing what the PC-FX console is actually like since it's so damn obscured. We've all been down this path, really. That said, PC-FX isn't as bad as it's made out to be, but it complete relies on your taste and confidence. Generally speaking, yes PC-FX is pretty awful as a good game console, but it's not for everyone.

I've learned to ignore SignOfZeta's anti PC-FX filibusters. He doesn't like the console and he never will. It's pointless trying to convince him otherwise.
-
Well besides REZ HD for the xbla there isnt much i want to play and if i play them I prefer to have the older console to go with it.
My boys right now are playing sonic the hedgehog 2 on the thing, figure that out. and if thats the case wouldnt a genny for 20 bucks be more worth it to me.
I like the 360 but not as much as I like some of the other consoles out there. remember me selling my 360 is not just for a pcfx but other consoles as well.

lolmax!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I have to admit I wouldn't make that trade, but I can understand the curiosity and desire to get the PC-FX.

Wise words,but half the time you just have to ignore anything negative he says period,because its like hes in 24/7 Grumpy Smurf mode. I dont think he means to be,he just is.

The PC-FX is a true upgrade from the 360. I personally bought a PC-FX over buying a PS3 and I still stand firmly behind that decision. If you like really, really Japanese games it might really be the console for you. The PC-FX has given me many "Happy '90's Feeling" from playing it and I hope you enjoy your as much as I do.
Just make sure you get a FX-BMP for your PC-FX as you are going to need the extra save ram.

I can understand that, since there are about twice as many FX games I'm interested in than PS3 games.
but a FX instead of a 360? naaah.
-
Yeah, PC-FX>PS3, but PC-FX<360.
It's not even the STYLE of PC-FX games that make me say that, it's the fact that they're all in Japanese (and no, I don't want to learn :P).
-
Not a lot of games on the 360 have interested me until I saw the new Ninja Gaiden. But that aside, I think I'd take a PC-FX over a 360 simply for the fact that I could make new games for the PC-FX and I can't for the 360 without paying a ton of money.
-
PC-fx>PS3>360 :P

ok im keeping the 360 didnt meet my reserve. anyone on here have a 360? shoot me your gamertag.

I hate reserves. :evil: :evil: :evil:
-
ya so do i, I am sure i would have gotten more bids if I had a lower res or no res but thats the way it goes.
-
instead of using a reserve, have the starting price be the least amount that you're willing to part with it for, i.e. have your starting price be your reserve.
because reserves are really f*cking annoying. I know I will not bid on an auction with a reserve, and I know a lot of other people here feel the same way.
-
High starting prices also scare away potential bidders. Ebay is littered with auctions that nobody bid on, yet a similar auction that started at a penny will end at a far higher price. Personally, I don't give a hoot if there's a high starting price or a reserve; I just bid what it's worth to me. If I get it, I get it. If I don't, then the seller can go f*ck himself. :twisted:
-
I refuse to bid on auctions with reserves. I also refuse to list auctions with reserves.
