Sony loses all your data to hackers, Microsoft gives you free Xbox

Wow, they're really rubbing it in Sonys face.

Oh my god 4GB

How is that even possible

the computer helps with school,

the xbox takes it back.

Today I learned: People cant complain about literally anything*

*I already knew this

"free"

it is a promotional giveaway

just looked the price of windows 7, how is a so frekaing expensive

Finally they're giving out the Xbox 360 for the amount it's actually worth... nothing... oh, but go ahead and pay for online.

Plus, 4GB is pathetic. Why would they even bother putting a HDD inside the thing if it's only gonna be 4GB.

4GB is better than NoGB

64Gb>32GB>16GB>8GB>4GB>NoGB

Oh yeah, I forgot everyone sucks sonys dick even though they gave your info out all over the place.

My apologies.

upgrading to a real hard drive probably only costs $50 or so. pretty good deal for students that happen to need to get a new pc

this doesn't make sense. people can't complain about anything? yes they can...

Fucking hell you guys are negative cunts sometimes

Super negative filthy cunts

It's not really free when you don't have to pay for it you know. Cause you know ps3 and mac and ipod lol xbotz live oh shit. bom! hedshot! in ure faec.

the used market will be flooded. optimal situation if you're looking to buy..

Sounds like MS just has some stock backing up, and it's cheaper to give it away then harbour it in warehouses... makes good business sense (not to mention if any of those gets a Live subscription, MS will make it's money back pretty quick)

My apologies.

not really. as a very long time PS fan, im incredibly pissed about the security breach. but the games and the systems themselves have given me a lot of fun and enjoyment in the past decade or so. since I was accustomed to the original PS and PS2, it was natural that I purchased a PS3 expecting the same level of quality in entertainment. Im not saying anything about XBOX, and I hope you can now rest assured that your anger is a little over the top.
