Who are we kidding, no way in hell im going to win.
Demaar @ Mar 17th 2008 9:50PM
Do keep in mind that isn't the grand prize though. It's the grand prize RUNNER UP. Which I'd totally prefer over the grand prize.
I was already going to buy the Blue Dragon DLC, this spurred me to do it sooner. OK so instead of 1 in a hojillion chances of winning I have 2, but still... if you never try you'll never succeed.

"Look at it. It's sexy, no?"
Definitely a no. If they'd stuck to the elite black instead of that grey it'd look a lot better.
deaftly (Brawl - 1075-0467-4222) @ Mar 17th 2008 3:53PM
Im pretty sure that is an elite, just looks greyish because of the lighting.
Cal @ Mar 17th 2008 3:55PM
It is an elite, and yeah I suppose the lighting could have killed the colours and faded the black, as the one on Mass Effect's site (they have the same compo, but world wide) is black with a stronger blue used for the images.
FrankTheCrank @ Mar 17th 2008 4:18PM
Previous posters are correct. The Elite has that ugly Dell Optiplex grey plastic.
I just hope that when it RROD's, Microsoft doesn't clean the image off. LOL.
Vegnagun bwf @ Mar 17th 2008 3:54PM
I hope I win so that every time I look at my xbox I can be disappointed in the mako levels.
DemonGSides @ Mar 17th 2008 3:55PM
Just what X3F need, more people who register to post only in prize giveaways.
Trickob @ Mar 17th 2008 4:30PM
if i win a 360, then i'll have more reason to post in that section ;p
krazy @ Mar 17th 2008 3:57PM
Damn I'm bald so i can't win it?
Trickob @ Mar 17th 2008 4:33PM
lol, sucks to be you! McElroy must be prejudiced against the balds...
alu @ Mar 17th 2008 4:00PM
hmm.. why not put the art on the other side of the xbox so people that put it veritcal or horizontal could see it.
Arnie @ Mar 17th 2008 4:35PM
Well it does have it on both the sides. The other side is Commander Sheppard
Orion_of_Chaos @ Mar 17th 2008 4:01PM
It's a pretty nice looking system, can't wait to read about it getting "cleaned" when it decides to RRoD.
NATO_Duke @ Mar 17th 2008 4:05PM
Just couldn't resist could you?
Orion_of_Chaos @ Mar 17th 2008 4:53PM
Sorry, it's been a long couple of weeks at work, so I enjoy getting a few good pokes in every now and again. Also, a few not so good pokes.
Matt B @ Mar 17th 2008 4:56PM
hahaha!!!1
Deck @ Mar 17th 2008 4:03PM
Oh its gorgeous! GORGEOUS!
Zoidberg Jesus (a.k.a. Jebo) @ Mar 17th 2008 4:18PM
you, sir, are correct.
NATO_Duke @ Mar 17th 2008 4:03PM
Pretty nice gift there. I am sure the guy who just registered to win this as his only post ever will love the website, which name he can't remember, for it.
Anticrawl @ Mar 17th 2008 4:07PM
There should be a previous 100 post limit for those who enter these contests. Pretty lame that folks who never contribute can win.
ChooChooCharlie @ Mar 17th 2008 4:15PM
Completely agree with both your and NATO_Duke's comments. That pisses me off so much.
Mr Khan @ Mar 17th 2008 4:33PM
Aye, this seems to come up often, but while it would be nice to reward those loyal to the Joystiq family (and narrow the field by a significant amount), but it would also feel wrong to be exclusive
I comment on X3F once in a blue moon, but i will enter for this. No room in the budget for a 360, but a free one would be just dandy, especially for those few 360 games that I couldn't live without
ChooChooCharlie @ Mar 17th 2008 4:36PM
OK just counted the comments.
As of this post:
Out of 741 posts, only 159 have an avatar or name that I recognized from a previous post. So, about 79 percent are newly registered freeloaders.
And, yes, I am bored
NATO_Duke @ Mar 17th 2008 4:52PM
ChooChooCharlie - wow...did you seriously just do that?
ChooChooCharlie (Brawl: 1504-5357-9285) @ Mar 17th 2008 5:27PM
Yes, yes I did. *hangs head*
Pureshooter @ Mar 17th 2008 4:24PM
I beat cheeks everywhere.
Neal @ Mar 17th 2008 4:43PM
That looks cool
Mighty Shockwave @ Mar 17th 2008 5:04PM
Shweeeeeeeeeet...
Too bad I always keep my 360 horizontal.
Alex R @ Mar 17th 2008 6:07PM
Same here. Don't wanna risk scratching the discs like I did in my PS2...
Crusty Magic @ Mar 17th 2008 5:07PM
The art work on there looks sweet, I want this =D
Maverick Saturn @ Mar 17th 2008 5:11PM
Wait, is that Jesus on the side stretching out his arms to his brothers and sisters
Dravir @ Mar 17th 2008 5:19PM
Just started playing Mass Effect, couldn't be happier. Must have as much ME S.W.A.G as possible!
jakeharper @ Mar 17th 2008 5:37PM
How could I win ?

Quit spamming, asshole.
bsm0f0 @ Mar 18th 2008 11:50AM
rockband, here I come!!!!
swankymcfly @ Mar 18th 2008 2:18PM
Here I am at work again, slaving away for a crazy little balding man, and seeing that sweet 360 is about the only thing keeping me at my computer.
Gaber @ Mar 18th 2008 3:36PM
This would make me the envy of all my imaginary friends.
cytorak @ Mar 18th 2008 5:25PM
This would shut up my friends who keep hounding me to get a 360 for Halo.
Pretty please?
renzsm @ Mar 19th 2008 12:41AM
My best friend is getting married soon. I would absolutly love to be able to give him this gift as a weddding present. He is set on buying a PS3 and I am slowly converting him to XBOX. I am cuurently playing Mass Effect now and I know it is a game he will spend Hours on.. The topper of it all is the his soon to be wife will hate it and that makes me so happy.
Gaber @ Mar 19th 2008 8:57AM
It would make me eat more fish and less steak.
Juddmensch @ Mar 19th 2008 2:41PM
Wow, just having a 360 in the house would be a massive upgrade.
Gaber @ Mar 20th 2008 8:27AM
I might become a Microsoft Apologist
Kevin Starr @ Mar 20th 2008 1:28PM
I am ancient and would really like to move into this century console wise. I need it.
David @ Mar 20th 2008 5:56PM
Dang, I would love to give this as a gift for my sons B-day
Dave T @ Mar 20th 2008 8:01PM
My home entertainment unit would then be MASSIVE!
cytorak @ Mar 21st 2008 7:06PM
This would massively affect my current lack of a 360 so I can actually play Mass Effect.
