Of course, having spent all of my life without an XBOX 360, and knowing that a few people that have played them with MS who said it was good but not that radically good, I think it will not kill me to wait a few more weeks until the rip off practices of shops start to dull down. While graphics and sound are reportedly good, the key part of any gaming is game play. The titles at launch do suffer here and are not up to the superb balanced play of halo and halo2. I have many pretty xbox games in the cupboard which all look good sound great but are dissapointing to play. So no rush to be first on this one. The second point is the quantity of games. Shelf space is always a good indication of a console's place in the market and xbox appears smaller and smaller each time I go in a shop.
