Catching Up With the Times: To Buy or Not to Buy an XBox 360
| Meredith Sweet |
Being a slow gamer is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, I never tire of “classic” games. Getting old with my games means I look at them in new ways, learn new things all the time, and rediscover the roots of some of my favorite genres and game series. But the flip side of that is that while everyone else is experiencing awesome graphics, incredible story, moving music, and increased interaction, I’m stuck in the slow lane, unable to join in the fun.
It would be easy enough to catch up with the times: just a buy a new “next-gen” game system. The question is, which one? If I were to shell out for any of the newest consoles, though, it would probably be an XBox 360. Still, I won’t buy it. I can’t buy it. It’s a Microsoft product. For Mac users (and I should qualify that by saying “switched to a Mac,” so it’s not as if I don’t have any PC experience at all), something with the Microsoft name on it is like death in a box.
