I thought this was an interesting article. What do you guys think?

Why sell your previous console when you get an upgrade? If you're in a financial position where you need that extra $50-70 to afford the upgrade, should you really be upgrading, or would it be better to wait for the next paycheck. I mean, if one doesn't hold any intrinsic value to it, then they're at liberty to do as they please, but the guy in the article sounds legitimately attached to his 360, so the decision should be pretty obvious.

Irrelevant. Folks find ways to get what they want if it really matters to them. I'd say I'm poor. I've done the math on what I'd need to actually get myself an xbone. It's a really hefty price.

I know, if I really wanted it though, I'd get it. But it's not worth it to me. The cost to buy it, with the time I have on my hands these days, combined with the fact that 90% of stuff coming out these days blows ass, just doesn't warrent a purchase.

The shame thing about supposedly owning lesser tech.

Fuck off with that tripe. Ya don't have to feel anything over what you can or can't get.

I have an Xbox one and still play my 360 regularly. I've done a Skyrim, full mass effect trilogy and most of a Fallout new Vegas playthrough in the time since I got an XB1 (December)

I mean, I'll probably sell it after backwards compatibility because it'll be pretty redundant an just taking up space. But there's nothing wrong with having one.

you're pretty silly if you think owning a console determines whether you're poor or not

I agree with you.

By the way, getting an Xbox One in less than 2 months.

How does that make you poor?

I dunno. That's why I posted this article here to see if people could possibly explain this guy.

I mean hurr durr. I still have my original Xbox, I must be dirt poor.

Madden release day is the toughest day of the year for one reason and one reason only. I, Big Cat, in the year 2015, still own an X-Box 360.

I think someone should tell him Madden on the 360 is the same exact game as it is on the Xbone along with the other years as well.

Why are you downgrading?

Lol, guess that makes more poor if I own a cassette player and my PS1 to play my old stuff.*

*Disclaimer

Uh no, it doesn't

I prefer playing Halo 3 and Halo 4 on the 360 and don't have any plans to sell my old console.

I only copy and pasted the article title. I don't say Xbox like that. Jeez.

How's the MCC when it comes to those games?
