Default What good friends are all about.

Ok here is the story.

A big thanks goes out to my old buddy Kristoph. This guy and I go way back. We started hanging out at a local RC car track when that was pretty much all I could afford to race. Anyways long story short he has always been there in emergencies like when my Wife had to go to the hospital and I was out of state to my kids being born blah blah. Anyways we always joked around about if we ever came into a decent amount of money we would have to drop some cash on our friends and buy nice presents for them "you know the win the lottery ideas" Anyways I get this call last night and he is all happy his condo sold and I was happy for him hopeing he will get a new car or somthing sweet. He wants to come hang out and play some video games, so I said buzz over as my girl should be home about the same time and she can cook up some grub and hang with us.

Well anyways he shows up and gave me the "you know about that coming into a little cash thing we always joke about?" And I said yeah, and he says come get your presents! *LOL* I was like OH ____. Go outside and he has sitting in the seat a brand new xbox 360 elite with command and conquer, virtua fighter 4, wireless adaptor, extra controllers etc... I was totally floored as that is a pretty hefty chunch of change. He also purchased one with the same basic gear for another buddy in our little group that is always there for us. Man that just goes to show how **** cool good buddies can be in this ____ty world. Came at a good time as I have been feeling pretty annoyed about people in general always wanting and taking but never giving back anything. Anyways just gotta say, you kick ___ man, that was the coolest gift anyone has given me that was not related to me.

Now you can do yourself a favor, and sell the PS3, and buy more games for the 360!

Is that a MD player?

Dood it is not a ____ing match between ps3 and xbox and not what this post is about being as almost every forum has some guy trying to make any video game post about xbox vs ps3, cracks me up.. I really do not care what your opinion is about the ps3 and no I am not going to sell it because you do not like it hahaha. It is a killer box and I love it just as much as I like the xbox Both have there upsides and downsides, big deal! *LOL* I dig both units and enjoy both. Tired of anyone with an xbox trying to slam ps3 owners when you have NO experience with a ps3 other than you played one at walmart and your little xbox buddies all say "xbox rules man and ps3 sucks" I could care less *LOL* Go back to your games and be happy sheesh.

haha nice Well the plan was we would all get one with the 300 horse engines and aero package. All 3 of us got to see one in person and I got a bunch of pics. A local owns it and it is simply amazing in person / has all the carbon fiber options. After looking it over from top to bottom they are making a fortune off those babies... even though it is about the most pure sports car on the planet for that money I would like a little comfort like ac and audio like a lotus but yeah... the atom rules anything on the street Man I dream of both cars... I could afford an elise but want an exige which I cannot afford

I dont want you to sell it. You do whatever you want with it. Im merely stating a fact. PS2 had some awesome exclusives (for a while, then those exclusives, became not so exclusive I.E. Resident Evil, MGS, GTA). PS3 lost those exclusives.

Saying that, MGS4 looks awesome. Other than that tho, the PS3 (to me) is just a cheap blue-ray player.

Your still trying your hardest to make it a ____in match between the two on this post and I am still laughing my **** off. I own both, I know what both can do. I like both units and both rock. Enough said as I am not going to enter your little VS. match *LOL*
