Okay, I just made that up...

(the PS2 train Simulator story threw me off for a bit :) )

But what if...

The X-Box were to be released before Christmas (say October) this year, with a price tag of 150.00 quid...

and to have a full compliment of games avalible at launch?

Would anyone here change their minds and pick up the box?

Would anyone take another look at the new machine?

Or would you stick with what you've got... keeping with the PS2 or waiting for the GC?

I'd send out an army of koopa troopas and get them to attack the X-Box shipments...

I'd also stick with a Gamecube... I wouldn't get an X-Box for a fiver if it meant I couldn't play SSmashB: Melee and Starfox...

I'd wait for a GC for 2 reasons:

1) I've all ready chosen 5 GC games for GAD :-D

and

2) I have no interest in the X Box whatsoever

Isn't it great in the land of "what if's".

Just another city in cloud cuckoo land that we love to spend so much time :-)

I'd buy an XBox, if that were to happen. Save for a couple more months and get a GC at launch as well!

It's not going to take much to persuade me to get an XBox, and a price tag like that would certainly make the difference!
