i want a wii (they really need to change the name of the console!)

im usually a big sony fan, and was waiting for the ps3 .......and for a major price drop

but the wii has taken gaming to another level and made it more fun, its getting rave reviews and i seriously want it....its not even that expensive compared to its competitors.

maybe in the summer, it would be too distracting right now. but by summer i might want the ps3.....still not made my mind up!

[color=magenta]i think i need some retail therapy after being in a state of constant revision i think i deserve to hit the sales, but dont think il be going today i wnt to do clothes shopping and footwear shopping so im gna wait till the new year,

OXFORD STREET be aware of Exquisite and Family[/color]

Just 'borrowed' a PC for a few days. :twisted:

I was considering the Wii aswell but since my other expenses, I think I'll take a rain check. Well that and the fact that it is amost impossible to get hold of...

my last and first console was the Gamecube, a brilliant little number which was totally ignored by the masses...)

The name wii isn't that bad, except for when you want to buy one and ask the person at the counter "can I have a wii please", I'm sure they'll understand :P.

I'm also a big sony fan and have the ps1 and ps2, and I think the ps3 is going to be alot better but the price is way too high and I think the xbox 360 has better graphics than the ps3. This is what gamespot have to say, "You'd think that the PS3 versions would be exactly the same or slightly superior to the Xbox 360 versions, since many of these games appeared on the 360 months ago, but it seems like developers didn't use the extra time to polish up the graphics for the PS3. We found that the Xbox 360 actually had better graphics in the majority of the games we compared."

Also at the moment it looks like the xbox 360 has better games than the ps3. If you can afford it then go for the ps3, if you can't then for the xbox 360. If you do buy the xbox 360 then buy a new one and not a second-hand one as the earlier consoles have hardware problems. Wii is much cheaper but has rubbish games, and if you have a small room it wouldn't be ideal to play your wii in it as you will have to move around......alot!

360 has been out a year. The developers have had a year to figure out the nooks and crannies of the system. with th PS3 it is not the case.

In the future who knows which will have beter graphics.
But the Sony pads are utter turd. dual shock or sixaxis. both are have poor ergonomics.

[b][color=indigo]The sales were crap, didn't buy anything apart from some foundation which wasn't even in the sale. Next sale starts 2mmrw so itz gona be more packed.[/color][/b]

same here the sales were nothing special, i ended up buying stuff that were not in the sale .
i just got u early for nothing :evil: .

It's always just a name though isn't it?

I never buy anything with a real discount.

Normally the trash is discounted, the decent stuff the same price.

So I just don't bother. Hence me buying things before the 'sales' started. Just checked the prices today, now that the 'January sales! Massive savings!' banners are up, and the prices are still the same!

Better to look for end-of-season discounts from mid-January. I have always done pretty well in House of Fraser.

[b][color=indigo]My uncle went to currys to see the price of a washing machine and then went after the sales. They have a sign up saying 75% discount and the orginal price of the machine had gone up. So everyone thinks there getting a bargin when they see the 50% or 70% sign but infact they are paying more![/color][/b]

Only PS3 would do for me.

Nothing else comes even close.

ah but i didnt buy from the sales and i didnt go out for the sale

i went to get my new fone.....happened to see some nice tops (but only 1 was on sale...and i had my eye on that one for time)

[color=magenta]my parents just came back from oxford streets and the amount of bags in my passage is crazy, mum is a fanatic when it comes to shopping, dad just carries the bag and in return mum gave him two sweets lolz

but apparently they found some really good bargains, my lil brother got loads of clothes and my lil sis gt loads too

im going to go after my exams inshaAllah [/color]

I went yesterday with my sisters and bought a pair of boots, saved 15 quid, so that's ok. Clothes wise didn't like anything. The shops are full of all those T-shirt style long tops or those lycra dresses- yuk.

lol what did i say? :shock:

In the last week I've been in Manchester's shopping centres (Trafford etc), B'ham's City centres (Bullring)...and I've come back home (London) today with absolutely nothing...I dislike rush, chaos and long queues.

[color=magenta]i am officially off the sales.

Hmmph, so stupid and boring, i went yesterday and people treated the clothes as though it was food, there was a hype over nothing, i hated it, one disadvantage of being a bengali is ur shorter than the rest of the ppl so ur looking at people as though they are mountain tops,

however i went into all the sports shops and wow guys have it lucky there are so many nice clothes for you guys[/color]
