I am a big fan of video games. I own an XBox 360. I have been playing on this console for a little over a year. What I like most about the XBox 360 is that I can play online against other players from all over the World. I can also make a friends list and play with my friends whenever I want. Also, during game play I can talk to the people I am playing with. It makes the whole gaming experience so much better.
Now there are some bad disadvantages about the XBox 360 as well. Which is why I'm posting this blog. First off, games cost $60 when the come out. Some games stay at that price forever. paying $60 for the game isn't too bad I guess. But what I think is kind of messed up is that you also have to pay for "extras" or "upgrades" to certain games. For example, Madden NFL 10 just came out today, I had to pay $60 for the game but if I want to use some cheats I have to pay for them! Now I don't think that is right. One of my favorite games I love to play is Call Of Duty World At War. I had to pay $60 for that game as well. Every once in a while they come out with add ons for the game. So every time they come out with new levels for the game I have to pay around $10.
Call Of Duty came out with 3 map packs since it released. So from between the time the game was released and now, I have had to pay around $30 extra for add ons! So all together I have paid $90 for the game! I think that some things for the XBox should be free since you have already paid enough for the game.
