Just kind of silly to advertise, especially with "double the fun!"

Can't argue with that, since it is indeed odd to advertise it like that.

BUT I CAN HOLD BOTH CONTROLLERS AT THE SAME TIME, AND PLAY ON TWO SYSTEMS AT THE SAME TIME WITH TWO TVS AND TWO 360 ACCOUNTS.

I hope that ad's more about having more in the house or for family/housemates than being insane.

Gotta stay above the PS3 WW and surpass the Wii in the US somehow lol
The RRoD fiacso wasnt enough.

Sony deserves just as much shit as Microsoft though, seems like any launch era or any PS3 console manufactured around that period gets the yellow light of death/blu-ray drive death eventually.

Both companies need to fix that shit for next gen, not buying a next gen console till the coast is clear in that regard.

Depends on how much fun you want to have.

I want the maximum allowable human dosage. Figure out what will kill me, and then back if off a little bit.

They should do this with handhelds. LOOK, IT'S A FIRE EMBLEM 3DS, GO GET IT.

I just saw this on the dashboard too. The audacity of that statement. Really pretty insane.

There's probably someone on GAF who has most of the special edition GBA SPs Nintendo did.

There was a lot.

Who cares how they reach those numbers? Gotta beat those other systems at any cost lol.

IlludiumQ36 · Feb 28, 2013

If developers still made lan party friendly system-link games like in back in the day of the OG Xbox, that would be a fine idea.

GayForMaster · Feb 28, 2013

Brilliant marketing obviously.

SlipperyMoose · Feb 28, 2013

What are you to do after you buy the second one? I don't want that kind of responsibility.

antitrop · Feb 28, 2013

MUST DO AS AD SAYS. MUST. GET. SECOND. XBOX.

Neuromancer · Feb 28, 2013

I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I already have 2 Xboxes.

StalkerUKCG · Feb 28, 2013

Its the whole idea of multi room media centers and childrens bedrooms ect. I don't see it as a massive deal

Disclaimer. I have currently Have 5 Xbox's

I have like four GBAs, all of them bought after I already had a DS Lite and only one of them remotely special (20th Anniversary GB Micro <3). It just took me that many tries to realize/track down the best one (Backlit SP. Too bad mine has a dead pixel, so who knows I may have five GBAs at some point).

DidntKnowJack · Feb 28, 2013

Misread and bought a 2nd 3DS instead. Oops.

PreyingShark · Feb 28, 2013

Clearly they're telling you to buy me a 360 so I can play games with you.

Bururian · Feb 28, 2013

My CoD-addicted boss has three Xbox 360's across the house hooked up to 50+ inch HDTVs, just so he can play wherever he feels like.

Spongebob · Feb 28, 2013

Dem ads.

This is why I'll steer clear of Durango.

Yabdbadbdadbda · Feb 28, 2013

but i already have a Wii U

Cidd · Feb 28, 2013

No thanks. after mine broke for the 5th time I'm staying the hell away from Xbox 360, strictly PC and PS3 for me. Maybe a Wii U and PS4 in the future.

golem · Feb 28, 2013

I already bought a second one, but not by choice :damnyou:

What's so audacious about the statement? It's perfectly normal nowadays to have more than one unit of any tech gadget in a mature family.

but yeah, it is kind of weird

antitrop · Feb 28, 2013

Ya, technically I did buy two Xboxes.

Because the launch one fucking broke.

Unspeakable Evil · Feb 28, 2013

If the nextbox is can't play used games, then double dipping on same console will be fun.

Can I duct-tape them together?

Canon · Feb 28, 2013

Most people I know have bought at least two... not because they wanted to, it just broke.

kpjolee · Feb 28, 2013

I didn't know I was only getting half the fun with just one 360...Damn you MS.

Purchasing the season pass gives you double FUNXP.

I think we can safely say almost everyone who owned a 360 bought a 2nd, not because they wanted to.

Keslord · Feb 28, 2013

But I'm still busy taping together all the GameCubes I bought to make a Wii U...

What if I get two more? Would that be triple the fun, or is this a "three's a crowd" situation?

Three is never a crowd.

What happens when you click on it?

Your credit card gets charged for a new Xbox 360.

ReturnOfTheRAT · Feb 28, 2013

A console in different rooms in your house makes sense. It may plant a seed in some peoples mind that this is a possibility for them, so it might be a smart move to have it on an unsold part of the ad space.

I do. Game developers are the cool guys that make great games. Publishers are evil and make games worse. The publishers take the developer's money and treats them like slaves. The developers try to escape this tyranny but they don't have enough likes on their facebook page.

LuchaShaq · Feb 28, 2013

Have contemplated getting a 2nd one just so me and the gf could play co-op.

Sadly 95% of good co-op games are online only.

Baconsammy · Feb 28, 2013

You'll love it so much you'll do a 360 and moonwalk your ass right back into another one.
