Question:

laptop or xbox 360?

for christmas i cnt decide between a xbox 360 or a laptop. can u help me ?

Answer:

Not every Laptop can play good games. It will have to be a high spec laptop to be able to handle gaming. And they are very expensive. Who ever is getting the presents for you might not have the kind of money for a laptop like I mentioned. If you have a PC already and you like playing console games then get a 360. It's way better than the Ps3 and you won't have to worry whether it can handle games or not.
I had presented myself with the same question, new computer or xbox360! I mention to a friend that I was going to get a new computer over the 360 and he asked why. I told him I could do all my gaming on the computer and so much more; however I ask you this. Do you have a computer already and just want a laptop because you think it'll be cool to have a wireless computer, are you a gamer that will like on line gaming! I chose to go with the 360 and never looked back! I was going to by a laptop and my friend suggested I get the 360 instead and honestly I love the hell out of my 360! Honestly the experience is by far the best I've had when it comes to gaming! Do not get a PS3, I own one and honestly Its an awesome blue-ray player and that's it! Xbox360 has the best everything! If your a gamer and already have a computer then go with the 360, if you have no computer then I'd say go with a computer since not having one in the house is a preposterous and not having a sink in the house you need it! I don't mean to sound like a gaming nerd, I'm a father of three and I only play at night for a while when there asleep, but it's how I spell relief, if you catch my drift!
depends on the laptop your getting. If your getting a cheap old laptop then get the xbox 360 but if you get a highend Laptop i would get the laptop than the 360 you decide?!?
a laptop is about 100X more versitle than an x box, you can't write a friend on one of those and a laptop can do everything a 360 can do (except maybe hook up to a tv) not to mention they can travel. However, if the person using this is into games you should know you will need to spend around $1500 to get a laptop equal to an xbox 360 for game use which is around $300 i think.
The Xbox 360 is great, but a laptop would be a better investment in the long run. Assuming you are in high school or college, this will help you write papers, look up factual information via internet, and a bucketload of other things that a 360 cannot do. A 360 is limited to having friends who also only have Xbox Live download movies, games, and TV shows and play with people online. However, with a laptop, you can buy PC games with other people online, and then you can use AIM or E-mail to send to virtually anyone. Not to mention, the Laptop is more portable. If you want to take it to go and play games, you already have a screen/tv to play it on, where a 360, you would have to stay connected to a TV or monitor, that has to be plugged in to work, and a laptop does not have to be plugged in for quite some time before the battery runs out. Sure the 360 is great, but a laptop would be a more practical investment.
