Well, after getting an HDTV, everything just spiraled, and even though I just got an Xbox last Christmas, I started really wanting a 360. I knew I would almost certainly get one once Halo 3 came out, so we broke down and got one last month. We also got the HD DVD player with it. After about a month of having it, I think I can safely say it was a very good purchase. We constantly use the HD DVD player... I don't even know how we watched regular DVDs on our HDTV before, and we have already played many great games on the 360. The only problem is now there are even more games I want, when I already have tons of original Xbox games, DS games, and GBA games to play (not to mention some Wii games). It's alright though, I will never be bored :-)

Right now I'm playing Metroid Prime 3, and we picked up Viva Pinata yesterday. Metroid is a great game, as always. For some reason I can't play for too long though, because my hands will start to hurt. Viva Pinata is very strange and different, but I think that is a good thing. It's refreshing and I think it will be a good game to come to when I'm overwhelmed with how intense most of the other games I play are. In fact, I did that just yesterday after fighting an epic boss in Metroid. So, for now, I'm very happy playing all the games I have, and even though I'm excited about Halo coming out, I'm almost dreading it because I know it will take away a lot of time from all the other games I'm playing or have to play.
