Where's the opinion?  Do you understand the technical specifications of
an Xbox?  It's just a non-upgradable PC that's already a generation

Are there any games that are coming out on Xbox that will not be out on
PC eventually that you absolutely must have?  If not, then buying one is
a waste of money.
