Xbox 360

The Xbox 360 is the second game console produced by Microsoft Corporation and is the successor to the original Xbox.
If there was a Xbox portable would you buy it.
" Not if it ends up like the PSP. "Um what? The PSP is fucking awesome. I would definitely buy an Xbox handheld.
" Not if it ends up like the PSP. "Exactly. The PSP went wrong because it tried to hard to be like a console and as a result most of the games were just PS2 ports. The DS is underpowered, but at least it does something unique.
" I have a PSP and I am very unhappy with it, it simply doens't do anything interesting (although it has good games) "Isn't that the whole point? You buy a console or handheld to play games. And I would consider a built in media player/ internet browser and online market place interesting enough. What else would you want?
When I think of a "Xbox Portable" all that comes to mind is a Sega Game Gear.
No, I wouldn't buy one.
Depends on so many factors. Most importantly, game support. Then battery life, size and portability, weight, aesthetics, usability... I could go on. Basically, if was any good, of course I would. You can't just ask if I would buy it without some kind of condition. For example, if you asked "would you buy an Xbox Portable if is cost $300," I would probably say no. Of course, even that would depend on how good it was.
I really wouldn't need one. As much as I love my PSP and my DS both I dont really play either one of them as much as I should considering the money I have spent on them. Having said that though I would more then likely definately get one immediately because I am an idiot who spends far too much of his income on video games. I would buy it play with for the day then put it in the chest I keep all my portable gear in and there is would rot.
I barely play my NDS as it is. I'd pass.
I don't know what killer feature or killer app it would have to even compete. The DS has touch and the PSP has its multimedia functions + almost all of Sony's IPs. Indie games have already been kind of a wash and everything Zune can offer has been done before.
I will refuse to do so, but think about the possibilities of having one. Then I will realize that I don't like playing games while traveling and end up not buying one since I have everything gaming-wise on a console or on this handy laptop. Then again, if they included a few XBLA games, hm. Maybe. Maybe.
Some things that would make me decline and agree.
Games- If they made one, it would need many good games, that neither PSP nor DS have. (not saying they dont have good games, but not many, unless you like RPG's a lot.)
Battery life- Has to be able to go about at least 8-10 hours before recharge.
Graphics- not a big thing, but at least up to par with PSP.
Extra Features- if it had online play and internet, music and photo capability, and two thumbsticks or nubs
