It all really depends on where it's going to live and what you're going to be doing with it.FlipChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09449939046593105926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36939759.post-17637737280017530132008-03-17T15:36:00.000+00:002008-03-17T15:36:00.000+00:00So you recommend the Xbox360 for GTA4!
