I am thinking about getting a XBOX360 but I don't know if I should buy it now because the 720 is coming out soon and I need advice I'm thinking wait a while. What do you think?

the 180 is the handheld microsoft is making to compete with the DSI and the Newer PSP.

I'm not sure about the name. I've never heard anything official about it, but I would wait if it's coming out soon like you said.

The newer system is a possible make.

You gotta remember, with the new updates to xbox and its "Desktop", they can simply update the console other then release a new one. So until technology advances more in the gaming industry and different chips and hardware is needed, they can simply run out free software to those who already have an xbox.

Your better off getting the 360, cause even if they make a new console and if it's hand held, in my own eyes it wont be anything to special and I would personally rather have a TV Console then a hand held.

The Nintendo DSi or even just the DS, are pretty neat, Nintendo has been in the hand held area of Video Gaming since my brothers were born, They are in there 20s. Now that's just me saying that, Nintendo has been out longer but yea. They are the Original Hand Held Console kings ya know? I prefer to have a hand held from them then anything else due to the fact there games even now that they are on a console, they were originated for a hand held. So in my eyes the new DSi is alot better investment then a PSP or some hand held xbox.

Hope this helped sorta

get a 360. like somers said the 720 isn't coming out until 2012, so you might as well have a 360. plus, handheld games aren't that great unless microsoft is taking some big titles like halo and turning them into handheld games. that would be pretty sick. but just get a 360 for now. its more than worth it.

Get the 360, 720 won't come out for a while now and when it does its gonna be way too expensive to get right away. Not to mention it'll be sold out everywhere for another year.

Get one now.

A good 3-5 year wait is in store. I wouldn't wait that long. So get a 360, today!

Remember, the 720 (Or whatever it shall be named) will be quite expensive during the launch. The prices will decrease steadily.

No one wants to wait years to enjoy the latest technology.

They are not going to call it the 720... because if they did, game cube woulda named their wii, the game sphere. think about it.
