360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

Looks like it's coming sooner than we thought:

Hello XXX,

The 360 should be in the VIP Store in the next 2 weeks. Not sure how many
FPPs it will be at this time.

Thank you for being a VIP on PokerStars.

Regards,

Scotty

I also asked him about PS3s in my email, and replied asking again, but haven't heard back. This is pretty cool news, IMO, considering I could NEVER justify a next gen to my wife without this.

I just bought on last week....blah!

I'm not really a console gamer but isn't Wii currently the hottest one?

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

how many FPPs were they before?

They are the cheapest, so that might have something to do with them selling good. But hottest, man I hope not. From my experience playing the wii, it isn't that great. 360>wii hands down.

the wii is way too much like work. you gotta move n [censored]. If I'm playin vid games I don't wanna move.

note: I'm 23 5' 7" 145lbs. So I'm not some lazy fat ass

It depends on the game really, most of the sports games make you be active, but some (Zelda etc) can be played just as lazily as any other videogame with the remotes.

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

Stars, please get Wii and games also!

For Xbox, please have halo 1, halo 2, and Fusion Frenzy, Gears of War, Project Gotham Racing 3, and Fight Night Round 3 for starters

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

They'll be like 20-25k fpps.

25k points can buy you a $285 bonus.

the systems will be more points than that I'd think

Bonus is a poor value. I'd guess the systems will debut close to the $.016 value per fpp.

Also: PS3s plz plz plz.

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

WOOOHOOO!!!!

I just hope they have good games too...cause no point in getting it if I can't get all the good games for free too.

360 is like the weakest of the next gen, but better than nothing [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

If you have concierge (supernova), I think you can go to bestbuy or w/e, but the system/games, send the receipt to stars, and theyll pay you for it.

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

I wonder if there is any chance to getting laptops?

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

Hello grouch,

Play Station should be added in the next 2 weeks. Thank you for being a

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks

Silver or Gold, most likely silver.

Just email them and tell them that you want a "xstar" item and they will bump you up for the day so you can purchase it, then you drop back down to your normal level. They did that with me once...

I don't know, but in my email i asked about the PS3, the X360 and the Wii, and he only replied about the PS3....

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

Any update on cost yet? mmmmmm 360 <drools>

-
 

Anyone know what version of the 360 it will be? I hope they get the Elite version to the store...

Re: -
 

it seems like adding these gaming systems is a bad business decision for stars because people will be spending more time absorbed in videogameland and less time playing on their site. not that i'm complaining.

Re: -
 

i wish they'd have the Wii for their fpp store... f.ing thing is still tough to find in stores or online.

I think if you email them and ask real nice it wouldnt be a problem.

I think it is dumb anyway, but they might make more $$ because people pay rake to get to a higher level.

Re: 360s expected in Stars FPP store in two weeks
 

I hope they will add the Wii with the bunch also.

i asked about that. scotty said he doesn't think they will have elites this month. i didn't ask if they'd be getting them eventually, because my question specifically had to do with whether i should wait until they put the 360s up in the store (if they were going to have elites) or just use the concierge service now.
