There's a few I still want too; Lego Star Wars Complete Saga, CoD4, etc. I even played that free Carcassone XBLA game last night and enjoyed it. Superb console, and I haven't properly taken it online more than once yet, either! This is the thing, if christmas came in the middle of the year, id have got one. There are good games on it, and there are games i want on it. But the only games im anything like excited by are on the Wii. Admittedly beyond the games i listed before, and No More Heroes, there's not much im after on the Wii or that i know about at any rate. Thing is i know what im like, if i dont get one now, i'll end up buying one out of my own pocket at the end of january Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGERMAN Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 360 GET! It's a HDMI model too, which means fuck all to me for likely the next couple of years, but it does mean it's less likely to red ring Eds sent me a Scart cable for it already (that ive not paid for yet :whistle: ) and a mate (Spatular) has given me a VGA cable, which is looking like it will fit my moniter, but i'd have to move it to next to my telly to get any sound out of it. For some reason my parents gave me the money to buy it for myself for christmas, and get it sent to my house. I've taken that as carte blanche that it's cool to open it and play it for at least a week before i mention that its arrived. Now i just need some games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 This is getting silly, it must just be me who hasn't got one?! Are the elite versions worth the extra cash? Not sure how much space the downloadable games take up. I doubt I'd ever bother with films to be honest. Play.com seem to have a pretty decent Premium deal (although I'd rather PRG4 over Forza). If its still going on Feb I think I'll have to get one with my bonus... I'll pop soon if I can't start playing 360 games!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Yay Ben, Make sure you send all the code bollocks off to get free arcade games...(mine havnt arrived yet, but im sure they will) and also make sure you steal games for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a premium, or xbox 360, or Pro, or whatever they're being called this week. £220 from Shopto.com its the 20 gig, but they've added an HDMI slot and a heat sink (sp) to stop quite so much breakage And Sam, i will be ordering those live games, its one of my tasks for today, not sure who's getting the second set tho. Everyone i know who's got a 360 has either got most of the included games, or just wouldnt play them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents said that they'd buy me one, but I've finally decided not to now. I've been looking at the upcoming 360 games for next year & there's nothing that tickles my fancy to the tune of £200. I have waay too much PSP/Wii/DS/PS3 games to play anyway. The 360 would just gather dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 360 would just gather dust. You have a PS3 though so I can understand your point of view. I don't have either (just a Wii) and really feel like I'm missing out on some great games. No way can I miss out on GTA and Resi next year!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Cool, I'm finally getting a 360! Going to wait until my Jan bonus though so I have a month to go... Looking out for deals at the moment... (Ed, that means you ) I guess its worth picking up an Elite for the extra £50 or so? Currently I only have a SDTV, does the Elite come with a cable for old school TV's too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 It comes with composite, but you'll want to get an RGB Scart really so that you'll be able to read the text in some games! There aren't really any deals about at the moment, but there should be some in January! I'd say the Elite is worth the extra as it comes with the audio lead, HDMI cable, more storage and of course it's black. But it's by no means essential.

retroed Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Just read through this thread, and it was amazing how quickly a bunch of us decided we had to have 360s! It meant the end of an era, RIP DSWiiFi, but I think we're better off for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
