Microsoft Xbox 360

I won't be installing anything.

 

[kamy100]

If you load up any game it'll prompt you to update.

 

[matt1288]

50 Minutes for update, stupid shit Thailand internet.

 

[Tim7]

That means it'll only be about 2 minutes for the rest of us .

First and probably only game I'll put on mine is FIFA09. Mine put GH:WT on too.

 

[matt1288]

I'm thick, whats the purpose in installing the games?

Edit - is it just to let you play games without the CD? or are there other reasons which I'm to stupid to notice.

I'm thick, whats the purpose in installing the games?

Quicker loading times, smoother gameplay, less DVD noise, less wear on DVD laser..........

 

[matt1288]

Alright then I'll probably install COD5, and Guitar Hero when I get my hands on it.

 

[JimJoeC]

Less noise is the major thing for me, switch off my 360 and put on my PS3 and the volume has to go down quite a lot.

Plus less chance of RROD.

 

[matt1288]

I just have a question, how much space will installing a game be? because correct me if I'm wrong isn't a game around 4-6 GB? Means I don't have much space left on my 360.

 

[JimJoeC]

Yep, that's what I heard 4 - 6 giggedy.

That's why you should have the 120gb HDD

Looks nice and is very smooth. Installing Dead Space and FIFA.

What's the average install time?

How's the new setup??

 

[CW]

Took about 10 minutes to install FIFA, not bad at all.

I like the look of it too, nice and sharp.

You have to create your avatar once its all up and running, I think I got my guy spot on

 

[JimJoeC]

Nice, not too bad then.

Just have to wait untill five now, work suck ass on days like this.

 

[cowden_harley]

I got mine bang on, my mrs says he's my computer double.

New dash really is amazing, like a new system.

 

[Milanista]

CW, I think maybe less than 10 mins. Dead Space took me about 5 mins. Nice avatar Chris

Ok, FIFA took 9 minutes

Nice hat you have on

 

[JimJoeC]

Is it possible to make Hitler as an avatar?

Is it that customisable?

 

[Milanista]

Nope, its a bit like the Wii.

 

[JimJoeC]

Nope, its a bit like the Wii.

Don't know what the Wii is like!

But that's a shame as I'd like something random as fuck as my avatar. Maybe not Hoitler per se but something a bit contentious.

Oh well.

 

[matt1288]

Do you think its possible to kind of run around with your characters in a area? that would be cool! In a private chat, talking with your mates in a sort of play ground with your avatars.

 

[JimJoeC]

play ground with your avatars.

With dodgy looking geezers in macs hanging around outside?

That's called Home and you'll find it on the PS3 shortly
