Microsoft Xbox 360

Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

My local Game don't have any mate :(

Hmmm... Well, I've got a choice between £70 from the US or £100 from Germany (including postage but obviously excluding customs\VAT charges)...

Which should I go for?
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

Personally I would go with the US one as it will still probably work out cheaper even with the customs charges.
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

Cheers, that's what I've done. £77 it went up to in the end, but still, I don't mind paying £7 more to get it earlier... Just hope I don't get taxed to death.

I'll be seeing you all on XBOX Live soon then (when I figure out how to set that up, if my dad can play Links on it too, how to pay for it for 12 months and where to get it cheapest)!

Where'd you get it from mate, that Videogamesplus.ca site? Someone on the XBox forums ordered a HD from there, and it only took about 5 - 6 days to come. Not bad - not sure what shipping they used tho
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

I never had an xbox i was always a ps2 fanboy really but this 360 and xbox live is the fucking best. Only got PDZ thought, but i'd like to kill some of you soon.

eBay :) Apparently it's going to be marked down as a "gift" and so I shouldn't be charged anything by customs.

(They said that about my PSP though...)

Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

there like 10 in virgin and like some in gamestation,proberly more popular round your areas,im gettin mine soon :>,whats the best game LIVE???
AND is the new fifa good
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

Best game on LIVE depends on what you like but I think that PGR3 is the game that will get the most play for me

And FIFA is FIFA, everyone knows I think its shite
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

it depends what kinda games you like playing.

Everyone thinks PGR3 is amazing, and it probably is, and its sposed to be excellent online.

but if your like me and dont like car games, then as good as it maybe, its just not gonna be fun.

Im hoping the campaign mode on PDZ is good.

Going to blackpool 2moro to pick mine up, hopefully

Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

My VGA cable arrived this morning, from Gameplay (just as I was about to bid £30 for one, I've got it for the original £12)... Not *that* impressed though I have to say, I think S-VIDEO and a widescreen telly would have been a much better option. The cars in PGR3 don't seem to be anti-aliased too much...

Having said that, I can't afford a £60 wireless network adapter now that I've spent tons on enough cables to let me switch between PC and XBOX 360 on the one monitor, so I'll make do with it. I think I must be missing something though, because of the three people who've come to have a look at it, they think it's "stunning" and beats the PS2 "to a bloody pulp".

Must just be getting over-critical in my hair-thinning old age :(
 
Re: XBox 360 - Official Thread

So the only game i've got so far is PGR3. With Christmas coming up, i'm getting kinda itchy to get my hands on a new game...

However, i don't know whether to buy one of the launch games right now or wait a while for something like Dead or Alive 4, or NBA2k6 since i'm a Basketball fan...

Do any of you guys think that there's any other MUST HAVE game apart from PGR3 in the lauch line up? Played Call of Duty 2 on the PC, so i'm ruling out that one...

Any thoughts?
