The 250GB Xbox 360 with Kinect I bought last weekend did not come with an HD cable, which I thought was shocking.

Only a 3 phono connection and scart block. Very handy....

Luckily I had an Xbox to VGA cable spare.
yes noticed that too, found it ok with the first version but quite disturbing that they still do it now.

Their comment about it was this:

- Some people are pleased with a £10 cable, but others would want a £100 cable, not including the cable reduces the costs and people can get whatever cable they want.


Which I think is quite ok, I have £7 cables at spare so I don't mind it actually. The printers without USB leads however mad
I'm sure it does reduce costs... for them. I didn't see the saving passed on to me!

I played my sisters Kinnect, sports and adventures. I preferred the sports one and from first impressions seems allot better than the wii.

Holy thread resurrection blade! hehe

Be sure to get the Kinect Sports, the boxing, athletics and bowling in there are amazing fun. (esp the speed rush bowling thing)

Also it captures pieces of video instead of pictures hehe.

In Adventures I like the River Rush thing (on a raft), the game on a cart and the one with a ball to hit a wall.
