I searched everywhere in UK for a few days to find one then seen one on ebay, in USA, so bought it buy it now price just so I had one.

MS will be releasing larger capacity drives later down the line, not that it stopped me buying one from the states paying 30 quid more than its supposed to be in UK.

I spoke to Gamestation and they said they have had no hard drives delievered since launch date in December !!

Also, not a lot of games are backwards compatible and I would be suprised if Toca 3 worked.

I got mine at Virgin a couple of weeks ago, and they had just had a pile in. The best bet is to go to non "gamey" shops, so HMV, Woolies, Toys R Us etc

I know that Woolworths in Leeds had 2 premiums in for a mere £280 each, and about 7 crappy ones for £210.

I suggest you do a bit more research as it is fairly common knowledge that a) you need to download an emulator for every Xbox game you want to run on the 360, b) you need a hard drive to do this, and c) not every game currently has an emulator.

There is a list of compatible games on the Xbox website.
