should I get a 360

[remal]

I have the chance of getting a 360 second hand from my local game shop. I know the owner as all is fine with the console. will still have a warrenty, but its the one without the hard drive. cost 150 quid

does that sound good?

I can get a few more quid off s well. I always try my best and use this shop a lot

if so what the are first games I should get?

I think the price is about right. You really need a hard drive though (£70) and the first game should be Project Gotham 3 - I've also got Call of Duty 2 which is fantastic as well.

[:J:]

Price sounds great, go for it, just get ready for mega problems getting hold of a headset or a hard drive !!

IMO, COD2 was great, then I completed it and it now just sits in the box

Online pay is dire, there is a glitch to let you play larger games but in my experience it was a total lag fest

Wait for GRAW

PGR3 is a must.
Tiger Woods is good if you like golfing games.

my local shop has a harddrive if i want it. Ok sorted i think i will go there after work

cheers

i think you just need to upgrade the account.

My account had expired so i made a new one.

It worked easily.

Just plug the 360 into the router/pc as you did the x-box, and go to 'retrieve gamertag from x-box live'. You'll need to enter a couple of details (your old gamertag), and then prove it is you (they ask for credit card no.s etc.), and that's your account transferred.

You can still run Live from your original x-box (just as well, cos Forza runs like a dog on the 360), but you won't be able to 'manage' your account from anything but the 360.

Edit: I think at the very least you'll need a memory card for the 360 to get on Live - obviously, hard-drive is the preferred option though.
