Best Deal For 360?

[Final Maxim]

change of plan, i can afford a 360 atm but not a ps3 and im desperate to play gta4, so ill get a 360 then ps3 at a later date.

best deal around atm for 360 with gta4 and maybe forza?

also, what else should i be buying with a 360 other than live subscription.

do i need hd cable or anything? ta

Premium in argos , £180 with 2 games.
Get a hdmi cable if you've got a hdtv and your sorted.

I just bought the elite for 207 from littlewoods with a 20% discount voucher. It came with every cable you could need to hook up to a tv.

Only thing I can recommend would be a longer ethernet cable, messenger keyboard thingy and I need GTA4!!!

 

[Final Maxim]

how longs the ethernet cable with it?

think itll need to be around 4 metres to reach my router

also, what actual consoles am out, like whats the elite? which am the new boards etc

Not sure i think it's about a metre or so as I never opened it.

I have no idea what the differences in consoles are tbh. I bought the elite, because it sounded the best.lol.

You can get a 10metre cable in screwfix for a fiver lol.

The cable that came with mine was 5 metres

how much hd space would say forza n gta4 take up?

 

[wozzaa]

Virtually nothing. The 360 does not install games to the hard drive like the PS3.

Only really used for downloadable content.

 

[Final Maxim]

also, if i buy forza 2 2nd hand, can i use it online on my new live id? or do i have to buy it new with a new code or something?

 

[Dafthead]

Nah the game doesn't matter if it's 2nd hand or not.

A lot of my games are pre-owned

I'll take halo3 and gta for £28 more thanks. But that is pretty good.

 

[Chrisjk]

I think GTA is still almost nil stock atm, i sold one used yesterday for £40 at work.

Play.com have a really good offer on. Premium console and GTA IV for £200 so you are paying £10 for GTA

Only £10.

They don't!

As Dr Rollo says, Argos' deal of Premium, 2nd controller, Halo 3 and GTA4 for £228 seems very good.

 

[Final Maxim]

gfs ordered one from littlewoods as shes got a voucher or something.

got gta4 with it

only played on a 360 once n didnt think much of the pad, ive always had playstations, the pads get easy to use eventually?

 

[Chrisjk]

Its far more ergonomic than the ps2 controller (designed to fit your hand for the less wordy people) When you get used to it you'll hate the ps2 control.
