i had this problem and got the 360. The Wii just doesnt have the games and the release schedule is not that great. I am not gonna get a Wii till metroid and mario galaxy are released. the DS gets me more excited than the Wii and thats no joke..

 

the only downside with the 360 is the rip off wireless adaptor. i refuse too pay £60 for something which should of been free.

 

i got 3 month xbox live subscription and love it man!

Got my 360 today! Game did Premium + Smackdown vs Raw + PGR3 + Live Arcade + Extra Official Wireless Controller for £300. Only had 1 360 left, the box was bashed to bits so talked the guy into giving me £10 worth of reward points. Then went to Argos and bought Oblivion and Ghost Recon.

 

Loving it so far! PGR3 and GRAW are great, Raw is ok. Just loaded up Oblivion, looks pretty cool

 

Got 2 1 month Xbox Live vouchers and 1 48 hour voucher so that should keep me online for a while!

Cool, but if you like Live, buy a 12 month subscription, it's cheaper.

Switch, whats your gamertag? We should be having a forum game of PGR3 soon, so add everyone! And join the 360 thread. It's where the cool people hang out. :santa:

cheers for the invite :grin:

 

Not got a gamertag yet. Gotten myself hooked on Oblivion and spent the whole time i was supposed to be setting up Live on that!

 

I'll put it in my sig when i get it :)

Cheaper than free? Those were just the bundled live vouchers, gonna get a Live card when they run out. Handy really, means i can spend the money Live would have cost me on another game :grin:

I think those free things are trials, meaning you can only start an account using those but not add time onto it. You get 1 month free Live when you make an account as standard.

Cheaper than free?

 

Yes, they pay you to take it off them .;)

 

Seriously, it's much cheaper than buying enough games to keep the 48 hour free trial running non-stop, or buying Live by the month, or for 3 months.

yeah, like the fish said, not as skint as if i bought a ps3

and the wii is actually more expensive at the moment, with controllers being really expensive, virtual console, and no games at bargain prices, so i will be less skint

The war will only be between the PS3 and the Wii. You guys only love the 360 because of online play and it has games in where you 'shoot people'. Get lives, it isn't real, don't get worked up over nothing is what I say.

 

It's more likely to be between 360 and Wii with the way the ps3 is sellnig at the moment, but things can stil change.

 

"Get lives", what bullshit is this?

There is no "war" and even if there is, it bears no relevance to gamers...any animosity between console manufacturers only leads to better games for everyone. We have nothing to complain about. Taking sides is pointless and of no use to anyone.

yeah, why does it matter who wins the 'console war'. just buy the damned things and see which one you prefer, instead of sweating about whether nintendo will outdo microsoft in sales.

Totally correct my red font friend, as I found out by only owning a Gamecube last time round (kind of down to cash though, I'm working now). Now I buy whatever I feel like playing.

As gamers we SHOULD keep an eye on what's selling more. If in the case of the GameCube, developers pull out support, and the console gets less and less good games.

You are an i.d.i.o.t. Wii's are so much better than 360's. Wii's have better games! If ya sell it (you nob) I hope someone offers 1p sucka!!

 

That's what he was saying, and at the moment, the 360 has better games. I'm very sure that this will change ones the wii get's more software, but there really aren't enough top quality games out on the wii right now to justify your claims.

But remember if you don't have a HD tv they arn't going to look as good.

 

My friends that have 360's dont have HDTVs but it still looks really good. Does it really make it a whole lot better?

Posted
Yes you are my friend. Very cool, but very skint.

 

It's cheaper than the Wii if you get a good bundle. You can get a 360 with 2 games and an extra controller for £300. A Wii with 2 games and an extra wiimote/nunchuck is £305.

It makes the picture so much sharper and clearer, but it still lookks amazing on a normal TV. I have to use a 14" beast and it still looks really good, the text is a little bit small though, when I use it on the 21 incher I have it looks even better.
