Keep all 360 discussion in this thread if possible

However, I don't mind there being some seperate threads for the games.

Mmm.... shiny consumer products...

[Kav]

I'm still not sure about this one, perfect dark seems a decent enough excuse to get one but i really dont like the idea of the backwards compatability issue!

[RoadKill]

You have an Xbox. Why the fuck are you worried if games you can currently play will work on your new system.

[Kav]

because i want to play games online, preferrably free (silver service) which is only available on the 360...

 

compare it to the other consoles and its little things like that putting me off

[RoadKill]

You can't play games online with the free service, except at certain times when offers are on.

 

Just pay the money and play on. It's not that much if you pay annually.

Why are you basing on deciding to buy a console because of backwards compatibility? BC is a bonus not something that you should use to decide. Its the games that should do that.

Alot of people got a PS2 and will buy a PS3 because of backwards compatibility.

[Kav]

yeah i know, just in the mood for being a tw@t!

 

i'm just nit-picking! plus after a very expensive mishap on holiday cant think about speding more money too soon (i'm in full-swing "scrooge-mode")! ha ha

 

i'll probs get it, i just cant help moaning for some reason!

I promise you they are not in the majority.

 

The majority don't think about buying a shiny new system to play the previous generations games.

Exactly, you don't spend £200-£400 on a new console to play old games do you

[CooInTheZoo]

Oohhh doesnt it look lonely without me

[Babooo]

I'm really thinking about getting a Xbox 360 now. They just look soooo nice...

 

Online looks a blast, considering I've never tried online gaming. Project Gotham Racing looks the bomb.

 

Other than that though, I think I'll probably wait for PS3 or revoluition. I'm really undecided about the 360 though.....peeps its up to you to persuade me otherwise!!!

Online gaming is the reason I got my Xbox, and the reason I'm getting the Xbox 360. The service is well worth the £30 you pay for it.

 

Kav, the free service doesn't actually let you play all the time. You can just see who's online and send messages. I think they said you'll get the occaisional weekend that you can play. Just pay the £30-£40 for Gold

[Sarka]

Exactly, you don't spend £200-£400 on a new console to play old games do you

 

That's what I'm doing with the Rev! One of the main reasons I'm buying it is the 5 Generations of games.

 

But I have been thinking about getting the 360 but I don't think I can fork out so much money for it, especially when the only game I really want in the launch period is Kameo.

We plan to get 4 games with our Xbox 360 (One game for me, and one for each of my bros). Problem is, we can't really decide what to get. Can anyone perhaps show me a list of games that are coming out before Christmas?

You must remember, this is Gamefaqs. A load of ass ramming Sepiroth fans.

[Domstercool]

Sephiroth is the daddy ^_^

Link still beat Sepiroth in the character battle final though. Ha!

[Domstercool]

Yeah and that's cool because Link rocks

 

Guess Gamefaqs is full "of ass ramming Link fans!"

[dukkadukka]

Sephiroth is the daddy ^_^

this guy knows what he's talking about!

she knows it too

[Guest Jordan]

Urgh... Sephiroth is freaking lame. As is that strange cosplay guy trying to be him.

That's FF for you.

I cant wait for Xbox 360. I hope Oblivion is a launch title.
