Im very bored and very tempted to go and buy one today!

1) Does it have built in wireless? if not how do i get it online?

2) Anywhere doing any cheap offers, cheapest core 360 ive found was £199.

Cheers

 

Nah it doesnt have built in wireless internet although I think you can buy an adapter so it will

I just use CAT5 from my router as it is faster and more reliable than wireless for online gaming anyway!

It only has wireless pad stuff built in

 

You can buy the plug-in wireless card which slots into the back via USB I have used it on my X-BOX and had no problems at all with connectivity etc.

 

Sweet, really want one now

Someone find me a cheap one i can physicly be sat gaming on tonight!

 

The Premium Pack is your best bet. £290 from my local GameStation with either Hitman Blood Money or Tomb Raider. You get a wireless pad, built in wireless connection, one month's membership to Xbox Live Gold, Headset for online play, Hard Drive, HDTV compatibility etc.

Core pack gets you a pad with a wire (trust me, after using a wireless pad you'll never want to go back) no hard drive, no headset, no built in wireless adapter..... Not worth it IMO. Pay £200 to buy it, then buy a game, and a memory card. You won't be far off £290 mate.

 

Core pack deffo

I spend 5-10 hours a week on xbox live

 

Premium pack is the only choice imo.

Will cost you alot more to buy the headset, Hard drive etc etc later on.

PGR3 rocks

 

i bought the core version first, then sold it to buy a premium pack as what you get is much better value for money. The memory cards are a piss poor size for saving games and pictures etc. Plus you can play your own music while you play any game, online or not if you have the hard drive.

 

you need a wireless network adaptor to use it wireless. i paid £70 for mine, but i think there down to £60 now. you will need a wireless broadband router aswell.

 

while a few people are on here online with 360's, can we have some gamer tags? I only end up playing french people in the day! and its getting to be a pain to do the online career on pgr as not many people seem to be on it!

Im MATT 999 MATT (for now...)

 

Just to add, something i thought that was pretty cool was that if your watching a dvd on the 360 and if your connected up to live you can talk to anyone online through private chat while watching it. Great for talking to mates for free, or like in my case, friends from overseas with no cost incured.

 

Is it like the old xbox where you have to buy an extra add on just to play DVD's? i hated that

 

Don't buy the microsoft wireless adapter, get somthing like the linksys WGA54G, it'll do the same thing and can be used on other things, unlike the Xbox one that only works on a Xbox

 

cor just msn on a pc.. what a marval

 

most importantly, when is Halo 3 being released for it?
When its released i'm off to buy one!

 

Can you retro play the games, ie Xbox games work on an Xbox 360?

And is there anyway of getting games onto the HDD?

 

So i just slot the hard drive on then its all pre installed job done? play xbox games then?

And do you need a remote or any extra silly add ons to play DVD's?

 

Buy one mate, i'd suggest the Premium pack as it's better value for money. Xbox Live is superb fun and i'm on mine all the time.

Have yo got an HDTV?

 

P.s the backward compatability is constantly getting updated

 

No HDTV here stoo.

Thats another thing the worries me, all the display models are linked upto HDTV, so is it gonna be shite on a regular widescreen 32"?

 

Well, not shite but alot better running HD

 

im running mine on a 28" widescreen aswell, still pretty good, and fight night is good

 

Bought a premium pack lastnight, not been on here because ive been on it ever since

PGR3 and COD2 is fecking ace, especially on xbox live

 

fook off back there then

 

You can have an early night aswell if you like
