but you cant use LIVE which is probably the best thing about the 360.

Remember older XB360's do develope faults! Ive not heard new ones have as many problems, but atleast if you buy new you get 12mts warranty.

The £129.99 XB360 console is the Arcade which only comes with 512MB memory card. Its cheap because its a basic system. The one you want is the 60GB console as it apparently has the HD DVD Drive built in, big enough memory card, etc.

Im getting my son a 20GB console with 6mts warranty for £103. If it goes wrong then I take it back and get another console

Wrong, you get 3 years warranty for the rings of death, nothing else AFAIK. It costs £75 to repair most things (Standard charge I think).

Microsoft (XBOX) get so many returned faulty they repair them and send them back to the customer to replace their faulty one. Its easier they repairing the one sent to save time. I know people who had sent their console to Microsoft for repair and the new console they replaced it with went wrong within 2 weeks and needed replacing!
