I'm after a 360

Kreeeee · 1 May 2006 at 00:31

I like my multiplayer games and I have a hankering for the 360. Are there any places you recommend to get any of the items listed below? £40 per game seems extortionate!

XB360 premium
2* play & charge kits
1* wireless controller
PGR3
Perfect Dark
Halo2 (for 8 player linkup, will this work with a 360 and XB classic?)
VGA cable (Will the 360 be fine on my PC monitor and how does the sound connect?)

Any other recommendations and tips welcome.

How big is ya pc monitor? U will get Hi-Def picture quality thru but unless its widescreen u get borders i believe. Also for the sound the left and right audio plug things are seperate so u get a convetor to plug into the line in on ya sound card.

A KVM switch from ocuk means u can flick between PC and ya 360 if u are using ya monitor.

My monitor is 18 inches 1280*1024 and borders wouldn't bother me. I use the DVI input for my monitor currently so if I use the VGA cable then I would just change it by pressing abutton on the monitor.

Here's what I priced up so far from a friendlier auction site:

# Xbox 360 play & charge kit
£12.99

# Xbox 360 VGA AV Cable
£17.99

# Halo 2
£8.49

# Xbox 360 Console (Includes: Xbox 360, 20GB hard drive, wireless controller, ethernet cable, HD AV cable and headset)
£270.00

# Perfect Dark Zero
£19.98

# Project Gotham Racing 3
£29.99

Total: £359.44

The games are second hand, the rest is new.

Are you allowed to say where?

OK, think I'll sleep on it and maybe order tomorrow. What other multiplayer games do you recommend?
