Return to Xbox 360?

Drake5 · 12 Sep 2010 at 14:39

Hi guys,

The last major release I played on the 360 was Red Dead Redemption. Shortly after completing it my 360 RROD and it was out of warranty and didn't have the cash at the time to buy a new one.

Soon I will have the cash though and I was just wondering if it's going to be worth it. I will certainly be purchasing Fifa 11, but is there any other big releases I can expect?

Thanks

Depends entirely what you look for from a games console.

Well obviously games. I don't bother with any of the 'entertainment' stuff like movies and music etc.

I think I saw the new 360 online for about £150 which seemed pretty good.

Whatever you do, don't get the new 4GB version though.

Indeed, I haven't heard many positive things about that unit yet.

If you want a console back and youve got all those games and stuff - seems obvious to get it again - especially if you have the time/money to spend on it...

Seems stupid not to if youve got all that just lying around - Im sure those alone will make it worth buying

i'm half tempted to say if you want, you can buy my xbox360 elite, its around a year old, but I have the receipt for the RROD repair if the console should ever develop a fault..

I've played forza 3 and thats all on it.... I got it, realised that the PC gets nearly all 360 games, well ones i'm interested in, and the rest i can play on a PS3....

I nearly sold my PS3 in favour of the 360, but didn't and glad I didn't now... so, email me in trust if you think you'd like a fully boxed, with receipt 360 with a single gamepad no games for £100 ONO etc....

Maybe??

The worst one was the dude who couldn't play on Halo Reach with his friends online because it requires a HDD. That put me right off - I was supposed to get the 4GB the other day, but I'm waiting a little longer so I can afford the 250GB now.

I'm really looking forward to F1 2010 and Fifa 11, haven't got room for my desktop PC in my new flat so stuck with rather slow laptop which ain't gonna run either very well so Xbox and the telly a good alternative.

Just got email from Play, my new slim and Reach is on the way... woohoo!
