Which console?

[Adsta]

I havnt read the whole thread because i thought it would most likely be a battle of the consoles, But heres my contribution
If you want to play games get a xbox 360
If you want to have stupid fun moving around etc get a wii
If you want to have a blu-ray player with the odd good game get a ps3

All in all if you get a PC you could do most of the above.

Also before everyone goes zomg you cant say that about X Y Z I personally own all 4 systems its what i use them for. I dont see the point in only owning one console when you can own them all Thats just me though

haha. Yeah I own PC, Wii and 360. Was going to get PS3 instead of 360, but my brother has that and I can borrow it when I want. At the moment the only game unique to that system that I want to play is Metal Gear Solid. The 360 is cheaper, and generally third party games run better on it.

Some friends came around the other day and I showed them Crysis Warhead on the PC. Was showing them the graphics and stuff and they were yeah good, can we play some Wii Tennis now? lol. Showing Crysis lasted less then 5 minutes. I can see now why Wii is soo popular. I am happy to have one.

Changed my mind and going for the 360 60gb

The best offer (i think) I can find at the moment is:

360 60gb + FIFA09 + Extra wireless controller = £179.99


What do you think of this deal? Any better deals?

edit: Theres also 360 60gb + Saints Row 2 = £179.99

 

[5ingh]

anyone ^?

 

[ScarySquirrel]

Looks good to me mate. Then again I paid over £300 when I got my first 360 so it would look good

 

[jackthezipper]

Wheres that deal?

 

[Chong Warrior]

That's currently the best deal out there.

 

[Chong Warrior]

Wheres that deal?

You can't ask for links on here mate.

But it's at one of the biggest high street stores so not hard to find

exactly. these prices are just insane

That's currently the best deal out there.

[Chong Warrior]

which one buddy? the fifa & extra controller deal?

Either of them, Saints Row or FIFA. Those offers are only available online though, they don't do the free pad instore.

 

[jackthezipper]

I know you can;t ask for links but you can give clues

 

[5ingh]

Either of them, Saints Row or FIFA. Those offers are only available online though, they don't do the free pad instore.

ok mate. decisions decisions...

 

[Chong Warrior]

There's another offer but it's not available until the 30th October.

360 Elite + Fable II + FIFA 09 (or Fallout 3) = £249.99 inc P&P

 

[5ingh]

that's another good'un if you're willing to spend that much

i take it the only extra thing I need with the 360 is the play and charge kit yeah?

 

[Chong Warrior]

HDMI cable. Don't spend anymore than £5 on one though, there's no improvement in picture quality

 

[5ingh]

i could never justify spending a ****load on a piece of cable

 

[Amnesia]

[5ingh]

I got a £169.99 60GB edition in the high street last week. You get 2 games of your choice with it, and they let me trade those in towards the cost (Older Microsoft published games not worth too much to retailer). That knocked £20 off so I got it for £149.97. Good price for a 60GB edition if you already have games/accessories etc (in my case I traded in a 20GB edition so had games/controllers already I owned).
