Waitin for a 360... What games shall i get?

[moo_2002]

Am not waiting for my final green to come in, and for the lengthy verification, apparently upto 28 days?!
during this time i will prepare myself by getting a remote for it (they dont still come with one do they?) and a few games, controllers, and a wireless network adapter perhaps.

Ive already got kameo (sealed new) for £20 on ebay

any other recommendations guys?

thinking: PD0
PGR3
Condemned (maybe rental, or buy and sell quickly)
GRAW
and obviously a few live arcade games when it comes; geo wars, wik, uno, billiards?

What dyou think games/accessories?

[Bazza]

you should try getting table tennis cheap off somewhere, i havnt played it but i am addicted to the sport.

[iholmes297]

PGR3 is meant to be good, and table tennis looks like fun, good graphics too.

[mozfadz]

Hitman: Blood Money
and Need for Speed: Underground 2
Still wicked!
Halo 2's good too

Is PGR3 out yet? lol

[Kello]

PGR£ was a launch title, PDZ gd, GRAW is amazing, hitman blood money is good if you like long mission stealth type games, table tennis is meant to be good aslo.

[moo_2002]

ah kello, see you got ur 360 from giveaway - out of interest how long did it take to get to your door having got all 10 referrals? just wana know how long i' be waiting - have been told by support its no more than 28days, but what ive read here begs to differ.

Games:
am keen on PDZ, simply as its a Rare title. Have kaemo in the bag, loved conker, may get grabbed by ghoulies as is now backward compat. I know its q cack, but rare does good cack.
not keen on NeedFor Speed, not a big fan of EAs useless £updating altho fight night looks amazing- unfort not into boxing games. may as well go down the sheffield student union at 2am, get some real fisties.
table tennis is also a def, as is pgr3 and GRAW then
seems easier to spend money on games when the system is free

what xbox live games you recommend then?

[rockykabir]

Table Tennis is class....get it for £25 from Tescos!

[Kello]

Well i finished about end of Dec time i think and i got begin of Feb, so about a month of so, i did not mind waiting because i never really wannted to buy a 360, so i was in no rush

[moo_2002]

bet yo're glad you got one now though?! PS3 looks so bad, im happy to get mny console now.

[iholmes297]

How can you say the PS3 looks so bad?? It looks good, if a bit overpriced. There are going to be great games for both though, I still don't know which way to go, the Wii is a certainty though.

[drkul]

tell you one thing, the xbox360 is hella loud, well annoying as the disc spins all the time when playing pgr3, still the game is wicked but wish i could quieten the system

[Kello]

I ainit mega fused on PS3, i will get one no doubt but the E3 conf did not blow me away at all, Wii + Xbox 360 = PS3, why they got to copy ideas of those companys, also i willd need a telly upgrade for that, we should be getting one when we move so that good enough for me

[iholmes297]

I am trying to get an xbox now, simply because I don't want to wait until November, and it could be a let down. I'm tempted to wait and see what happens with the PS3 now and not buy until a while after they are released, if I buy at all.

[deedie]

no ........ the remote doesnt come with it anymore.
it was only the launch batch of consoles that had the remote free.

you could also get all the games for free........ as the hitachi drives have now been hacked as of yesterday.

[zara]

What do you mean? you can play copied 360 games?

[iholmes297]

Sounds right, all you need to do to play a copied game is make the drive think its a real one.

Edit: Here is a video they made, and an explanation, it also says that it can't be done easily yet.

whoop whoop

i have a nice source for 360 games and i just bought a dual layer burner

[iholmes297]

I think it will be a while before it can be done easily, but its not difficult to get the games.

[drkul]

that video is well old!!!!!!

[GafferTape]

I'm sure I read somewhere that the video is a fake. Apparently all they did is put a white sticker on a real game disc and that's it.
