Bought a Xbox 360

I was wandering past the gos this morning - and saw this offer.... Buy Xbox 360 Console System. at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Xbox 360 consoles.

For my £179.95 I got:

the premium pack (20GB disk etc) plus...
Kameo
Fuzion Frenzy 2
Viva Piñata
Project Gotham Racing 3
Xbox 360 Live Arcade Unplugged

Good deal???? Have to say I think it's the cheapest I have ever seen a premium pack, and the extra games for the kids to start it off just sealed the deal tbh... Any of the above games any good.. I don't know yet as the kids have been attached to Viva Piñata for the last two hours now so I have not even had a go...

I don't have it online yet (damn you M$ and your lack of wifi)... Thinking of getting some sort of wireless bridge, I expect it should be cheaper then the official wifi adapter, anyone got any recommendations on this last issue. Will this sort of thing do it???

Well, I still havent seen any reason to get a next gen console yet.

A media PC does the media playing/handling/streaming better, and with added functions (like TV recording) , it also handles online gaming better for the most part (although I dont bother these days), and appears , given reports, to be far more reliabl, and MUCH easier to fix.

I have yet to see a game that makes me want to buy a console, although GTA4 is probably closest, everything else pointed as 'must play' has eventually appeared on PC , I suspect that one will be no different.

Im going out on a limb here, but Ill take a fair wager that the Xbox 360 has far more restrictions on its programmes than my media PC does.

I'll also throw this one out for Osskzzi.

Ill bet any of your 360's have crashed more in the last 12 months than my Vista Ultimate powered media PC.

Which is zero.

And I didnt claim that old = bad. Hell last week me and a buddy finished final fantasy 6 again which is a snes title ;/. However the age of those titles does explain the cheap price tag. And to be fair those titles are quite wank.

ditto - so far

I have to give one up to Vob tho - I bet his PC is a lot less noisy... Damn why is the DVD unit so loud, when playing games from the HDD the unit is wisper quite, but spin up that bad boy DVD and the house starts a rocking
