Ok well as the title says i want to buy a 360 soon but as you can see i have some questions:

#1 Do you think i should wait till after E3 to buy one just incase something better might come out. Im going to buy an elite (don't try to talk me out of it) or whatever the newest addtion to the xbox line will be (if there will be something else).

#2 MY 3 game choices will be: GTA4, Halo 3, COD4. I don't want to get all of these games at once as im getting my dad to get me a points card and probably a gold membership, and a wireless adapter ( ic an't believe they don't have wifi on a next gen console built-in, goddam money milkers). So im probably going to (try) to get GTA4 but what should the other one be? Also which is really good that future shop has a deal which i get gears and dark sector free but thats only if i don't wait till after E3.

#3 So to stream media from my Windows Vista PC (i hate vista) to my 360 all i need is it to be wired or wirelessly hooked up to my router? No usb cables or something like that just the network setup? Also does it only have to be hooked to the router or straight to the computer?

I think thats it. Just incase you need to know im 16, i live in canada. I think i might want to wait till after E3 but im still not sure as i don't have much paitence.

#1 elite awsome no regrets

#2 for games, i would recommend Halo 3 and Gta4. Cod4 is tight for a while but it got really boring for me after a few months...i dont know but a lot of people like it

#3 i never tried the router way but it might not work because the proper way defined by microsoft was through USB...

wait for E3 for games you might want to buy later.... get halo 3 and GTA4 and gears 2 when it comes. Wirless adapter great but some difficulties setting it up and connecting for first time after that no problems.

PS you need router password to connect wirlessly

PSS don't make fun of my spelling,.
