I'm probably going to be getting a 360 and i just wanted to know if there was anything I needed to know before i bought it, and also some ideas of what games to buy. I was thinking about getting Overlord for it rate it please if you have played it.

keep your 360 in a open space where fresh air flows well, may sound a bit weird, but believe me, your 360 will last along time, and Overlord is good fun, go for it, and if you are getting online, Lost Planet is pretty fun, Gears of War is also an amazing game, and you cant miss Oblivion

Yea lol i got mine yesterday.Heres a few things the sellers want tell you. 1.If u buy the $300 one u will need a hardrive to play a few original xbox games,to play 360 games and be able to save, create profile,use xbox live. now if u dont want to play original xbox games i recommend the $300 one then buy memory card and a game u save money for more games/controllers/xbox live stuff etc.Any questions?And i saw Overlord first hand and it looks boring.Im buying Saints Row today and trying to get my live working theni can create my own gang :)

deffenately get it and in a month when blue dragon comes out egt that especially if you like rpgs if you don't then go for R6:V, gears, graw 1 + 2, and if you don't like shooters, theres tons of sports games, and even if you don't like them theres a couple action games such as kameo, and still if you don't like any of this stuff guitar hero and rock band are coming out.

^wow run on sentance

Definately get one but get the Premium or Elite if you have a nice TV with HDMI...if you buy the core you will most likely end up paying more in the end for things such as HDD, Headset and it comes with a wired controller instead of wired

If theres one console you should get this generation its an X360.. It has amazing games all the way up to 2009 w/games being announced all the time that will push the life of the console greatly. 360 is the console to get this generation, thats why I bought one.

I recommend buying an Xbox with the hard drive as it does come in handy, but i wouldn't waste the money on an elite (even though it looks so much better), like the one guy said earlier keep it in an open area, or if you have the money buy a fan. Games to look for I would recommend: GeoW, Oblivion, Kameo, PGR3, DOA4, and if you like tactical shooters you probably couldn't go wrong with GRAW... and if you can find a cheap copy of Crackdown I would recommend that too.

oh yeah i really like mine! u probably want the premium (hardrive for demos, videos etc, headset, wireless controllers etc) and definately get 1 year online (u get one month free)

games u should check out include:GEARS OF WAR,Forza 2, Rainbow Six Vegas, Guitar Hero etc. cheaper games: COD 2, Kameo, Dead Rising, Condenmed etc

Theres literally a ton of games coming later this year: e.g. mass effect, gta, assasins creed, halo 3, pgr 4, burnout, bioshock, army of two, brothers in arms, half life 2: orange box, splinter cell conviction, eternal sonata blah blah so u won't regret it!!
