Ok, just sold my Xbox and am thinking of getting a 360 at the beginning of next month.

Have any hardware bugs been fixed by now? Do you think it would be worth getting one now or waiting? My Xbox Live account is ticking down too, so without an Xbox it's being wasted.

GAME have a good pack available; the full pack + Fight Night and PGR3 for £319.99

No...Im actually a regular now... an improvement Ild say. Wow I remmember the hours I spent with PB, Sheepy and all the regulars 5 years ago when this site was Special Reserve... great times... a lot of hope back then for the future of video games... 5 years on the new machines like the 360 have the potential to really shine and do new things like digitize your face and place it on a video game character in real time...

Ild say its worth getting a 360 now with such a great site like this giving away games each day, hopefully it will live up to its potential but for the first year the 360 looks promising. Hopefully Microsoft is holding back the best till the PS3 hits.

My brother has a 360 and I really need one too.

Nice to have you back.

Well, I got a 360 in the end (and produced a topic as a beginners guide for it) and can recommend it to everyone.

My next purchase will be a Wii, if I can save up enough before it comes out, that is...

Shouldn't be too hard to get £150-£200 by November, should it?

Hell, I hate the concept of the Wii. But I'm getting one.

I'm going to damage my wrist even more so swinging around a remote control as if it were a sword or tennis racket :(

I'll ready my lawsuit.

The funny thing is, you know millions will get lawsuits against Nintendo for such an eventuality.

Only if I sell all my current games.

There's bills to pay and mouths to feed, you know!

I'm gonna ask my brother if he's going to get one, at that price he might be tempted but only if it has some good games. he earns over £800 a month but that seems to disappear within a few days. God knows what he buys. I'd get it myself but I wouldnt have the time to play it.
