I have £150 - £160 and I'm thinking about buying an Xbox.

I want co-op games and LIVE games. Convince me!

That is what I thought until I parted with a couple of monkeys on a standalone DVD player, the Xbox DVDi sn't all that and it is far too loud to truly enjoy a none action packed film.

It's down to the host and who is connecting to it you stupid badger p*ick.

Of what? That you are a stupid moron?

Yeah cracking examples, 2 of them aren't even exclusives.

Do you have to persist in acting like a complete kn*b scarf?

it has a decent dvd player. The greatest fps ever, halo. The best graphics. Most racing games. Project gotham racing 2, toca 2, rallisport challenge 2 for example. The sound is great. Xbox live doesn't lag, like ps2 networking. Convinced? It also has the best up and coming exclusives. Half life 2, doom 3, halo 2 and conker live and uncut for example.

It's a great console if you prefer your games to be a little more serious, and don't want to invest in a high-end PC.

RS3 XBOX is like an Arcade version of the PC game, apparently

You can have up to 16 players racing. Loads of tracks, loads of cars, fantastic weather and damage effects. Brilliant Single player and Live modes and it's not too difficult to get into.

Easily the best racing game on any console.

I have RS3 for PC and I'm class at it. :P

Does Rallisport 2 have a co-op or is it retarded like most other racing games that only offer 1 vs 1 races? Can you do 2 player tournaments and stuff? 2 player on LIVE etc?

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
