"please help! i wanna buy an xbox"

well i own a PS2 and a gamecube and they are both decent machines but they both seem to be lacking in my favourite games department first person shooters, and having played Halo round my friends house, i'm convinced i want an Xbox.

so here goes, i was wondering where is the cheapest place to buy a:
xbox
Halo
and 2 controllers

(and please dont say special reserve, i know their cheap but i want to see if theres more cheaper) also if its a website say whether its reliable or not!

cheers.

I heard that it's out on PC two, and also that they decided to make it a PS2 exclusive because they thought it would sell on X-Box?

Deux Ex 2 is an XBOX exclusive (according to OXM).

I don't know.. I much prefer Deus Ex to Halo, I just think it's got a lot more imagination in it. Also, Metroid Prime, Die Hard Vendetta and others look set to be possible Halo beaters. My money's on Metroid Prime.

Broadband only.

it looks well good dont it! and the main character is called sam so it doesnt get much better than that (thats my name).

oh yeah another question....

is the online stuff only broadband or are they gonna do a lower speed connection aswell?

Splinter Cell is down for a late November/early December release.
That one is at the top of my shopping list.

It must have been just a couple of weeks ago. There are 2 GAME shops in Basildon town centre and one of them at least was showing a sticker on the Halo box which stated that loyalty card holders could get the game for £30 brand new.

I remember it because Res wants to get his X-Box soon and I knew that would interest him. Theres a few other cousins of mine that want an X-Box now too. ;-))

Game had a sale for bonus card holders but that has gone. Toys 'R' Us are doing some good deals but non include halo.

Cool, i get paid on thursday.

Halo will be mine :)
