So, I'm thinking of getting an xbox 360...(console n00b help)
Right, I'm doing alright financially at the moment, somehow, so I might invest in a bit of home entertainment to warm up Le Shateau with pleasing pixellated love.
Basically, I'm attracted to the 360, cause I like online gaming, and I also like the dead stupid shoot things mindlessly type of game they seem to specialise in. Plus Fifa online and Fallout look like a lot of fun. I like dipping into games for an hour or two at max, so don't judge me all ye who are going to hit back with PS3 and Wii suggestions. I'm looking for entertainment rather than depth, and as my favourite games of the past few years have pretty much all been pretty looking FPS type things, the 360 seems the right choice.
But, if I get one, I want it to be able to do most things- music/dvd player for the living room, proper online internet gaming and all that. I don't give a flying fuck about HD or Blu Ray, tbh. So how much would making it into the full monty cost, as I've been warned that the extras set you back a bit.
I am also a little confused by the hard drive bundles. What is the hard drive for? Just saving games? Or are there other purposes? I don't quite understand why an 'arcade' 360 would set me back £50 less than another type of 360?
Yeah, so halp. And suggest likely prices and any bundles you're aware of which may interest me.
