I bought my second 360 from Future shop. It was the regular package that comes with the head set. It came with 2 free games in the box and I also got 2 extra games thrown in because it was some kind of deal going on that day. They games that got thrown in where halo 3 and Strangle hold.

Get an Elite, but wait like...a month. There's a possibility that they might be phasing the Pro out and making the Elite $300.

The reason I asked for your TV is because the Elite comes with an HDMI cable.

Here it is listed now, though: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a … 6868105017
As long as the xbox has an HDMI output on the back of all the models you can get an HDMI cable for like $5 on amazon, so I wouldn't let a cable alone influence you. (I know it has other goodies that are a benefit too)

As far as quality is concered, they are just basic OEM cables that are no less quality then one you would get packaged with random stuff, plus its a digital signal so it gets there or doesn't.... As long as you don't need like a 50 foot cable there should be no bandwidth concerns.

I recommend the Elite also. The harddrive space is quite handy for installing the games on to it. Speeds up the loading times quite nifty.

You end up paying similar to the PS3 once you take into account things like Live Gold and the Wireless adaptor and shit. Maybe it's still cheaper, but not that much. And in the long run the Xbox Live will always make the X360 more expensive than the PS3 if you want to consider the targeted life span of these consoles

I thought it through pretty clear when I was deciding on getting a console or just getting a new PC, figured the PS3 was a better "investment"









Oh ok fine, it was all because of Gran Turismo tbh.

you need the official cable if you want to have digital 5.1 surround sound iirc

but i use a $5 cable since i just use the tv speakers (no sound system yet)

When's the next generation of consoles coming out? The 360 is getting on a bit. I dunno, it just seems like you're buying into it a bit late.

Because people will/do buy it.  The SF4 online community is pretty gnarly.  First it was Zangief that everyone used, now its Rufus...it's weird, whatever character the top player uses, everyone follows.

You get an HDMI cable for the 60gb pro as well. Go for Pro forman, the arcade has way too little space. Oh and 360>PooShit3.

Prob a community thing, i seen videos of Rufus and he seems like a Eddy character from Tekken.  Button mashing and lots of hits.  Check this guy out.



Great match

Eddy was the man.  Actually his afro-wearing disco counterpart was.  It's not button mashing if you know what you are doing!  For Eddy it was all about starting with the spinning roundhouse then going into the breakdance/capoiera moves.

My combo for Tekken 3 was Eddy/Law.  I could easily beat the game on 1 credit.
