Well, its been about 3 weeks since i've had the new Xbox, Ive got Project Gothem Racing 3, Ghost Recon and Blazing Angels, and all I can say is wow. The thing thats really got me is I somehow ended up with 1 months free trial on Xbox Live, which has totally changed my gaming, I think I wouldnt have used it 20% of the time I have with out online play. Its most certainly the best feature of the xbox (even though it was with the first one but I never used it).
All I need now is a 50" plasma so I can run the thing at full res. So who else out there has one, and who plays online?

I have one. Bought 3 wireless controllers, 5 games - need for speed most wanted, ghost recon, call of duty, madden 2006 and project dark zero. I have had the original xbox +over 60 original games so im abit of a nut. The graphics are bloody awesome. By far the best feature is wireless controllers. We dont have cable or dsl around here yet but am counting down the days till it comes.. Hi_res gaming is wicked, a few weeks before i got the 360 I bought a 42 inch plasma. ИИИИИИ it rocks!

I have a mate who got one not long ago... and the amount of money they cost! JESUS!
I'm over gaming systems, I barely use my computer for games and haven't touched my PS2 for well over a year now. |

i went to visit my mate who just started up a gaming lounge in penrith
20 HD lcd tv's with 20 xbox 360's all connected together had a go at ghost recon, call of duty 2, and project gotham racing 3, and i was impressed by the graphics. best part was easily the multiplayer, each person with their own 26" lcd and when youve got over 10 people on the same level, makes for super intense killing

Dam.. I want oblivion. Computers too slow for it, and I can't afford a 360 till the price drops, lol.
It'll be sweet to get one though, then chuck it in the back of the van and head off for the weekend with mates. |

Got my 360 on release date!! Got Fight Night Round 3, Burnout Revenge, Tiger 06 & Call of Duty 2. Very impressed so far but cant wait for future games. Remember when xbox first came out and we thought the release games rocked?!?! Then 1 year later they were sh*t.. Apply that theory to Xbox 360 and the next 12months looks very exciting!!!

i got mine 2 weeks ago ... i got Call Of Duty 2 and PGR3.
CoD2 is mad for online And i can't get over the graphics of PGR3 .. simply awsome. Looking at getting Condemned: Criminal Origins, borrowed it off a mate for a week. Hella good scary game. My gamer tag is: xeS evoL I anyone add me .. as i will be playing it a lot at night when i get home from work yeah everyone gets a one month gold membership from first signing up to xbox live... even if u dont have gold .. u still get XboxLive silver .. so u can download demo's and games n stuff... pretty good. |

I use the game pad. I find the wheel too clumsy. Cheers, Mike
