xbox 360 consoles

FinnGB · 30-10-2010, 09:57 PM

hey all,

I plan to get an xbox 360 in nov/dec. Ive had one before but since then many models of xbox haver come out.

choices are;

xbox360 4g £150
xbox360 elite (120g) £140
or xbox360 250g(new slim one) £200

I understand the HDD is important so i would probably rule out the 4g console. But i cant choose between the other two.

Any recommendations please? pros and cons ect

thanks

Well to be honest I can't even switch it on lol
but my son has the elite one, he was always a playstation fan but it's never on now he just loves his xbox

Whoops, I got the 4gb one for my son for Xmas, but I got that one for him as I don't want him to be playing online

my son had them when they first came out and he was always having them pack in, it was the lights of death or something they called it, when they came on it was knackered. He had 1 new one and it was repaired twice. he now has the sony type

My 7 yr old is obsessed with the wii and playstation and I'm betting he will be as bad with his xbox. I have started a rule now no computer games after dinner

Elite would be great to own. Perhaps you should concider buying Xbox kinect it will come out before Xmas you can pre-order one now. I do not see the point in slim version, more likely to have heating problems i guess.
