I've been flirting with the idea for a while but today I finally broke down and bought a 360. I was at the Gamestop store we have at our PX on post here today and it kind of happened. I won't be active duty military soon and I'll lose my PX and military star credit card privileges [good interest rate for a credit card] so I figured why not do it now. I picked up the 360 pro and got a good deal on a used extra controller and a charger and some batteries. I picked up Left 4 Dead and Fable 2 to get me started. I must say my entertainment center looks nice with both a 360 and PS3 sitting on it. I was wondering what some other good 360 exclusives are that I should pick up in the future. And also where I can get a wireless internet adapter for cheap. My setup is not conducive to using an ethernet cable. Thanks guys. :up:

Get Gears of War 1 & 2, your xbox library is incomplete without both games

you still haven't played Bioshock right? its cheaper on the xbox, and the extras for the ps3 arent anything special.
Mass Effect, Gears, and Banjo Kazooie are all lots of fun.
and in the arcade, check out braid, castle crashers, and geometry wars.muscle979 likes this. -

I'll have to acquire a wireless adapter before I can get into any of the online stuff. Left 4 Dead has been a lot of fun so far today. I've played at least a couple of hours with the wife. She doesn't play games very often so that's quite an accomplishment. The game is nothing fancy but quite enjoyable.

I bought an xbox wireless adapter off of ebay for like $36. The 360 wireless is pretty expensive, if you can find it used at gamestop they sometimes have 20% off coupons which would make it a decent price.

Do you have a laptop?

You could use it as a wireless adapter until you could snag one. Just connect the 360 and the laptop with an ethernet cable and follow instructions below. Worked for me.

Hey, way to add something to the discussion, fanboy! :rolleyes:
On topic: If you like driving games, you have the right system now. Forza Motorsports, Test Drive: Unlimited & Burnout Paradise are all worth the 6,000 pennies.muscle979 and Phin-o-rama like this. -
He is only looking for 360 exclusives. He probably has Burnout on the PS3.

Then he can get Forza and TDU. :wink2:

We might actually find out if that's true when it's has some more games.

That statement I would almost agree with if it was 2007:wink2:

I know...so was I. Dammit, I left out the :tongue2: smilie at the end. :lol:
That could possibly be true if there actually WAS a Camaro right now. :chuckle:

I'm not going to lie, I like camaros, but I hate that hood. I saw one driving down the street as I left work today and I couldn't help but shake my head.

Oh on XBox live Carcassone is a fun little strategy game, probably cheap to download as well.

I forgot about PGR4!
PGR4 and XBox Live.....ah....nothing is as fullfilling as beating a room full of Frenchmen at a race! :lol:TheMageGandalf, Phinz420 and muscle979 like this. -
so i'm going to go to best buy today and get a new game. i want to combine fun with 'on sale' so we'll see what i end up with. i think gtaIV is down to 39.99... which may make me buy that. fable2 is still like 59 so i dont want that. already beat fallout 3. I could do gears 2 but i think thats still full price.

I had previously rented GTA4 through Gamefly and that really hurt me from being willing to purchase it @ new prices.
Less than a week ago I went to Blockbuster to check out their games and saw they had used copies of GTA4 being sold for 14.99. Usually I'm not a big fan of used games, but it is actually in surprisingly good condition.
GTA4 for $15 is definitely a good mix of fun & "on sale" IMO :yes:
I did some checking around as well, and the lowest used prices you can find on it is $19.99 from Amazon. The local flee market here was selling it for $25, and Gamestop was going for over 30 still.pennphinfan likes this. -
