Slim/Normal/original
4gb/250gb
2nd hand/new
any other recommendations?

if your wondering what i'm on about...i'm looking at getting a xbox 360

250gb slim do it!
second hand if you can, if not just go for the new one

4gb slim isnt enough by a long long shot!

dont bother with the older one's they break too much

go 2nd hand mate look for Elites if you can

hmm think I just saw you bid for PS3 games.... I retract my statement :P

lol JJ, yeah i have a PS3, but I really wanna play Forza 4

I was looking at the 250GB slim and can get it with 2 controllers, crysis 2 and Forza 3 for 227 euros

I just dont think I can justify that much so I can play Forza

I want to use HDMI so i'm gonna have to find out which x360 has hdmi
and then look for 2nd hand maybe

€150 (£131) for an Xbox Elite + 2 controllers
is that about the right price?

Sounds good, there about £200 new here

im not talking about the new slim, im talking about an old elite...
2nd hand
i think its a bit much tbh

Yh... the new slim on play.com are about £140 second hand, prob less on fleabay. I'm sure whn i looked a few months back i could get one with games for 170

im thinking if i just want it for forza and maybe other only xbox releases in the future, do i really need something bigger than the 4gb one?

New you couldn't resist it

seeing those cars and the mods etc in the Forza thread, I need Forza in my life

yeah you do, as far as the guy told me in the shop xbox live takes up the majority of that.
It's nowhere near enough and you can't expand it either.... may as well not have a hard drive in it.

The elite here 2nd hand were £130 ish from game with 1 controller. The 250gb slim with gears of war 3 (another essential game for you to buy) was £180 new.. so for the extra £50 i thought may as well get the brand new and better one

Have a look at the new slim ones because they have built in wi-fi and you will get a years warranty where as second hand there's no guarantee it will work.

I have got an xbox elite but i had to pay £50 for the wireless adaptor.

Also i don't know if the new slim one is any quieter because i have to turn the volume up as it's loud sometimes
