4gb hard drive is completely pointless, get the 250 thats way you can save the games to the HD and play them off there, speeds up loading times, makes the console nearly silent as the disk doesn't need to spin etc

You wont look back mate

So my best dutch friend lives on the other side Of the street and has an xbox 360. I tell him i might be joining xbox ranks soon and we chat. Long story short, i have his xbox until he moves in january.

So here i am connecting the xbox via av (no hdmi port on my tv, only dvi) but the screen just flickers green. Cant find any help on the net so i thought i would connect up like my ps3 is, hdmi to dvi with av still connected for sound. That would be great but the xbox av cable has a lip that blocks the hdmi port when its connected. And when the hdmi is connected, the av doesnt fit

So now i have forza 4 and cant play it at all or play without sound

Oh dear. You need the red, blue, yellow cable combo mate. Got to buy one of those as the new xbox came with HDMI only.

nothing like a incentive push

what TV do you have steve you should inthoery only need a HDMI cable plugged in sound and video should be played through one cable.

as i said i have a tv with no hdmi port, only a dvi. its an old 42inch plasma with very limited connections (one dvi, 3 scart, audio L+R in)

so i have a hdmi to dvi cable, then on the hdmi end a splitter for my 2 hdmi devices so far, ps3 and decoder
sound is done via an av splitter that is plugged into the audio in connectors on my tv

thats my setup.
I've found what i need, either the av vga cable, s video av cable or a normal av cable without that darn lip. I'm gonna get a cable tonight

the two word reply i want to give would be banned by the site so i'll explain with a few more words...

I have a ps3, anything I want on a console will be bought for that.
currently the only xbox only game im interested in is Forza, i can't justify shelling out 200+ euros right now just to play Forza, so my friend lending me his xbox is great.
After 3 months if I still want to play Forza or any other xbox only games then maybe ill think about getting one.

I find the XB one is spot on, i really dont like the triggers on the ps3, especially on driving games
