360 GET!

Post by Ambrose Burnside »

Hopefully later today.

I say "hopefully" because I went to Harvey Norman yesterday expecting to walk out with one, but they were sold out. They sold their last on Saturday :run:

So yeah, I'll be wandering around the place with a Harvey Norman catalogue trying to find someone who a) has stock and b) will price match. The most annoying thing though is that Harvey Norman no longer do the Massive Entertainment Pack + game of my choice for $700 (it would have been Vegas) which was far and away the best deal around :cry: but 360 + PGR3 for $598 is alright I guess. It would be good if I can choose any game though (instead of PGR3) because then I'll choose Vegas instead.

If not, I'll pick up Vegas next week :up:

:gaymove:

Will I need to unlock all the good cars in PGR3 single player in order to compete online, or will the default ones do? I need to make the most of the free month :D

I think they still sell the Massive Entertainment Pack (assuming they have stock), just without the extra game of your choice for the same price.

PGR3 has pretty much everything unlocked for online play so you wont be at a disadvantage!

Do you have a TV that can do 60hz yet? Even better do you have a TV that does HD? If not Grab yourself a cheap VGA lead from play-asia and use your monitor (assuming it is okish).

Whatever you do, don't take the sensible option and set up your Xbox Live account on PC beforehand. No free month of Gold for me! :? :owned:

Yep, and you'll have to use the controller to enter all the text :down:

I've seen someone set up the Xbox 360 before and that's how they set it up - free month of Gold for them. I take what seems like the sensible option by setting it all up beforehand - no free month of Gold for me :down:

1. You can use a USB keyboard on the 360
2. Migrations from XB1 get a month put onto their accounts, so maybe it's just new accounts
