If (Emphasis on If :p) you bought a 360 Premium, does it come with the cables to hook it up to a tft?
Really don't know much about the various different cables, so was just wondering the difference :)

Unless you have a TFT that takes component, then no.

You have to buy one.
Haly

What do you need then? And most importantly, how much does it set you back?

One of these I believe:

Although third party equivalents are available.

You might be able to find the official ones cheaper.

I think mine was about £20.

Ahh not bad :) Seems to make sense if I bought one to hook it up to the tft rather than the tv.

If.... or when? ;)

I have a fiver that she'll have one before Christmas. Safe bet I reckon ;)
Haly

Well it is when. It just depends if when is this year, Christmas or next year :p

Has someone been playing over the weekend? ;)

Nope, just keep thinking about it. And the very quiet house I live in, does not help at all ;D

You're welcome to come to Liverpool and play on mine at some point. I'm sure a good session on Dead Rising, Saints Row and others will more than convince you :D

Don't tempt me :(
I'm convinced, it's just getting to a stage where I feel ok with spending the money.
Dead Rising is definitely something I want to get when I do get a 360, although the difficulty puts me off slightly :embarassed:

What difficulty? I've not really had any trouble with it. The secret is making yourself aware that you won't do everything on your first run through (or your 2nd actually, as I found out this morning), so just enjoy doing what you can, finding new and fun ways to kill the zombies, and level your character up. I'm on level 44 now and can kill zombies in many many cool ways ;D
Haly
25-09-2006, 13:27
Ahh fair enough then :D Heard it was harder than that.
I reckon a racing game (probably PGR3), Dead Rising and maybe one other game will do me fine.
Aargh why am I thinking about it yet ;D

I'm nicking it off you, I need food :p

Was just checking whether I'd be able to make do with trading in my x-box, but not all my games are backwards compatible :/ And I do quite like the look of my crystal x-box.

Level 50 gives you the zombie mimic skill. Fairly useless but pretty funny!
