I want to be cool and stuff, I could do with HDMI so I can use composite for the Wii.

Elite, Blue Dragon and The Darkness for £299 delivered?
Looks good to me. Tempted to pick a drivingy game instead though.

Aye, that'll be the one I meant

VGA's no good for me, I need the space free to hook up the laptop/PC, so I've got the 360 going in via component with the Wii going via scart. I guess there's not a huge difference between scart and component for the Wii, it's not the graphical powerhouse the 360 is.

Na, it doesnt make a great deal of difference, though it's obviously more polished, particularly on the channel select screen etc. Nothing worth pulling out all the stops for though imo

That's what I was thinking. It's something I'll sort out way down the line (probably when I eventually move to an Elite), I'm in no rush for it

Agreed. I never bothered reinstalling after my last OS rebuild. Haven't regretted that decision. And to think I once thought it was the best thing since sliced bread*.

* Exaggeration, to prove the point.

Have fun with the new 360.
