I'll hopefully be joining the 360 crowd in the near future
Getting an Elite through a phone deal
Any suggestions on games to get me started?
And is it worth eBaying for games?

Crackdown is a great game both to play and show the console off a bit

Cool I'll go hunt around once the console turns up (hopefully)

Driving or First Person Shooters normally but I've been Guild Warsing for the last 2 1/2 years or so So I'm a bit out of it as to what's good and what isn't.

Sam should be getting a Wii as well so we'll be consoled up

Shame the wifi adaptor for the xbox is so expensive as I'll have to run a cable from the front room to the modem in the dining room.

FPS games to get are.....COD4 (a must), Gears of War, Rainbox Six Vegas, Bioshock....errrr

How about getting a cheaper wireless access point for the 360 Mic? Have a look back through these threads, me and Davey were talking about using one instead of him buying the wireless adapter.

Would something like this work as a wireless adaptor for the 360? (wireless noob here )

No mate sorry. You could get something like this:

The disadvantage is they need powering on their own though. You can probably find cheaper than that if you hunt around
