Gotham (obviously being a PHer )
Perfect Dark Zero
Amped 3
Fifa
Quake4

Also Tiger Woods and John Madden, but they haven't shipped yet.

Should be enough to keep me going for a few days though. Can't wait

Played with one today, the media centre extender mainly.

What a cracking bit of equipment it is...

Cool. Been checking out some of the online reviews and it appears that Quake4 absolutely sucks on the 360 - Top 4 games look to be Perfect Dark, Call of Duty 2, Kameo and PGR3.

Not really considered this side of the 360, as i didn't get on with Windows Media Center. Is it slick?

Very much so, same look and feel.

Big bonus for the UK market too as we didnt get extenders as stand alone boxes.

One of the lucky 50 then (rumour has it that Play ordered 5000, and have been allocated 50). Despite pre-ordering on the first day or pre-orders being taken, Play are unable to deliver one to me Good thing I had a backup pre-order at Dixons which I think is on it's way

PGR3, Quake4, Call Of Duty 2 have been sent by Play. Busy week-end ahead ...

Oooh, do you think it could replace a PC with Media Edition on? It'd be considerably cheaper

when into ASDA in lonewell green Bristol to find people who have been camping for 10 hours to get a 360. WHY ON GODS EARTH. I want one but will get one when they are cheaper and more avaleble


Whats the rush. I bought a PS1 @ 2 and Xbox the day they came out to find not much out and the games where crap. Sol the xbox after 6 months as the games apart from Halo where not funto play. then bought anotther xbox as it was great fun when mates come over to play

give it 3-4 months and they will bet better and cheaper
