Yeah, thoughts?

Edit: Although they aint really hidden are they?

Ye but everybody knows the 360 sets you back like £50 a year

[mangle]

Depends if you want to play on live or not.

[Excellent2]

Live is only good for demos, playing online sucks, I'd rather just kill people/play the game missions.

Seems the XBOX360 is cheap to keep, woo :)

The mosque gives me free batteries.

[Suck]

Pffft.. I don't pay for electricity anyway. :P

[GommeInc]

Not exactly alot... Not sure what they were trying to prove :/

Isn't the Wii cheapest, if you cut out Live on the Xbox?

Personal opinion..

[Moh]

Around £2 p/m isnt that much for electricity :P
(thats for ps3)

[FlyingJesus]

Doesn't mention how long it would need to be on for in order to cost that much... or if it does I didn't read it right lol

[Slowpoke]

I wouldn't really called those 'hidden'...

I think it said the electricity costs are for 2 hours per day each day of the year.. so 730 hours.

What a load of **** lol.
Their trying to make it look like huge costs. £60 a year isn't a lot. If someone can't afford that they should stick to their PS2.

[Callum.]

don't really find what they're trying to do.

i don't really care about the money i've spent, because i've had countless hours of fun.
