Advice Needed (Xbox)

If I were to get an Xbox, which one would be best? I don't know a whole lot about the Xbox (I don't have a clue about Elite and stuff), although if I'm right then theres an arcade, premium and elite) I'm just gonna be doing casual gaming and online play mostly.

I've heard a bit about the Xbox 360, and that seems to be a good one (from what I've heard). The only thing thats stopping me is that I have a slimline PS2 with literally about 40 games, although I may sell them.

And roughly how much would the 360 be and what are the best games to get?

I was looking at that one, any good?

I wouldnt get arcade, it has no hard drive or ethernet cable, I recommend premium :)

Best game I reckon is call of duty 4 and halo 3

mine was £220 for premium and any £40 game

if your looking for better online i think you need more hard drive space so i would go for the xbox premium if not elite

The elite is a waste of cash, get the Premium.

Ok ;)

And I've read some stuff about bridging the wireless connecting from a laptop to the Xbox via an ethernet cable? Will this work?

Yes, you have to allow incoming and otugoing connections for your wireless and your bridge on the laptop though - this can cause problems but should easily be fixed with a Google of the problem. However, this can cause lag depending on what speed your wireless is running at and what programs you have running on your computer. It's best to get a wired connection ;)

Premium is best, although you should know the main advantage to Xbox is live. That comes with a £40 price tag a year.

However you can pay monthly and you get a free month with the Premium.

Yeah thats true but it isn't always best to buy per month.

It's up to him really.

Get a premium, it comes with a remote, the console (obv), and the headset. And if you need more accesories, ring up microsoft and say that you have an accesorie that is broken, and they will send you a new one right away. But make sure you dont do it too often, or else they will start asking you to send it back (the thing your claiming for, that your saying you have but it has broken)
