(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Im thinking of getting an xbox but i dont know what spec to get. I know there is the slim, elite and others i think. I only need it for games just playing online and that and any help would be appreciated. I alredy own a ps3 as well so this is just for light playing not abuse like i do on my ps3.

amazon have them there's a version for £8 or one for £80 quid

eBay also is a source for them ad there a decent thing mine was the cheap one and it works fine

My mate just got one of these and although it ain't mega cheap he picked his up for 20 £ it allows you to use the six axis wireless controller and it is excellent

GET A 4GIG SLIM OR A refurbished 1

Thanks for the groan and the negative rep much appreciated

And for your information the Xbox 360 had always been able to output in 1080 through the component cable even on the original core system this did not come with a hdmi lead slot from that point on the premium system was created which incorporated the hdmi slot again it was capable of 1080 hd. The the arcade was launched along with the elite and both came with hdmi ports as standard

If you need proof the Xbox 360 Was shipped with full 1080 Capabilities what better proof than a interview article after launch at the e3 showcase with Todd holMdahl - corporate vice president Of the Xbox Product group at Microsoft

Amazingly owning an Xbox since day 2 of release and later having to buy a arcade after a rrod system spoilt my gaming (incidentally back then you only got 1 year guarantee) gets you the knowledge to post my original post at which you groaned at but in real terms were wrong

However the Xbox has only had limited games released in 1080 as until recently there was a cap to 720p on games this isn't a system related issue although I have no idea why it was done it was and still is pritty common place for new releases


Who's the fan boy now

Also you will see on wiki about the previous xboxes available and there version since November 22 2005 u will see all console could transmit 1080i from the box a update was later added to Xbox live for download to enable 1080p resolution in October 2006
