I got an Xbox 360 among my presents yesterday! At the moment all I have is a basic 'Arcade' system but am planning on getting a hard drive etc ASAP. I got two games into the bargain too-Lego Star Wars Original Trilogy and Virtua Fighter. There are a few bits of hardware, games etc I want, but does anyone have any specific recommendations?

When I had a 360, I quite enjoyed Test Drive Unlimited and Crackdown. Just Cause isn't bad either.

Cool- do you know where I can find a hard drive for it on the cheap, out of interest?

Try Gamestation for a reasonably priced secondhand one. Never used one myself, just used the memory unit.

Didn't know there was a memory unit, thought you had to save games onto hard drive!

On the front of your console there are 2 slots for memory units. When I got the 360 I needed something to save game files and couldn't afford the hard drive so I got a memory unit as it only cost around £25. It all depends on whether your going to download a lot of stuff or just save games.

I'll probably just save games unless there are any particularly good downloads to be honest.

If your not bothered about downloads I would go for the memory unit then, if you can still get them. Not seen them in shops for a while.
