Finally got my paws on the 360 today. After having some doubts, a not bad show and a few hardware scares I didn’t really know what to expect. After a few hours with PGR3, Live arcade and the interface in general I am overwhelmed – it is an amazing console.
Graphically above anything today (including high end pc’s) it’s the interface, connectivity and flexibility that wins over everything else. I’ve got so much I want to write but I’m too tired, want to play some more games and in between that I’m reading up on which LCD I should buy this weekend. Yes – I have fallen for it in a big way.
So – more detailed guff to follow and some nice piccies when I get my behind in gear. The only negative is that it’s such a good machine yet anyone reading this will be struggling to get one. Shame.
My boss camped out at Toys’R’Us from 4 in the morning to get his. Last I seen of him was heading home to connect it up to his HD projector with 12 foot screen. Good to hear you like it. How did you get your hands on one?
I noticed that Game were still allowing pre-order’s on the core (cheap) system. So I ordered it and all the extra’s and it got delivered yesterday, today and hopefully the other bits tomorrow. Shakeels was aquired from a lot of hunting last night and early this morning – got the last core system at John Lewis this morning. There were guys camping at the sunny Govan Toys’R’Us last night at 10PM – madness.
The setup your boss has sounds superb – it will look amazing.
Sounds like we are the lucky ones, mine was waiting at home after I got back from work. PGR3 is fantastic and now I am finally on Live its even better. Haven’t seen any crashes yet either!
