I'm always gonna buy a Nintendo console (because I love Mario, Zelda, et al

and now I think the 360 will be just as powerful and has great online
support.

and £200 cheaper...


I like the look of Live Arcade and marketplace - are they actually any good
though?
quite a few decent games, Geometry Wars is a work of genius.


I love retro games but is the current/imminent line-up any good and
what are the prices? Also are the demos and movie trailers free?


I'm thinking of picking up a Premium pack 2nd hand for about £230 are there
any issues with registering it or anything else I should look out for?

Finally which games? I'm thinking COD2, PGR3, Oblivion and Kameo. Anything
good coming in the next 6 months?

from the games I have PGR3, Call of Duty 2, Quake 4, PDZ are all great
both offline & online, Ridge Race is very playable offline and from my
very limited experience (only had it a week) Far Cry looks great as
well. I haven't got Oblivion but my mate doesn't play anything else.
Only Amped 3 would have been a disappointment at full price but at the
17.99 I paid from play.com even that is worth the price I paid


Thanks
