What Games are you Currently Playing?
It's hard getting used to the controls, I so much prefer keyboard and mouse these days to a controller, but yeah seems pretty sweet so far.
I have to say Condemned is the game thats really blown me away, its made by Monolith (of F.E.A.R. fame) and it looks amazing, makes FEAR look crap (and that's saying something)- really atmospheric and creepy
Kameo seems like a fun game, graphically once again out of this world, haven't played it too much yet.
Not so sure about King Kong, looks great but need to give in a decent play. got it with the package so wasn't too bothered about it.
PG3 looks and played sweet, never seen anything like it. had a top laugh playing it over Live with a load of pissed Irish chaps last night
All in all the 360 is far better than i had imagined. easy to set up on the wireless network and supports WPA with no fuss. the connection using the Microsoft Wireless Bridge is strong and i experienced no lag playing online last night. When you switch the 360 on it automatically logs you on to Live and brings up your game-card etc i like how easy it is.
I haven't got round to streaming music over the connection form my PC, need some media software installed on my XP Xbox to do it - may try that today.
The controllers are far better than the original Xbox, really comfy to use this time round so that's a big plus - I cant fault them in any way. The only thing I would say is it took me a few minutes to configure the wireless controller the first time round, reading the instructions first may have helped there though.
The 360 is reasonably quiet when running, although louder than the original Xbox when working hard. Generally nothing to worry about there though and lets face it it looks a lot better than the original Xbox. The Mrs actually likes looking at it under the TV which says a lot.
All in all good first impressions.
