XBOX 360!
What can I say, got one of these yesterday, plugged in and within 10 mins XBOX live sorted and I'm on-line playing PGR3

Still got to sort the media centre stuff out but this thing rocks!

I've been a Sony die hard for a while now but this is just a best console there is right now... power supplies a tad on the large size though

Have you got a high def TV? I've been eyeing one of these off.

No, I'm shacked up at Claire's so until we move house no TV, but it is switcheable between normal TV (50/60hz) and HDTV 720 and the higher one???, looks amazing on a normal TV so no doubt it'll knock your socks off on HD

Excellent, it's supposed to have proper dolby surround sound etc as well. I'm sold!

The high def makes a huge difference. My Sky picture looks average compared to watching a DVD through all the HD kit.

Sky+ will HD soon too ...

Downloaded a demo of Quake 4 this morning (600Mb) so got that to entertain me this evening

No idea of anyone else on here has one, I'd imagine Chillo might.... my XBOX gamer tag for anyone who might be interested is "FREAK UK" good eh?

Ooh! I loved Quake, spent far too many hours in front of that. I actually blame UT: GOTY Edition for me having to wear glasses to look at screens and read now!
