Re: New XBox 360 owner- What to buy first?

For a new 360 owner...


About Accessories -

- Never get a wired controller. Its pointless. Just get a AA battery charger for $10 at target and you will never need batteries.
- Get the wireless headset by Microsoft, its really good and cool looking. A little expensive but worth it.
- If you play PC games get the Wireless Gaming Reciever so you can use ur controllers / headset on your PC.
- I would recommened the Pelican / Nyko cooling fan add-on as the 360 does run very hot.
- Buy at least 2x of the 1600 point cards right away. There are ALOT of great games to download form the XboxLive Arcade (Mortal Kombat / Streetfighter II / Doom / Paperboy / Pacman / Geometery Wars + more)
- Again, expensive, but the $100 wireless adapter really is worth it, rather than have it wired or a 3rd party wireless adapter.
- Do not put the 360 vertically! IT CAN SCRATCH DISCS!


Some Advice on Games

- Oblivion, but be prepared waste many hours
- Halo 2, an original Xbox game, but still awesome till H3 comes out
- Gears of War (not Halo, but still fun)
- Madden 07 / FNR3 / Fifa 07 if you like sports games
- I would HIGHLY recommened getting either gamefly or gameznflix if you are just getting a new system. For $20 a month you can get 3 games at a time, which really helps since games are expensive, especially new ones.
