For those that saw my voucher thread in Off Day,

I've just done the unspeakable....

I've just bought an XBox 360 Elite

Now, you may think I could have got cheaper from GS, but I had £30 off and it was £169.99 anyway! Plus work only gets me £10 off consoles

I feel so cheap now! I planned to get one whilst working here but it feels so wrong buying one!

Picked up Bioshock pre owned for £13 too



PS3 FTW etc

I agree with that.

Xbox is just shit. Too big and bulky and the sticks are in the wrong position. Why would it be natural to have your left thumb higher than than right? Just stupid

I think the only game I would want that the PS3 doesn't have is Forza. But I'm not buying an Xbox just for that.

Why change something that works so well? Everything is where it should be and it fits in your hands so much better

Playstation controller is rubbish, it has no weight and feels wrong.

N64 is decent, but I had a fiddle with mine the other day and the joystick is a bit loose these days.
