Was the flagship model, now its the Super Elite.
Buy your game online much cheaper.

Forza Motorsport 2
COD6 (Call Of Duty)
BFBC2 (Battlefield Bad Company 2)
Are a few good games to get on the xbox, dont forget the downfall with your black box from M$ is that you need to pay £26-£30 a year to play against other people on the internet.

Elite is black, hence black box.
m$ - Mircosoft, money grabbing bastards.
You will need a network adaptor or ethernet cable to connect it to the internet/Xbox Live.
Can buy subscriptions in 1, 3 and 12 months.

i knew it existed... and they have some awesome games.... but thats about it
Nvm, shall have a new tv today for my bedroom ( sending my dad to get me one)
i had a quick look at the connectors on the box...
there is as far as i know HDMI connector and normal connectors like RCA's.... atm i dont have HDMI cable but would i benefit from getting one? TV i will get will be HD ready..
also, will 28" screen be big enough? gonna be about 2.5 metres away from my bed...

Dont worry about buying xbox live yet, you get a months trial free so just see how you like it.
Get the HDMI, 28' is fine.

Sorry for my incomprehensible slur earlier
And yes my mistake, Forze 2 is the old one, Forza 3 is the one to get £15 online I think
