Just Got An Xbox 360 For Christmas. :(

[trinell05]

I have no idea what to do with this thing, lol. My aunt went crazy on black friday and bought me one for $139. I'm so behind in next gen systems that I can even contemplate what to buy, or even how to play the game. I've only touched an xbox controller like once in my life and I've been stuck in Wii hell for a while now, so other than kiddie game shit, I don't know what to get. I just bought my brother Assassin's Creed Revelations or some shit, but I don't know if that's something I would play. This is totally a dumb topic, I know, but do you guys have suggestions for xbox games for a complete noob? I'm about to sneak downstairs and grab my brothers GTA for practice. Also, which online games are the most the fun? Thanks!

Get ready for it to break after 2 months.

I just saw a commercial for that Skyrim thing. Looks pretty intense. And if my shit breaks after 2 months, I'm fuckin calling Microsoft and I'm gonna go off. Seriously, when you go apeshit, they kiss your ass. Works for Comcast like a charm.

I just saw a xbox live starter kit for like $69 bucks and it comes with a headset, messenger thingie, 12 months of gold membership and 400 points. I did the math on each of those things separate and I'm saving like $60 if I go that route. Is there some fine print I don't know about because it seriously sounds too good to be true, but the ratings are very high.

Would GTA 5 be available in Xbox 360?

[SG.]

Yeah, it would.

Left 4 Dead, Gears of War and Shadow Complex (it's a XBLA game) are all exclusive to Xbox 360, and they're great.

Thanks man.

I felt bad that my brother's xbox was going out, so I bought him a 250gb Xbox slim. He's an extreme gamer, so do you think that's enough space for him? I'm pretty sure he only has 60gb right now. And shit, I figured that since I was getting it for only $199 it was actually a better deal than what I got.

250GB's the best you can get, so punch him in the face if he's not happy with it.

Btw, ps3 > xbox

I've wanted a ps3 for so long but no one in my family has one, so I wouldn't be able to play online with them. Also, people grabbed all of the $199 ps3's when I went to Black Friday. I was able to pick up two xbox 360s out of the 5 left with no hassle at Target, though. Damn, those people at Walmart went apeshit at 10pm, fighting over $3 waffle makers and food choppers. I did want a chopper, though. One dude grabbed like 20 of them.

I guess I'll just post here from time to time about my struggles with this xbox, though. For example, I totally did not pay attention to the driving directions when I played GTA and could not move the car. I thought my controller was broken. I kept pressing x, I mean A, thinking I was still playing on my ps2. And does the game save automatically, or do I have to go home? I thought it said press y to save while I was at the house, but then, after I completed a mission, it saved as well. I got tired and just turned the game off. Did I fuck up? I'm also feeling a bit overwhelmed by the graphics and how tangible everything is. It's kinda scary to me.

It autosaves

Normally I'd suggest getting a Kinect & a fitness game to help get you in shape. But since you have no intention of doing that, get the Hell's Kitchen video game, i'm sure you'd be alot more excited if you knew Xbox had cooking games wouldn't you? You fat Somalian satchel of simmering sloth shit. Oh and remember, the Xbox hooks up to your TV, not the microwave.

Saints Row 2 was fun,
