Thats why they incased it in a white controller, to keep it in there.

They also incased it in a WHITE controller so you wouldn't know about the BLACK magic. See, and who said Microsoft wasn't thinking?

Hey Mr. Wikipedia!!! You think you could go thru all the threads and correct everyone?? That would be great. LOL! Crackdown is a fun game! Gears is an Awesome game!!! Your nuts And Forza is the kinda of racing game you get if you want a realistic racing game but if you like jumping hills while driving down the dirt road of a forest in a Ferrari then stick with Need for Speed. Dont listen to Mr. Wiki on Gears or Forza2. Lost Planet is another game that is great. Check it out.

Now is an AWESOME time to buy because you can get all the hot games from the last 18 months used for nice prices.
Also keep that HUGE ASS brick shaped power supply in a cool place.
And if you are in even a slightly dusty place you should dust your 360's air intake and air outlet every couple days because it suck up dust like hoover.

After rereading this thread I think the guy talking about the lag issue is indeed not even talking about a controller, although he does mention one. I think the lag he is speaking of is from a wireless network compared to a wired network which in that case wired is better.

And the only reason for mention the halo beta is over was because I didnt want the other guy to buy the game for something that he cant use. The beta was over on June 10th.

As for the rest of those games listed they were my opinion and therefore cant be wrong. Thats the great thing about opinions.

I too enjoy saints row, heck its only 30 bucks. I wold recommend battlefield 2 if your on a budget. The online gameplay is great. graphics are not perfect but once you start playing you dont even notice cause its so freakin fun. Gears is ok online but single player is a great story. good buy, i just bought my elite about 2 weeks ago as well. keep it in an open area and i dont even feel a lot of unusual heat coming out. my ps3 gets nowhere near as hot and its whisper quiet compared to my 360 that sounds like a plane taking off, but i still play my new 360 more than my ps3 due to lack of good games

if ur not on a budget and looking for a good game that u can play for hours get the elder scrolls IV oblivion its fun its long and addicting the just came out with the goty edition which comes with the two expansion packs (had to bye them off of the market place for a lot of Microsoft points) the shivering isles and the knights of the nine which together will prob add at least 40 more hours of game play


and i think saints row was a great game but it did get boring after beating it it has no replay value u just go around and do the same thing no story line changes no diff cut scenes and battlefield 2 is one of the best on line games out for the 360 right now & its only 30 bucs so go get it
