Title: Is this a good deal for a 360? Post by: cytog64 on October 28, 2008, 01:12:32 PM Is this a good deal for a 360? A friend of mine pointed me to a deal at tiger direct: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=4199871&sku=M17-9200 It appears that there is no HDMI port on the refurbished unit and I was kind of hoping for one to use with my 1080p LCD TV. The 20gb hdd is only going to be used for save games so I am hoping it will be enough. I don't need to store movies or music as my Computers do the job much better. I have been considering buying a 360 after I tried out some new games at a BiC camera store in Tokyo a month ago. The games I really want to play are in this list: http://www.square-enix.com/na/game/xbox360/ Title: Re: Is this a good deal for a 360?

20g if all your doing is game saves is plenty should be no issues there at all. Title: Re: Is this a good deal for a 360? Post by: JeLLITYMe on October 28, 2008, 05:44:53 PM Price is rather good.

The games I really want to play are in this list: http://www.square-enix.com/na/game/xbox360/ It depends on which generation of Xbox360 it is if you will get a HDMI port or not, I am going to assume launch generations because they had the biggest problems (Heatsink and Mobo clamp issues leading to three wonderful red lights) and those don't have one. But you don't see much a difference between 1080p and 720p on a 360 anyway (I don't). If you wanting to use the 20g just for saves, then go with that because you will still have a good amount of room on your drive for must have XBL arcade games (Castle Crashers, Braid, etc.). Overall a good deal I believe. |
