When I get my 360, I want to get Pro Evo 6 and Need For Speed Carbon or PGR 3.

Which one of those do you think would be better to get?

Cheers mate.

I was reading some reviews of NFS on amazon and most of them were giving 2 stars or less. PGR 3 it is then.

Wii Sells Out!
[13/12/2006 12:35]
It's the fastest selling console in history
Wii is the fastest selling console ever. After just two days on sale, 325,000 Wiis were sold throughout Europe making it a complete sell out.

Considering fans queued up for three days to get their hands on a Wii it should come as no surprise that Nintendo's new console has been so successful. It is the essential console for Christmas and as we speak, more Wii's are arriving in Europe to satisfy the unprecedented level of demand for Nintendo's new console.

Laurent Fisher, marketing Director for Nintendo Europe said: "For those who were unable to buy Wii during launch weekend, rest assured more stock is already on its way and we are doing everything possible to ensure that a steady supply of Wii units is shipped to stores across Europe throughout December and into 2007."

It's not just the console that is selling well. 74% of those lucky enough to get their hands on Nintendo's new console bought The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess while half also snapped up copies of Wii Play, which comes free with a Wii Remote.

The success of the console looks set to continue with HMV receiving a record amount of pre-orders . Tim Ellis from HMV said "The demand for Wii has been truly amazing and the official launch at our Oxford Street store was one of the biggest events we've ever staged. HMV has received a huge amount of pre-orders - beyond anything we've ever seen before - from family shoppers as well as dedicated Nintendo gamers. This suggests while Wii is obviously one of the must-have items this Christmas, it also has the potential to appeal to a huge mainstream audience over the longer term."

While Wii was selling out there was great news for DS as a record-breaking 515,000 handheld were sold in Europe, the highest sales since the launch in March 2005. It is also a Nintendo record as the company has never before sold so many consoles in a week.



totally amazing the speed of units shifted in such a short time...

im so happy,  i got a wii today through a friend who works on ebay...

               ZELDA  TWILIGHT PRINCESS-  A PURELY AMAZING EPIC...  :)    :cool:    :buttrock

Would really appreciate it anyone could offer any little suggestions about this :;):

I was wondering what bundles people bought and if it's anything like what I'm looking for.

I know that it's impossible to get exactly this, but anything remotely similar would be fantastic.

1) Xbox Console
2) 20G Hard Drive
3) 1 Controller
4) Ethernet Cable
5) HD AV cable
6) Headset

All these are uncluded in most Premium Packs.

7) Pro Evolution Soccer 6
8) Project Gotham Racing 3
9) Wireless controller

Thanks for any kind of help! :)

Yeah looks a good deal mate, the games are worth about £39.99 each and the controllers are about £35 a piece.  I'd go for it fella  :;):

PGR3 is an amazing game, I get bored of games very quickly but in the 12 months I've had my 360 I've never stopped playing PGR3, it's one of the best online games I've played..

I was wondering if I would be able to get Xbox Live with my current broadband package.

I think I have Tiscali Max, where it finds my max speed which isn't that much because we're too far away from the exchange or something?

Anyway, could I connect the Xbox to this?

Speedtouch 330. It looks like that but more rectangular.

So does anyone know if it's possible?
