pistonbroke Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Just buy an Arcade unit for £100 and swap the hard drive over. The new arcade units have the very latest MB's with on board 256mb storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukenukem Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 This exactly why you need to get a PS3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 This exactly why you need to get a PS3. But he said he wants to play online with his mates. This is where the 360 is considerably better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all his mates have 360's, it's probably best he sticks with one. You have to pay for this 'betterness' though. How much is a Xbox live membership btw?

SupraDan24 Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yes it is. I've got both and its not even close. Hardly anyone used mic's on PS3..except the odd cocky American and I'd rather he just didn't speak at all Paying a yearly Live fee is worth every penny IMO. There's a tonne of info online for fixing the RROD, its pretty easy to do. My mate did his with a Hairdryer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I didn't, all I got was heavy breathing and scallys. Can't imagine it being any different on the Xbox though. My GF's brother always has his mic headset on when he's playing online. Looks really funny; he enjoys it though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missile Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 No its not... Alot of my friends are x box user's so i was kind of a loner online at 1st. But slowly more and more of them are coming over to the ps3 way of thinking due to reliability on the x box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
