Sexbox 360

I traded in my old Xbox and Playstation 2 and an assortment of near-worthless old games for them against an Xbox 360 premium today. I picked up the VGA cable (at a wallet-shattering €30) too, so that I could hook it up to my LCD monitor. The 17″ monitor doesn’t really do it justice, so isn’t it fortunate I ordered that 20″ widescreen LG one from Komplett’s weekly specials last week :)

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter is excellent. I got really immersed into it right from the get-go, but I still itch to have a keyboard and mouse when playing it. Project Gotham Racing 3 is also very good (and was a cheap pre-owned copy!), but for some reason when output to a screen running at 1280×1024 stretches itself all over the place instead of letterboxing, and thus looks like crap. Hopefully the wide screen will sort that out when it arrives next week!

Also, wireless controllers = best thing ever.

    Yeah, so I hear. I’ll get it eventually :)

    Currently playing through GRAW, which is excellent, and addicted to PGR3 online. Ordered Oblivion for €27 from sendit.com’s sale.
