Title: Bitten the Bullet. 2nd 360.
Post by: soopahfly on August 19, 2007, 07:19:53 AM
Just bought a second xbox 360 from the bay of E.
Its a core, comes with 2 controllers, memory card and cost me £150ish.

Rest assured I will be inspecting it with a fine tooth comb and if its banned, its going straight back.  This will be my XBL machine.  Swap my existing HDD, and silver bezel.  I also have 4 wireless controllers already.

GoW...Here I come again!

Cheeky bugger.

Paid £20 postage, thinking it would be some sort of recorded service.

Nope.  Standard Parcel, cost £12.92 to post.  And came in a scraggy box.

Have sent him a message asking him to refund the difference.

oh noes, I hate that controller, I want the military green one from the original pictures!!!

If I got that one I would just leave it in its packaging never to be opened, or eBay it :lol:

That controller is one of the 2 Todd Mcfarlane designed ones that will be sold seperately. The one youll get with the console is still the green one.

I too have bitten the bullet and bought a second Xbox 360, an Elite this time so I can take advantage of HDMI and the larger HD while also taking advantage of some Great Universal vouchers to get it for £246 :D  Just a matter of waiting for delivery.

Tis nice the elite, matt black

I looked to see how much the black countroler cost compared to the normal white - lol. More expensive just becuase it is black

Just another way to rip uk folk off. You have a new elite, its very nice and black, you would prefer a black second controller at least to match up so they will milk you for all your worth
