Good 4 U! I would love to play, but wouldn't know where to start. The last computer game I ever played was pin pong; a very old version.

Felix you pick it up quite quickly, also games consoles these days do much more than play games as im sure you allready know you can extend your media, watch HD Movies, chat on messenger, download our favorite TV shows, share your photos, video and voice chat freinds and much more. Might be a worthy investment for some.

My son-in-law has both, and Xbox and a PlayStation. I used the PlayStation to watch Blu-Ray movies and they look sharp, but the discs are pricey. I also understand that you can network your X-Box, hook it up to a stereo system and it streams media from your Vista Home Premium or Ultimate PC. Is that correct?

The media streaming allows you to broswe your videos music and photos on your TV. It also allows you to get the Windows Media interface on your TV.

I agree that HD movies are expensive, i personaly dont buy them, but i do download HD trailers and i will download TV shows when IPTV finaly hits the UK.
