Money help: So I bought this refurbished XBOX 360 for an excellent price. - Help.com

So I bought this refurbished XBOX 360 for an excellent price.

It was the 20GB HDD model for $171 shipped. Not bad right? Although the only problem is it doesn’t looked factory refurbished, it looks used. That doesn’t really bother me because it works and it came with all the accessories and the original box. So I have a cool new XBOX and no games. That’s cool because I’ve been having fun streaming movies and accessing my video library from my XBOX. It’s cool to watch DIVX movies from my laptop on my TV with no wires. I’m starting to get bored now and I don’t know what else this thing can do. I have a headset and no one to talk to. Are there any chat rooms on this thing? What free games can I get? I have a bunch of crap for my Wii that I don’t use and I’m thinking about selling it on Ebay to get some money to buy some XBOX games. I bought the Wii Fit balance board for my girlfriend (we broke up). I also bought another Wiimote and Nunchuck and the Sonic and Mario at the Olympics game. All of which I don’t need anymore. Can anyone recommend some good XBOX games or something I can do on my XBOX that’s really cool and kills time?

Buy a controller and an Xbox live card. Not expensive. Then play every demo you can download from XBox live - will give you an idea of what you like before you buy anything. You can also get free demos from the XBox website. - Mas

I have a one month free trial for Xbox live. I don’t even know what that means. I hate the idea of paying for online gaming. Always have, ever since I used to play quake and it became a pay to play thing. I used to online game before money got involved.

I like strategy games because I’m no good at action games. When I had my old Xbox 100 years ago I had Hitman 2, and that Tom Clancy game (the spy one). My friend plays call of duty on his ps3 and it looks fun but hard. I’m not really a hard core gamer but that game looks fun.

I’ve alredy downloaded a Street Fighter trial game but I think its only for two players.

Strategy games mostly. I suck at video games. I only play to pass the time. I’m pretty good on Mario Kart for Wii. If you have it, I’ll gladly give you a whooping in it.

The games that I play right now are pretty fun and pretty easy to play: Saints Row 2 [fun on XBox Live too], Ridge Racer 6 [old as hell], Rock Band 2 [if you’re into that stuff].

My cousin said to ask you if you play NBA games… Also, he said that the Bourne Conspiracy is a good game too.

I’m going to keep my all my Wii stuff. I actually like my Wii despite how little I play it. I’ll look through my games and tell you what I have in a sec.

Tell your cousin I haven’t played an NBA game since Nintendo 64. I don’t really do sports games like madden or live. I’m so bad at them.

Mas I’m going to shout you my Xbox Live name too.

Well you want xbox live(in my opinion). Thats ~$7 a month or less if you buy in bulk or something.

Secondly, you may want a play and charge if you don’t want to go through 50 million batteries.

Some popular games are The rockband games, guitar hero, Gears of war, Halo3, call of duty 4 and world at war.

If you want something different and don’t mind spending ten bucks or so check out Chromehounds(only if you get xbox live). It’s old now but still has a semi active community.

And lastly, be warned some people are mean online. Alot of team killing on certain games, tons of name calling, and a good deal of racists.
