    How do folks.

    Just got myself an elite to sit on my shelf beside my ps3 and wii (which hasnt been switched on since mayish, I think I'm ore of a collector than a user :)) . What I'm after is a 2nd controller, 2 rechargeable battery packs and the charging stand. Anyone know the best place to pick these up in Dublin. If it works out much cheaper I might hang on and pick them up online. Any other accessories that are recommended. I suppose I should get the wireless adapter?

    Next up: games. Anyone recommend any ? I'm going to pick up the orange box on PC so dont need that. Probably stick with 360 exclusives or games that play noticabley better on 360 than ps3 , mainly because at the moment I prefer the ps3 controller and havnt usedthe xhox ones before.

    I was in xtravision and they have gears of war 2nd hand for €25 and in a 3 for 2. The other games that I picked out (not a great selection) were supermam and PGR3. Comes to €55 for the 3. Worth it?

    Cheers folks.

    Get the HD-DVD add on. The accessories may be cheaper on Ebay.

    What kinda games are you into ?

    I picked up Fight Night 3 (2nd hand) and it's pretty good, as well as Virtua Tennis 3 (awesome).

    You can also download the demos from marketplace to see what you think before buying...

    TBH I'll play pretty much anything thats good. I played a good bit of Fifa 08 on the PS3.

    I like the idea of fight night alright.I kind of prefer FPS's on the PC. I suppose it just hard coming away from the mouse/keyboard controls. :)

    COD4 is definately on the list. Just dont know whether to get it on the PS3 or XBOX. Is there any noticable difference or is it much of a muchness?

    Get Mass Effect if you have any interest in RPGs... or even action games.
    It is without doubt my game of the year

    I'd say give the 360 controller a bit more time before you decide which version of CoD4 to buy, its better suited to FPS games and is a far better all around controller imo.

    I'd also advise on getting 2 play and charge kits, they're dead handy.
