    cant play games online , well you can but there is constant 360 upgrades on live side that bans consoles that are chipped.

    if your not into xbox live gaming, then it is tres worth it

    if you are, then your gna miss out

    however its not uncommon for some people to have two 360s' one chipped one not

    but i think its not a great investment for me personally anyway, i play alot online, and alot of games online co-op

    but its perfect if youve poor internet, no internent, dont like internet

    I don't play online at all.
    €60 or €70 euro for a new game is crazy.
    Bought Call Of Duty 4 last Saturday morning and had it cleared by bedtime.

    Buy games online from sites like play-asia or videogamesplus.ca then... Only costs around €40 for COD4 from both sites.

    Don't think this thread is going to last long...

    Or go the ebay route and get them for 30e also from Asia. Never pay 50+ anyway! Unless including trade ins.

    If you chip your console you can play backups of games but
    1) You void your warranty
    2) Your console stands a decent chance of being barred from Xbox Live
    (not your profile though, which is why some people have two consoles; one for online games and one for backups)
