<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Evening peeps
I feel I should get an XBOX 360, just because everyone else has one!
Seriously though, Argos have 3 different versions: XBOX 360 Arcade, XBOX 360 and XBOX 360 Elite - is it worth paying extra for the Elite one?
Two more quick questions: does it play DVDs to a good enough quality to get rid of the DVD player? Does it connect to the internet wirelessly?
Sorry for the stoopid questions
Thanks in advance
Donna, not 100% sure here but I think the Elite is the only one with an HDMi output for 1080p output to your TV (if it can do 1080p) Mine is an older boggo standard version without HDMi.
I use mine to play DVD's through an RGB cable and it's fine quality for the picture, the only small grumble I have is that the sound never gets that loud - it's ok but if you crank up the volume it never seems to get that much louder. The output from my £15 Tesco's DVD player deafens me on the same volume setting on my tv. I think the Xbox doesn't amplify the sound signal or so Gav said once. Maybe not an issue if you've got a surround sound system.
Wireless connection works too, you just need the wireless adaptor which plugs into the back of the Xbox
