Oh well now it looks like it def time to make the shift, better start looking at the price of an Xbox and getting one of my TEs dual modded.

um pass? Pretty hard to get decent fight sticks for reasonable prices here some one on the forum might be able to help you out and as far as consoles go I think they are about the same everywhere. Trade me wouldn't be too bad I guess.

dunno if EB games still do it, but I got my 360 second hand with a 1 year warranty for about $130.
I wouldnt reccoment paying extra fot the bigger hardrive either. You just need enough to install SSF4 and thats it!

you install the game data onto the hard drive so it reads off that instead of the disc. makes it a bit quicker. makes a big difference on ps3 not that much but worth it on 360.

and yeh, you'l need xbox live but if you buy a new one you'll get a month free. its $25 for 3 months and i think 70ish? for a year?

na it still reads the disc once to make sure you have it lol.

um it has a month on it already you just activate it by taking it online when you set up an account on the xbox... so if ya want you can hold off a month to buy a subscription or whatever

Don't buy your sub online cause it's a pain in the arse to change your sub.  Just buy it from a store.

Whats the deal with mics on Xbox360. I have a bluetooth headset for my PS3 and I don't really want to buy a new headset because I'm already buying the Xbox, getting my stick modded and getting Xbox Live just to play 2 or 3 games >:(
Anyway this is what I have for PS3:


I use one of those because I can't wear the small ones that hook around your ears because of wearing glasses already :'(

You'll get a mic for it when you buy your 360.  Unfortunately graham, if you are dual modding your stick, you wont be able to use the wired mics in your stick, and will have to shell out for the wireless ones, which are like 80 bucks iirc.
