Just got an XBOX 360!

This is pretty exciting for me. As an early X-Mas gift from my mom, I got a decked out Xbox 360. I’ve wanted one for quite awhile, but can never seen to get $400 in spending money at the same time, so it’s always just out of reach. But no longer. It’s a platinum system, with an extra faceplate, the media remote, and it came with a slew of games.

Titles I’ve got right now are Kameo, Halo 2, and Perfect Dark Zero. Got a slew more coming for Christmas, too.

There is two things that disappoint me a bit. First, it’s a used console from launch day, and supposedly first gen 360s have got a short life expectancy. Second, we’ve got a fairly small TV, which is lacking HD. Still, I’m looking to grab a VGA adapter so perhaps I can game a bit on my PC’s monitor (which I also really like).

I setup Xbox Live the other night, and spent close to two hours looking through credit card records trying to get the last 4 digits of the credit card I used for my original Gamertag, Mattc0m. Wasn’t able to find it after all that. So, my Gamertag is now Mattc0mGT, so please add me! I’ve played a fair bit of Halo 2, and that’s the only game I’ve been playing on Xbox Live thus far. Hope to get some online with some other games in a bit.

In the meantime, I’ll be scoring away those achievement points. To the top!
