THe 360 games sure are expensive. While I dont mind doing the firmware hack, is it reversible in case MS manages to patch it in a future update? Or should I just wait right now. I saw gamefly and gameznflix have pretty affordable plans(~$10 -15 per month) for renting 360 games, should I just do that instead of going for the hack.

You can undo the firmware as needed, just as long as you don't brick up the drive by mistake before doing so.

Games on ebay are dirt cheap, and they are new. Also sites such as play-asia have many mult region games for less than half price. The most i have payed for a game off ebay is 35 shipped. i got tony hawk today for $16.50.

Yep ebay is the way to go for buying games for the 360...Got Oblivion, Need 4 Speed and Fight Night Round 3 for £60 including P+P...Ok they were second hand but not a mark on them.

They are coming out with chips and adapters that automatically switch between the hacked firmware and the original firmware this is mostly so if you own the original you can still play online without a problem.

I bought PDZ for $19.99 from Outpost, they also had PGR3 for the same price in store. Truth is I wont really enjoy the 360 till I do something adventurous on it Very Happy
