Yeah, that's kind of stupid. I mean, the only two things you could be paying for on the wireless antenna are the software and the hardware, and both combined are only worth about $30, IMO.

Are you serious? There's a wireless adaptor that allows for either joining a wireless network to play over Xbox Live or to play Wireless Ad-Hoc in games.
There is a cheaper way to do it, but it requires buying a wireless router, installing DD-WRT on it, then enacting "Router to Router" mode.

The HDMI lead you find by all the PS3 Gear costs $100 lmao. It says it's the best quality, which is funny because HDMI is digital and you'll either have a picture or you won't.

well i have a ps3, and i like it and all but its a huge 'meh' and i see the 360 and it looks like a better media hub.. plus its online is better... and i just want to play some of the games on the 360...
this current gen of consoles has been so far, a massive massive let down with the exception of MGS4 which is one of the best games ever...but everything else GT5p, Tekken online, GTA4 are all meh non of them are very good and the 2 arnt even full games....
and the wii is even worse for a hardcore game like my self... and the xbox has had so many people wanking over it, i would like to give it the benefit of the doubt even if i dont like Halo 3...
