I'm trying to decide if I should get a couple of Play and Charge kits or some rechargable batteries. I have four controllers, so I figure 2 play and charge kits and 2 more Xbox 360 Wireless Controller batteries should suffice, but maybe a bunch of rechargable AA batteries would be more cost effective?

Just use regular batteries. No need to deal with all the recharging stuff. You can get, like, a 24 pack of AA batteries for something ridiculously cheap at a place like Sam's Club. That's what I did with my Wavebirds on my GC, and that worked fine.

I was thinking the same thing about the play and charge kits...

Right now I have two controllers both with the rechargable batterys, and one play and charge kit...

So when I get the other two controllers I'll buy one play and charge kit and one battery...

I think thats the best way to do it...

OOOolllaaalalala

360 is hidden shiftyninja.gif

TV is fricckin huge...

Parents dont know I blew my college fund money on the 360 lol

Since my mom got a new job...we are officially in the top 15% of highest earning families (aka rich)

W00t.

uhh that tv doesn't look that big, it's bigger than mine but nothing compared to most of these...

and thanks for letting us know about your MOMs personal finances...

Im just excited for us :) Not too much to worry regarding college etc. And this thing is huge, as in depth. I was expecting it to be much skinnier. Emphasis on the much.

Nice setup, I've got a 34 inch SOny CRT widescreen. It looks great but my couch just broke and I had to throw it away, so now i am playing on the floor until Crate and Barrel sends a new one in a month.

Sweet. Gotta love samsung.

How bright is the unit?

And is that 26 inch? or 30? I cant tell from the pic...maybe its a 34 heh

Not a gamecube fan?

it's actually a 30 inch and the picture quality is quite superb....very bright as well. i actually am a gamecube fan...but i recently removed it to make room for the x360...hehe.

Guy with the samsung and 5500 setup, I have a question for you.

Do you have digital sound through all your consoles? I'm with a similiar setup and as the z-5500's only have 1 optical connection, i'm kind of screwed. I've been thinking a cheap reciever will do the trick, what do you think?

yea i guess you can get a receiver...i personally don't have the space to fit one in my setup. all i simply do is switch the optical cable to whichever console i play...they're all close together and easily accessible, so it's not a problem for me.
