i'm buying this xbox thingy for my partner. i think its called xbox 360 or something. anyway does this need to be connected to a tv or can it work with a pc?

need all the advice i can get cos i have no clue about xbox lol and i need you to tell me what shooting games there are that he can play on xbox
 
Halo is really the only worthwhile game exclusive to the system. Make sure you buy an extended warranty as these are still riddled with problems. It is a gaming console so you would need a tv to connect it to. There are ways to connect it to a computer monitor but it depends on the inputs of your specific monitor. All I can say with the xbox is "good luck." you'll need it.
 
hmmm i dont know much about it but thats what he wants. someone said something about call of duty and zombie apocalypse.

so i need to get an extended warranty and...what other games?
 
Your better off just using the supplied AV Cable and hooking it up to your TV. Xbox also includes an HDMI Cable for use with an HDTV. As far as shooter games go thiers a large selection, Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2 available Nov. 10, Gears of War 1 & 2, Bioshock, Halo 3, Halo ODST. But I would strongly recomend getting Modern Warfare 2.

xBoxes no longer include hdmi cables with the new price drop.

All the games you suggested are great games!

bummer! It'd be much cheaper to get a ps3. Don't get me wrong, I'm an xbox fanboy but xbox is expensive!

hmm that's weird cos over here ps3 are more expensive! i was looking at them in the shops and xbox is cheaper. weird. why is it the other way round over there?
 
and dont forget about xbox live... :D its 50 a year or 7 a month. but new xbox's come with 3 free "one month" accounts.

as for shooting games... fisherman included the best ones especially all the call of duty games and halo 3. battlefield: bad company, 1943 and bad company 2 are also good shooters. and the whole zombie thing, thats call of duty world at war (they have extra zombie maps for sale once you get onto xbox live)
