Well I got a fucking nice Xbox 360 for christmas this morning accompanied by Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion (which by the way is a fucking quality game!). Anyway, after playing it for ages my parents said lunch was going to be ready soon so I decided to save my game and turn off the 360 while I puffed away on a couple of joints before lunch.
HOWEVER, apparantly I can't save my game unless I buy some memory which costs another 20 quid! Fucking con I tell you, fucking con!

Every console that uses discs needs memory cards to save, so far (though it's changing for this generation, with hard drives and internal memory).
A memory card is around £18 notes.
Tbh you've been given the 360 as a gift thus it cost you NOTHING i dont see that having to spend 18 or 65 on a device to save is any hardship to you.
I had to work my arse off for months to save up to buy my 360 ! Be happy you didnt have to do that
For the record you dont have to pay for the memory if you buy the premium pack which comes with the HD.
The original Xbox had a hard drive.
The cards are 64mb and about 20 quid.
The hard drive is 65 quid and 20Gb.
The hard drive will give you better performance as well. Oblivion is one of the games that is affected by the lack of the hard drive, the load times are a lot longer without it.
:yes: Thank you.
Yes I have been playing consoles for a while but as an Xbox owner which had a hard drive, and not a PS2 owner, I assumed this would aswell.
I would buy a hard drive but I'm REALLY low on cash.
Don't see why you can't just network the thingy up and save the files on your computer
I got a 360 as a present too, though I got the hard drive with it
I might pick up Oblivion in the next couple of weeks. You Live yet?
Gamertag?
So if any of you want help hacking them and erm, backing up for existing games? Let me know! lol
No I haven't got Live yet but will be soon!
Definately get Oblivion, fucking excellent game.
You played Gears of war? I want to know if that's worth getting.
Definitely, it's superb.
I've been playing away at it on my wee brother's 360 that he got for Christmas. He's barely got near the thing, haha!
It's brilliant though. Absolute action packed gore fest. Looks stunning and plays like a dream. Buy it now.
Oh and for the craic - best review of Oblivion evar from the genius that is the Consolvania boys -

I finished it earlier today as well, but I had been spending alot of time on it.
Did you do it 2 player or just by yourself? I just did it by myself, but think I'm going to take on a harder difficulty with my brother.
I already can't wait for a sequel.
