    Help me spend my cash

    Now I'm not moving out due to being on a temporary contract, and having got my Samsung 26 incher hooked up to my 5.1s, I've got a few hundred burning a hole in my pocket. I'm considering one of the following two options:

    1. XBOX 360 (looking for a decent value pack - 300 notes for console, controller and one game which isn't ever PGR seems pricey)

    2. IL-2 setup (need advice here - which games, hardware would I need)

    Thing is, I fancy wheeling around shooting bogeys, but the instant pick up and play of the 360 appeals to me.

    wow madduck, those controls look great. I think for the budget I've got, I'll get more use out of the 360 though.

    at gamestation, i paid £340 for the premium console, 5 games (pgr3, xbla:unplugged, gears, viva pinata, oblivion), and a second wireless pad. current offers include 300 for the console & any game, or 310 for the console with second wireless pad, pgr3, xbla:unplugged, wwe smackdown, and any other game.
