Ok. So, I've been thinking about buying an Xbox 360, and I have some questions. For some reason, I can't find anything online that I want to know, so I'll ask here.
1. How many games with 4GB hold without installing games? I don't care about load times, so I won't be installing any games. So, with 4GB, how many games will I be able to have?
2.Is a wired controller or wireless better? I've heard both. I don't really mind cords, and I would find it annoying always having to change batteries. So, which should I get? I'm thinking wired, because they cost less, but I'm not sure. I don't really care if it's not awesome quality as long it lasts a while.
3.What are some good (reasonably cheap) games? I don't really care about genre (fantasy, modern, sci-fi, etc). I'm not interested in blood and gore, and no "M" rated games.
1. Depends on the game, I'd say 2-3 if you're buying from the marketplace. Probably not even that.
If I buy the game as a disk, and don't install any, how many would I get? And would it be worth it to pay $190 instead of $130 (though I don't have a lot of money) to get 250GB.

1) 4gb should be more than enough for any number of game saves, as most game saves are measured in KB or a few MB. EDIT: As for full games downloaded and installed from Xbox Live Arcade, not many; for instance, my installation for Guilty Gear XX takes about 1.2 GB. Also be aware that some games (particularly more recent and online multiplayer games) have large patches that need to be installed. DLC can also take up quite a bit of space.
2) It's up to personal preference. The wired controller ships with the 360 and additional controllers (both wired and wireless) can be purchased separately. I have both types and generally prefer the wireless so I can play from anywhere in the room (and don't have to worry about folks tripping on the cords while others are playing). I normally use the wired controllers for the PC nowadays.
3) Any older game could be picked up for cheap used at one's local game store.
Most games I have for the 360 are rated M so that excludes most games I'd normally recommend, though some non-M games I'd recommend looking into are (in no particular order, and some of these I played on PC rather than 360):

2. Any will work, I prefer wired as your controller wont disconnect mid-game. The build quality of both wired and wireless are exactly the same.
3. Can't answer this one, as I'm not familiar with American ratings.

2. Wired is much better. No random deconnects.
3. I reccomend BF3 or Ghosts. Both are PEGI 16 in Europe.

How much is that? I'm a teen, and right now at least, I'm only making money from mowing lawns, and so I'm not getting that much.

For one, I don't know how much it is. I've heard everything from $15 to $120.
Thanks.

I got my 1TB internal hard drive for my pc for about €50. I basically halved that ish.
Just get a 250gb one. I have a friend with a 250GB Xbox and he has never filled it. Man PC gaming takes alot of space :3
