Having fun with the Xbox 360 in Saigon

Submitted by on Saturday, November 22, 2008 – 11:08 pm4 Comments |

Today I had some really great excite over at Patrick‘s place in The Manor.  I got to play with his new Xbox 360 that he recently purchased from the US.  This was the first time I ever played any video game on a 42 inch HD LCD TV (Toshiba).  Let me tell you something, it was addicting.

Patrick first showed me how to play Fallout 3.  It took some time to get used to it but then we played for about 3 levels.  After one hour, we switched to Halo 3.  Wow, I got addicted.  While Patrick was editing some pictures for me, I kept playing.  I forgot how long I played but it took a long, long time before I got killed (actually my player was killed earlier since I did not know how to fire the guns correctly.  Once I figured out….).  Finally, a grenade killed my player and we ended the night.

Looks like I will have many more nights playing with Patrick’s Xbox 360 in the near future icon smile Having fun with the Xbox 360 in Saigon

Below are some Fallout 3 pictures on Patrick’s HD LCD he took for me:
