Mass Effect 2 will have two disks that will have to be swapped during gameplay. I don't feel like googling at the moment for others. I'm sure as time goes on, there will be more and more.

Forza 3, but once you install disk 2, you don't need it anymore

Is it worth getting a 3 yr warranty for 50.00? Usually i wouldn't even think about it but i recall hearing about some light of doom or some shit that rendered the machine useless...
All new systems come with a 3-year warranty that covers the 3RROD.

So I have really appreciated all the input. I am leaning toward the 360. Know which 360?

Let me tell you my personal logistics in out home. I have an office which has Comcast with the hard wired highspeed internet and wireless router for our laptops. The family room had the big LED Samsung no hard wired internet connection but the DVR box and cable only. Upstairs in our game room we have cable interconnect for a TV that has no HDMI connection. It's a HD 4x3 HD.

Should I get Comcast to drop in a fast internet line in the upstairs game room to hook up the 360? I don't like pairing up wireless to these components. Never did get internet hooked up to Samsung TV through Wireless ever since i bought the LED TV. Your thoughts?

You are going to want to hook the 360 up to your LED Sammy for the ultimate playing experience. I would run a line if you do not want wireless components (probably cheaper even since that POS xbox dongle is ~$100) and split it with a hub to your TV and xbox, so you get the best features on both.

SoCal is an unknown quantity at this point
Plug a line into your XBox, and you won't have to deal with that ugly wireless hookup. I would also go with the Elite. I believe that it has either 60 or a 120GB HD.

If you plug the line directly into the xbox can it be used as my wifi for my pad, or is that asking too much from microsoft?

Not possible, the XBOX is not equipped with wifi anyway.
