game saves too.

headset is only worth it if you want to go online, but even then you dont need it.

wireless controller, again, not needed, but quite useful.

HD is a must though.

you can save them if you buy the Hard Disk, or a Memory pack, which is about £25, and is like a memory card, playstation style

no need for an HD cable though. i dont have an HD TV, so mine is pointless.

hard drive - is a must. saves your games/music and means you can play original xbox games if you wish

wireless controller - pretty cool but if youve got a standard wired one and can happily live with that, then dont waste your money

headset - only good if you plan to go online and abuse people

HD cable - only worth getting if you have a HD (obviously!). can get them for about £15-£20 depending on what connections you got on your HDTV
