    Still no hard evidence here. People on here are helpful, especially when they provide links/facts to back it up.

    OK, i have finally managed to get a 360, albeit with a !!!!!! games bundle!! It was bought with game.net, is there anyway i can go into one of their stores and get a refund on the games, but keep the console?

    Not sure if it is possible, but i now have £160 worth of rubbish games!! Hee hee!!

    Yeah I got the games too, but I chose the best ones anyway so shouldn't be too hard to sell on. I doubt Game will refund you but you may be able to exchange them for something else. Why did you get the bundle with the crap games? (or do you mean that the idea of a bundle is crap , not the games?!)

    I got PD0 LE, PGR3, Condemned, COD2. Also got 2% Egg and 3% Quidco cashback totalling about £20 :)

    Think there's also a voucher code around but didn't have time to hunt for it :( EDIT: dang yeah found a £5 voucher and also could have got 2.5% off if I had a reward card, dammit!

    Well I can't provide you with links to documentation that is MS access only, can I? I have provided you with facts, just because I am unable to give you a link doesn't mean it's not true. You only have to look at how Game has just had some more stock come in to see that supplies are being provided as and when they can get them out.

    Fact: MS are still producing as many xboxes as they possible can and shipping them as fast as they can.
    Fact: I can't provide you with a link to prove this because I don't have access to the MS internal systems.
    Fact: I know that what I have said on here is the truth. I posted to be helpful, so that people will know there is still some chance of getting an xbox before Christmas

    I got

    Project Gotham Racing 3 44.99 GBP

    Condemned: Criminal Origins 49.99 GBP

    Call of Duty 2 40.03 GBP

    Perfect Dark Zero - Limited Edition 49.99 GBP

    So i'd probably keep Call of Duty, but what about the rest, total rubbish?
