    Well, for what it's worth:

    It doesn't say whether it's got a HDD or not, I assume "Built in" just means the games are in the box and it's actually and arcade/core console - 129.99

    You then get the following for a tenner:
    Forza motorsport 2 - one of the best racers about.
    Uno - very popular.
    Table Tennis - great game, really detailed, but solid as ****
    Viva Pinata - one for the ladies ;)
    Pro Evolution Soccer 6 - not the best pro evo on the console, but well playable.
    Sonic the Hedgehog - pretty slick
    Wireless controller
    12 Months Xbox live membership (GOLD) - worth £25-30
    Mass Effect - very highly regarded, still worth £15-20, probably.
    Assassin’s Greed - first time, today, this is being seen for £10 - but a great game (if a little less good than people were expecting).

    It just seems like a great bargain.
  • I don't trust this console. The xbox 360 arcade comes with 5 built in games, but not those specified here, it looks like a reconditioned box to me, as the built in games surely would be the same no matter where you buy it, seems odd that with every other supplier, you get UNO, Pac-Man Championship Edition, Feeding Frenzy, Luxor 2 and Boom Boom Rocket.

    I have no idea.

    I don't actually need one so did not really look into the specs.
    I immediately thought of here once I opened the email.
    I hope some of you that are after these manage to get one & that you feel that it's a real bargain.
    I love Bargain Crazy, I've had some great Bargains from them over the years.
    Oh & just remembered - Quidco 3%

    Yes, normally the "built in" games are XBLA titles.

    The ones bundled with this are "full" games...

    I don't think Bargain Crazy sell reconditioned goods.
    I'll look into the T & C's & get back. All the things I've had have all been brand new.
