Games Consoles round-up

[Deleted User]

Desperate for a xbox 360 250Gb console with Kinect and Xbox live (altho was happy to buy live seperately to get a reasonable deal).

Amazon did have kinect bundle offer on until late this week including Xbox live (12 month subscription) free for £269.99 (and u could buy Battlefield or Gears of War 3 games for £15 extra). Watched this deal and just hoped it would still be on when I could pay for it lol.

Nope, the deal was taken off and the bundle changed.., cut price games changed (to ones my son didn't want), and u had to pay £10 for the same xbox live subscription.., totalling 289.99.

Then yesterday they put the same bundle up to £289.99.., meaning I'd have to pay £299.99 to include the xbox live subscription.

I've now found the same console, without the game I wanted but including 12 months xbox live subscription, and Kinect Adventures and Kinect Sports for £279.99 at Currys. I used TopCashback so if their offer holds true, collecting the console will mean I get 10.1% cashback.

So I am getting the Xbox 360 Console (250Gb) with Kinect Sensor, Kinect Adventures, Kinect Sports and 12 months Live Gold membership for £279.99.., a voucher from Currys for £10, plus maybe £20 plus cashback all for £20 cheaper than Amazon which I don't think includes Kinect Sports. http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/microsoft-xbox-360-console-250gb-bundle-with-kinect-sensor-kinect-adventures-kinect-sports-12-month-live-gold-membership-12041317-pdt.html

So although I normally swear by Amazon (altho I always do price check them) and avoid Currys and Dixons .., I've now gone to this group twice for Xmas presents (bought a refurbished HDMI 26 inch LCD TV for £149.99 last week from Dixons). Now if only I had a hat to eat lol.
