    Hi, I've just purchased from my local GAME store a
    XBOX 360, 250gb
    HDMI lead
    £40 game (able to purchase new or used games in store for any console up to value of £40)
    2years warranty

    £215

    That sounded good to me, and have been looking about for a while!
    This was a 'managers instore special offer'.
    Your local Game store will more than likely have some type of offer very simalar to this.

    I think that should read 250GB memory not 3250GB.

    Make sure you get the new 360s one as it has built in wifi and is kinect ready. You the dont have to pay out for them later.

    It also dosnt sound like a jumbo taking off when in use.

    Just to add that both new and old Xbox's will connect to Kinect, the older Xbox's will require a seperate power cord though.

    Microsoft aren't daft enough to alienate the 30 million+ worldwide owners of original Xbox's just for the sake of Kinect.

    I managed to pick up the same xbox 360 that you got with a £20 game for £219.98 and I must say that was probably the best deal I could of get and no doubt I will probably have it by Friday as I bought it off the game website itself. I was also able to pick up a few games for it off ebay for a good price so it all worked out well for me. Thanks alot for your help:j

    A new Xbox 4GB with Kinect and Kinect Adventures Game in Game Stores is £249.99 and the 250GB Xbox with Kinect sensor & Kinect Adventures game is £299.99
    I think they have to be pre ordered (for the Kinect) for the 10th Nov, plus extra game points :o)
