    Yes thats what I thought although I gather the xbox can play divx/xvid

    It can't play DixX/XVid "out of the box", but can be easily modified (via software) to do this. Great deal if you can find one for £20!

    Game in Belfast have about 6 of them. I went in and they were all £29.99 - I told a floor guy that I'd heard they were £20, he knew nothing. I picked up a clear one anyway and took it to the till. Mentioned the £20 thing again and the guy knew nothing, and was poking about in a folder for a code to type into the till, when he seemed to discover that they were actually £19.98, and heard him say to his colleague that it must've happened overnight. So if you see them in stock, take them to the till and ask! Rubbish selection of XBox games though.
    GameCubes are only £15 BTW, surely that's pretty cheap?

    I went to the Game in Craigavon shopping centre and they had one left. I asked the SA what price it was and he said 19.98. When he scaned it in it came to 10 - he would not sell it to me for that price, instead he called over another SA and the two of them spent over 10 mins trying to get to change to 19.98 and they got it done in the end.:(

    Make sure you get them to scan them (staff are guessing the price as it was £29), I called up and confirmed £20 in Bournemouth (they have loads btw (whole pallet)).
    When I went in the shop staff thought it was £29 but manager confirmed again it was £20 and they scanned a barcode from a folder and it came up £19.98.
    My one came with advanced scart and dvd remote whatever they are

    How to get make a bargain even better :money: You lucky man. The advanced scart lead will have an optical output from it, so that you can get 5.1 surround sound if connected to an AV receiver/amp.

    Curry's/PCWorld still have some Mad Catz xbox stuff kicking around. I just bought a Scart lead with an optical out, and check this out...it came with a 1.5 meter optical cable! Price? 47p:j
