Any XBOX 360 Offers

HI All,

I have a standard XBOX but as games are becoming harder to get, and no longer being produced for the older system, I think it is time to upgrade and get a 360.
My 19 month old daughter loves playing it too, and our 2 day old daughter will no doubt be the same given half the chance.

Cheers
Andy

    it might be worth going down to your local hmv coz they sometimes have offers that arent on their site. when they had the pro with halo3 and need for speed for £269 on the site it was only £250 in my local store. i didnt fancy need for speed and asked if i could change it. they said yes. so i got mine with halo3 and call of duty 4. i got mine before xmas so the offers will have changed since then but as i said its worth having a look.

    Microsoft just recently slashed the prices of the 360 so you're going to be unlikely to find much of a bargain other than maybe the differences in the bundled games.

    Buy the premium, not the core or arcade. It's worth the extra.

    Littlewoods do an Xbox Elite for just over 210 quid using a 20% off code.

    Did this and got mine on Saturday, no problem with using the code yet.

    thanks. yeah, they have reduced the price so it might be worth saying the price i mentioned were before the price cut. i am sure despite the cut that hmv will still have some good bundles. i just wish i could remember some coz i was looking at them only last week.

    I had a look on the Littlewoods web site and they look extortionate.
    Think I'll try my local Game tomorrow.....

    use a code posted here that gets you 20% off think is xx212
  • I think £159 is the start price for the core now, I heard on the radio that it's just been reduced.

    i had a quick look in hmv today and the offers i can remember were a pro console with fifa street 3 and lost odyssey for £220 and a pro console with assassins creed for £205 i think. i think a pro with assassins creed was even less than that in woolworths come to think of it.
