Xbox 360 Deals

[Mr Will]

I've been thinking about getting an Xbox 360 for a while now and saw yesterday that game have a deal on:

xbox 360 premium
extra wireless controller
forza 2
viva pinata
all for £229.99

Does anyone know of any better deals than this? it seems cheap, but i haven't shopped around much recently. Also does anyone know anywhere doing a pack for a similar price but with better games. Forza 2 is a must have, but i'm not really interested in viva pinata.

woolworths, fifa 08, forza, simpsons and viva punani for £280... dunno bout the controller

I've seen the same deal as you already found but it had Need for speed Prostreet and it was £249.99. I believe it was Game or Gamestation.

What ever you do pick up Call of Duty 4 as well.

I think they are bundled together. Game station do a similar deal with an additional game for 250 squid. You can probably do better buying it online but I wanted to be sure to get it for Xmas and also wanted to check the PSU was 175W. I think this is probably the best high street deal.

COD4 is half price at gamestation this week. Only £24.99 atm.

What difference does the 175w PSU make? i didn't bother to check, so is it anything important?!

Well i've bought it anyway, so should be joining in with a few of the xbox live sessions over christmas

"All you need to do is look at the UPC symbol and see the 175W, which is the wattage for the newer power supply. This confirms that a Falcon chip is inside and not the Zephyr, which is an older model.

The Falcon chipped models have a much less chance of failing due to aluminum heat sinks and uses much less power so will be a lot quieter."

Dont bother with the elite - unnecessary.

Xbox360 premium 2 is the one to get.
