    Where's the best value?

    Premium
    • *Special Offer* GameStop - €199.99 - no games, xboxlive silver
    • Symths - €409.99 - no games
    • Komplett - €405+shipping - No games

    Anyone know any others? Play.com don't ship their Xboxs outside of the UK. play-asia.com works out to be less than €400 euro with shipping but they are Japanese/Asian versions of the console

    Thanks, I guess that's the cheapest around

    PC World mistakes aside, anyone able to top the xtravision €399 premium bundle? Or can anyone see it being topped in the near future? Think I'll go for it before I miss out on another good deal!

    The Xtravision deal is pretty good.

    The Gamestop one is only if you trade in a console and 6 games. And the games have to reach a certain value. Its a great offer if you've got a PS2 and six top games lying around. I tried to trade in a batch of my games there a few months ago and got offered a euro for most of them...

    If you're itching for a 360 as much as I am and have as low funds as I do you might think what I was thinking...Gamestop do second hand consoles for 330 I think, premium with two uses games. Trade in a console against that and you'd be getting a 2nd hand premium console and two uses games for 290.

    I was going for that option but early 360's seem to be really unreliable from what I heard, so I think I'll be getting the xtravision offer.

    I think Smyths do do an offer with games. So with the Xtravision one do you get an extra controller?

    No, the extras are the 3 games and the play and charge kit (rechargeable battery and cable so you can easily recharge a wireless controller, and use it wired when it runs out of battery power).

    jesus that's a class deal


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 672 ✭✭✭Pure Cork


    Probably a stupid question, but I like to ask stupid questions...They're usually not stupid.

    Are the older 360 consoles, i.e. one you might get in a deal with Premium console + PES6 (specifically) + GoW + Play and Charge kit for €400, less reliable?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,828 ✭✭✭unklerosco


    Anyone know where to get a cheap cheap 360... Want to get one to use as a media extender.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭n1ck


    Anyone know if that Xtravision deal is going on in the Xtravision in Knocklyon?


    edit - nevermind just rang them and they've had none for about 2 months.
