    IMO I think the xtravision one is the best. Thats the one I got and am happy with it.
    I checked in game, HMV, argos, gamestop, havery norman etc.... and for the premium its €279 the bundles are 1 game its 310 and 2 its 330.
    Not great considering xtra is giving a premium and four games, so you are getting 4 games for a fiver each and rental vouchers to boot. Is the offer still on though?

    I was in Gamestop (Henry St.) during lunch. They still have their Premium for €259. This has 1 (maybe 2, I wasn't paying attention) game(s), extra wireless controller and and Eircom modem for some reason.

    Ah right. They didn't have that on the sign. Crap deal so (unless you do actually want broadband with Eircom)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie

    In the latest Xtravision magazine the 360 Pro is advertised for e279.99. Another price drop.

    probably just the console on its own. i inquired about any other deals in xtra-vision earlier, they are doing 299 premium with halo3 and gta4 but it seems they are keeping the 4 games deal as well. no deals on the arcade in xtra-vision. im hoping GAME will do a gta arcade pack deal for 220, they are already doing it with 1 game from a selection of 4decent games. then again, a 399 ps3+gta pack would be nice too, GAME will be doing that one for 440. decisions, decisions.......

    e299 Pro bundle with Halo3 and GTAIV? Just those two games?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,121 ✭✭✭✭Jimmy Bottlehead


    Think GAMESTOP are doing a deal, where it's €410 for a 360 Elite, with two games and two controllers. The games are from a good selection too, GTA4 included!!

    so i was told by staff in the mccurtain street branch. its still a good deal when you consider its 20 euro for 2 big games but yea, the 4 games deal is still best.

    Just got my xbox 360 (premium i think, the one after the arcade) today. €299 in xtra vision with 4 games(halo 3, gears of war, pgr4 and some crappy blue dragon game which ill try and trade in gamestop) Pretty good deal if you ask me.

    Still have to get pro evo tho. They didnt have it in stock :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,992 ✭✭✭✭Snake Plisken


    isn't the Argos deal decent enough, not too pushed on the games as I have them already (Forza & Viva Pinata) but 249 for a premium console is a decent price and if you can get 10 or 20 euros on trading in the games it brings the price down further, the only thing I would be worried about is getting the a cosole with HDMI, I already have a 360 but its freezing
