I got a new 360 Elite in HMW with Fifa 10 and Halo ODST for €239 two weeks ago. Not sure if they are still running the offer but I found them to be the cheapest of all the high street shops that I went to.

EDIT: Their UK website (dont have an Irish one) are still offering the bundle for £200. Thats just under €225. Might be worth taking a trip to Newry.

Went into HMV at lunch time on Grafton Street. The orginal offer (FIFA + Halo fro €240) is still there, but now they have and even better one!

Xbox Elite + Fifa 10 + Forza 3 for €225. The games alone would have a trade in value of close to €60.

Got a preowned 20GB 360 for 109 euro today in Game with Sega Superstar Tennis and Halo 3 ODST - Halo alone would cost 44.99. Still have the full warranty too, so for 110 euro it's a damn good deal. When I opened the box the 360 looked pristine, the controller still had factory stickers on it and the instructions inside the battery compartment, and the complementary batteries in green wrap were even there - looks like this console was literally unused...
