    Have a 360 use for FIFA and little else. The fifa 16 bundles on xbox one new are going for €260. Casual gamer so 500g is plenty.

    Do you think its worth waiting paying extra for S? Can the one drop any lower?

    If you have a 4K/HDR tv, then seriously look at the Xbox One S. If not, then they're clearing out stock of the old Xbox Ones now, so there are some great deals going on those now.

    Also, I'd feel remiss if I didn't point you towards EA Access. It's a subscription service for EA games, generally the latest FIFA comes out for free in the EA Access Vault for free about 8 months or so after launch.

    Useful to know but the FIFA bundle is cheaper than standalone.

    This all day long- even if you would prefer to buy FIFA etc at launch you get 10% off with an EA sub. Plus all the free games.

    Welcome! If you're looking for good deals on Xbox Live gold, ask in here, you'll get four few games a month for your subscription, plus the ability to play online. If you're then looking for other boardsies to play against, post your tag in here, then add anyone FIFA related.

    EA Access is savage value.
