    Thats an alright deal.I know that microsoft are now supposed to be giving forza and viva pinata with every console.A couple of weeks ago in game i got the console, the two games mentioned above and an extra wireless for 360euro.Apparently until christmas eve that bundle is only 330euro.Thats an excellent deal and if you shop around i'd say you'd get an two decent games for the ninety euro leftover.Another reason to go to game is that their stock turnover is fairly high so you're almost certain to get one with the new quieter "falcon" cpu

    Kind of relevant to this thread, but not sure if anyone will be able to help really. I've decided i want a 360, just wondering if i should get it in game before xmas for €330, or wait until after in the hope of sales/deals etc.

    Got the Game deal, 360, extra controller, Forza and Viva, then bought Assain Creek for 50quid in virgin. total cost 380, cant go wrong with that.

    I'm like that too. Want an Xbox but not necessarily for Xmas so I might wait till the new year and see if there are any deals going then. Is there a price drop rumoured for any time soon?

    kinda hoping there is, but will it come down to circa €250 for the premium console. Thats valuing bundled items (Forza 2 + Viva pinata + extra controller) at €80 total.

    I'm thinking it might not drop that much directly after xmas, so very tempted to go get it this weekend.

    Another thing i'm thinking, maybe game are selling off older (non hdmi) consoles on the cheap, only to revert to normal prices when they are all gone. Or make the last few quick bucks before they have to drop prices in sales. Tricky decision alright! anyone in the know about price drop plans?
