Play have dropped the price of the 360 Premium to the magic £199 mark. I'm seriously tempted now.

Hmmmmmmm.

How much would I get for an original xbox with a shitload of games?

halo 1, halo 2 (plus expansion), black, sims, mafia, ninja gaiden, sensible soccer, timesplitters 2, full spectrum warrior, GTA 3 + 4 double pack, Burnout 3, red dead revolver, crimson skies, heroes of the pacific plus a few others and 4 controllers?

Anyone got a rough figure?

[pastperfect]

probably around £100-£120 with all the games and controllers.

Gah, Chris, you didn't have to post that, I'm tempted as well

[Chris]

I don't understand how they can do this? The xbox arcade is coming out at the same price? The only thing I can think of is they're clearing stock before they get in the premium consoles with HDMI, as I don't have an HD telly this isn't a problem for me.

I'm getting a bit tempted as well. Are a lot of faulty Xboxs' still being sold or have they sorted that problem out now?

They should be sorted. But microsoft have extended the warranty anyway and if you do buy one that suffers the red ring of death, then I reckon by that point the HDMI ones which run cooler and have 65nm chips in them should be out. So you'll get a better console than the one that broke

Unless it's actually a fault with your hard drive... then they'll just claim it's not under the warranty...

Don't they swap them if you get the RRoD?

[Tam o' Shantie]

holy shit that's relatively cheap. doesnt this one have hd out as well though? are there actually any good games for the xbox 360 or is it just boring war sims and football games?
