Probably the best console deal ever?

As someone who is currently in the market for a next gen console (read: 360), I have been monitoring all the usual shops and sites for the best deal.

Bearing in mind that the Elite is not scheduled until maybe october, I decided that I would buy a 360 sooner rather than later.

Today I believe my search is over.

Play.com has just posted a new console bundle that could be the greatest ever.

For £289 delivered you get:

Xbox 360 Premium
Extra Wireless Controller (making 2)
Gears of War
Crackdown
PGR3
Live Arcade Pack

Full details can be found by clicking the link at the bottom of this blog post

I am checking the shops tomorrow before buying but I think this offer is too good to pass over. Just to put this in prospective, a PS3 with 3 games and an extra controller would be over £500.

If anyone knows of any other great offers at the moment please let me know!

thats a pretty good deal.

In American dollars wouldn't that be like 350 or 400?

Hopefully the premium 360 will go down in price.

But still that almost sounds to good to be true.

close to $600 but thats life i guess ;)

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing2d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster922d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
