[Albion Knight]

Someone has posted a picture of next weeks Best Buy ad, showing the rumred $199.99 $299.99 $399.99 price structure.
That's like getting Fable II Limited Edition for free

They're probably doing it for the Christmas season coming, and all the games coming out.
Pwn for Xbox.

Woo-hoo! Another 360 price drop on the way! Hopefully us lot in the UK will be see some discounts on units over here, too. I'm itching to buy an Xbox 360 Elite.

Well whats is really annoying is the fact that in the UK we pay atleast 50% more than Americans to buy games and concoles, well it must feel even worse for Australians as they pay well over the odds for concoles even compared to the UK. Europe pays more than the UK aswell.

With competition like it is I'm guessing that the companies don't make a any more on them. I wonder where the extra costs come in?

I feel bad you must pay so much more for greatness.

Looking at that I can see that its only the Arcade version that is $200 which doesn't contain much at at all, it's the elite or the premium console that you want to look for. I think there's really no point in the Arcade.

And I agree, America is cheaper for everything! Compared to the U.K, it sucks!

Kind of p*sses me off now that I already bought an elite for $505.

Still it's a price drop for all versions and the prices are easy for people to grasp

When did you buy it? They started at $479 and have been at $449 for a while now. If you bought it before then then you got at least a year of gaming for your 100 bucks that's not a bad deal.

Dont worry I bough my 360 premium ( 2 years ago) for £320 which is about $580...and I saved for it with my pocket/dinner money for a whole year (includes money from relitives).

I think the Arcade version doesn`t suck so bad (as the Core did). $200 isn`t too expensive I think.

[deathtomacbeth]

I paid 480 for mine with 2 games.
That was 4 weeks pay!

[Man]

i bought an elite with 2 free games and a 2 year warranty for 5 hundred something. now if only i waited a little longer...meh

Hope more people are able to get it. I just hope that doesn't mean, they are coming out with a new system to soon. 4U
