Gaming bargains thread

Demoted 31693 Views 540 Posts Locked Xbox Software
Thought it would be good to have a thread where people can post god deals people see at shops or online in regards to X360 hardware/software.

Maybe if this gains enough popularity we can get a sticky for it so this thread doesn't fall into the depths of clutter!

The best gaming bargain I have seen currently is the pre-order for Street Fighter IV from CDWOW at $61.95 with free delivery, I imagine this game will be $100 in shop here on release, maybe $80 at JB??

Here is the link here:
www.cdwow.com.au/

Also as mentioned by jp2590 in another thread CDWOW have halo for $39.95.

i bought my elite 3 days before the slim was released



Surely they would have let you take your console back then?! Seems a bit harsh to me.
Is this a good buy, or could I do better???

This is probably a better option, but its your money.

Thanks though. :)

I think all the places around are having sales for the 120gb and 250gb models of ps3 and are going real cheap, you could get one for about $350 plus a game, imo and its a better option to go for a ps3 due to blu ray player and exclusives.

But as I said its your money and everyone likes there own thing.

That's pretty good Tia.. Are you going to have the box next to your router? If not you need to get a wireless xbox dongle thing.. They are about $100 or more. :)

360 games are generally cheaper though and the library is double the ps3s library.. I love my ps3 but..... ^_^

Well 600 to 400 but I think they say quality over quantity dont they?!

And the AAA tittles released should be more the number you look into not overall tittles cause anyone can release shitty games, look at 95% of wii games. lol
That's why I have one of each console.. Well once I get another 360 I will.. Then I can choose what to buy ^_^
Lol, do I sense a fanboy? Haven't had one of them in the mix for a while.

Save the thread for bargains please ;)
I am also debating on whether to get a second PS3 or a 360. We mainly want it for the media playing capabilities in another room. So whichever I see for a great price first I will probably grab since I can see benefits both ways.

Yeah, I'm going to be moving soonish so I don't know what the set up will be, but I have the cable already to set up LAN and if it becomes a pain, then I can get the dongle.
Yep go for it.. Having a 360 and wii is a great combo ^_^
Having them all is my aim - and a massive television.

:P
i have them all, and i recently bought a 42 inch sexy tv :D

Star Wars unleashed - ulitmate sith edition $49 at JB
xbox + ps3
I went to Game on Friday they had buy one get one free, on used and new games. I see Stuntman and Mirrors Edge 20 bucks each, I might go down next week see what else is there. They had Cod 4 and Cod WaW 100 bucks each, bit of a rip. I dont know if it's all the store either coz the one I went to was shutting down.

Just a heads up :)
its a fathers day special
