Wow... can people really not stop calling it a $99 Xbox 360? It is in no way shape or form a $99 Xbox. It is a $199 Xbox Arcade with a gift card that has to be used on other products and can not be put towards the purchase of the Arcade itself. If you want to be technical it's basically a $200 Pro (using the gift card to buy the 60GB upgrade pack).

So from here on out can we please accept anyone calling this a $99 Xbox 360 as trolling, since after constant explanation that is all they are doing now?

I agree night. My cousin bought this deal and was upset when she found out how small the ahrd drive was. I laughed and said she should have been more aware. In my mind, the Arcade is a joke SKU for MS to sell, no serious, or semi serious gamer could consider it useful with such a small hard drive.

 

Is this all just an effort by MS to get rid of all the Arcade units? Or is this something that Walmart did on their own?

Its just a Walmart deal on their own. They are spreading out the Black Friday deals all month rather than just that one day.

If she uses the $100 gift card on the 60GB starter pack that would basically make it a $200 Pro (which if still available anywhere sells for $250) so that'd be a decent deal, too.

Will they be doing any more Black Friday deals?
