I'm really tempted myself but can't get past the RRoD...

Edit: For those wanting a hard drive, Argos has the 20gb consoles for £179.48. They also have an offer on where you can buy the console, an extra wireless controller, GTA4 and Halo 3 for £228.91.

Edit 2: I'm told Sainsbury's are selling the core console + Fifa 06 for £129.97 in store.

Think about this...3 year warranty!!!!! :)

Also, if you get a cooling fan and don't leave your xbox 360 on for days at a time, you can be 99% sure you won't get RRoD.

Wow, almost the same price as the GC at launch (£130 with no game)

If I wasn't currently poor I might even consider it for GTAIV, except there are still some Wii games I wasn to buy, and I can happily wait for GTAIV until I can get it and the console for ~current PS2 price (£100) although when (if) I get a new laptop I will probably get GTA:VC which should satisfy me for long enough to wait till the 360 is even cheaper.

Then again if a new laptop is compatible with the GTAIV I might just get that instead (doubtful as I won't be spending much on the laptop)

Well, if those are the list of "3 games"... it's not really saying much. They are hardly 3 AAA titles

Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.
