Edit: The HD is refurbished, but it's still a great deal and only core/arcade owners are eligible

That's pretty cool.

Free 512mb memory card. But you still can't enjoy "Primetime"

The 20 gigs for 20 bucks is a better deal than before, but still pretty sucky.



the 20gb deal has to be a steal. (relatively speaking, of course)




today i saw a 20gig HD @ 99.99. at 20 bucks, this would make buying an arcade a sane purchase.



The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the best Zelda title ever made.

"The Person Who Got the Closest to Winning the 1st VGC VC Giveaway, but still lost"

$20 for a 20g HD, that's an awesome deal, especially in comparison to what they used to charge!

so.... correct me if i'm wrong here.. Microsoft is giving away free 512MB memory? heck, where do I sign up?

ROFLOL...that shut-up some of the haterz...$20 for a 20GB HDD...if you want to get a $199 arcade and spend $20 on the HDD...GREAT...if you want to spend $299 and get he 60GB..GREAT...or go for the Elite...GREAT. As a C-O-N-S-U-M-E-R...you have a choice! Personally, I think everybody should go with the elite, but than, I'm a gamer.

The page where you sign up for the free 512mb memory card is under heavy load and refuses to load.

You have to own a Core/Arcade to even be eligible though. It scans your serial number.



Wow that's a good deal, no reason not to buy an arcade if you only playing games on it!

if anything, it's a slap-in-the-face of everyone who bought Microsoft's crap about their HDD 'advantage' and paid $100 more to get the Pro/Premium edition.


As an Arcade owner myself, it's great for me. This is just another reason why Microsoft failed at planning everything from the start.

 

P.S. I plan to get a 512mb myself, if they want to charge me shipping, I will tell them to go consumate themselves.
