Awesome! I'm getting a free 512MB Memory Card, Sweet! Well I guess something good comes out of me holding onto my old Core 360 for no reason (I upgraded to a 360 Elite earlier this year, 120GB!!!) and I already had a 20gb hd for the Core and an old 64MB memory card as well, hahaha! The hd is a good deal, but since I already have the 120gb and 20gb hd's I really don't need it.

The only bad thing is that I had to have it shipped to my home address in California. I guess I'll have to have my parents send it to me when they send me another package next time.

 

edit: oh yeah it was strange for some reason the page got hung-up in Firefox, but when I tried it again using an IE tab in Firefox, it worked alright.

Now the question is wether MSFT is going to stop shipping the Arcade or keep doing this forever.

It really doesn't make a lot of sense to keep shipping a SKU with no HDD and then have people go through this kind of process...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

My guess is that this would be a limited time offer. Once the 20GB HDDs are gone, they will likely just include 512mb memory card in the Arcade package.



change it to the 512mb in the arcade, and keep the 20gb program for a while, imho.
