Just a quick question, been offered a Xbox360 premium bundled with Pro Evo 6 at £200. Question is, do I go for it? I've wanted an elite since it was announced but at this price surely I'd be mad to pass it?

Your thoughts please! Thanks :)
 
yes, it is worth it.

The question you have to ask yourself is why do you want an elite?

do you HAVE to have it in black?
do you really need 120 Gb hard drive?
do you really need HDMI?

if the answer to thiose questions is no then get the premium.

1) I would like it in black

2) I'm not sure if I need 120gb? :o

3) I'm not sure if I need HDMI as I can't compare the connections :o

:(
 
well if you really need it in black then spray paint it :D
there are several black faceplates or complete body kits around.

you probably dont need 120Gb, and if you do it'll be a while away, you can buy the drives serperately so you can always upgrade.
 
I would say now is a good time to get one
Just don't do what i did and buy a core you will only have to end up forking out for a hard drive wireless control pad and a network lead :D

Bought mine last friday pre owned for £129 not bad :D
 
If its a bargain your after prices are only going to depreciate more when the elite is released. If you want one to play right now buy it by all means!


Are we seeing the sub £100 cores on ebay yet?

I'd wait for the hardware redesign personally.

Is it worth waiting how ever long for it to come out or risk the old design knowing you may possibly be without it for a couple of weeks somewhere down the road? I know which I'd choose! :)

3 weeks, several hours on the phone to Bangalore and a trip to the UPS depot so far for me. Still waiting for it back.

It's a great console, but I wouldn't want to go through all this hassle again.

Isn't that just for the 3 lights?

Aye, I know it can be a hard descision.

I've had my 360 18+ months and it's never failed and I've known people who've had all manner of problems in the same period.

The mb changes (revision) is to combat the RROD, they've not made any changes to the rest so in effect it doesn't really matter re. waiting and you get your warranty anyway and they offer to fix it for c£60 out of warranty.
