Xbox elite, now £199

So yeah, the elite seems to now be 200 quid..Obviously because of Killzone?

Yep i just had a email saying that do you think this is official price drop because of ps3 price drop rumour.

C64 · 27 Feb 2009 at 19:41

£179 it's available for.

ubern00b · 27 Feb 2009 at 19:58

£150 with a discount code. Speculation is stores are trying to clear stock for the Jasper Elites.

Reckon that myself.

but surely they won't put the price back up ? If its just the retailers putting the price down then why would they care about jasper chipsets ?

Price drop is just a store time limit price drop. It's not because of KZ 2.

It's a sorry state of affairs when retailers and consumers have to worry about which revision of a chipset is being used :/

If I could find one for 150 pounds I would buy it , don't care about the chipset but want a black one for downstairs

£150 for a 360 Elite or £300 for a PS3

You could buy 2 for the price of a PS3, one spare incase the first one breaks.

or both as many of us have.

sold my 360 long ago when i have not much use for it. today bought one after seeing the offer. thinking of it, not sure why i buy it as i can't think of any games that I really wanted to play on 360. I'll probably get GOW2 and sell it on when I finish the game.

C64 · 27 Feb 2009 at 23:41

I find the opposite there's really not much going on with p games tonnes of great xbox games to play though and coming.

Same, bought 8 PS3 games I wanted since I got it on release day and it has dried up a lot since...usually buy them on the 360 if they are multiformat.

he meant £179 but £150 with the discount code anyway I wouldn't touch a non jasper 360 with a barge pole.

I'm waiting for a Jasper Elite, so hopefully the prices won't shoot up again when they're out!

Tempted to pre-order one of those limited edition Red RE:5 Elites (pretty much guaranteed to be Jaspers).. but Red? eww

(cba to get a black case either, as most of them look cheap and nasty, or don't work with the HDMI models)

McManicMan · 28 Feb 2009 at 07:58

they will be giving them away with cornflakes next
