Just a forewarning all prices are in Australian dollars (AUD)

With Christmas just around the corner, and Microsoft out on the prowl, the prices of XBOX 360s have been slashed!

Quote:

MICROSOFT has cut the price of its Xbox 360 consoles in the lead up to Christmas, making the average unit the same price as the Nintendo Wii.

It's been about a week since the news release, but I haven't been the most active member (due mostly to my acquisition of my 360).

Anyway, prices are now pretty much as follows...Arcade - $299, Pro - $399 and Elite $549. So for those who are thinking of getting a 360, now's the time to get it imo.
Also EB has an offer of 360 holiday bundle (unit + Kung-fu Panda game + Lego Indiana Jones game) and Assassin's Creed for just $399.

Arcade was 349 before, so no not a bit too high. You can't compare EBay to retail stores.

Not my fault you didn't see the "Just a forewarning all prices are in Australian dollars (AUD)" at the very start of the thread. =p
