Don't know how long it'll last (all over slickdeals and fatwallet already), but Outpost. com has a great bundle. http://shop4.outpost.com/product/5017865 360 Premium system Dead Rising Saints Row Test Drive Unlimited $360 Keep in mind, the premium itself is regularly 400, and Dead Rising and Saints Row are $60 games. Nice bundle.
thx dude!!! i was looking for a 360 recently. Just ordered one. Kinda sucks that Texas residents have to pay sales tax, but deal is still great though.
Sounds like a great deal. I do have a question regarding the 360. i recently bought some games in Hong Kong because they cost less than have of what they cost in the US. But I cannot play them because of the regional rules of XBOX. Does anyone know how I could get these games to work?
You'd probably have to mod/hack the system. I'm not all that familiar with how that is done on the 360 since it is somewhat new (plus I don't really care about that stuff). They really don't want people to be playing games from one region on a console from another region, so I'm guessing it won't be THAT easy (as in, no modding/hacking/whatever). Maybe someone else knows more. There are some region-free games though, which I guess you could check out. They'll play on any 360. This is an awesome deal, probably the best one I've seen for the 360 when you consider the games and how good they are. Dead Rising has a 85 from Metacritic, while both Saints Row and TDU have a 82.
The game has to be a Xbox360 game. If it is not you must download the update from online and update your Xbox360. The list of regular Xbox games you can play on your Xbox360 are right here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/backwardcompatibilitygameslist.htm To download the update and put it on your 360, go here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/backwardscompatibility.htm Hope this helps you out..
My friend stayed on my couch for a month and when my Grampa died and I had to go to Boston for his funeral, he bought me a premium 360 w/ dead rising, saints row, ncaa 2007 and 2 controllers. That my friends, is friendship. If any of you went to UT from 02-06, you'd remember his comic strip in the Daily Texan, Squirrels. Maybe you saw his band, Mumblebee. The man is gifted.
deal is dead...i tried to buy it, outpost.com never charged me, so i called and they said its over... but they also told me to check back friday for "an equally good or better" deal so heads up you non-360ers, fridays your chance
Hopefully the 360 premium will drop to 300, but I really want a PS3, price will be the biggest concern for me, though.
I'm reading online that some people have called in and found out that none of the orders will be placed, and that this was a mistake on the site. That sucks (if true). There will be a "better deal" up later in the week though (as mentioned). FWIW, I know Amazon is doing a deal that let's you get a game free with your Xbox 360: http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.ht.../002-9849031-3824857?ie=UTF8&docId=1000010981 They were originally offering Gears of War and Viva Pinata instead of those games, but by the time I thought about posting it, I think the deal was already dead.
I got the X-Box for a really good deal, too. It was an awesome system until it got jacked last night out of my living room.
Man, I got an xbox 360, some games, and a crapload of DVD's free last night. Some idiot left his windows unlocked.
