They give out $50 extra bump for any console. So Xbox actually is $75 TIV.

Xbox must come with 1 controller. additional controller is $15 TIV. Funny how DS Lite worth $40 + extra $50 bump which make DS Lite worth more than Xbox in trade in.

US is giving away $100 for console, but they do not bump $8 games to $25 for you. I'd rather do it here.

I upgraded my 360 Arcade Jasper (still under warranty) with 7 games ($60~70) gathered from Rogers Video and ~$50 on my edge card to slim last Saturday. IT IS NICE.

anyone buy xbox live subscriptions from ebay? wondering if they're legit, most sellers seem to have positive feedback but not sure if that is of any significance to whether its legit or not.

that's how i got my sub before

his seller rating was 99.9 and i clicked on his previous buyers and they seemed like legit users (not fake accounts set up) so i took the chance. he gave me the option to wait and he'll ship it out or to just email the code over.

nah...this was a few years ago.

there are a lot of resellers on ebay. just do your research and make sure their feedback is legit (from real users) and recent and you should be good to go

I suggest buying Limbo from the Live Arcade. Pretty cool little puzzle game.

still pretty hot while running games, about as hot as my ps3 slim 40/45nm.

DVD reading is improved, not as loud. Game installed to HD makes it silent except the starting up.

I still think it's not designed to stand up. the vent on the side (right on top of the CPU) of the case makes it prefect for heat to come out if it's horizontally placed.

I'm somewhat tempted to get one today given the $199 - $50 online or $50 GC in store for the 4gb. Just debating if it's worth it, but I don't think I will given how much I actually game.

there's a loop hole there. Online order with ISPU.

I placed my order at $149. if they give me the GC in-store, I will keep it. If not, I will just return it.
perfect gift for family members as Christmas is coming.

My latest Live subscription was bought off eBay. I can't find the ad anymore since it was from a merchant, but the seller's email is eric_zieg@yahoo.com.

You could probably email him and see if he still has any 12 month codes left. He'll just ask you for your PayPal email, then he will request payment for it (38.99USD). After you pay him, he'll email you the code.

Anyone know if the older 250gb hard drive will fit on the new black 360??

Also can the RROD be caused by a hard drive?

I have seen some people pry out the HDD from the old xbox and put it into the new slim and it works. You might want to try it out too.

Bringing this thread back from the dead lol. Just started playing my xbox again after a long absence. Played the Halo Anniversary edition and now Im into gaming again. Started trying out Arcade demos and for the heck of it I tried Splinter Cell Conviction and I love it. Time to go find it in the discount bin. And probably gonna pickup Gears 3 on boxing day.

Got nothing better to do this winter. Motorcycle is put away, and snowboarding has become too expensive.

For everyone here with the new slim xbox, just wondering what colour is yours? I got mine a year ago and its glossy black, my buddy just got his and its matte black. I thought only the 4gb came in matte black

I bought a 250gb last month and it's matte black. Pretty sure all the new pros are now
