The equivalent price in the US pre tax would be 297.279 USD at the current exchange rate, though that has been quite variable of late.

A week ago it would have been $312.78]]>Aug 15th 2007 8:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/With just 10 games on my system I'm using 1 GB of save space for game saves alone...not to mention my downloaded content.

WHY is the CORE being sold at all?

Why not just sell the Premium and the Elite?

There is no "rush" for the system anymore...production is keeping up with demand. ]]>Aug 14th 2007 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/
XBOX 360 needs a Web Browser. How is it that my PS3 and my Wii have Web Browsers but not my 360 - made by the very people who control over 70% of the web browser market?

Don't make no damn sense I tell ya !]]>Aug 14th 2007 11:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/Aug 15th 2007 12:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/

I still think the Core is a good idea for Microsoft. If they discontinue they Core system, then that will create a huge gap in terms of pricing. Thanks to the easily removable HD for the 360, Core owners can still upgrade if they choose to in the future.

And I agree with you about the lack of "serious" games for the Wii. Zelda, Red Steel and Super Paper Mario are some of the only titles that interest me at the moment. However, if Nintendo doesn't hurry up, I'll be picking up my 360 and PS3 controller more often for the major titles that will be coming out from Sept. to November.]]>Aug 15th 2007 12:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/People could download hacks, cheats, and other game exploits which would pretty much ruin the multi-player experience for the rest of us. If they do, the next thing you know there would be a trojan virus for consoles, and everyone downloading roms and just ruining the videogame market.]]>Aug 15th 2007 12:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/Aug 15th 2007 12:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/
Don\'t they pose as security threats that can get trojans onto your console?

And you cant download hacks or w/e on the wii or PS3 so it would just be made so you cant download things on the xbox 360 browser.

If you could download things then that would hurt the \'downloadable content\' market. You could go to peoples websites and download videos and homebrew games for the xbox 360 for free without using the market place.

I disagree with you 100%]]>Aug 16th 2007 12:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/

"The rest of us", of course, meaning "us in the United States," rather than "the rest of the world."]]>Aug 15th 2007 3:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/14/xbox-360-price-drops-to-wii-levels-in-australia/
