Dell selling Xbox 360 Elite bundle for $299 [update] {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Aug 7th 2008 10:48AM NOOOOOO! I've been watching prices and waiting for price drops or new systems to pull the trigger on buying either a 360 or a PS3. I see this article and the Dell offer has already ended :(
For $299 for Elite bundle with Forza and a free HDMI cable that is a pretty darn good deal. I don't think I can make myself buy the 60gb Xbox for the same or more money now.
Mole sez Xbox 360 price cuts coming in September: Arcade for $199 {Engadget}
Aug 1st 2008 5:29PM Ahh makes it even harder for me to choose between getting a 360 and PS3. Although right now you can buy a 360 Elite with Forza and Marvel Ultimate Alliance for $399 from Dell and when they announced the original 20gb price drop Amazon had the Elite for $399 by itself for a while as well.
If September has the 360 60gb for $299 WITH a game or two bundle then I guess I'll bite and finally get a gaming console. Otherwise, PS3 might win me over since it has BluRay (which I don't care too much about now) and included wifi/wireless adapter and online (which is minor but nice).

Kudos - I like it! :)
60GB Xbox 360 shows up for preorder at Circuit City, two days later than Amazon {Engadget}
Jul 20th 2008 3:48PM I wonder if "wireless receiver" means it receives the wireless signals from the wireless controller. If so, dumb.
I seriously doubt they'd include the $80-100 wifi overpriced dongle although that would seal the deal for me and I'll buy this over a PS3 (I own neither and can't choose)
SKU too? Xbox 360 Elite for $400 at Amazon {Joystiq}
Jul 13th 2008 5:46PM Hmm I don't know what I should do - buy the $299 360 on sale right now b/c it's the cheapest or wait for the $350 60gb b/c there is a slight chance they'll also include other items, change the hardware in some way, or stores will bundle a free game, or buy the $399 Elite that's on sale at Amazon right now.
I don't know if the Elite is worth $100 over the 20gb though - the only diff is color, 100 more gigs and a free cable right? That's the price of 2 games I can buy. Hmm.
Then again, if I wait til August maybe PS3 will have a price drop and i'll just buy that instead? I don't like how the 360 doesn't include wifi and it's another $50 for Live and both systems would be another $50-60 for a second controller. Darn I can't decide!!! Probably should have bought the PS3 when they included the $100 gift card (although I don't like how it doesn't have PS2 backwards compatibility). I guess I'll at least wait until E3 is over to see what other announcements there are.
Xbox 360 Pro hits $299 in Target stores {Engadget}
Jul 11th 2008 11:26PM Now I don't know whether to buy the xbox from Target when it's $299 and $25 gift card or to wait for the "new" xbox 60gb or hope that the PS3 is somehow reduced. Can't decide b/w PS3 and xbox.
I shoulda bought the PS3 when it included a $100 gift card but I don't like the fact that the 40gb doesn't include PS2 backwards compatibility.
Sony's CFO says no PlayStation 3 price cut is planned {Engadget}
Jul 11th 2008 10:11AM Yeah I know I don't need more than 20gb just not sure if the new 60gb model will include other changes (like free wi-fi) or now that capacities are getting bigger that all the new games would require hard drive installs (which would start to make the 20gb not usable).
I probably wouldn't pay for Xbox Live - not sure what it really does and would not be an avid online gamer - PS3 is free though which is nice. Just looking to get some good arcadish games like driving games and play. That's why it's a toss-up for me between the PS3 and 360 - I'd probably prefer the PS3 but at $1-200 more money that's 3-4 games that I could buy. Also, I would want PS2 backwards compatibility and the 40gb doesn't have it.
