[xav187]

GAME is selling the Xbox 360 Pro Bundles for $499 at the moment. It also includes Forza 2 and Viva Pinata.

Since I'm on the street teams, let me know when you get one, and I can send you a copy of one of:

• Forza 2 Limited Edition
• Gears of War Limited Edition
• Halo 3 Limited Edition

Hey Stazi, don't know if this was limited or anything but any possibly of getting in on this as well would be awesome.

ps GAME as in www.game.com.au ? where is location in Sydney?

Cheers

xav - you can check out game's locations in Sydney by clicking the stores link on the site. You could also get any other chain to price match GAME's prices. I'll PM you the instructions

Anyone received their games yet? Just curious to know which ones you get.

 

[stazi]

A mate of mine got Viva Pinata: Party Animals and Mass Effect. Others I know have gotten other random mixes. It's usually a good game like PGR4/Halo/mass effect, combined with a pretty average game.

Apparently they ran out of games a few days ago, and are waiting to get more tomorrow

I totally want to play viva pinata.

I'm such a fag.

 

[stazi]

it is a truly amazing game. honestly.

 

[stazi]

btw everyone should really send in the required info by the 25th.

sexy time.

I wish I was more impulsive, I'd probably buy a console.

 

[chicky_pie]

[stazi]

Thanks a fuck tonne champ

just to clarify: asylum ended up getting halo 3 + mass effect

 

[JMH81]

BIG thanks to Stazi!

Quick heads up for anyone looking to buy a 360, GAME has a trade-in deal going (in NSW, but possibly in other states as well) where you trade in a PS2 + 10 games and you can get a 360 Pro + VP + Forza 2 for $99. (valid until 24/12/07)

Exclusion list here:
http://www.game.com.au/page.aspx?docid=29

What a lot of people have done is go over to EB, buy a used PS2 for $89, buy some used games that are not on the exclusion list (with the buy 2 get one free deal) and then head over to GAME and trade them in (OCAU thread)

I was wondering stazi, if I do this, would I still be eligible for the free games?

 

[stazi]

Unfortunately you won't be. Best I could do is get you two codes for crappy Xbox Live Arcade Games.

 

[AsyLum]

For the effort & price, you'd be close to the point of just getting your own XBOX without trading in wouldn't you ?

 

[stazi]

haha yeah, especially if you're getting 2 new games from this offer with it.

Not really. If you do the whole PS2 thing, a used PS2 goes for $89 at EB, they've got a buy 2 get 1 free deal on pre-owneds, and if you fetch some $20 games that comes to about $140, so that would be around $230 for the PS2 combo.

Add $99 for the 360, and voila - brand new 360 + Viva Pinata + Forza 2 for
$330

Hmm, so stazi, does your offer still stand for outright purchases (ie. 360 for $499) or is it finished?

 

[stazi]

only for outright purchases (i.e. $499).

 

[Gavvvvvin]

what about us $399'ers?

 

[stazi]

actually, should be fine for people who get the Arcade consoles. Shoot me an email with the pics. If you can get it to me in the next 15 mins I'll get it sent out today (i hope)
