The basic console + 1 controller + connectors etc is £279.99; this bundle with 2 controllers and 2 games as well is £289.99. I ordered it late on Thu 30/11, I had an email asking me to call them to verify the order on Fri 1/12 (because it's a high-value item), it was despatched on Mon 4/12 and delievered on Tue 5/12.

I also bought Pro-Evo Soccer for £27.99, usual web price £39.99. (There was a bundle including Pro-Evo, but with only one controller, for £279.99 but that's sold out - this way is better value anyway!)

I can't do a link because there are more than 2 underscores in the URL (I don't know why my set-up won't let me do it, it's driving me nuts!) but copy and paste this:

www.play.com/Games/Xbox360/STTS10/3-/3274399/XBox_360_Premium_Console_Entertainment_Bundle/Product.html

this website has various XBox deals if you want to check out different sites

Wow. The h fam ily are all set for an xboxtastic xmas, then.

My partner is desperately awaiting the arrival of a pre-ordered wii, which he claims is for the boys...

this looks great value too

OOOohh Scummy - you got me

I've been hovering around the play.com site trying to decide whether to get it.

Ds has been driving us mad with excitement about how Santa is going to bring him and x-box, but he is only 6yo and I don't think Santa has really got it on his list for him

Arrrggghhh - I would get it for him - but there are so few games suitable for a 6yo - and I'm sure by the time he could use it properly the new generation of consuls will be out!

No - it would not be a good idea - shutting down the play.com site!

Thanks for the links, scummy (you got me too!) (I don't even know what a wii is though)

The h boys will be having the XBoxtastic Christmas - the rest of us won't see them for hours on end - is this a good thing or not I wonder?

soapy, why does DS want one? Has a friend got one?

Just a note (not sure whether it matters or not) but

I don't think you can play on line with the core set. Worth checking if you want to play live.

DP wants a wii

MascaraOHara · 07/12/2006 10:08

oops just looked, it's not the core set anyway. That's a very very good deal!
