Well sure, but even if you buy 1 more game this year you would have made your money back. I have ordered probably 10 games with ECA, 2 turtle beach headsets, a few controllers, and a system. So I have saved quite a bit by spending $20.

At $199.99 minus 10% that's $20. So you'd really get this for nothing and would only be worth it if you buy more beyond the system from Amazon.

3. calling people fan boys is uncalled for and insulting, especially when not true.
4. Before you accuse me of being an MS fanboy, i don't even own an xbox myself and don't intend to buy one. (my brother does though).

1. wrong. this deal isn't that good considering the new slim ps3 and price drop of the xbox360 elite. there will be much better deals than this one.

2. unless you are a fan boy, you are wrong. the PS3 and xbox elite, which are the comparable systems, will be the same price. Personally, I like the ps3 games better, but I'm not going to go and say the xbox has very little games and even few worth playing. and than blowing off blu-ray, rofl. systems cost the same. one has a blu-ray player. you buy and xbox and want a blu-ray player you are dropping much more money. and can't be modded/hacked? wahhhhhh
3. why so much whine?
4. so why the arguement?

4. I dislike the DRM and the need to repurchase outdated PC hardware to play low graphic quality games when I have invested in a quality gaming PC. But I argue because I am honest and I like supporting the truth. In which case the truth is that if you don't mind the DRM, the xbox arcade @ 179$ is a great deal...
Also... netflix is better than blu-ray.

Wrong on every count.
This deal is, in fact good. Please show me where you can get a PS3 for $170-180. Yes, I am well aware the HD is missing, but can you get a PS3 with internal mem for this price? Not even close.
I am not a fanboy. I don't even have an Xbox. Again, the systems in question are NOT the same price. We are not comparing the "Elite" to the "PS3" here, in case you forgot. We are comparing the fact that you can get a $170 "Arcade" to the $300 PS3 which is NOT available for cheaper.
Yet again, for the 3rd time, on your 3rd point... The systems DO NOT cost the same! Not even close! Forget the Elite. We are not talking about it. And yes, modding/hacking matters a lot. I want to be able to keep my originals in perfect shape, while using backups. It is my right even if someone considers it illegal. You might have money to burn, but I do not.
Your argument does not stand. The facts speak for themselves.

I got mine from Dell today. Manufacture date of 6/30/09 so it has 512MB of flash(only 320MB free) and it has a Netflix label on the box but still shows 256MB for the MU. Power brick is at least 3 inches shorter than the Falcon and I don't hear a fan in it. Several of the holes in the end are plugged and there are slits in the edges for cooling. Yes it is extremely quiet running off the hard drive.
I don't know why you have to reinstall all the games when switching to a new console. The DVD still has to be in the drive.??

DRM
yeah, DRM. I"m sure it codes it to that install and your machine so the hard drive copy will not work with another console that has different mac address etc.
I mean the discs are all the same, so it wont be able to tie it to the disc in anyw ay.

I got mine from Dell today, and I know it's a Jasper, but I'm not sure if it's the 512MB flash one, because I didn't check. I'm disappointed on how cheap the power supply is compared to my old one. I'm also pissed that I can't use an HDMI cable & the cable that came with it at the same time. Now I need a component cable again so I can use my turtle beach headset.
Originally posted by: taltamir
you can snap the plastic off of their regular connector, then you can plug a normal HDMI cable AND their component cable at the same time, and use the audio out from the component along with the video from HDMI.
I ordered the cable for $22 from one of the Amazon sellers, thanks!!Originally posted by: Shaq
The PS looks cheaper but it is cooler than the 175 watt even without the fan. That's MS for you. You have to buy their HDMI kit which comes with the audio connector. It is on sale for $31 with FS at Amazon and Newegg right now. I was disappointed that it came with a composite cable and not components but I already had the HDMI kit.

Hi, would anyone post the date of manufacture for the Dell Jasper Xbox 360 that they received?
Thank you!
