A cheaper way to do it is to buy a £100 voucher (2 of them in total) in 2 seperate transactions - this will give you an aditional 2 x £10 of vouchers.

Then use the £220 of vouchers to buy the Xbox - and you will get another £10 voucher.....

Making it £190 which for an arcade and 5 games is hot.

Even so - the games are nothing special. If you want backward compatibility or want to play online then I'd get a premium/pro

Adey - you may want to edit the title to say "£219 or £190 using vouchers"

Fuzion Frenzy 2 is the worst 360 game ever made but the rest of the games are decent.

better put £200 using vouchers as most people dont get £10 vouchers when they pay using vouchers.

They're actually some of the best, but hey! You've probably not played any of them.

I'd have to disagree with "some of the best". They're not rubbish, but they are old and nothing special for their time either. Also not mainstream, except PGR3, which arguably is rubbish.

It is a good deal - but remember the Arcade doesn't come with a hard drive, just a 256mb memory card.

I bought one of these yesterday, and a Samsung 22" which accepts 1080p, and then downscales it to 1050p (running 1650x1050 rather than 1920x1080)they have for £249. Got the HDMI lead from Wilkinsons next door - £4.99 (yeah, like I'm going to pay £14.99 for an HDMI lead, considering all HDMI leads display the same quality!) ;)

Anyway, to answer a question from above :

'do the games come as a pack or all in own dvd case?'

Yes, they do. The 'extra games pack' comes with 5 Xbox cases held together by a strip of plastic - so you are getting 5 original Xbox 360 titles in seperate retail packaging.

I also think that the games are pretty good. Project Gotham Racing 3 is excellent for a driving game. Viva Pinata is excellent - but I can appreciate it won't be everyones cup of tea! Kameo - well, I've not really started it. I'm a fan of the Final Fantasy series of RPGs, but will give it a shot. Fusion Frenzy 2 I've not tried, I'll give that a blast later. Apparently it's a bunch of mini-games, which I tend to quite like.

Some of the arcade games are actually pretty good - but are very much 'freebie' games. That doesn't make them less entertaining - but does make them 'smaller'.

Uhhhh???
There's no such HD source as a 1050p though?
You might find that your screen downscales to a 720p signal or even a 1080i
