Xbox 360 Elite bundle with 16 games £299.99 @ ChoicesUK


£299.99

245°

FOUND BY: tuckeral 6 months, 4 days ago

Currently 'stock on order status' but available to buy and advertised in their most recent newsletter.

The bundled games include:
EA Entertainment Pack (Includes, Burnout Ultimate, Trivial Pursuit )
Transformers
World Championship Offroad Racing
Tony Hawk's Proving Ground
Golden Compass
Disney Pixar Cars 2 Mater National

SEGA Superstars Tennis
Eragon
TNA Impact
Timeshift
Hour of Victory

Seems like a good price to me. Bundle claims a saving of £572 off RRP but all these games are available at <£10 now.

No Quidco or topcashback available, but discount available from WePromiseTo, CashbackKings, CashbackNetwork, Rpoints and GiveOrTake

Some ok games but a lot a rubbish ones too and its not like they are worth more than a few quid each to trade in. On the face of it it looks good value, just warm from me.

You can get a 360 Elite with GTA 4 for £220 from Game and Gamestation. That to me offers better value because you could pick up Gears of War 2, Halo 3 and maybe Fallout 3 with the other £70.

Cold.

If you're getting it for kids as a pressie, then I'd say it was a good deal - imagine their faces when they open it with all the games!

For more mature gamers, then this isn't a great bundle. OK, but not great

Choices have been really reliable for me the last few times, but i look at this deal and think its guna be a dusty older manu elite bundled together with all them games which they couldn't shift for a fiver, with a WEP ontop. Lukewarm at best.

If you have a lot of present to give, this could work pretty well. You can sort out 16 presents. Well you can keep 2 or 3 games and the extra controller.

I think is a decent deal. Heat added. I am sure once this gets to the HOT page it would get really hot really quick.

Agree, games are all to be avoided - except Burnout in the wireless pack and maybe Smackdown if you're into those. The other games are all the worst the system has to offer and wouldn't get more than £3 trade on any of them.

Yes, I think the games are pretty rubbish, apart from Burnout and maybe one or two more. They could have added some better cheap games that at least you would want to play like Mass Effect, DOA4, PGR3 or PGR4, etc, but no it looks like they just went to the back of the warehouse and got all the games that they never sold and put them here.

You'd be better off looking for a hardware-only deal and buying the games you actually want. I swear they only use these deals to get rid of games that aren't selling.

The Elite isn't anything special either, same console as the Arcade, you're paying a lot extra for the black dye and a 120Gb hard drive you'll probably never use. My 20Gb hard drive is still adequate after three years.

+1

even if you wanted ALL those games, you could pick them up for say a fiver each so you are in effect paying £220 for an elite!

Agreed. But as for the hdd, have you tried playing games once their installed? no noise, no excessive heat, etc. its why i sold my 20gb and went for 60gb
