That is an amazing deal to be honest. Go with that.

[BowTies1]

Theres a deal for 360 premium + wireless controller and 2 games for $350 USD. But the deal you found is better.

[Ezzie.]

thanks for the advice, anymore opinions welcomed with a +rep

[BowTies1]

why not just use an ether net cable and froget about the wireless adaptor ?

[Ezzie.]

cos im on wireless.. and the modem is downstairs

[BowTies1]

http://www.game.co.uk/Xbox360/Hardware/HardwareBundle/~r333171/Xbox-360-Premium-with-Halo-3-Gears-of-War-Extra-Wireless-Controller/

they both look pretty good..
plus i could trade in my ps2 and psp and my old games which'd give me about 140 quid i think

opinions appreciated

[Brody]

id go with that deal uve found

me and u have same post count ezzie lol

didnt se the new deals u added it depends on weather u like the games but is a good idea trading in ur ps2 etc

[Alan_Carr]

Well, that Halo 3 and Gears of war package is amazing value, and i would fully take advantage of that :). However, if you're thinking of trading in ps2 etc to get trade in value, you should do that, as if you dont use ur ps2 etc, why let it collect dust when u can get good trade in value for it? :)
I'd go for the trade ins mate

[Ezzie.]

thanks for the advice guys:

i'm going to go with this package :)

But with the wireless adapter i got mine off ebay for £30 and i got 1 year subscription also. i spent around £230 on mine i got the first pack with halo 3 and bought fifa 08 and wireless adapter and 1 year subscript.
