Does that forza pack include the wheel as well? If not, you might be better off just buying the game and console separately (as said earlier).

BTW, I believe JB offers extended warranty (~3-5yrs) for the x360, for only ~$80..

Yea, but I just had an epiphany :P Roof toilets are nice....

Anyway, if EB price matches, I'll give them WOW Sight and Sound's number and print out the catalogue, and tell them to price match it =D

$588 does sound VERY tempting...

Going to wait for the Elite to arrive, my only hope is that it will be in October.

I'd be VERY surprised if it doesn't hit before October.

Umm. What does WoW stand for?

Also, that Myer deal says it's an Xbox Pro Console. What's a Pro console?

Nothing...its just a chain of stores called WoW Sight and Sound, very similar to JB HiFi.

The Pro one is the one with the HDD, HD component cable, remote and wireless controller (whereas for the core you don't get a HDD, get a wired controller and composite cable). I thought it's official name was Premium in Australia, but I could be wrong.

the difference between hdmi and component for the 360 is that hdmi can do 1080p, component can do 1080i.

OR

you could just get a vga cable for the component model.

Yeah I'm pretty sure you can do 1080p over component if your TV supports it...
