    Hi everyone,

    Ive had a quick glance through the couple of Xbox 360 threads, although hopefully this hasnt been posted.

    GAME in NSW has a deal whereby you trade in a PS2 console with 10 games (there are some games excluded) and you get a Xbox 360 Pro console for $99.
    Game exclusions here: http://www.game.com.au/page.aspx?docid=29

    What I did was went to EB and buy a used PS2 for $89. Then picked up 10 of the cheapest games I could find ($17.85) - buy two get one free.

    Then went to game and trade it all in for a Xbox 360. I owned a PS2 for a total of about 10 minutes :)

    Total cost for the Xbox 360 console was $99 + $213.95 = $312.95!

    Deal ends 24th December!

    Just added the link here http://www.game.com.au/page.aspx?docid=29

    This offer seems to be for NSW stores only? You could try a QLD store or EB to see if they'll match it. People on Whirlpool are saying GAME at Toombul are doing the deal.

    Just a heads up some GAME stores will also accept an xbox + 10 games for the same $100 dollar deal. In my case I called the Broadway GAME, checked if an xbox and a mix of ps2 and xbox games were ok, then carted that heavy fucker in for a non-falcon but HDMI 360.

    I just did this at Game Broadway (nsw), great deal.

    One thing though. Make sure when you buy the ps2 games that they have the manuals with them, game wont accept them for trade if they dont.
