    Best time to purchase an Xbox 360 ??

    "So, is it time for you to finally pick up an Xbox 360? The price drop and HDMI output is certainly a nice one-two incentive, especially with the likes of Bioshock and Halo 3 hitting in just a few weeks. But savvy shoppers looking for an even better deal might want to hold out until later this year, until we find out when (or if) we'll see that cooler--and presumably more stable--CPU."

    Xbox 360 Premium now includes HDMI

    Microsoft to cut the price of the Xbox 360

    Xbox 360 Fix may not be much of a fix

    Xbox chips already produced with 65 nanometer chips

    id buy one when the Halo special one comes out

    about the ring of death there is a three year warranty on all Xbox 360's

    but if u want to wait for a price drop it will probly be after holidays and then u would not get halo 3 until really late and possibly be late for halo wars not to mention Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed

    Yeah I'm in the same jam. I need to get enough money to get a 360 before Halo 3 comes out. So I'm hoping that a week before it comes out Microsoft will want everyone to buy a 360 and lower the price some more :D it could happen. Or I wait for the holiday's like you. OR PS3 will get another price drop, so to compete Microsoft will give another price drop on the Preminum 360s making them 299 here in Canada.

    What? You don't have a 360? The best time would be as soon as humanly possible, dirtbag! You can download Marathon via XBox Live Arcade. The prices won't drop until it's all but useless. They'll have the Xbox 720 out by then. Not to mention H3 and HW will be out and gone by then, part of a bygone era. Why would Microsoft drop prices when the game series, for which many people bought an Xbox for to begin with, drop prices then. And with competition just as or more expensive....Just go for it.
    Hahahahaha, I am a genuis. Oh, hello.

     Well they made a 100$ price drop due to the fact that PS3 lowered their prices. And seeing how the PS3 is doing...maybe we'll see more of those :D. But also before the big games come out, a lot of stores would probably put the 360's on sale so that when Halo 3 does come out and Assasins Creed/ Mass Effect and the other 50 awesome games, more people will buy the games since more people bought 360s.
    Now I'm back to my sche---no, pla---preperations of an event...yeah that sounds about right. Say anyone know where the power station is in Montreal, Quebec?

    Re: Best time to purchase an Xbox 360 ??

    Ive seen the red ring of death. It was just a couple of days ago when I was over at a friends house and there was 4-5 of us there. We poped in halo 1 or 2 then the red ring came up. Then the rest of us pointed at the guy who x-box was fried and we all laughed lol. Its fine now for some reason, just left it alone for a day and it is now working good.

    Also id buy it now or if you dont have enough money then id wait till christmas since there is a chance of holiday sales.

    P.S. Who else is excited about Mass Effect?

    there was no price drop

    and noone mention a Xbox 3, because unless there is a BIG change in technology, that wont be happening, since the 360 is designed for near limitless upgradeability, unlike the PS3 which is stuck the way u bought it, unless u want to void the warranty and not be allowed online
