XBOX 360 is "The Thing To Talk About" with a big price tag

shuaibao · 06-11-2005, 09:55 PM

Remind me what the price tag of XBOX 360 was....
uh...
$500 !?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Wow....I don't see how I can afford this, a trade in is $100.

(eBay prices: $0.01, three days later: $500)

It needs to get less expensive.

um, I heard it was starting at $300 for bare system with the 20GB drive... where did you see the $500 and are you sure it wasn't a delux system?

Yeah... A US$500 price tag is a little on the rich side. At that price, I would be expecting a DVD Remote, AT LEAST 3 extra games along with it too and maybe a blow job too.

I just hope that it's not going to be slap in the face price drop 8 weeks after initail release. I really feel sorry for all those that purchased an X-Box during the initail release.

I read somewhere that the xbox 360 will be around $300-350, same with the PS3.

My friend works for EBWORLD and stated that it was like 300 or 350, so relax.

$500AUD would b a really good price i think as the first launched at $650+ i think?? $500AUD would giv microsoft a great distribution before sonys ps3 i think and by then x360 will be cheaper and the better looking (pricewise)
