Any chance we could see the full pages to check the PS3/Nintendo deals and games as well?

awesome deal !!

Well this puts one over Harveys.

agreed, these deals just get better and better! lol,

Which state/city is this for? I can’t find this catalogue on the BigW site..

see headline, doesn’t start yet

really tempted to get an xbox. anyone knows if the Final Fantasy series are released on the 360?

XIII will be

No, no the rest of the series, they’re all Playstation only. Only the very newest one (is it out yet?) is for both PS3 and 360.

No… Nintendo have them too

Just to clarify, the Xbox 360 is getting the exact same new Final Fantasy game as the PS3 is. Only difference is that the 360 one will be on 2 - 3 discs whilst the PS3 version is on one BRD.

final fantasy 13 will be on xbox and ps3.
Final fantasy 13 Versus : ps3 only
Final fantasy 14: online only and will be on pc, ps3 and possibly 360.

Yeah where is this deal at, I can’t see it on Lasoo either for their Big W catalogues.

it isn’t on any websites yet which is why it is a photo of a catalogue. TheGunslinger got his hands on a copy of next weeks catalogue a week early.

Ah I see. May I ask how you know this?

So details on when the sale will be on then would be beneficial? I guess we can’t walk into any Big W stores and get them at that price right now?!

I read the heading for the bargain.

ha! I wont say it wasn’t there when I looked … but I never noticed it. Thx for the direction :)

lol, best response ever

nice

i’d prefer to wait for this though, next month

it looks so hot. omg want one.

good thing is it comes with 2 controllers as standard. :)

I wonder if it will ever land here and at what price …

i was thinking about this before, i suspect at the same price as the halo wars pack - $400.

u wish lol! it will be $500-600 since it’s $399 usd

the ps3 is $299 usd and they sell for $499 here.

yeah but we get an xbox elite + 2 games for $400, so would would assume they would charge the same for a mw2 xbox elite + controller + cod basic.

otherwise they won’t get many sales lol

um.. it’s limited edition? they will sell out in a matter of minutes!

http://www.kotaku.com.au/2009/09/250gb-xbox-coming-to-austra...

It’s out on November 10.
It’s priced at $599 RRP.
It’s black with Modern Warfare 2 on it.
It comes with a 250GB hard drive, two black wireless controllers, a black wired headset, and a copy of Modern Warfare 2.

bah 200 more expensive, totally not worth it :(

Pretty much $150 more for 130GB more HDD space and the MW2 design. Considering you can get an extra controller for $50 at GAME atm.

Considering the cost of 360 HDD’s probably not that bad really if you are after a limited edition console.

http://www.game.com.au/showtitle?code=52V-00263

Expected Release Date: 10/11/2009

It’s a special edition… Do you really expect it to be comparable in price to the deals on the regular, unlimited supply models? ;)

wishful thinking ;)

yeah the 250GB HDD and copy of MW2 also sounds appealing eh?

My guess is these are the current Xbox360 elites, possibly the old Falcons even (I may be wrong, haven’t cheacked too recently). But I have seen an unboxing of the new Elite package and the power brick is even smaller, so possibly a slight revision.

Pretty sure from what I have seen, the price drops are going to bring a new Elite package with Halo ODST + Halo 3. The bundle has been cut down to the console, controller, composite AV cables (No component or HDMI) and I think the headset.

Decent deal nonetheless. I’m in the market for a 360 myself so goona see what kinda bundles pop up over then next month at the new low price.

jasper elite has been in the wild for a while now.

should i get a PS3 or a 360 if i’m going to play more RPGs?

360 has a tonne of RPG’s

Top one’s being Fable 2(exclusive), Lost Odyssey(exclusive), Eternal Sonata aaahhh heck look for yourself

http://games.teamxbox.com/index/xbox-360/by-genre/18/

Ps3 doesn’t have many in comparison, the only exclusive that comes to mind is FolkLore which got average reviews

http://uk.videogames.games.yahoo.com/ps3/reviews-previews/rp...

lol.

PS3 is getting Star Ocean: The last hope next year, and already has Tales of Vesperia and Eternal Sonata. PS3 also has great SRPGs such as Disgaea 3 and Valkyria Chronicles. Rumour is that the next mass effect is going to be on PS3 as well.

If you’re not going to play online as much (as in the case of someone who mains rpgs) PS3 is a good choice.

yeah like i said none come to mind, nothing special mentioned there mate ^

you rest your hopes on what the 360 already has, lol back at ya ;)

by the way i own both consoles and like both of them, i’m just giving the guy my opinion, not trying to join in on a fanboy war (gamertag is beakeroo on both consoles if you wanna take a look)

bigw catalogue is out, check it here:

http://catalogues.bigw.com.au/portal/offerdetails/xbox-360-e...

Just bought mine from Waverley Gardens BigW, MDR 2009-07-11, 12.1A = Jasper! :)

Is it the new Elite pack? ie. console, controller, standard AV cable and headset. No HDMI, component AV cable or audio adapter.

Going by the manufacture date I would guess it is the new Elite pack.

This start today?

yes it is.

Can’t you read the date… ;)

AWESOME PRICE
Trade in COD:WAW to Game for %29.95 to get Halo 3: ODST.
Thn trade BOTH copies of HALO 3: ODST into EB Games for $174 credit (for the games you REALLY want)
Elite is now $253.95
WOW!!!!!

Not bad, I like your thinking.

So you get $29.95 credit from game for WaW and pay the rest for ODST?

It’s a trade offer. You pay $29.95 when you trade 1 eligible title. http://www.game.com.au/tradedeals

This deal is sold out at the few BigW stores I’ve contacted. I was told by staff that they are continuing it in the next catalogue (i.e. on-sale from this Thu 1st Oct) but in slightly modified form: you still get Halo 3 ODST but instead of CoD:WoW they’re including Quantum of Solace (James Bond).

So still probably the best xbox deal going at the moment, but not quite as good given Quantum of Solace is pretty ancient now and not worth much if you were to trade it in.
