  • It's the 250gb as well. Nice one. Good 1st post.

    Bundle Includes Xbox 360 250GB E Console Holiday Value Bundle (with Halo 4 and Tomb Raider Download Card) XB3 Battlefield 4 XB3 Batman Arkham Origins

    This is actually a pretty amazing deal. I bought same thing from jbhifi minus batman for $269 a fortnight ago!

    • Me tooo

      DAMN!!!

  • Very good deal.

  • Cool find. I think I'm gonna bite the bullet. Any discount code to make this deal cheaper? I checked on the internet but found nothing.

  • Wasn't the Kinect Dicksmith deal a better one at $199 ?

    • +1

      Depends if you want the above games or not. The DS deal is a 250gb console and Kinect (plus Adventures) but no other games.

    • no physical stock anywhere… unicorn pricing…
      think bigw online has more stock

    • Depends. The kinect dicksmith for me is a better deal because I get to have Kinect sports and dance central. In addition, I got all the games above in PC since I mainly play in PC.

    • Kinect is $79 new, so I think the Kinect bundle was better value. I got one on Saturday but they're now out of stock all over the Hunter, just like this one.

      • I got the Kinect bundle on Sunday but didn't hear about it on OzB, and yeah it was the last one in store. Interesting so many others went for the same thing as me :-P

  • Good games!
    A shame I have them except Batman..

    • +4

      Less than $200 with heaps of games and accessories available vs $600 with not much available yet.
      Seems an easy choice for the next year or so. I would switch to Xbox One but the cost of a decent steering wheel to suit costs more than the console itself!

    • +3

      Obsolete games? There's hundreds of games and they won't work on the One. No reason not to have both.

      • -6

        Who plays the old games when the new games get released so often? Also after a year, when developer will stop making 360 version of games then what you going to do with Xbox 360?

        • +2

          I do.
          Or at least you can sell them and the console after you have completed them.

        • +5

          Well for people who didn't own a 360 (or PS3), these games aren't really "old"
          It's all relative to the person playing them.

          It's a bit like movies.
          Just because a good movie comes out on DVD or in the $1 bin, does it mean that movie is now bad?
          Some of us are happy living a year or two behind for the sake of saving a bit of money.

          Besides, we will still see new titles on the 360 and PS3 for the next 1-2 years.
          It will take developers about 2-4 years to actually use the hardware on those new platforms properly.
          Look at PS3. This year we have seen TLOU, GTA5 and GT6. Probably three of the best games to come out on the PS3. There is no reason they couldn't have developed those games 7 years ago as the hardware hasn't changed.

  • Thinking of buying, how much are the games if bought one by one? What is an E console?

  • Thanks OP, just grabbed one. For those with experience buying online from Big W, roughly how long before a click and collect order would be available for pickup? I've purchased from Bankstown NSW if that helps.

    • +1

      During checkout it says it'll be available 24/12/2013. Hopefully that's the absolute latest! I've never used Big W's Click and Collect so I'm curious too. It does say it's shipped from the manufacturer (or something similar like that) so does that mean a Microsoft warehouse?

      • Yeah it said something similar, from 20th to 24th. I hope so because I'm flying out on Christmas afternoon.

    • +1

      You should have an estimated collection date on the last order screen and order confirmation. Mine says between 23 and 27 of December. Not bad.

      For me this is a massive deal as I don't own any of those games or any kind of Xbox. I was actually going to wait for those games to become cheaper on PS3 but at this price with the console why wait?

    • +1

      When I purchased the Xbox360 4GB + Minecraft, there were 6 days between the order and the notification that it was ready for collection. They will hold it for collection for 14 days.

      • Cool thanks for the reply.

  • Can't buy? Thought for few mins and it's gone already?

  • Wow, seems I got in while there was stock.
    I've just realised I haven't played Halo 2 or 3, anyone recommend a good place to get these?

    • Halo 2 was on pc i think, i bought the game but it never worked on windows 7 as it said only vista (which is weird). One day hopefully I'll be bothered enough to find vista to play the game lol

  • dam

  • +1

    Grabbed one. Hopefully it arrives!

    Quick check on ebay:
    - BF4 $40
    - Batman $20
    - Tomb Raider $20
    - Halo 4 $5-10

    So that's around $100 for the console & controller. Prices vary a ton for used consoles, there's a similar one to mine for $50. New genuine controllers go for $40-50.
    Less some shipping costs, all up I'll get a new 250GB console vs my 20GB 6 yr old one, for not much $ in the end!

    Trade in list at JB shows X360 BATMAN ARKHAM ORIGINS and X360 BATTLEFIELD 4 are included for FREE WHEN YOU TRADE TWO GAMES promotion. Not sure if list is still valid though as it is dated 01/10/2013.

    Could trade these two in for a new release game? - usually costing around $90.

  • hopefully DSE / Target will follow BIGW offering same deal or cheaper? :(

    Hi folks,

    I never have any PS / Xbox console before, do you need wireless internet access / Special TV model to be able to connect and play the games?
    Any info?

    Thanks!

    • Both consoles have ethernet ports in them so wireless is not necessary but it does make it more convenient as you don't need to run cable. Neither require constant net access if you are just playing the games i.e. not multiplayer or anything like that. But you will want net access at times to download games and updates.

      No special TV model required although one with HDMI inputs makes things a bit simpler.

      • Thanks for the info & explanation, mate!

        I'm using Voda pocket WIFI 12GB a month only, so download is not an option for me :(

  • damn it sold out, would of got one as my current 360 is dieing. Oh well back to X1.

  • as i mentioned a month ago when peple got excited by the recent x360 deals these r gonna get cheaper. and cheaper still. will b sum great x360 deals come 2014.

  • Best Bundle thus far

  • My order status now says backordered. Anyone else's say the same?

    • How do you check? I didn't create an account when ordering so I'm not sure if I can. I haven't received any addition emails though.

      • I had an account. Don't think you will be able to check since you didnt create one.
        Only email i got after was a tax invoice, showing a crazy discount of $300 off the original $488 price

    • Mine says processing.

      Btw, thanks OP! been looking for a 360. :)

      Edit: now it says backordered. :(

    • Mine says "In Progress" but not holding my breath. Hopefully it doesn't get updated to "Backordered". I do have a tracking number with the following updates:

      Date Time Event
      12 Dec 2013 11:00 AM Parcel booked.
      12 Dec 2013 04:41 PM Parcel created.

  • Just spoke to Big W and it's not actually backordered, and has actually been packed. So no need to worry if your order says backordered :)

  • Damn it Big W - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/126737

    Why isn't this deal still on today? :>

    • I think the deal expired shortly before the $10 off EDR code got posted.

  • As I didn't create an account I'm going to keep an eye out here hoping other will update as their order progresses. :)

  • Order Dispatched!

  • And it just arrived!

    • +1

      Hope you are enjoying it.
      I'm still waiting to hear any word but I still have hope.

      • Yeah, maybe I should have had it delivered… My order's progress says "In Transit" and it has for a couple days now.

  • Ha. I just realised my original email had a link to a page with tracking info. Mine is still listed as in transit.

    The fact that a new combo with a 4GB console and a single game is now $188 makes me suspect that it might have been an error. But the fact the some have already received theirs makes me feel better.

  • Just got a text saying its available for pick up at my local Big W. 5 day wait.

  • Mine is still in transit. I hope you are all enjoying your gaming.

    • Scratch that. It's now in my lounge room downloading Tomb Raider.
