Yes, this is RIDICULOUS.
My first post, and it's a good one! After seeing someone post the $30 version of this @ DSE, I decided to ask GAME if they could price-match. After scanning the barcode, their system said it was $28. WOW.
Bundle Includes:
Black Xbox 360 Wireless Controller
Lumines LIVE!
Geometry Wars 2
Bomberman Live
Ms. Pac-Man

i like your thumb
took the photo off my phone in the car ^_^
How tight are you gripping it? Your thumb is white! :D
All gamers are white from not getting enough sun. Even those of African-blood. :p
+1 for the thumb!
incase someone tries to grab it from the window…or it's just cold lol
that passenger looks comfortable!
Are u serious? Blade tried this and posted it in the Dse deal. Credit where credits due.
I posted this, then checked the DSE deal to let people know, and saw blades post and confirmed I got the same deal. That was only a couple of hours ago :)
Very nice:)!
Haha, FIFA 07 wasn't even worth $4?
Wanted NBA instead :)
Is this in-store only? As I can't find it on their web site, I am assuming yes.
Definitely in-store. The barcode still states $79.95, even the guy behind the counter was shocked.
Bring back the hand!!!
Can we have a full picture of the hand?
the link to the photo is there if you like it that much :)
I got the last one at GAME on rundle mall Adelaide
i rang eastgardens , NSW , they said 54 for the white one .. :(
http://www.game.com.au/xbox-360-wireless-controller/xbox-360…
Mm, 54 for controller on website. Ehh.
have them scan the box of this pack, as they may just quote you on the tag they see
has it got to be the game pack u got ? or any xbox controller ?
same pack
and I am sitting there asking myself… y is my local game shop so ghey…
How can a store be homosexual? I hope your a school kid on holidays, otherwise you got some serious growing up to do idiot.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ghey
from my bad Engrish, it also means lame? n no, Im a uni student with 2 jobs living in a poverty sytle XD
haha remember those days .. glad im done with UNI :)
I am aware of this. But it is also insulting to be used in this context. Once again, grow up.
@PainToad: It's a slang amongst my group of friends in my community, picked it up n used it pretty much on anything I dislike after being with them for more than 3 years as I pretty much sees them everyday…
I am truly sorry if I offended u with the word, it really depends on how u take my sentences at the end of the day, as I've also know that gay can mean happy (learnt from gay time, do they have to grow up too?).
A word can have multiple meanings and I dun think u know me well enough to tell what sort of person I am by a sentence.
As for growing up, physically I am forced to, but you can neva force me to grow mentally as I am happy with myself just the way I am XD
Have a nice day, btw just went to Game again n same old stuff as yesterday, ask them if they have black controllers n they simply said no n turn away…
@mikkim4eva: "n" "u" "dun" "neva" "sees"
You sound like a typical ignorant teen. Which makes sense really.
Just because a word is used a lot by a certain subculture, it does not make it acceptable.
@PainToad: Lighten up, it's very clear that he had no intention to insult or offend anyone.
It also doesn't make the situation any better when you throw back an insult by calling him an idiot. Kind of makes you look worse since you've portrayed yourself as someone with respect, yet set such a bad example.
A simple comment that his words should be chosen more carefully will suffice.
@PainToad: I think Plaintoad's objection is justified.
This phrase does tend to be used predominantly by younger teens, and as such I'm surprised it does occasionally appear on this forum (albeit very rarely).
@PainToad: My God, why are you being such an ass to everyone? You're the one that needs to grow up.
Why criticise others for their grammar or choice of words, when you're no better?

"These also have standard USB cord. New model does not, loose that cord and ur screwed."
loose? ur?
1 week too late maybe, but I just had to say something after coming back to this page because your arrogance and hypocrisy just got to me.
@ozhunter: I was thinking of the 28th since that was when the last comment was posted..but anyway, I still had to.
Bit of a worry when Urbandictionary (Pick your choice of meaning or make up your own and add it) is used as a authority over the Oxford, etc.
No 7 from the same page has some truth to it: "…often used by people who want to look cool or 1337. makes the user look lame… use this word at your own risk". Isn't "crap" or "lame" good enough anymore? ;-)
@daydream: ok u made ure point I am young n stupid n desperately trying to look cool every single sec in my life~ I am sorry n I'll make sure I wont use that word again? Paintoad u are 120% right ;P
+1 for linking to the Urban Dictionary
if it sleeps with a male store.
apparently most stores sold out said the guy from east gardens (incl. east gardens )
Just got one in Bendigo. :) Now trying to justify a second… :)
The people working at Game Eastgardens are terrible. I went in there once and the didnt even help you at all. Asked them if a item is in stock they just go "no" so crap.
I am 100% agree that the Eastgarden store attendant are going down massively in term of manner.
I've once asking for Energizer conduction charging, and ask his opinion about the quality. I said that there is some issue with it as being told by couple people in the forum. He bash those people by his rude reply: Everyone in the forum ALWAYS having problem. He then ignore me after saying that! Go figure…
I too have had many issues with the guys at eastgardens the two little chubby guys I think one has a goatie . I actuallygot escorted ou by sercurity and then I made a formal complaint to head office . I dot want to get anyone sacked bu they need to learn some people skills hard
Unfortunately you will need to buy a receiver to use this on your PC. Was about to head out but I quickly checked if it would work on a PC out of the box but alas no :(
Ahh, bugger. I was planning the same thing.. would have been nice for when FFXIV comes out later this year.
This is brilliant, I went to Wollongong store and got one, they say its the LAST…
I also saw the GENUINE white Wireless Headset was $18.00 and the Genuine white battery was $8.00.. I could not find them online so I did not post them as a deal
Cheers for the info
Got it for $25 at GAME chatswood, NSW because their EFTPOS machine is faulty.
Got last XBOX 360(2006 main CPU and AC only) for $50 with 14days return policy at DSE, chatswood.
50 bux!!
what! how! when! Am i reading this wrong?
Pic of receipt or it didn't happen.
if you're referring to the original post I made, there's a link to the receipt photo.
I'm referring to the $50 XBox 360.
@Livert: its for real! sorry i don't have scanner now but the XBOX(2006) is just the CPU and power adapter(no memory/controller). its not brand new but it has 14days DSE return policy and im happy with it because im a very casual gamer… i play games probably once every a couple of months. i got the ps3 last dec for $350(cotd-paypal) and only played < 20 times. my gift last dec PS3 MW2 is still sealed. :-)
GAME chatswood still got 2 of the controller pack after i purchased 2. i was looking for PS3 controller but they are out of stock, he said by next week they'll have it in store for about $68. i dont know if its the cheapest genuine PS3 controller available.
@kuripot: Lol man, looks like you're so casual you're not going to even play it!
It was a bad decision, but since I'm so nice and don't want you to regret it, I'll take it off ya for $50 :P
My son is also called Bort
- Simpsons
combine this with Black Xbox 360 (Elite) for $249 + 2 Games! JB Hi-Fi ,you get all you X-box gear ready to roll!
Lil bro got his as DSE…paid $30 though! so this is a huge bargain he he $2 cheaper ;)
Sold out: Greensborough, Plenty Valley & Epping
EB will not price match.
However, I managed Kmart to price match when they were in stock.
I;m going to give the one in my area a call tomorrow and see if they will match prices.
i tried kmart cranbourne and they said dont sell them
Game cranbourne sold out, the lady there told me the 1 guy bought all six.. DSE dandenong sold out.. EB do not price match (sucks) but i managed to get JB Hi-Fi in Dandenong to price match game so i got it for $28 also… great buy
Watch out for the six on ebay.
My bf bought one from GAME Oakleigh. When he rang, they got 4. When he got there, there were 3 left and he bought one.
damn lucky kid. All the game stores are closed in Brisbane not to mention they're all a good drive away for me. Fingers crossed JB will price match Dick Smith and Game.
Thanks OP just got one today :D
I managed to find one also, from Game in Shepparton. Seemed to be the last one, at least on the shelf. They even had the $28 price on sticker. Also they had the same things as reported here earlier, white wireless headset for $18.00 and white battery for $8.00.
sweet, a mate just picked me up a couple in one of the sydney stores
Tried to get one today. JB and EB had plenty but basically laughed at me when I asked to price-match.
Game + DSE were sold out. Canberra.
Was sad, but gf wins points for buying me a normal controller for $50 from GAME when my back was turned.
Aww what a nice girlfriend! Beware, now you'll have to fork out more than $50 for her diamond ring ;)
Lol. Owned.
C_b_c Z_rc_n__
Wanna buy a vowel?
wise investment from the girlfriend!
@applebyte: Indeed! She is a keeper. Though she did get quite angry at me a little bit later when I told her that she couldn't play Mario on the Xbox.
Hope i can find a similar game to keep her wrath to a minimum.
Check mate.
I just managed to score one off ebay new sealed was originally purchased at retail store in sydney for the same price the were being sold at DSE & Game. So keep an eye out, the ppl that bulk bought then youll see them popping on ebay soon enough.
Haha good work! That would mean that they actually lost money with the postage. Sucks to be them for grabbing so many copies at once and ruining the deal for everyone
Does anyone know if any Melbourne stores still have this in stock or am I too late?
i heard that GAME are looking to get more stock. If they do can someone please repost this bargain.
Everywhere close to me in eastern melbourne is sold out.
I asked my local GAME store and they said NO :(
Nice fingers!
