Microsoft announces new Xbox 360

[Lordbob75]

Gamestop is suppose to offer some trade-in deals with older Xbox 360 units for newer ones starting next week.

As what the offers will be, I have no clue. Hoping I won't have to pay more then $100 if I trade in my perfectly fine (and working perfectly) Xbox 360 Elite.

Hey, do you have any more info on that? My elite is in perfect condition (minus some dust).

I don't really like the new one all that much, but the hardware is better, so it might be worth it.

However, glossy = gross
Might have to paint it a sexy flat black.

Not only is it a fingerprint and dust magnet (more so from the fingerprints), shiny black has always looked stupid.

I don't even like glossy black cars..... I would rather have a flat black one (which is not sold anywhere)

I just picked up a used 360 arcade today from Gamestop, just so that I could play some Alan Wake. Probably take it in Monday, when I get my check, and either return it, or trade it in, and grab a new one. I agree though, I would much rather it have been flat black as opposed to glossy...

I guess companies aren't aware of the whole "fingerprint magnet" thing...

It looks a lot better than the original 360. Its a shame my partner already has an original because its looks out of place now next to my PS3. I quite like the glossy black, I think it would look great next to my glossy PS3; even though it does collect dust its easy to wipe with a dust cloth

EDIT: Gamestop.com - Trade-In Offers

I'll just sell my Xbox 360 Elite on eBay for $200ish (or higher if I can). To be honest, paying only $100 for a new 360 that has WiFi and a 250GB HDD is worth it since Wireless N adapters and 250GB HDD's for the 360 are extremely expensive.

Either way though, gamestop giving me $40 for my 120GB HDD and giving $30 for a 20GB? I see something wrong there.

Returned it today. Apparently the new model is popular. Went to 5 different Gamestops, and they were all sold out. Gonna head to Best Buy or Frys on Monday to get mine, I guess. Have to finish Alan Wake.

Try the Microsoft Store. They sell it on there. If I cannot get it elsewhere for cheaper I'll buy it from the MS store since my bank gives me 5% cash back on purchases from the MS store.

Mind uhm.. sharing that discount?

 

[blackroseMD1]

Eh, I have a friend that works at Gamestop, so I'm going to have him buy one for me with his employee discount...although they may not get anymore until next Friday. The MS store or Best Buy are my next options. Either way, Gamestop has a 2 for 1 special this weekend on used games, so I have to go back there anyway.

That would be nice. Could give my current elite to Zidane and have a brand new one! LOL
