360 Platinum with Xtra controller, headset, and live silver

Linkage
I think it just the same as everyone else just cheaper and you get the extra wireless controller for free.

Seems kinda hot.

That's a very nice price. Seems like my Xbox ownership is getting closer and closer with each little price drop... if only I could find one for $99....

 

[mzkhadir]

Its a refurb.

silver is free. You can demos, marketplace stuff, game updates. I've gotten roster updates for with silver. Occasionally someone will sponsor a free weekend where you'll be able to play online with others.

No offense but I wouldn't touch a refurbished Xbox 360 with 10 foot pole.

 

[imported_BS]

Yea I would stand clear of refurbed 360's. Even brand new ones are iffy!

 

[hytek369]

the price was too good too be true

I bought one of these from Geeks about 3 months ago...looks brand new and haven't had any problems.
Some people are so twitchy about refurbs...oh well, their loss!

What's the failure rate on new 360's?:roll:

[CrackRabbit]

That is a great deal!
If you are truly worried about the warranty I am sure MS will be happy to sell you one.
Makes me wish I had waited a bit.

Maybe they fixed whatever the failure cause is when the refirbed it. like they put an extra dab of grease on the fan bearings or something?

i barely used mine for a year because of work. and when i finally had time to play it 13 months later, it died after a week of moderate playing just out of warranty.

i think this is actually $299 now which is a good deal, but yeah i'm pretty wary of the 360 completely at this point. maybe when the 65nm ones come out.

 

[ViviTheMage]

if its refurb, it probably got the ring of death then fixed!

I'd stay far away from these. Bought one of these a month ago same company. Locked up after 15minutes. Sent it back 15% restock fee and 3 weeks before they refunded my card.
Beware
