Good deal on a xbox360 console + modern warfare2?

[James Bond]

I need a new Xbox360 console. I also need Modern Warfare 2. (And a new Live sub, now that I think about it)

Where can I get the best deal for both of these? Even an XboxArcade would work.

You really want an Elite, so the MW2 $400 bundle might actually make sense for you.

Otherwise, look in the Hot Deals forum here, Cheapassgamer, Fatwallet, GottaDeal.com

Why do I want an Elite as opposed to the arcade?

250GB harddrive, headset, extra controller, all needed cables, play and charge kit.. The MW2 bundle is a good deal.

no offense, but you may want to go do some research of your own about the difference between an elite and an arcade is before you go purchasing a console.

Playing games from the HDD vs. live DVD is night and day, the noise from the DVD drive is unbearable.

I think Toys R Us has a nice gift card $$ with the purchase of a console and MW2, check your sales flyers.

BF is coming soon. You also missed a hell of a deal this past Saturday from Walmart and Amazon.com.

I already have all of that stuff. I just need a new console.

Does the Arcade allow a HDD to be attached?

Yes, as long as it's a Microsoft HDD. You can't attach a regular laptop drive.

yes, I swapped out my falcon elite for a Jasper arcade and just put my HDD on it and was good to go.

Amazon had a deal where you got the Arcade + $100 Amazon GC which made the 360 $99. Walmart had a similar deal but both are over at the moment. As noted above, BF is coming up soon and I can see the same deals coming back.

I ended up picking up a refurbished Xbox Premium (with HDMI) from Gamestop. Total came to like $150 (with 2 year warranty).

Hope you know it's a Falcon mobo, ticking time bomb but that's why it has a 2 year warranty I suppose. Reason I got the Jasper Elite. Was going to go with the Arcade and a 20GB HDD off of ebay which is around $220 total.
