So today i finnaly have enough money to buy a 360, and my friend is offering me a never opened 360 Go pro version with the two games for 325 (i rly dont kno why he doesnt want it), anyways its never opened and since it costs less i think im going to buy it. ANyways my question is, should i buy a 360 now? Especially with all this rumors all around of a 360, with a 60 gig hard drive. Also should i buy the go pro version, i mean its 25 less (plus no tax). Thanks for any help

Just register it when you get it. Its annoying when they break but they get it back to you pretty quick and dont charge you.

Its a good deal but why not ask for it for less money. $50 less. Than you can buy a year of live. My only concern is when does the warranty take effect when he bought it or when you regisiter it. They do break so you would definitely want a year warranty unless its a falcon

Ya I could see M$ selling off old chips in core or arcade models at a slightly lower price but seriously how much of a price cut are you expecting?

If you want to go wireless you'll need a wireless adapter. I'd recommend an original Xbox adapter. They're much cheaper than the one for 360.BoNeS77713

oh thanks a lot
