Because 400 would be what the USD version will cost, due to currency differences. In reality, according to the currency converter, the Xbox 360 Premium package should be $484.

399.99 USD = 484.408 CAD

1 USD = 1.21105 CAD

1 CAD = 0.825730 USD

So if in fact it is 500, we are being ripped off.

I'm pretty sure it'll be 499.99...

We're for sure going to get ripped off

On behalf of all the people in the UK, you are still getting a better deal. :whistle:

I posted this in one of the other topics, but i thought I'd get more answers here. I'm planning on selling around 70 of my xbox/ps2/gamecube games to help pay for my xbox 360...splurging ($1,101 on launch :pinch: .) Should I trade them into Gamestop (they said they give an extra 20% if it goes towards the x360) or should I sell them as a lot on eBay?

i emailed GAME (im in UK too) and they replied saying that as of yet it is too soon to be thinking about bundles (if you mean games included) but im guessing that maybe a week or two after release we will be seeing bundles. Im guessing both packages + one game or something like that. Which is why im waiting till January to get mine...

Not wanting to go through the entire thread to establish my questions just wondering..

I went into work today and checked our computers for the Xbox360. I saw two entries for pre-order, a 1gig model and a 20gig model..

Is this correct as I thought one package did not come with no hard-drive at all ??

You're correct, not the computer. The core package doesn't have a hdd, but the premium (well, not really premium, but th[reali>[/b]b>) xbox 360 comes with the 20GB HDD

Itec Lineup

September 01, 2005 - Intec today announced its new lineup of accessories and peripherals designed for the Xbox 360. Intec plans to have its entire announced lineup on store shelves on November 4th, which is the date Intec expects to see the Xbox 360 launch.

Taken straight from Intec's press release, the announced lineup includes:

"Perfect for the mobile gamer, Intec's TFT Screens for Xbox 360 come in an 8" model (G8601 / MSRP: $169.99) and a 9.2" model (G8600 / MSRP: $199.99). Each unit provides top-of-the-line graphics and sound in one compact unit and each folds flat onto the 360 for easy storage. These screens deliver top-quality graphics resolution to match the 360's high-end processors.

"The A/V Selector & Storage unit (G8618 / MSRP: $39.99) for 360 features four inputs in addition to the Xbox 360. This unit comes with two integrated storage compartments to store the remote control, memory cards and various accessories, and includes component video connections for higher quality video demanded by high-definition TVs. The A/V selector also features Internet-ready jacks.

"Next, the Vertical Stand w/ Game & Memory Storage (G8645 / MSRP: $19.99) for 360 allows users to secure their Xbox 360 in a vertical position while at the same time displaying their selection of favorite games. The vertical stand front is finished with a chrome look to match the new 360 and stores up to 10 game cases and 2 memory cards.

"Customized for the Xbox 360, Intec's Pro Gamer's Case (G8660 / MSRP: $39.99) features compartments specifically designed to fit the new Xbox 360 and protect it while on the go. It features separate compartments for 2 controllers, attachments, and even games. For the 360 gamer on the go, Intec also offers its 10-CD Aluminum Case (G8664 / MSRP: $14.99), which allows users to store up to 10 game discs?it perfectly matches with the Pro Gamer's Case for 360!

"Lastly, Intec's Game Holder (G8665 / MSRP: $14.99) for Xbox 360 allows users to organize their 360 games in a neat vertical stack. This game holder holds up to 10 game cases and is styled to match the look of the new Xbox 360."

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
