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

    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
