[Official UK] Xbox 360 Special Offers & Deals


Recommended Posts

As I've found out, the cheeky buggers. If it weren't for the fact that I had to end up paying the difference for my new headphones with my parents' PayPal account (don't worry, they know; and I'm paying it all back when I get my EMA on Saturday), I'd have been overdrawn by now.

Your always buying headphones :p

Your always buying headphones :p

Technically, I'm exchanging here. But yeah, this will be the sixth pair of headphones I've bought (I've had two or three others before, but sent them back as they weren't that good).

Happy birthday, BTW! :)

Right, Very are officially a bunch of ****ers and by far the worst company I've ever ordered from.

The Microsoft Points came today, and they've charged me the full ?19 with no ?15 refund in sight. I logged into my account to check the order, and guess what? The account no longer exists! :angry: My second account exists though (which I used a different email address for), and the order appears on there with just the free delivery code there. I didn't even confirm the order on the second account, the thieving gits!!!

I've arranged a return, so I have to wait for someone to pick it up now. I haven't opened the points, thankfully. If I could find a way of opening it up, using the code, and then resealing it again to look like it'd never been opened, I'd bloody do that right now. :p

Will they be charging you for that?

Thankfully, not. I saw on my Twitter feed earlier one of my mates is ticked off at Very as well, but not for the same reason I am...

very.co.uk can die in a fire too. A month for a ?20 PSN card? Sorry. It's a piece of f***ing paper with a code on it.

Hey, I was thinking of getting an Xbox 360 soon and I currently have saved up $116.68. I want a reliable console that I can use to play movies and everything since I have a Zune subscription. I heard Jasper models are most reliable, but I also want a fully functional model that isn't banned from Xbox Live. I want one that's very expansive so if I ever do start to like to game more often, I could add on to make it as good as an Elite model with the large storage and all. But anyway right now I think an Arcade would do. Does anybody know of a place I could get one that's like that? I don't think I care too much about if it's not completely new and is on eBay, as long as it's in good condition and is reliable so I can have fun with it, I'm happy.

Until Microsoft offer USB memory stick support you will also need a memory card or harddisk to use with an Xbox Arcade, as you wont be able to save games. The offers now days for a console with hardisk and games are very reasonable and well worth taking up.

Just fyi, but this topic is for UK members only.

USB support is coming this week (the 6th) which will let you use up to 32GB space with 2 devices. MS have partnered up with SanDisk to sell licensed memory sticks too, but you can use any brand you like.

I think we need a mod to edit the title to say that it's UK offers. Then maybe someone could start up a US version? Same with the PS3 and PC ones as well (the PC one would be the other round though, as the one currently up is a US one).

I can edit the title to whatever I like right now. Don't need a mod. I'll add a prefix with UK tags.

Members have wanted a US topic for a long time - since I created this one basically. Useless us being part of it since we don't know the e-tailers inside out like we do in the UK.

Would require someone with a lot of buying knowledge to start it for the US members.

I'd buy new, less hassle if anything goes wrong, and it won't be banned, opened or a refurb.

I would post up 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction at the same price but they are both showing as sold out. You are able to add them to your basket but you get a message in the basket saying:

Products marked with *** are out of stock or there are not enough in stock to fill your order.
Please change the quantity of products marked with (***). Thank you

Could be worth a try, but I doubt you'd get them on release day?

Add 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa to Basket Link

Add Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction to Basket Link

^ just a tip because I talked about it with Evoman over the weekend, but Fable 2 GOTY is ?10 at Gamestation & Gameplay right now. Comes with all the DLC so it's the better buy.

Mass Effect ?7.93 at The Hut

Yeah sorry DM I forgot to post it!

Anybody have any idea if the supermarkets are going to be doing Fifa World Cup on the cheap like they have the past few Fifa games? Really don't want to spend too much on it but really want to get it.

My brother's in the same boat.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
