Since disabling email updates on immediate forum replies - who needs the stress! - I've actually found that making this thread a sticky has decreased its visibility, to me at least. Seeing the US Deals thread being updated alongside the stickied UK version has made me realise this.

Still got my 360 S pre-ordered at ShopTo at £184.85, with my fiver off making it £179.85 (from predicting the football), is that the cheapest? I've heard a rumour that Sainsbury's will be selling it for £140, anyone else heard it?

/me just got from the year 1,002,009 and can confirm the 360S is being sold in Sainsburys for £139.99 which is slightly less than a million years :p

Mind you the new virtual reality 360 is amazing there, its just like the holodeck from startrek.

Sainsburys did sell the Wii (motion plus + resort pack) cheap a couple months ago, but ?139.99 seems far too cheap.

Wish I hadn't pre-ordered from GAME, awful company, still ?199.99, don't have a choice as I've got a bloody gift card :pinch:

You so funny John :p

No but seriously, it's not happening, and certainly not with a supermarket. This type of deal would be something to expect from a retailer like Game/HMV etc. Even then it wouldn't happen. Undercutting the competition by ?60 would prob require sexual favours ;)

..and even if by some miracle supermarkets DID offer it for ?140, you'd get the likes of Game/Gamestation employees buying up all the stock on behalf of the company an then selling them at the R.R.P in their own stores

Well if it is ?140 on release day in Sainsburys I will deffo buy one

Yeah, it's really tempting, but I have to resist. There's absolutely no point for me to buy one while my current one still works perfectly fine.

Have GAME ever sold anything cheap on release day?

Do they even have the buying power now for hardware? Most places have at least twice the number of Sainsburys as GAME stores.

If they do sell cheap anywhere, independent retailers will be buying them, like they did with MW2.

Just found this amazing offer...it's on eBay from a very reputable seller and it is:

Xbox 360 Arcade brand new

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Ethernet cable

Power cables

Component cables

All booklets

No controller or HDD unfortunately, but these are pretty cheap now.

All for ?99.99 or best offer...delivered. Just go here.

    • 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."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing. Besides, where are all the Trump epigones who were stating that the tariffs were going to paid by foreign companies and not the US citizens? …
    • 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.
    • It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
