[Official UK] Xbox 360 Special Offers & Deals


Recommended Posts

Warrington, half an hour away.

Just to get in the courier depot debate....

UPS have a depot 20mins away from my house, and another 1hour 15mins away.....I'll let you guess which one they decide to use :pinch:

Luckily I haven't had to pick up a parcel yet, and I guess after a stern phonecall they would re-route the parcel to the nearest depot.

They take the money when you order.

Also, their preorder prices don't stay around for long from what I remember. Don't expect to wait on this and then preorder 2 weeks before launch at this price. Most likely they'll have an allocation of units they can offer this price to and then they'll bump it back up.

So either take the gamble & order now, or wait until closer to launch for a possible lower price elsewhere.

Edit: Current selling price valid until 23/07/2010

Just for reference, the game comes out on September 24th and the next best price currently is £36.99 at Coolshop.

On the lookout for a cheap usb mic for the xbox to use with rock band, only interested if its under a tenner rofl.gif

Here you go. ;) I bought this mic, and it's brilliant! The sound quality is surprisingly good. The only minor niggle is the d-pad is a bit fiddly, but it's not that hard to get used to.

Cheers man, found it on amazon for ?6.95, turns out my gfs brother has a rock band one he doesn't need anymore. The standard ones just as good but without controls on I'm guessing.

And you can use a controller with the standard RB mic for that yeh?

Thanks +1 imaginary rep.

Yeah, you use a controller with a mic, the only exception being the MadCatz M.I.C. I linked, as that's got a controller built in.

As for quality, that's probably a matter of opinion. The MadCatz one is fairly quieter than the official one (which is a Logitech one), but on top of that, there's less chance of distortion when singing loudly.

    • 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.
