White Xbox 360 Wireless Controller: ~34 delivered

That should be the cheapest we've seen a genuine controller. The Game had one for $37 I think.

Other Deals: Bioshock 2 on PS3 was ~42 delivered. Resonance of Fate is around ~53 delivered.

Note: These deals are part of Zavvi's Mega Weekend sale. They have 80% on most their products. I think the games that I listed here, I'm confident that they're good deals. Valkyria Chronicles, you might be able to get one around the same price from eBay. The rest of them are good deals.

NOTE Special Mention: Ozbargainer tantryl believes the controller I listed here is a bootleg. Please be aware when purchasing. The word official is missing from the title which COULD potentially mean this controller could cause your Xbox 360 to spontaneously get the RROD. That's one of the possibilities. Credit again to tantryl for diverting the focus from official/unofficial talk to vaginas.

    Don't think that's legit MS one.

    This is.

      What makes you say that's not legit?

        So that one's not legit either?

          Dude, you're basing your judgment on the fact that the word official was missing from the title?

          To that end these aren't legit either:
          http://www.game.com.au/xbox-360-black-controller/xbox-360/B4…
          http://www.ebgames.com.au/xbox360-140094-Xbox-360-Wireless-C…

          They clearly lack the word 'official'.

          • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:28

            @ragflan: Different site. The fact the word official appears in some controller ads, yet doesn't in others, is no mistake. It is because they are not official. There is no other valid reason.

            • ragflan on 02/04/2010 - 23:34

              @g00ch: Dude, in that sense Dick Smith, Game, Ebgames, Big W and all our local stores are missing the word 'official'. I find it funny that you're basing your judgment on the lack of one word. The other link provided doesn't even have a picture or a proper description yet that's the official one?

              • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:36

                @ragflan: I take your point, but all those stores don't have two links - one to an "official" controller, and one to a controller. They just have the one link. Therefore you can't draw an analogy.

                All I'm saying is the word official isn't there accidentally. And I think you should be wary of that. Not trying to knock your deal at all, I really rate it but it's definitely a risk.

                • ragflan on 02/04/2010 - 23:40

                  @g00ch: The so called 'official' link that tantryl put up has no proper description and not even a picture of the product. The description provided on the links I provided is synonymous with Game, Dick Smith and other local stores. I'm saying that the link tantryl provided clearly looks to be the one with the typo.

                    @ragflan: Fair enough.

                    I actually agree. The "official" one looks more like a mistake, and the description of the one you link in the OP is identical to official ones. It seems highly unlikely it'd be anything other than the MS device.

          • [Deactivated] on 02/04/2010 - 23:38

            @ragflan: Whoa, nice triple response flurry. Impressive.

            As I said, I "think" it isn't the legit one. I have no proof. I'm putting it out there and letting people decide for themselves.

            The fact that there are two options and one has official in the title while the other doesn't does tend me to believe that of the two, the more expensive one with official in the title is likely the only official one. Are you contending they simply have two listings for the same item and are charging extra for the change in product description?

            • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:40

              @[Deactivated]: I agree. I think that's his contention but I can't see how one can arrive at that conclusion. Expressio unius est exclusio alterius.

              @[Deactivated]: Subtle sarcasm. Impressive as well.

              I have no idea why they have two separate links. But like you said. It's up to the people to decide. I'm not a representative for Zavvi therefore I get no profit if you purchase neither do I make a loss. I thought it's a decent deal and I posted it.

              If you have any legitimate grounds for calling it an 'unofficial' product besides the missing word which makes it similar to the listings on Australian game sites, I'd love to hear it.

              On second thought, I leave it to the mods to decide. If the mods believe this controller is unofficial, please edit the post.

                @ragflan: The subtle sarcasm thing was aimed at tantryl.

                • ragflan on 02/04/2010 - 23:51

                  @ragflan: All I'm saying is, Zavvi is much like Game or Ebgames or Game UK. If i see two controllers on Game AU one which was 5 dollars cheaper but looks like a current update listing and one with a missing the word and what looks like an outdated listing, I'd take my chances and go for the 5 dollar cheaper one considering Game doesn't sell bootleg Xbox controllers.

                  @ragflan: I really don't know why you're taking this so personally, as if I want to put you down or something. I'm genuinely worried it isn't official and people will get a cheap rip-off. However as stated in an above reply, I actually agree with you.

                  I don't agree that you should put quite that much sand in your vagina though.

                    @[Deactivated]: DUDE… Take it easy man. You made a comment, and I responded to it. I'm not taking it personally man. In fact, I JUST said that 2 comments ago. I'm just justifying what I think is legitimate. That vagina remark was totally unnecessary.

                    I'll put it up in the deal, alright? Can't we all just get along?

                    • ragflan on 02/04/2010 - 23:59

                      @ragflan: I put your concerns in the post. Ok? Now can we relax about the unofficial or official crap?

                        @ragflan: Just read your comments above and re-read mine. It does appear like I'm putting sand in my vagina although that was not my intention. Dammit.

              • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:49

                @ragflan: Good call. Do you know if the DVDs on Zavvi will work here mate?

                • ragflan on 02/04/2010 - 23:53

                  @g00ch: I'm not sure dude. I think UK is Region 2 and Australia is Region 4. I only bought Blu-rays off Zavvi and they work here. I think someone else can confirm this.

                  • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:53

                    @ragflan: Cheers. I'm off for the night, have a good one mate.

                  • [Deactivated] on 02/04/2010 - 23:54

                    @ragflan: Yup.

                    They do Region 2 DVDs and Region B Blu-Rays.

                    Aussie is Region 4 for DVDs and Region B for Blu-Rays.

                    So you'll need a region free DVD player or AnyDVD on your computer or the likes.

                      @[Deactivated]: Yeap there you go. Thank you tantryl. I didn't know that either.

  • g00ch on 02/04/2010 - 23:24

    The omission of the word "official" in the two you posted ragflan lends itself to the conclusion that they are not official. I don't think they omitted the word official accidentally therefore it is safe to infer they are unofficial.

      I factored in delivery costs into the prices of the items. The controller is 17.95 + 2.45. That's 20.4 pounds. Which, Google tells me, is ~34 dollars.

      • pepitovfr on 03/04/2010 - 00:06

    It could also be just a double entry for the product. Perhaps they allocated a certain number for their Easter sales and created a separate entry for it to make it easier to sell just the right number of stock.

    thehut.com has similar prices ( I think they're both owned by the same company).

    but thehut has 1euro off for 10euro orders , 2 for 20, etc.

    Does the x-box controller comes with the usb cable?
    like this one?

    cause I would like to get them if it is playable on PC.

  • lonewolf on 04/04/2010 - 09:18

    The wireless controller actually works out to 38.50$ after currency conversion and then most credit cards charge a certain % for purchasing in another currency. So the final price probably works out to over 40$ sadly. Still not a bad deal but probably not good enough for me to take up. IF it was 34$AU delivered i definitely would have taken it up.

  • dsm ninja on 04/04/2010 - 13:22

    So are these Genuine microsoft Controllers? Same as you get with the consoles?

  • RoninTenkai on 04/04/2010 - 17:14

    For anyone who is interested there is a 2 pound discount code that expires on the 5/4/10 (not sure if it is UK time), when spending 20 pounds or more.

    Discount code = MVC2
