Saw this when walking to my bus stop @ DSE george st CBD.
$229 is a good price if you can find one!! Better than the JB deal! :D
I'm guessing the bundle is the same as this one:

This is compatible, you will just need a power cord plugged from the Kinect into the wall (the Kinect can draw power from the S but not the old 360's)
Is alright, but JB offers Forza 3 and ODST instead for 20 bucks more… I'd pay for them instead. (Which is why I did)
anyone wants the Forza 3 and ODST games? i just bought the bundle last week. the games are still sealed in the box, never opened. Is $30 ok? I am in sydney and can do free delivery around olympic park. Tel:0422 871 668
Tempting, but I think I'll wait for the new slim model that will replace the Xbox 360 Arcade.
Don't think Microsoft thought of one yet. Like windows, they wanted to simplify it, so there's only one type not many versions of it.
Yes they have, there will be an Xbox 360 'Slim' arcade SKU. It will likely be out later this year along with Kinect.
Early owners have reported overheating issues with the Slim. I think I'll go for this Elite, seeing that my friend has got one and done heavy gaming with it in a TV bench enclosure without overheating issues.
Nice deal…although i agree with Alzori, think the JBhifi games are a bit better. Good find !
Is this jtaggable?
God no.
EDIT: Why did I get voted down for answering his question?
^
this isn't a smart or informed comment. I advise readers to ignore this troll.
haha i shouldve known this wouldnt go down well with the diehard xbox majority who view this page. took the plunge coz someone needs to inform you guys about the better alternatives out there. its worth each and every negative vote.
What makes you think people are unaware of PS3?
@venu: …and some people are looking for the best of both worlds? It's a great deal for somebody that already owns a PS3. Back to school kiddo.
Is that your version of a "I know you are but what am I" retort? Looks like you have nothign sensible or intelligent to say, and the vast majority of Ozbargainers seem to agree. FYI, I don't even own an Xbox.
In your logic the PS3 is better then the Wii in every single way, yet it continues to outsell both the 360 and PS3.
@zhenjie: vast majority of ozbargainers? baseless assumption.
Wii sells more because it targets a wider audience, including young and old. Both the 360 and Ps3 have a smaller target audience. Also, wii has a more competitive pricing to suit these age group. Doesnt mean wii is better than ps3 or xbox though. I thought this was very obvious, but it seems it isn't.
In my logic, i think PS3 is better than XBOX. Ive used both, and i dont see whats the appeal about the xbox. 'coldblair' comments below is the only sensible comment here. Indeed some people will like ps3, and some will like xbox. i just voiced my opinion because i wanted to, and to see what response i would get. it seems you dont have anything intelligent to say zhenjie.@venu: Maybe you need to go back then. Your posts would kind of, be ok for a child, but if you're an adult, it's just embarrassing for you. Most adults would have more important things to do than protect the reputation of a video-game system on a forum. Time to grow up maybe?
fanboys = fail
I dont even own a Xbox. fail.
had a ps3, swapped to xbox360.. much happier now. Your comments are pointless. Some will like the 360, some will like PS3.
xbox live is way better than psn, and you will find in time, people will get more use out of kinect, than ps3's move, although i will get both
I guess if your console rrod'd this would be ok, but if your starting out it kind of sucks
I bought my 360 2nd hand on ebay and got better games for not much morewhat do you base that judgement on?
so you think a second hand xbox from ebay, that you payed more for, is a better deal than a sealed, new xbox from a retailer (warranty)?
perhaps he wanted to Jtag an older box.
for about $80 more, i got 4 games i sold on ebay for $50, get to admire a nice red shell and got nearly a years entertainment from it. So yes i do think thats better than the sealed bundle from dick smith posted above. If it had forza 3 and odst, it would be different
online gameplay, but thats just my opinion

It's currently $249 on the DSE website (store price).
So much for price transparency.
I doubt printing a camera snap of a sign would help my cause.
They must have jacked the price up $20 because of demand, because I don't think they can advertise different price points for same product in their other stores, unless clearance items.http://www.dse.com.au/cgi-bin/dse.storefront/4c212e76067aafc…
Can anyone confirm if these are JTAG compatible? or let us know what the manufacture date on the console is please.
it is not jtagable, mfd: MAR 2010
Currently I don't have XBOX, should I look for this model or wait for the one that is compatible with "Project Natal / Kinect"?
