I just cannot imagine the price going up again in 2 months time.
They need to just cut the price. It is to high.
What about the core 4GB model? Does it go down to $149 from $199????
"it is a temporary promotion to ruin the WiiU launch"
Fixed XD
lol, Microsoft is greedy, they can't even make a full out price cut.
Suddenly that Halo 4 bundle becomes even more of a great value.
Not great value at all. $350 for an Xbox 360 this late in the generation is a rip off.
It should be a permanent price cut to slow down the momentum of the Wii U.
that's expensive this late in the gen.
Just saved me 50.00 towards COD BL OP 2
