if only they would lower the price of the games. (i know i know its the money maker)
Could be a local sale too because I dont see it selling anywhere else for that , yet.
Are you sure? EB still has it for 199..
My wife got the email from blockbuster listing the xbox with the gamecube at $149. Could be a local sale because I have been looking everywhere to see if anyone else lists it at this price.

theres the deal there running
Yup thats the one. Thanks for the help...LOL.
I think it would be all over the gaming media channels by now if it were true. Maybe Blockbuster just made a mistake. But I'd like to see it happen. I bought mine as soon as they dropped to $199. At $149, Sony would have some stiff competition....and I don't think Nintendo can afford to drop any lower, unless they go $139....actually I know they can't afford to drop any more. I'm going to start a pool to see who can guess how long before Nintendo stops shipping Cubes to North America. Nintendo has one major market now, Japan. Sony and XBOX are running away with every other place...specifically Sony....but I think by next summer the XBOX catalog of games will be superior to Sony's....not in quantity....that'll never happen, but vastly in quality.

For the reasons you said , that is why Microsoft and Nintendo have ben talking. Could Mario be in the future for Xbox!!!
As for the price of $149 for the xbox, if it is a mistake or typo in the advertisment, they still have to honor it. I think I may be oging to blockbuster tomorrow to buy another box for my son's christmas gift.
Good for you Cougar, help those Xbox sales.
Well i guess there is motive to buying him the xbox for 149.00 then too...LOL!! HE WONT BE BUGGING ME "WHEN ARE YOU GONNA LET ME PLAY DAD!!!"
Hehehehehe...
True, very true. LOL
I don't see anything about this on their site. I hope it's true!

With each new price cut and rebate offer, I'm just getting more and more ****ed for buying the Xbox at launch. The real Xbox action will start November 15th with the launch of XBL, and there's not too many games that I want that are out yet anyway. I could have waited, saved enough money for 3 more games, and got a free ****ing DVD Playback Kit!

Finally someone who sees the light... I agree green,,, how fuk'd up is that,,,, I mean we were the early adopters, the ones who bought in in NOV and early DEC... what did we ever get but defective first run hardware and the chance to play a limited number (2) good games... PGR and Halo... Anyhoo I have felt more than a little used and abused by M$.Originally posted by Green Gabbit

wow glad someone is having fun with this thing... you could have played "countless hours" of any other FSP online via computer,,, but whatever dude if you feel you got your entertainment out of it thats cool....mine broke, I returned it to EB got my 225 store credit... I am just waiting for the next version f the xbox... smaller, quieter faster hard drive is just around the corner and the iveral demensions of the box should be smaller, it should lose a couple pounds as well...so when the new improved xbox finally comes out and the proce is $149 I will consider gambling my money on it again... for now I am playing PC games... best FPS's are still on PC.Originally posted by DVDGNZ

The Price Did Not Drop... That Is a Type-O!
Hidden Content ULTRA-VIOLENCE!
Yup typo it was. A $50 typo and kudos to anyone that was able to take advantage of it....LOL! I for one had printed the email and was about to go to blockbuster when I received the corrected email. Dangit! I was to late! I bet Blockbuster got swamped though the evening that ad came out to all email recipients. Wish I could have watched those phones ring off the hook.
I never had regretted paying 300 for my xbox...That money is long gone, and if you didn't spend 300 on the box you would have spent it on something else anyway! Honestly the 300 I paid is the best investment in my entire life!Originally posted by Green Gabbit
