As it says on the tin.

Not bad considering two of the games are Halo3 and NfS: Shift

Pretty good deal. I have heard on the grapevine that at some point they are just going to have Arcades and Elites and do away with "Premiums" all together

[pscott]

They will eventually kill the arcades as well

If you look down the amazon page, other companies are doing it for £175.00, which is well good isn't it

[oalcock]

Yep, Just noticed I have read incorrectly, two free games when you buy from amazon.co.uk, £199 is still very good isn't it

Never play mine anymore, only bought it for Grand Theft when it came out on XBox 360, now i just play PC because its much faster. I find console games are a bit limited and damn its hard to use a joypad to play a shootem up game. I can't get used to it compared to a mouse. Driving type games are cool for console though.

I find myself torn between 360 and PC. FPS and strategy games on PC tend to be much better with the exception of Halo that just seems to "work" on a controller. Racing and sports games tend to be better on console.

 

I've also heard GTA IV is pretty buggy on PC

it is i have it for PC, and on the X2 AMD with a ATI HD4850 i cant get it to last more than 5 mins without dieing in some way, i fix one error only for another to take its place.

 

I have a xb360 aswell (which i have GTA4 for aswell) i like it, i used to agree with the shooter thing but after a few hours of HALO3 and CoD4 im just as good as i am on the PC

I do think the 360 controller is very well designed. If you get sensitivity how you like it on the right analog stick shooters work brilliantly. Still not quite as good as keyboard and mouse though.
