XBox 360

[missy55]

Hi, I really need your help! My boyfriend has asked for an Xbox360 for Christmas but I don't know the difference between the Core system and the full system - apart from around£100!!
I'm guessing the full system is the best option but is the core system worth it? Not sure I can stretch to £300!
Thanks
Missy

I do not know which is which either, but if you buy him the cheaper he will no doubt complain.

Ask him to be reasonable, tell him you want a £400 ring.(Then see how he likes it)

But to be honest I think £300 is too much for a present for your BF

I moved it back, since its not a question about the workings, just about buying one

Nah, the ring I want is only £150

Normally I wouldn't spend £200 on him for Xmas as its his birthday in December as well but I'm hoping it will be an engagement present! We'll see!

I'd pay £200 if the system is going to be worth it.

basically, only buy the premium console.
the core is literally the unit and a single wire controller.
the core has a hard drive, wireless controller and the high def lead.
you need to buy all three anyway so save the money now and buy the premium.
also the premium has a silver dvd tray.. so it can be spotted easier!!

i hope it helps...
