article published on 10 July, 2008
The evidence appears to be in and it looks like the anticipated US price drop to $299.99 for the Xbox 360 Pro is coming this Sunday. It will be a $50 drop from the current pricetag of $349.99.
Although there's still been no official announcement from Microsoft, scans of ads for Sunday from both Best Buy and Target have appeared online, joining a previously leaked K-Mart filer.
No doubt ... [ read the full article ]

So you're saying they go down in multiple buildings? lol jk around. On topic. The price is looking more attractive and comparing to the Wii's price i'd think this is the better bargain. But of course thats up to everybody's own preferences. Like how i think the PS3 is the better bargain when comparing it to the Xbox360 Elite. Everybody loves price drops so keep them coming =)

well on the PC version I changed the controls around q and e are 3rd and 4th weapons, f is action and on my mouse I have 2 buttons under the main mouse buttons I have them set to shift plus [ and shift plus ] I put in [ and ] as the 2nd keys for fire and aim so I now have instant access to alt fire modes.
I have learn how to move body's(they have a 2-3 sec rag doll thing if you can keep walking into them you can move them around)
Its not the best of FPSs but for me its a bit better than Quake 4 which I found barely bearable, I do love killing things with the knife :X
Just saying theres enough there to make it mediocre for a game nazi like me, at least it dose not put me to sleep like cryisis dose.....

I plan on purchasing a 360 either within this or next month. Nice to see I'll have to shell out a little less then expected.

Ok this is funny.
If i could get the core cheaper then the pro i hate to say i would go core. Because the pro all though it sounds like a good deal really isn't when your not getting the bigger hard drive with it.
And if you add it up 300.00 for a console plus the $25.00 gift card to purchase the console really isn't that good of savings.
What i find funny about the whole thing is i live here in kent washington and my local target store couldn't sell a ps3 or a xbox 360 to save there lives this is why they give people these gift cards now if you gave me 100.00 off plus a 50 doller gift card i may be interested but untill then no thank you.
