Gamestop is offering a trade-in special to upgrade to the Xbox slim. A great deal if you have the original consoles (especially the ones without HDMI), not so much if you have one of the newer elite models. You can see the website for details.

I might go that route if Amazon doesn't get on the ball and ship mine to me, They kept bumping the in stock day back every day since Thursday, now it says they are in stock but it still hasn't shipped. WTF?!?
I know I'm just being impatient since I pre-ordered it on the 15th but still...

Lots of dudes are getting Blur for 20 bucks because various stores have it on sale for 40 and they're stacking with this coupon:

I have a 20g HDMI one; Worth it?

Well put it this way, I took my first 360 in and for it a 20gig, 3 controllers and a Wi-fi adapter that I'd forgotten I had because I never used it, I netted $234.16

The Gamestop's around here have tons on back order because soooo many people are jumping on this deal.
I probably won't get one until mid July, which is cool because my Elite is still chugging along nicely.

Strangely the only thing they didn't take in trade was an HDMI adapter that had their name stamped on it.

So $234.16 toward $299.00, yeah worth it.

I think I will net ~ $130 for my system and HD... will I be able to increase that by 10% with my Gamestop Card?

 

[Aragorn]

^ I don't think so, since it's a special deal specifically for trading in old for new.

Actually my store did increase it with an Edge card.

Last week Target was giving a $20 gift card (good for anything in the store) when you bought two video game items of $39.99 and higher. It's extended to this week. Nothing special, but if you were looking to get a $50/4000 points card or an Xbox Live subscription anyway, this is pretty nice.

 

[Mr Light]

They're also selling the new Prince of Persia game for $20 this week; isn't this game only a month old?!

 

[Aragorn]

The game was thrown together just to coincide with the movie. It's basically a rehash.

Bayonetta is $20 at Best Buy this week in an unadvertised sale.

 

[Mr Light]

On Amazon, buying Halo Reach or Fable III gets you $20 off your next game... Assassin's Creed Brotherhood $10 off... there's a bunch.
