Xbox 360 Price Drop Makes Co-Op Gaming More Affordable

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo September 5th, 2008 at 9:02 AM    


It's not often a console gets a price cut, and in the case of the Xbox 360 there's only been one in it's lifetime, and it was $20. Today though there's a major price drop of $50-$80 across the board for the console making the cheapest version available for $199.

Why should you care about this? Well according to our statistics page the Xbox 360 is far and away the leader of offering cooperative games with 87, and when you factor in Xbox Live Arcade it brings that number up to 137 co-op games.

It's never been a better time to pick up an Xbox 360, so use the above links to support Co-Optimus!

We'll be buying a second, I wanted one with HDMI and the disc drive on the one we have now sounds like a rocket taking off. It's a nice little media center extender, too.

I found an HDMI cable at Ross (of all places) for $10 and popped it on my 360 Pro. Now all is good.

You can find HDMI cables online for under $10 pretty much anytime, just don't shop at your known retailers since the price is gouged. And since quality doesn't make a difference since the signal is digital, you don't have to go with some "Monster No interference gold plated super insulated HDMI" cables for $200. Just go with a no name HDMI. My HDMI hooked up to my PS3 was $5 if I remember right.

Anyone know if you buy the arcade if you could pop your existing (20gb from old pro in my case) harddrive into it?

My 360 is getting old and is close to not being under warranty. $200 is a pretty affordable way to get back up and running if my 360 dies.

Yeah you can. The hard drive can go in any 360.

I never talk when I play online on COD. No one really says anything worth listening to, or no one talks whatsoever.
