Xbox 360 on pre-order in England! Game and console priceso.0

No idea if this is old news or not but it is new to me..the console itself is cheaper than most thought at just over £200 but the games..bah rip off at £50 each..they better drop those prices soon cause i sure as hell wont be buying one..£50 is alot..to much considering you're supposed to fork out 200 pounds for it before hand.

280 POUNDS?!?
I live in america, but that is a lotta dough.
One pound is worth about $1.50 USD.
So omg thats like $400!!!

*HOW* is it outragous? The ps2 went for £300 pounds..and this is the same price..yet better. :S But of course it lacks a lot..like backwards compatiblity..but if you pay out for the £400 (now that IS a rip off) you can get that to. My suggestion? Just wait. The ps3 is going to come out and i gauretee the xbox360 will drop prices..just to make the ps3 drop and lose a LOT of money. No idea about the nintendo..no ones even seen the thing yet. It will probably be the cheapest..and most unsuccessfull. Im not buying a new console till 06 xmas..then all 3 should be out..prices will be at there cheapest and there iwll be a good selection of games out allowing me to make a good decision on what console to get. Unlike everyone else who decides to buy one the very first day..it just doesn't make sense.

The xbox 360 will cost a lot in the U.S. I think $400 is a reasonable price becuase of how powerful it is and all of its features. It can do way more then original xbox.

so what, it is still like going to make me broke when i buy it lol...
