We're weeks away from Black Friday, but the bargains have already begun! We're guessing that a lot of you will be seeking out good deals on video games this year. It's not too surprising, since that seems to be at the top of so many wishlists -- and not just the ones that the kids are making!
What is surprising is today's Gold Box Deal from Amazon. The online retailer is looking to kick off your holiday shopping season with a deal on the Xbox 360 E 250GB Kinect Holiday Value Bundle.
This package includes everything you'd need to start a grudge match right on Christmas morning. Even better, the box is currently available for 40 percent off the list price, making your purchase just $239.99. That discounted price even includes free shipping! Find out more about this deal on Amazon's Gold Box page:
This one purchase includes everything you'd need for your Xbox 360 setup. It comes with a slender Xbox 360 console, which has a 250GB hard drive for all of your games and other goodies, as well as built-in WiFi. The package also includes the Kinect Sensor for hands-free, full-body gaming. If you'd prefer to get your hands a little sweaty, there's also a wireless controller.
Other features include a composite AV cable and a month's worth of Xbox Live, which will provide streaming games, music, movies and TV shows with 1080p and 5.1 surround sound (you'll need to supply an HDMI cable for that, though).
Oh yeah -- and the box also comes with games, so you can actually play a little something right away. The box kicks off your gaming collection with Kinect Sports: Season Two, Kinect Adventures, and Forza Horizon. To find out more about this package, check out Amazon's product page:
Just make sure that when you buy this bundle, you are buying from Amazon -- and not one of the retailer's third-party merchants. Amazon is offering the deal price, as well as free shipping. However, you'd better buy this up soon! Since it's a Gold Box Deal, Amazon is only offering the discount through the end of the day or until the retailer runs out of stock.
