where can i get the cheapest x-box/ps2/ or game cube out there that? also, any of them come with a free game?


also, can someone tell me stores? i cant buy stuff online
 
new cubes that run 99 come with metroid prime and the prime 2 demo disc.

Used ones are only 69.99 at EB

I personally would not buy a PS2 or Xbox used and would buy the extended warranty with both
 
Current Generation videogame console prices are fairly inflexible.

Save the back of a truck or a shady pawnshop, the prices you see at most brick and mortar stores for the consoles are going to be very, very similar.
 
Most big name retailers have some sort of bundle going on every console most of the time. Some, like the Metroid bundle, are everywhere since it comes all the way from Nintendo.

The warehouse stores like CostCo are pretty much guaranteed to always have a bundle that gets you a second controller (or accessories for portables) and one or two games.
 
well im thinking of getting the 69.99 gamecube thats preowned cause its the cheapest console i have seen( new generation) when i buy it, is that all i need (besides the game)? do i need to buy other stuff for the gamecube? also, it says its Refurbished. whats that?

also, are there any play where a can get a cheap moded ps2 or xbox? sorry if this is illeagle or not

am a noob

Okay, well the refurbished bit means that it's used but it's pretty much like new. Besides the cube, you gotta get a memory card (any gamecube memory card will do.) As far as a cheap modded PS2 or XBox - Don't bother with the XBox modding since (I'm assuming you'd use it for imports) it has no worthy imports. The PS2 I'd just buy normal and then get a solderless modchip from modchips.net or something.

its good that xbox is worth modding, xbox is the best console to mod because its so universal. you can get a used console, from ebgames or something like that, check the drive and make sure it isnt a thomson, modchip is 40 max for the best. soldering for xbox is as simple as it gets.

so its worth the modding if your going to do anything like that playing backuyps and stuff
 
from what i have heard,modding consoles is illegal because the consoles are copyrighted and that would be tampering with their property. but don't take my word for it because i am not positive,but you might want to do some research on it before modding.

*sigh* so if they copyright my chair, I can't tamper with it? Its not illegal.

If you really want to save money, buy a Dreamcast. Its still my favorite console and has tons and tons of great games.
 
ahh a dreamcast?!?!?!? boo! boo! lol

also, i think modding is illeagle. they took off all the mod chips on that japanese super game store (i forgot the name)

also, i live near stones town. does anyone know a good store i can go to to get some pre owned cheaped stuff for gc? also, cheapest gc i have seen now is from eb thats 69.99 preowned

1) Dreamcast is amazing. It has all the good fighting games - most of them are little known such as Project Justice.

2) Modding is not illegal, it's just discouraged by companies because it allows one to play bootleg games. It's legally okay. You're thinking of the store Lik Sang I think which is in Hong Kong or something - not Japan (it does make a difference where it's located.) Anyway, if modding was illegal, then there wouldn't be nearly as many stores out there with modchips as there are now.
 
[quote name='narutofan']are there any other bundles besides metroid?[/quote]

As the holidays get closer you will see more bundles from stores, but I highly recommend the Metroid bundle. Metroid Prime is a great game.
