(closing stores do not honor clearance prices).

I think that is a YMMV because I got LoZ:TP for GC at like $10.xx. At the time it was 40% off the clearance price of $16.96. I also got HttC 360 for $5.xx, both were supposed to be a lot more. I would definitely get something scanned just in case.

I would nearly kill for one. :(

HDMI cable is standard. Can even use the same one from your PS3 (if you have one of those). Seen em around for ~$10, or get one at monoprice.

Not completely true. The Xbox 360 can't get surround sound without the Microsoft HDMI cable unless you have a receiver that supports HDMI in.

Retarded, but there you are.

Well, that's not really true either.

You can use the standard optical out, but you'll need to break open the grey plastic part of the component plug that plugs into your 360.

You'll have both your component cable and the hdmi cable plugged into the 360 (but the red, green, blue video cable won't be plugged into anything or the red and white audio cable)

HDMI by default doesnt carry surround sound. It only has the bandwidth for 2.1 or so i was led to believe.

Ok... Does Circuit City open on Christmas?

You serious??

[GioSH]

Yes I'm Serious. I knw it's probably a retarded question but it doesn't hurt to ask.

There are none left in my area. I think I'm going to bite the bullet and just use some of my Best Buy giftcards to soften the blow. I literally have no space on my 20gb hard drive and have had to delete stuff to make room for my Rock Band track packs.

HDMI does indeed carry surround sound-- it's optical that has issues. Optical connections only have the bandwidth for stereo PCM or compressed surround (DTS/Dolby Digital). HDMI was designed to carry surround sound in all of its various formats (LPCM 5.1, DTS-HD, TrueHD, etc, etc)

HDMI version 1.3 was designed to carry surround sound in all of its various formats (LPCM 5.1, DTS-HD, TrueHD, etc, etc)

Fixed

Hey guys,

Is there any ad or physical image I could print off showing that CC has dropped the price to $99? I went to Best Buy earlier today and the representative said they couldn't honor the deal because they could find no official mention of it online (the CC website still has the 60 gig for $99 even) and, because of how busy they were, were too busy to call CC to confirm it.

[VxExLxVxExT]

it actually dropped from $99 to $79 at CC, at least it did last time i checked, and good luck trying to get ANYONE to match that...

[Doomtime]

Any chance you can use a scanned receipt?

Yeah, it'd be worth a shot though. The lady at the BB seemed to legitimately try and find an official mention of the price somewhere, but it's just posted. I'd really like to pick up an Arcade + 120 gig HD as opposed to the Pro.

Any chance you can use a scanned receipt?

Anyone know the answer to this? I'd guess it wouldn't be acceptable, but you never know...

[itsdrea]

Does CC still sell the 120GB HD for $99 (or $79 for some people?).
Any in Riverside, CA?

[naiku]

deal is 2 months old. i highly doubt there is any in stores atm. j
just make some calls but dont bet the farm on finding any.

[Doomtime]

I bought 2 of them about 2 weeks ago. Got the last one, then they restocked with one more a few days later. Bought that one too. Both at $80!

[YellowSnowPal]

Too bad. I'd still like a 120 HD for Netflix, but for $79. When it's over $110 then my old 1st Gen 20GB HD X-Box looks less appealing and a Pro starts calling my name.

Even when they restock it's $80?!
So it's basically CC retail price.

[whodat]

I called CC before Christmas and most locations near me wouldn't even pick up the phone. I finally got someone on the line and he was very helpful. He looked up the UPC and checked stock at his store and surrounding stores. No one had the hard drive in stock though. Damn.
