Sadly I can't help you. Not only do I not know where your live, therefore not being able to advise you (even if you reside in Australia, I couldn't tell you) because I also don't take notice of the elite package because it doesn't interest me.

But, if I had to make a ballpark guess, maybe Myer (if your in Australia) sell it on their onw, I don't really know at all. Trade in value? Wouldn't be more than 500, that's if you take it to an EB..

I was excited about Fable 1... but that game was such a terrible let down in my opinion that I can't get myself excited over the 2nd one at all.

As for Tom Clancy? Haven't been a fan of the those games... I dislike his books, and I dislike the movies based on the books, and hence I dislike the games inspired by both him and his books.

Maybe Force Unleashed is the only 360 title I'm looking forward to for next year?

I only hope it gives the player something new and fresh to do.

Am I the only one who found the console versions too repeatitive?

Mass Effect is one of the most enjoyable games I've played on 360.... I think it rates better than Halo 3, which isn't hard, considering the story in ME makes Halo's story look like child scribble.

Not GOTY for me, but close.

And on the topic of the ending.... Very Impressive!

Not at all. As people have already said, one of the best investment you can make in gaming at the moment.

Just ensure you get an extend warranty to cover yourself if you get that red ring issue. But yeah, keep it cool and make sure it isn't in a confinded space (I sound like a manual)

just so everyone knows, resident evil 5 isn't slated to come out next year. if we are lucky we will get it in early 09.wreak

Hmm. Then that means I have nothing to look forward to next year... at least concerning the 360.
