XBOX + mod + 10 games
 

Is $350 US a good deal for a modded Xbox and 10 games of my choice? Should I go for it, or hold back a little longer? Thanks for the input.

10 games of your choice? Yah, it's a good deal. The xbox costs 200USD and games costs 30-50usd.

If the games are copied and not originals, then that is a horible deal.

I should note this is in Taiwan
PS2 and XBOX are still $250 US here
They are back-ups of course
Why is it a horrible deal?

Backups are lower quality. They have sound skips and tend to get the "dirty disk" error often. Yes, it is a good deal if you don't have a dvd burner yourself, but I wouldn't follow up on that deal. Getting games for free and selling them for $15-$20 each is horrible.

The mod and chip cost money too and the backups play perfectly.

well, it's a good deal. But i'm kinda against selling piracy. So i tried to pursuade you to not get it. But I guess it didn't work.

In light of the troubles regarding the dashboards and XBLive, I think I'm gonna wait until the next generation of chips are out and the network is up and running so I won't have to worry about Microsoft's shade. OH well, not too many good games released yet anyway. ;)

update: decided not to wait again :)
pick it up Saturday!
