Rumor: Xbox 360 For $100?

[wraggster]

This obviously sounds way too good to be true, so consider it rumor/unicorn-caliber fantasy at this point, but Techcrunch is saying they have a "rock solid source" telling them that mega-retailer Amazon will be selling some Xbox 360's for $100.

Yeah. $100. That isn't a typo. $100. Just to be clear, that's $100. Got it? One hundred dollars. American.

They point to the "Core System" as the model to be promotionally slashed, but don't give any other specifics about what else to expect. Keep your eyes peeled and your F5 well-oiled for maximum cheap ass gaming potential.

Wow, I hope this is true but I doubt it. Even it was $200 I would buy it. Ill guess I will have to wait and see.

edit: I am starting to think that they were going to take a 100 off the price and somewhere along the line someone got confused or thought it would be funny and said that it would only cost 100. Hopefully amazon is at least offering some kind of discount for the holiday season.

They did it. Sold out 1000 core system 360s (no hard drive) in 10 minutes. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/30796

I didn't know about it until it was too late.

Yeah we know, if you would have read the other threads you would have known that this info has already been posted.

edit: I would also add that it sold out in 10 Seconds not minutes.
