Xbox 360: PGR3 + Wireless Controller £20

ok, slightly schnide but heres what you need to do.

Go to PCworlds website, click on the xbox bundle link (the one with Perfect Dark Zero and Saints Row) and next to that there is a box which says Add PGR3 + Wireless Controller for another £20.

Add it to the cart, then go in and delete the xbox. The game and controller are still there for £20. Just went to the store to pick mine up, no questions asked. Also have another on order as a backup in case the store pickup didnt go through.

Controller easily goes for £20-25 on ebay, leaving you with effectively a free game and up to a fiver.

Like I said, a little schnide but........hey, its PC World :D

Thats the one.

Hope you get it.

I am keeping 1 PGR3, selling both controllers on ebay and taking the other PGR3 to game to see what the trade in value is.

PC World will probably get in trouble for this as that pack is only to be sold with a new Xbox 360.

Also, the copy of PGR3 that comes in the pack has a huge "NOT TO BE SOLD SEPERATELY" across it and no barcode on the back so most stores probably won`t take it in for trade.

"NOT TO BE SOLD SEPERATELY"

Mine didnt, the poor ignorant fools just went out to the shop floor and picked up one of each from the rack, scanned them both in (£82.98 I think they came up as) and then proceeded to overwrite the price with £20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have another on order for home delivery, that if despatched, and it does have the message emlazoned across is, will be the keeper while the other goes to trade or ebay.

Fantastic.
