Rumor: Xbox 360 Arcade to be offered with $100 gift card at Walmart

by Xav de Matos { Nov 3rd 2009 at 7:15PM }

According to cellphone-camera equipped tipsters at Kotaku, Walmart will apparently offer a $100 gift card with the purchase of an Xbox 360 Arcade unit this Saturday. Supposedly confirmed by Cheap Ass Gamer, the promotion also includes a $148 dollar Sony-branded Blu-ray player and will run until November 13, or while supplies last. If the rumor does prove to be true, we'd recommend waiting in line now in case something happens to your current Xbox. Apparently there's no telling how long those things will last.

Sounds like a good deal but i already own a jasper arcade and a falcon pro. Im going to just use the money to buy a ps3 slim this holiday season.

Walmart's fiscal year starts Feb 1 so week 41 of the fiscal year is Nov 15. Have a nice day.

Kev (XBL: ksiddique) @ Nov 3rd 2009 11:33PM

My mistake. Fiscal week 41 would *end* on Nov 15.

Wow. My 360 just died after 3 long years (and it WASN'T a red ring!) and I was hoping I'd have enough money left over to buy one this weekend... With this deal I will for sure be able to afford it!

It seems like just when things start to look dark, a light at the end of the tunnel starts to shine through.

Is that desperation that I sensed?

I sure hope they are FRESH Arcades, and not something Wal-Mart had left over from the RROD days.

Perhaps they need a close look while waiting to check out...

Good Deal for people that haven't bought a current gen system so far.
