    Very very tempting indeed.
    I'd grab one straight after the price drop... if SFIV wasn't coming out on PC

    £169 for the pro, very tempting. Do we know when Woolworths are going to drop the price as their website still shows the old prices.

    Interesting news =) Best of all, Woolworths is an expensive shop when it comes to games/consoles..so if they are offering it for £169, we'll likely see it for £130 or so in other shops.

    That's just not fair, i've held off buying one for so long..when they bring it to that price though, its almost like they are forcing me to buy!

    I thought Woolies were trying to get a bit more competitive on consoles, such as the Wiiworths promotion.

    I've actually got a few bargains in there of late, picked up some ds games for a tenner which were still fairly new releases at the time!

    A price cut on the 360 will mean I can persuade even more of my friends to get a 360

    Well yes like any retailer they will always do specials to try and compete - but in general they are more expensive as they stick to the RRP for the most part.
