I have an xbox 360 with Hard drive, Two wireless controllers, Headset, Modern warfare 2 (70), Forza 3 Limited Edition (90) and Forza 2.

The two games new are 150 alone. So its like getting the xbox for 50 bucks. Everything works great. I am FIRM on 200.

Used xbox's are pretty dicey due to quality issues. if you are the original owner you send it in and get one back within a week. I don't know about a used one. The thing that jumped out at me is there selling it with a game that just came out like 2 weeks ago? (MW2)

Some of these kids finish games in a few days though. Maybe it was stolen, and he's trying to get rid of it ASAP.

With xbox live they play a COD game online with their buds for months and never even use the single player option. Yeah I'd say stolen is pretty likely.  ;)

I ended up buying this. The seller was a kid no older than 19 who was an airman at Travis AFB. He said he got burned on a prior CL transaction selling something else. Apparently, that buyer paid him with counterfeit bills, and he got busted when he tried purchasing something with the bills (interrogated by US SS agents and everything). He brought a counterfeit marker pen with him this time.  ;D

The publishers even admitted single player campaign is like 6-8 hours at best for remotely skilled players....
