ASDA finally playing catch up and reducing the price. Good if you don't need a bundle and want an Xbox for a pretty cheap price. Also great for colleagues with double discount!
Should be national as price change came down from head office.
Happy shopping!

Xbox one and xbox one s are there main variants. Xbox one will play all the same games as xbox except it can't output at 4k. If you've got a 4k TV and some 4k material that you can watch then the XBox one s would be the better choice. It can upscale games to 4k also which the older xbox one cannot do.
That's the main difference, the one s is a very cheap UHD Blu-ray player essentially with gaming capability to boot. It's also significantly smaller, like 40% smaller but looks tiny compared to the old console!
The old xbox comes in 500gb, and 1tb variants but if you need more storage you can just attach a portable hard drive.
There is also the elite which is the old model, it has a 1tb hybrid drive which gives a mild speed improvement with booting times.

It wouldn't surprise me if a retailer went really low just to raise the headcount in the store...and hope they sell a more expensive package when stock is depleted. But at a £100...nah, £150 is the lowest it will ever go with some awful game.

Thanks.
A bit expensive then. Add a decent game for circa £42 and you are then close to the new console model bundles. Good del for Asda staff if they can get it on diiscount.

Add gears of war for £29.99 and you're at £179.
Chanchi posted a deal for 4 games for £179 this week so if you were planning on getting any games with this console it would work out cheaper doing the bundle. Even if you plan on selling the games!

I suspect that we are moving to an era with new consoles coming out every year from MS and Sony.
They are looking to milk people with minor incremental upgrades every year IMPO - marketed as if they are must have features. Some will figure this is about to happen. Others will never figure it out.
mudstuff
15 Nov 161#12
Every year? It's been nearly 3 years for the One S and PS4 Pro and they are both playing all the same games so there's no NEED to upgrade, only want. Scorpio will also be backwards compatible (and Sony would be stupid not to follow suit with the PS5). Every year :confused:

Is this deal everywhere? as i literally just left ASDA at Cardiff a couple of hours ago and was looking for XB1 prices, they didnt even have these 500GB on sale?
Mikey91 to haritori
15 Nov 161#16
Best to ask if they have any stock out the back. The old consoles were removed from the Xbox chart a while back so more than likely any old stock will be shoved out back.

Yeah I know, but even if you just want one game like gears 4 then you've got the same deal as this.
Anything better than just gears is fairly likely to happen in a bundle.
That was just an extreme example.

Don't see the point of buying this as you can get a new slim console for 220 with a free game ... new console will drop to 200 I recon .. I would say check out the slim before you buy it

Which model is the slim version? And is there a PS5 available? Also looking for which to buy for my 7 year old (wants for minecraft to play with his friends but believe this won't be available until mid 2017?(across platforms??) Which is the best and why? (bear in mind for a 7yr old to last a few years hopefully). Thanks in advance for your help.
copperspock to Debra001

The Xbox one S (Slim) is the newer model. Both the Xbox One, Xbox One S (and the future Xbox Scorpio) will all play the same Xbox One games.
There is no PS5 yet. The current Sony console is the PS4, which also has a newer Slim version and PS4 Pro version, which again play all the same PS4 games (the differences are mainly in console size and resolution).
If your kid doesn't play on a 4K TV and you don't mind the larger model, go for the original Xbox One or PS4.
Minecraft Realms is apparently going to be cross-platform from what I've heard.
There are some differences between the two platforms, but nothing major (PS4 has the PS Virtual Reality headset, and Microsoft are expected to have an equivalent for when they release the Scorpio).

The Xbox Scorpio coming out in 2017 looks far from an incremental upgrade. Maybe they'll be releasing a model every 2 years with an 'S' version in between such as Apple do with iPhones.

16 Nov 16#41
wha do you mean by xbox one elite being the old model? older that one S i assume, right? is the same generation as the normal xbox one, maybe slightly newer because of the elite hard drive and controller.

16 Nov 16#42
Yeah I meant it's older as in using the same form as the rest of the pre-S generation.

The current Xbox one S comes with blue ray uhd player built in and can play all 4k movie apps like Netflix 4k with hdmi 2.0, hevc and Hdr. Why would want to waste money buying this old model which is old obsolete stock they are trying hard to get rid of by giving discount . You are getting a free uhd blue ray player and the difference is only £50 which is compatible with existing games.

17 Nov 16#52
just wondering about S or plain XBOX One. Know size and power difference but is there a difference on menu screens etc. I dont have a 4K T.V maybe in future but not sure. XBox one prices seem to be crashing so am I not being sensible wanting the XBOX one S over XBOX one or........

Like I said, if the person doesn't have a 4K TV then it's irrelevant.
On a more serious note £150 for an XB1 is a fantastic price.

Well, that's his thread derailed. 100 people are now going to be commenting about whether they can upgrade their tv or not using a thumb drive.
No, you can't.
This is a great price for xbone though. Is there a SKU or anything on the receipt - so that the rest of us can ask for the correct product and customer service staff can do a stock check for the right thing without having THAT conversation?

After looking at this deal, I phoned up my local asda, they ran out on this deal. So I phoned up the asda about 4 miles away and they have 1 left in the back, going to pick it up tonight.
I don't think they show the deal instore, but if you know about it and ask they'll tell you.

I don't think I ever commented on this, but I went last Thursday and got the last one, we only had two in stock in my Asda (I work there) and I got the second, called the other Asda near me and they didn't have any, didn't even have a clue why they would be £150. All in all, with 20% discount I bought it for £120... now that's a deal if you ask me.
* edit. I now see I did comment.
