Aye, it would be great for profit if there were only like 10, but theres hundreds on there so people can just look down the list for one for £200 ish. And with a game the seller wont be making any profit at £200.

Are they any good?

Looks quite fun but Im sure the novelty would wear off rather quick

How does it compare price wise in comparison to a 360?
