    now they all come with xbox live.

    my question is if i buy any of them will it give me a gold membership on my xbox360, because if it does then i might get the bottom one.

    I paid £19.99 for 12 months xbox Live subsciption at Argos which includes the headphones etc. Now all I will do is swap it over to the 360 once it's set up on the older machine

    Yep, any 12 month Live subscription will work straight away on 360. When you sign up for live, you have the option of EITHER entering your credit card details and paying that way, OR by entering a pre-paid subscription code.

    Using the latter means you DO NOT need a credit card.

    you won't need to do that mate, all you do is put the code into the 360 when signing up and it will recognise it as a gold subscription.

    Nice one Chief! I read that you can only transfer the old subscription to the new service. I thought it wouldn't work straight from new as it is for the old xbox?

    You can do it "straight from new" as you put it. As I did (never had live with xbox).

    Easiest way is to set up an account/gamertag on www.xbox.com with your hotmail details.

    Then when you have your code, just enter it on 360 and it ties it to your hotmail related, already made gamertag.

    I live in the midlands. No store around here had them. I searched the stores in north wales where my parents were and got one no probs. Maybe lucky! This was last saturday.
