Amazon have done it again!

For £179.73 they are currently offering the XBOX 360 Elite Console with either Forza Motorsport 3 or Halo 3: ODST for free. Added to this already great offer is the option to purchase another of their selected games or the XBOX 360 Wireless Entertainment pack for only £20, the pack includes Pure, Lego Batman and one extra black wireless game pad. This gives you the rare chance to get an XBOX 360 Elite, three games and two wireless game pads for less than £200, an outstanding bargain if you ask us.

The XBOX 360 Elite is the absolute top of the range console that Microsoft offer, and comes with a 120GB hard drive, HDMI connectivity, a black wireless controller, a headset, and is finished in black to set it aside from its baby brothers and sisters.

Forza Motorsport 3 currently reigns supreme as the king of racing simulators on the XBOX 360, featuring over 400 cars from 50 of the world’s leading manufacturers, it offers gamers an unparalleled driving experience with a massive amount of difficulty options. Forza Motorsport 3 will give you many hours of game play.
Whether you are new to the genre and wish to enable auto braking or one of the many other driving aids, or if you want to turn them all off and go pedal to the metal, Forza Motorsport 3 has a configuration for you.

Halo 3: ODST is the latest in the long line of Halo First Person Shooters on the XBOX 360 and follows the story of the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers as they head in to New Mombasa to figure out just what the Covenant have done to the place, and why.
The game acts as a prequel to Halo 3 and unlike most other Halo games, players don’t play as the much heralded Master Chief. Instead they take on the role of an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, in a much more “back to basics” form of game play featuring a lot less high-tech weaponry and armour.

The ever busy folk over at Nintendo have announced that they are in the early stages of development of yet another new model in their long line of handheld consoles.

The new console is to feature a 3D display without the need for 3D glasses or similar, this will be good news for those of you who yearn to experience three dimensional game-play but are hesitant to be seen sporting the somewhat unfashionable specs in public.

Whilst there is no official title for their latest toy as yet, Nintendo are calling it the “Nintendo 3DS” and stated that it will be backwards compatible with all previous DS games, so you need not worry about having to replace all your current favourite Pokemon and Super Mario titles.

It has been half a decade since the release of the original Nintendo DS, in which time we have been blessed with a multitude of new and improved versions of it, the lite, the DSI and the more recent DS XL. While each new incarnation of the console has offered new features and hardware, the 3DS promises to be the most significant forward step that the DS has seen.

“We wanted to give the gaming industry a head’s up about what to expect from Nintendo at E3,” Ken Toyoda, chief spokesman at Nintendo told the New York Times. “We’ll invite people to play with the new device then.”

Many in the industry are keen to hear just what technology Nintendo are implementing in order to steal a march on their rivals, and be the first company to release a fully functional portable console with an integrated 3D display. Unconfirmed rumours from Japan suggest that the 3DS will also feature “3D joysticks” as well as force feedback and much improved wireless support.

We are certainly already eagerly anticipating the release of the 3DS, and look forward to seeing Mario jump right out of our screens and into our living rooms.

Be sure to keep an eye on whichconsole.co.uk for more news on the 3DS as and when it becomes available, and as always we guarantee to find you the very best deals for it upon its eventual release.
