The Xbox 360 Elite - a new 120GB version already available in the US (see our Xbox 360 Elite review) - is also on the way. The new model will be released on Friday 24 August and will sell for £299.99.

"First-timers will love the Xbox 360 Core system, which offers an affordable entry into high-definition gaming. The Xbox 360 Elite, with its large hard drive and wireless controller, will appeal to casual and experienced gamers and families," said Stephen McGill, Head of Gaming & Entertainment, Xbox UK.
