$99 Xbox program now available at Best Buy and GameStop

Microsoft has announced that the $99 4GB Xbox 360 package that debuted at Microsoft Stores in North America last month is now available at Best Buy and select GameStop locations. For those who need a refresher, the purchaser pays $99 up front for a 4GB Xbox 360 and a Kinect sensor. Additionally, the buyer signs a 2-year contact which obligates them to pay $14.99 a month for the next two years. Upon signing the contact, the consumer gets access to Xbox Live Gold for the duration of the contract. If for some reason, the proud new Xbox owner decides to terminate their contact before the two year term is up, they will be subject to an early termination fee. For more details, check out our original post from back when the program was initially announced.

$99 Xbox 360 program expanding to Best Buy and select GameStop locations

A few weeks back, Microsoft announced a pilot program that is underway in Microsoft Stores giving consumers the chance to buy a 4GB Xbox 360 and Kinect sensor for just $99 up front, and $14.99 a month going forward for two years. Today, Microsoft has announced that the program is expanding to Best Buy as well as select GameStop locations in the United States. As a reminder, upon paying the $99 up front, the buyer signs a 2-year contact that commits them to paying the $14.99 a month fee. In exchange, you go home with a 4GB Xbox 360, a Kinect sensor, and a 2-year subscription to Xbox Live Gold. If the program sounds enticing, you can head to a Microsoft Store now, or wait for Best Buy and select GameStop brick and mortars to start the program later this month.
