Just a quick note for fellow frugal gamers living north of the U.S. border: InsightBits reports that today marks the beginning of a markdown on the old 60GB Xbox 360 Pro consoles in the wake of the price-cut Elite models.

Future Shop (a Canadian electronics/media store owned by Best Buy, for any unknowing Yanks reading this) is now marking the price of the units down to $200, the same price as the Arcade bundles.

So, if storage space isn't a major concern for you, you've now got a solution for as long as supplies last. And while I'm not sure how true it is, InsightBits adds "these are the new models and so are not likely to die like their earlier guinea pigs, err earlier models."
