Holiday Xbox 360 bundles are official
It's not like we didn't see this offer headed down the pipeline, but now it's 100% official. This morning Microsoft sent out a press release announcing the release of the planned Xbox 360 holiday bundles. Starting sometime near the end of October, consumers will start seeing all new Xbox 360s and Xbox 360 Elites come bundled with both Forza Motorsport 2 and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. This bundling of games will of course help with Microsoft's plans at world domination this holiday season and hopefully win over the hearts of Wii crazy mothers.Next up, the confirmation of the Xbox 360 Arcade which we say will be announced sometime next week. Place your bets.

does halo 3 come in one. i would think since the game is a console mover MS would bundle it with one of there models maybe the halo edition 360.

@3. why do that when however many thousands of people are buying the 360 purely to play h3 in the first place
Frank @ Oct 8th 2007 12:29PM
Adam has a point, why on earth would they bundle halo 3 with the system, when you've got a huge surge of people buying the system so they can purchase the game additionally?
I could see a halo 3 edition 360 coming with halo 3 now, since the original reason it didn't was that they wanted to let consumers choose which edition of halo 3 they wanted. The legendary and limited are now gone, so I could see them including the standard edition.

i hate bundles, always seem to have games or movies i dont really want and cost pretty uch the same as if i just bought everything separate anyway.

I'm getting it! Finally, I've reached the tipping point! I hope to Jesus it's the 65nm, hopefully the lot numbers will be nice and high... over 731, right?

Is there any way to know if these bundles are going to have the new Falcon chip in there, or are we just going to have to wait until they come out and someone opens one up

i picked up one of these bundles today (my original system died from the red ring of death). not sure about chipset, etc., but it has a manufacturing date of Sept. 5 and has hdmi. not bad for 349.
