Xbox 360 EBGames Bundles

[Shayne]

Okay, so most news sites are reporting that like the PSP and Xbox launches in the past, retailers will be bundling the console with a bunch of other stuff.



Well, today EBGames has shown off their bundle.  It brings a painful tear to my eye, and i hope that i do not gotta buy it in this way, but that i can buy it in a more generic fashion.

Man, the system is not even out yet and they are trying to off-load games.



As with the current gen of systems, I will wait and see.. I already use my XBOX mostly as a media center not as a gaiming system, and I rarely touch the Gamecube a it might as well be refered to as the Zelda box... one more Zelda game then its probably done for.. Where as the XBOX will probably live on connected to another TV even if I get the 360.

Ive been told by EB in Edmonton that they are not bundling for those who preordered earlier, and as of yet they still are not bundling as most stores have alreay maxed out the amount that they are allowed to preorder for.



I love Xbox Live, and Xbox360 will make all the most impressive.  Im not a big fan of PC Gaming anymore, just seems like their is a massive space between killer games and when they do come out with the "next best thing" its normally so "advanced" you gotta spend $500 on an upgrade just to enjoy it.



Its sad when ive decided to get Call of Duty on the 360 and not on my PC.
