Why the hell are they bundling Forza 3 and not Forza 4? That's probably going to take away sales from F4.

Why the hell would they bundle a brand new game? F3 being bundled with 360's won't take away sales from F4.

Gears 3 is bundled. Uncharted 3 will be as well. Not to mention FFXIII-2, Skyward Sword, Xillia etc. Most bundled games are bundled at the start of their lifetimes.

Yeah but most bundled new games are console demand leaders that are expected to drive hardware sales further and possibly encourage re-purchase of consoles.  Forza 4, while no doubt a great game, doesn't fall into either category.  I can't see people going out of their way to buy a 360 to get Forza nor buying a special edition to get Forza.

Forza 4, like 3 before it, will get bundled a lot after launch to encourage spread of the franchise.  Hence no Forza 4 bundles for launch.

IMHO anyway.
