Call Of Duty: Black Ops Xbox 360 bundle announced

Microsoft has announced that the highly anticipated shooter Call of Duty: Black Ops will be packaged with the new Xbox 360 S console this November, with the Call of Duty: Black Ops Premium Bundle.

“The Premium Bundle delivers the perfect complement to Call of Duty: Black Ops,” said Michael Sportouch, General Manager, Call of Duty Business Unit, Europe.  “We’re excited for the Call of Duty community to have such a great offering available to them.  Fans will have the chance to play and experience the intense and epic action that Treyarch has created in Black Ops and be able to share the enjoyment on the newest and latest Xbox 360 console.  This is a great match.”

The bundle includes the game, the new Xbox 360 S console with 250GB hard drive, an Xbox 360 black wireless controller and a one month Xbox LIVE Gold membership.

The Call of Duty: Black Ops Premium Bundle is set to launch alongside the game on 9 November, with an estimated retail price of R3499.

This will certainly push some consoles. It is not a special edition like the ones for Halo Reach or Modern Warfare 2 though.

Wait, this wasn't announced? I've been looking at 360s these past couple of days and seen plenty of those bundles.

Gonna sell like hot cakes.

I was a little meh when I saw only one controller. Oh and what's that price, $349? If that's the price then I guess that's about right but I like those limited bundles much more, extra controller and a theme.

Where at? Never heard of it until today. These shouldn't even be on store shelves with a street date of the 9th.

Various online stores, available for preorder.

I wonder if they'll do a proper bundle (eg. Branded 360, two controllers, a game) in the US?
