1st one isnt bad. But 300 pounds for the 3rd one is pretty expensive.

i think the third is better than the second. the third has a 250gb instead of 4gb and has two extra games instead of one (sports and dance central 2 against the disney game). adventures is in both packages just in big on the second because there is no second extra game.

Yea, the 2nd should really be more along the lines of 120gb. 4 gb is nothing for anything... cant even play halo 4.

if i wanted to buy a 360 with kinect i would buy the first bundle + one new game at zavvi for free like i posted with the link (or anywhere else with such a nice bonus) and buy kinect alone maybe even used with kinect games which are super cheap.

Whooo! Forza bundle sales :)

But overall the bundles are a casual grab. And at this point in the game, thats what its all about



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

This also means no price cut until next year. New bundles and then price cut would be illogical.

Those games need to get ruled out of the top10 sellers for X360, because they are bundled, it is not fair.

Or so, some people in here think at least.


Except Kinect Adventures, none of these games appear or will appear in the top 10 in the future.
Furthermore Dance Central 2 and Skyrim are download only, so VGC won't count them anyway.

Hah, theres the Yearly Forza bundle.


Not as if forza needs bundling in the uk. Almost in the top 10 again this week.  It's a beast over here. Not even had the cut price version yet.



Amazing how well racing games do over here.

good bundles. Sell less systems at a higher price point and maximise profitability instead of selling more units at a lower price point to make the same amount of profit.

Seem like some pretty good targets. I'm still surprised Disney Kinect hasn't sold better. (I wonder if it is too hard.)

Having Skyrim bundled is rather exciting for an adult gamer bundle. I think it would do very well - if they were really smart they would include the DLC to grab up the PS3 players they can't get it, but have extra money.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

There is still chance for price cut(they can still cut the bundle when they announce),but yeah chance are low,seems MS don't give a fuck about Wii U and (likely coming) new PS3 Slim
