Will they bundle brand new titles through the holidays?

They wont bundle gears 2, no point bundling something that will sell millions anyway. My guess would be viva 2, banjo, scene it or something. I definitely think they'll bundle the casual games because its the new market they're trying to appeal to and they'll need to provide some serious incentives to steal some casuals from the wii.

Haha. Better make it count Squilliam.

Make it COUNT!!

Gears 2 will sell to existing owners, and people looking for a reason to buy a 360. Gears 1 could be a pretty good "gateway drug" and get new buyers to buy Gears 2. Gears was probably the 4th or 5th 360 game I bought. I didn't really care for the character designs and setting. By the time I finished it, I was converted. Why wasn't I hyped for this awesome title?

Forza = E (Everyone)
Marvel UA = T (Teen)

I doubt they would bundle an M rated game (Gears) as their main holiday bundle.

I would expect a Banjo, viva, or PGR4 bundle.

Good point, Wiistation360.

Yeah there may be something in that. Though you could envision Microsoft making the Elite bundle M.

Didnt they have Halo 3 arcade bundles in Europe? Or is Halo 3 not M?

This is what I was going to post.  I doubt they would make seperate bundles based on ratings, so they are very unlikely to put Gears in the bundle.

Maybe one of the Lego games and PGR4. The game would most likely be a $20-$30 and fit in one case. I think Scene it would make a good bundle, but it's too big to fit inside the box and I doubt MS would make a bigger box to hold that game and the console.

i think they will bundle the arcade with banjo 1 and maybe banjo2 on the memory card. the pro with fable 1 on the hdd and a demo of fable2. the elite with gears 1 and maybe a demo of gears2.
