Well according to this site and it has pictures of the console, it looks like Microsoft is bundling Forza 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance with the 360 this fall, http://www.2old2play.com/News/Go_Pro_or_Go_Big__New_Xbox_360_Holiday_Bundle_

Great move on Microsoft's part if this is true, which I am sure it is, because they are out to slash the throats of their competition. :P

I also think it is long overdue Microsoft is honest with us about this stuff and quit trying to hide it, because they know this stuff is going to get leaked

They should just release these bundles now, if they want more sales or encourage retailors to do a price drop on the games, that are going to bebundled with these new Bundle Sku's, so then that way nobody feels cheated and will not hesisitate to buy a new Xbox 360

I miss the old days when most systems came with a game lol...But I have heard that production costs are so high on newer systems that the only way the companies make their money in the long run is through game sales...if that is true then they are just losing more money giving away games in bundles.That is probably why they are packaging Marvel Ultimate Alliance since it has run its course and Forza 2 has begun to slow down as well.

Maybe Marvel Ultimate Alliance will be really cheap by itself then, then I would buy it cause I like it.

That would be great because I miss the days when consoles came with a game and extra controller. I wonder how much those packs will cost if they come out.

I find it interesting that neither IGN or Gamespot has reported this yet, especially gamespot on their Rumor Control news, I guess they are lagging behind on the news. :shock:

That's a pretty good deal, assuming it's the same price. I was waiting for a bundle before I buy a 360 this fall. Unfortunately, I don't have any interest in Forza. Still, not bad if it's free.

Some people I know are not into Racing Simulator's, but Forza 2 is a very good one though and you get another game with it as well

Those Bundles are going to be the same price as the Elite and the Pro, The Elite Bundle looks to come out at the end of the month, and the pro one in the first part of October, I would wait for the Elite Bundle to come available at the end of October and get that one

More Evidence of the impending bundles showing the Corprate Sku from Best Buy, http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2007/10/01/evidence-of-new-xbox-360-holiday-bundles/

I also find it funny that gamespot nor ign has reported this so far

Here in Canada the premiums come with Forza 2, which has been going on for a couple of months now. Plus, every retailer usually includes another game, i.e. Splinter Cell: Double Agent (Futureshop). Heck, when I got my 360 (Nov. 06) it came bundled with G.R.A.W. and Xbox Live Unplugged.
