I wonder what game/games they will bundle with the XBOX 360 at initial release?

This just crossed my mind while I was sitting here staring at the wall.

If there is a bundle, they may force you to buy it

I doubt there will be a bundle right at launch, but MS may prove me wrong.

At best they'll probably bundle a coupon for a game.

I'd be more worried about stores forcing bundles. Like what happened with the PSP.

I didn't think that console bundles existed since SNES/Genesis? I know my N64, PS1 and Gamecube didn't include a game.

The bundles were only forced online...with a couple retailers such as ebgames. Everyone else sold just the unit.

why include a game with console when you KNOW consumers will NEED a game to even at least turn on to something that they can control with a controller. guaranteed cash there! so are secondary controllers.
nintendo is probably kicking themselves for including the Super Mario World game and the second controller and sell the bundle for only $199.99 back in 1991.

I have heard there might be different bundles later on (including a version of the console with a bigger hard drive and a second controller already bundled), but for intital launch probably just a basic console with one controller.

I'm going to wait until the Xbox 720 comes out.

The Xbox 1080 is where its at noob.


Anyway if the list is accurate there's at least 6 games I'll want on launch day. This could be an expensive november.
