Saw that pic a few days ago. Looks alot more professional than the POS one they made for the original Xbox.

Oh and if they don't include it with the system this time around, someone needs to be ass raped at Microsoft.

yeah I hope they just bundle it all together this time. or at least make a special bundle with all the stuff in it. I miss the days when you got 2 controllers and a game with a new system.

the prices have been leaked. 300 for the standard system and 360 for the bundle. Not bad at all really. I was expecting to pay much more for next generation. But then again gota wait and see how much you Sony fanboys will have to pay for ur cell hype.. which im sure will be much more.

yeah i miss those days too. when they came with a real full game not a demo disc, it really makes no sense they dont bundle a game since cds and dvds are much cheaper to make than carts.
