+1. $30 for insurance? MS almost assuredly offers 12mo warranty (I know Nintendo does!)
2. Some of those games are gunna suuuck! And you are paying full price for them! hahaha
Sorry, that is just fuuuuny! Waaaay overpriced!
Now if they were offering the Xbox 360 a month early for any Joe who ponies up $1200 that would be one thing... but OVER retail price... hahahaha!

That bundle is just stupid. At least give something off. Like $100 or something.
whatever kid gets that bundle is going to have a happy christmass .
Anyway the warrenty should be 50$ i believe .
These bundles are like this because they don't make moeny off the hardware . So they want to make sure they sell games with it . There are better bundles offered like this one

Has that $1200 bundle got the HD?
What's the "play and charge kit"? Is it the USB cable to attach wireless controllers to the system to charge the battery pack?
If so, why the hell isn't this cable included with either the controller OR the battery pack? Fucken money-scammers, how the hell is one supposed to charge the battery pack if the cable to do it is yet another separately sold item? Jesus H. C... They apparantly weren't kidding when they said they wanted to make a profit this time 'round.

Na read the bundle
It comes with the xbox 360 premium and a second wireless controller
THey are only selling u a plug and play kit and then a wireless battery .
SO you have a second controller with one battery right ? Nope casue one comes with the plug and play kit
So in the bundle your getting a battery for both controllers. I think its better to just buy 2 plug and play kits . Figure 40$ for 2 chargers and 2 batterys that way
Why would someone buy 10 games all at once, if there's no savings to be made?! I like focusing on one game at a time, and i'd understand if they said "get 10 games for $40 instead of $50!" But this isn't like that.

holiday season for spoiled kids or someone that truly is a hardcore console gamer
These bundles prices, at US retailer, are getting out of control... A $1.2K bundle? They got to be kidding.
I was thinking that forcing a bundle of a Console + a game on a consumer was too much...
But 11 games + accessories? Insanity reigns supreme over Gamestop headquarter, it seems.

The worst thing about that bundle is, six out of those 10 games doesn't interest me in the slightest, and I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels that way.
Is that EVERY launch game they bundled up like that, or will there be others that actually weren't included?

... and why have 10 launch games?! So that 6 months down the line you can say to your mates "hey look at me, i've got the 10 worst games on X360!".
Not saying all those games will be crap, but launch games are hardly ever remembered as good games. 2 or 3 from that list might be ok.

It's the credit-card reader that charges your credit card account as you play, for 'premium' content.Guden Oden said:

Well I know when i was in college we got a little over a month for x mass break . So u figure the system would come out about a month before that . That would be enough time for one or two games with class work. Then figure you have a month of nothing to get through 8 more ? That is do able .
Anyway there are already 2 reserves for it . WE were astounded when the dm called us

Are you saying that these bundles are available at your store? Are they forced or optional?

Dumb Question; when you say theyr'e "forcing" these bundles on us, does that mean that my Gamestop 360 preorder just got screwed with yet again? I sincerely hope theyr'e still offering the 399.00 version that I'm still scraping up pennies for. Please tell me I'm a moron for even considering this as a possibility.
