I would imagine most mature, non-casual gamers would already have a 360 though. This is a play for the parents that can't find a Wii this holiday season. Kind of like the PS2 Lego Batman bundle.

You mean like those on Xbox Live?

I'm excited to be an owner of Kung-Fu Panda and Lego Indiana Jones once the prices drop like a Rock.

Honestly, I'm considering all the bundle because I wouldn't mind a 60 gig, and those two games.

I would actually be tempted if Sega Tennis came with the Pro instead.

Wonder if BBV will carry these so I don't have to transfer back to GS...

The two games might share the same case as the last year's holiday bundled UA/Forza 2 games did.

Yep, very likely.

The original package was going to be Bioshock/The Darkness. Would have been a bigger seller in my opinion but oh well.

This bundle doesn't seem as good as last years bundle of Forza/Marvel...

sweet i want a 360 and lego indy

Interesting....

HAHA! So glad I didn't wait and bought Amazon's Arcade bundle with Lego Batman for $200. Pretty ridiculous that Amazon can give you a game that just came out that week, while all MS can muster up is Sega Superstars Tennis. That game isn't even worth a flip at Blockbuster anymore. The only good news from this is that I'll be able to pick up Lego Indy soon for super cheap.

Now my missing out on the Lego Batman deal sucks even more. I hope this doesn't keep retailers from coming out with deals of their own (at least a substantial free gift card when Gears 2 comes out, perhaps?). I'll keep my fingers crossed and hang back for a while longer. Heck, every day that goes by makes it more likely that I'll luck out with a Jasper.

Now if Best Buy or Toys R' Us would offer that free $100 gift card with purchase like they did before with purchase of 360.. Be a good time to go for the Elite..

That would make my Christmas..

Hey I picked up the Pro bundle today at EB and it's NOT the Jasper chip. Mine says it was manufactured 7/27/07. It's the Pro 60GB with a sticker on it showing the games, and the Kung Fu Panda and Indy games are in special packaging like the Forza/Marvel bundle. So basically they opened the boxes and stuck the game in and slapped a sticker on the box.

Yipes, that might not even be a Falcon...

damn....the 60 gig i got (non-bundle) has a 7/4/08 date!

That truly sucks...all I know is to look on the outside packaging for Lot# 0832 or higher for the latest chipset, but still no definitive proof that the Jasper will be inside.

That sucks. I called 5 gamestops today and 4 of them confirmed they were selling existing inventory and giving people the bundled games separately. I'd hoped these would be completely new bundles with recent manufacture dates, but I guess that's not the case.

If that's the case...then I can get myself a somewhat cheap Xbox 360 Pro after selling the two games. Interesting....
