New XBox Bundle out in the next 2 weeks!
 
Same retail, but will include a third game, Amped.

Trigger 11-14-02 03:24 AM

Huh... that's weird. It's cool that they're including another game, but why so soon? Isn't the current bundle doing well? oh - and do you have any links?

This may be a Wal-Mart only bundle. It's listed in the Black Friday thread:

Allegedly, first quarter 2003, they are releasing this Xbox for home users

That's hideous.

tygloalex 11-14-02 07:14 AM

I work at wal-mart, so perhaps.





Do you have any links? I held about 1000 of the boxes in my hand last night. I'll paypal everyone $5 if I'm lying ;)

But like mentioned before, I do work at wal-mart. Nowhere on the box does it say anything about being a wal-mart exclusive though. It just says Holiday Pack-Includes 3 free games-a $120 value.

looks pretty good to me ... I usually go for just the standard black on a console, but that one actually looks cool to me.

Groucho 11-14-02 08:15 AM

This sucks if true for all of us who just bought the 2 game bundle.

gcribbs 11-14-02 08:16 AM

wow now a third game this soon- sounds like they are dropping the price without doing it. they must be having trouble meeting the lowered sales figures.

Corky Roxbury 11-14-02 08:25 AM

I also like that new xbox version, but I already own the normal xbox so I wouldn't get this one, it isn't a cheap is upgrading a dvd to a SE dvd

What's the third game?

Amped I believe.

Lastblade 11-14-02 09:18 AM

Is Amped any good?

Yes.

Jeebus, my eyes! As if the hideous green of everything XBox wasn't enough, they make the entire unit and controller green....that is something I will never have.

Roan 11-14-02 09:44 AM

If this green XBOX comes out, I bet all the people who paid big bucks on eBay for the special employee XBOX won't be too happy. I think it looks ok. It's a little hard on the eyes so I'll stick with my black XBOX.

Gizmo 11-14-02 09:45 AM

Is this a PACK-IN, or is it included seperatly when you buy the game?

Gallant Pig 11-14-02 09:49 AM

I would guess they are simply giving the game away when you buy one.

I don't think so...

Sounds like the third game is bundled in the box...perhaps they'll give the game away with the 2 game bundles already out there.

Gallant Pig 11-14-02 11:19 AM

True, but it is Walmart only it seems, interesting bundle. Amped can be had for very cheap so anyone who didn't get this shouldn't feel slighted.

tygloalex 11-14-02 11:51 AM

It's packed right in. I have no idea if it's on the same dvd, I think I'd get in trouble if I cut open an xbox at work.

tygloalex 11-14-02 11:52 AM

Just to clear up confusion, I did not have any of the green ones. They were still the black ones. In fact, identical to the bundle now, except with a holiday bundle sticker and Amped. I didn't notice what controller, but I'd assume the S.

tygo, a bit OT here but I just wanna thank you for that story. I have it bookmarked and it's just what I need to cheer up a loooong day :lol:

Zodo 11-14-02 12:23 PM

At this point, does this seem like an act of desperation to anyone?

To me, it's like "ok..here's ANOTHER damn_game...will you buy it now? Please?"
