Same retail, but will include a third game, Amped.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?"
