Sams club has the XBox bundle which contains the following:

- XBox SYstem (which I believe come with Controller
- 2 sports games (one is Top Spin and another I can't remember)
- 2nd Controller
- DVD Remote

all this for $187.00

What do you think, or should I wait till Thanks giving sale.

you save around $18

make sure they're the s type controllers, but otehr than that, I'd say so

i think you get amped 2 (both games on 1 cd).

Nope. NCAA Football 2005.

i stand corrected.

The other game is not a crap game, its actuall NCAA 2005. wait till thanksgiving sales.

I don't believe I said that the other game was crap, I just said I couldn't remember what the other one was.

So is NCAA 2005 the best of the 2005 football games?

Thanks to all for the input.

Nope. Madden would be the best, with the $20 ESPN NFL 2K5 being a close second. Still, it's the only college football game available, it isn't bad at all and it was the first EA game on Live. Certainly that is a good deal since it's free.
About the bundle: Remember that you can (or will soon) be able to get the Xbox and those two games for $149.99 everywhere. So you're really getting the second controller and DVD playback kit for $40. That's not bad (since they retail for $30 each). Still if you don't need the DVD playback kit, it really isn't a good deal for you. Also if you think you'd like the Logitech wireless controller, you might want to pass on this deal since it's unlikely you'd need more than two controllers unless you are having a bunch of folks over to play games.
Don't know what deals are coming for Black Friday, but you can bet that the Xbox game bundle will be $149.99 with some sort of third party peripheral for free or an extra budget game.

Bottom line : I'd pass on the Costco bundle and keep an eye out for any B&M deal in the Sunday circulars.

I am waiting to get the bundle and trade in the two games you get in the box. Since i have played and owned the 2 games earlier, just going to get an extra 15 bucks back to put to get some logitech controllers.
