    Default Microsoft Reduces Xbox To $110

    A new Xbox bundle launching October 15th will include an Xbox console, a Controller S, plus two games, Sega GT and Jet Set Radio Future all for $199.99.
    Do the math my stunned little friend. Take away the games and your paying $110 for the console. Now pick you jaw up off the floor.
    ***cube is dead. Officially now

    Several game stores are already taking pre-orders for the bundle; get ‘em before their gone folks.

    This has nothing to do with it dropping to $110... Maybe $150, but they will not go lower than that. The bundle is not the loss of MS... ITS SEGA's loss if anyones

    Repeat after me..............

    USER BASE, USER BASE, USER BASE...............

    I know alot of us may be bitter about the lower priced bundles available, especially if your a November buyer like me, but i don't dwell on it anymore. The name of the game at this point is get as many XBOX's in homes as possible.

    I don't care if they give 'em away at this point, the more owners the better the future will be.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?" Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

    LOL!!!!, you obviously never had a night of woopie with her. But on the topic of a good deal....yeah!!! that is a great deal....I payed $300 to. I think we should be given something free if we prove we payed the high price for it. Show your sales bill and get a free game or cow testicle. Something free....Anything....Please!! Even a trail demo disk of XBOX Exhibition or a Mag or something. Or if you wanna go the cow testicle route, you could go that way too. Anything!!!

    Aside from you year old "joke", I'll respond as calmly as I can.

    I don't see where you logic is that this bundle will cause the Gamecube to "die". If Xbox realeses this bundle, Sony won't be far behind (which will just send their sales through the roof..more so) same with Gamecube (probably a SMS bundle or a Metroid Prime one). Also if I'm not wrong, both those games cost more than $40, or at least one of them does. So I don't see how your math can be correct..

    See, people always are like...

    "Oh WOW!!! A bundle and stuff for cheap?! MS is showing price drop soon"


    Well, have you ever went and checked out EBAY or here? You make more selling seperate than in a bundle. Same as for the XBOX. Well its sorta different BUT. If you look at it from a perspective, MS wants people to get XBOX. With this deal, MS is probably going to get it THUS making people buy more games. Smart?? YES

    Whoever thinks this is bad, THINK AGAIN

    I agree, a Halo bundle would be kickass. But the reason why MS and Sega is doing this is to cut losses. Sega titles havent been selling well on Xbox. And MS is throwing in the extra controller (old one) to get rid of them because of the switch to controller S. No matter wich way you look at it its a pretty good deal. Im interested to see how Sony and Nintendo react.

    You'll take my life but I'll take yours too, You'll fire your musket but I'll run ya through! So when your waiting for the next attack you'd better stand theres no turnin back.

    The bugle sounds and the charge begins but on this battlefield no one wins, the smell of acrid smoke and horses breath as I plunge into certain death.

    The horse he sweats with fear we break to run, the mighty roar of the Russian guns and as we race towards the human wall the screams of pain as my comrades fall.

    We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground and the Russians fire another round, we get so near so far away, we wont live to fight another day.

    We get so close near enough to fight, when a Russian gets me in his sight, he pulls the trigger and I feel the blow, a burst of rounds take my horse below.

    And as I lay there gazing at the sky, my body's numb my throat is dry, and as I lay forgotton and alone without no fear I take my parting groan.

    I don't have big hands, but I think the original controller was the best controller ever.
