It comes with a game by Alexey Pajitnov. I call that worth $300

Yes, because we all know it's going to be released without games.

When I finally get my 360, the first game I want for it will be Oblivion so I can drool and lick the TV screen and get electrocuted.

I have 3 regular xbox games leftover that I couldn't sell when I sold my xbox, i'm hoping one of them will be backwards compatable with my 360. I'm just not too floored by the launch games. This may change once reviews start coming in. Then I might pick up a game or two when I go get it (depending on my cash flow that is. I'm jobless at the moment).

Does it really come with a game or was that just some sort of cruel joke?

But like Trep said, the games are'a comin, so it's all good. Launch games have a history of sucking ass.

Yes, its a puzzle game that ships with the hard drive, and for those who missed it from Tabacco's name dropping its by the guy who made Tetris...

Oh god, I'm really starting to lean towards the 360 now...

Yesterday, I even found myself comparing prices of various games and accessories. I think I might actually have to get one, despite the fact that I'm not really interested in any of the launch titles (with the exception of Kameo).

I think Microsoft may have gotten a hold of me...

I'm thinking of going with Perfect Dark Zero for when I pick mine up. People are saying great things about it.
