Microsoft Plans Xbox 360 "Game of the Year" Bundle


Microsoft will launch the Xbox 360 Game of the Year bundle sometime in May, the company said by way of its "Major Nelson" blog on Monday.

It's a pretty simple deal: a Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite, bundled with Halo 3 and Fable II, all for $399. As Major Nelson points out, that's the normal price of the Elite -- meaning that the games are included for free.

Bad news for Europeans, however: the deal will be offered everywhere but there; there was no explanation given. There's also the question of how many gamers out there want both an Xbox 360 Elite but don't own either game.

"Major Nelson" is the blog name of Larry Hyrb, the Microsoft director of programming for Xbox Live.
