Microsoft is bundling two free games with all new Xbox 360 and Xbox 360 Elite's sold in the US from the end of the month.

First-party title Forza Motorsport 2 and Activision's Marvel Ultimate Alliance will be given away with the hardware, representing a saving of around USD 90.

In August Microsoft slashed USD 50 off all Xbox 360 models in the US, bringing prices down to USD 449 for the Elite model, USD 349 for the Premium unit and 279 for the Core console.

Microsoft was not available to comment on any possible European promotions at the time of writing.

Why do they always bundle shitty games that no one would buy? I'd probably buy one of these bundles if it had Gears of War and something fun like Dead Rising.

Well I think Forza 2 is a GREAT game and was shocked to see it being included. But for the mass market that games will be to advanced for many and I don't think that many people will like it.

It's a "real" racing game that throws off everyone coming into it after playing years of EA's street racing games lol.

As for the other one that is a crap no one care game imo.
