I think I saw the xbox live bundle at best buy this past weekend, but I'm not overly sure, and I believe that I saw they had stuck some new games in the box for the other bundles too..

I know that if you buy Xbox live seperate from Xbox it gives you a year of service with it. What if you buy the xbox bundle with the 2 months of xbox live AND buy a seperate xbox live thingy?

Would you still get that year?

I mean, it could be like AOL, as long as you have different credit card numbers you can get a free month for each.

i heard you can put a mod chip into xbox, upgrade the hard drive, use it as a ftp server/gaming server, or run linux off it, or copy every game you rent right on to it so you never have to pay again
So whats so great about a xbox bundle?

but thts probably a fake rumor
