Now that’s a much better deal. 250gb, Forza 3 and an extra controller for £50 more than the bog-standard Elite? Thumbs up. Makes that Halol deal from yesterday look a bit shit, actually.

Is this the ‘same’ bundle as the MW2 one? Does this mean the MW2 bundle will also be £250?

Isn’t the MW2 version £50 more expensive, though? £50 for a different game and a custom paint job seems… excessive. The Forza pack also has a 250gb HDD.

@Blerk, Crazy Kotick probably had something to do with the pricing
