You've been asking about it, you've been wondering when and at what price it'll release and now we may have an answer for you. The 60GB standalone Xbox 360 hard drive is rumored to release as a bundle for $99, maybe ...According to the 1UP rumor mill, the 60GB HDD bundle was recently revealed to attendees of the GameStop Expo in Las Vegas (employees only, please). The bundle is said to include the 60GB HDD, a 3 month subscription to Xbox Live and an ethernet cable all for $99. Not horribly bad. But what also caught our eye is the other GameStop Expo rumor regarding a new 12 month Xbox Live bundle.The new bundle is pegged to include a year of Xbox Live, a copy of PGR4 and a 360 Messenger Kit for $69. Again, this is all gossipy rumor stuff, so don't get overly excited just yet.

This cant be true. It would nullify the pro model. Why buy an xbox with 60gb hdd for $299 when you can buy an arcade for $199 + $99 60GB bundle. By going the arcade route, you snag yourself a free memoery card + 3 free months of XBL, which you would not recieve by just buying the pro.

@ joeybeast
Unfortunately if they sell the 60GB hard drive for less than $99, new customers will just buy the arcade unit and drive separately. (If they are smart that is. Why not end up with a extra memory unit for less than the price of a pro bundle?)
I really wish they were including the transfer cable instead of an ethernet cable. How long does it take to get one mailed to you from Microsoft?

It only took mine two weeks. It's completely painless, just fax in the form and play the waiting Game.

Getting a free transfer cable isn't really the problem per se. The problem is that the transfer from 20 to 60 doesn't work 100%, from what I read on the internet that is.

Throwing a memory unit in that bundle would be pretty sweet of them...I want a memory unit so I can throw my profile on it to take between different consoles.

The second bundle would be fantastic. I just got my 360 a little over a month ago and love racing games, playing online, and talking with friends... I could combine all 3 at a good price point.
