Star wars getting positive reviews? Sure, they're not terrible reviews, but everyone's been saying that the game is bland and not Star Wars-like.
Anyways, I've never gotten more buyers remorse than when I bought my 360. Within 2-3 months, they lower the price, add 40 more GB, and give you 2 games that I was planning on buying (ok, I didn't really want Star Wars) too. I would've saved at least $200+ if I would have waited.
Oh well.

I didn't say positive reviews. I said "mostly positive buzz."

While I won't speak for the game overall, it is a whole lot more Star Wars-like than the last three movies (four if you want to count Clone Wars).

Gears is indeed the old version, a specific edition marked "not for resale".
My recommendation with this deal: Go to the nearest Future Shop that is out of one of the titles, find a nice clerk and ask them if they can substitute one or both of the games. Worked for me last week when it was Gears and Dead Or Alive Extreme 2 free with it; got myself Viva Pinata Trouble in Paradise and Tony Hawk Project 8 instead.

if you wait a couple more months, FS will probably have the same deal except with GOW2 instead of GOW1 in there.
I remeber when I bought my 360 I got GOW free with it from FS, and it was only like a week old.

I wish this deal was in the U.S. I'd pick up an arcade with the two games for an interim system while my elite is in MS sickbay.

that's kinda harsh, all I wanted was a deal in the U.S. but I guess that is why you are Psychohog...

They don't ship to the U.S?.... FutureShop SUCKS. Man I was getting all excited about this. Oh well. At least the canucks get a sweet deal.

This is really enticing as I've been looking at getting a 60GB 360. But that's if I don't get something else...
