There are many people talking about this bundle, saying that it’s not worth it because the console has no special design. That’s not a big deal at all. You have to look at the overall value you get with this bundle. The console itself has the Jasper chipset built-in, the hard drive is the largest available (250GB) with a custom Final Fantasy XIII engraving, there are two controllers (always safe to have a back-up), and the game itself is fantastic. I do feel that it would have been nice if they could have replaced the second controller with either HD or HDMI cables, but the value you get with this bundle is still worth it.
I was previously on a 20GB Pro pack from when those were the best available and this bundle was the upgrade I needed. The hard drive difference is the best upgrade yet. I am now able to install Final Fantasy XIII (along with a large amount of other games) onto my hard drive so that my console will perform better and at cooler temperatures. I’m sure people would think this bundle would be sweet if the console was designed, but once again, it’s no big deal. No matter what color or design you put on it, in the end it will still be an Xbox360. I also believe that Microsoft decided to not design the console because of problems relating to repairs. The repair process for a special designed Xbox360 takes longer than ones without a design. For example, if you have the special edition Modern Warfare 2 console, you will actually have to wait for you console to be fixed rather than get it quickly replaced.
If you have a high interest in Final Fantasy and need to upgrade (or getting an Xbox360 for the first time), go ahead and get this bundle you won’t regret it. If you’re on a 120GB Elite than you should either sell it and get this bundle (if you want it bad) or just stick with it. The bundle is great for people still on an Arcade or 20GB Pro console from years back.
Pros
+Great value
+Jasper chipset
+Large hard drive (250GB + special engraving)
+High rated game included
Cons
-No HD cables
KEY FACTS (things for gamers to notice):
>Headset included is in black (while console and controllers are white)
>For the last time – THE CHIPSET IS JASPER
>About 6GB of memory is reserved for the console, giving you 244GB (still a lot)

I’m an owner of a launch 360 that I’ve repaired multiple times. The drive clicks, the fans are obnoxiously loud and it doesn’t have HDMI. When I saw this package being advertised with a 250gb hadrdrive I jumped on it (since my ps3 just died as well). The 360 has the newest chipset and it’s noticeably quieter than my previous model (pre-repair). I’m so used to my 360 running like a jet engine that I thought I was doing something wrong when I turned it on. Although the package did not come with a data transfer kit or an HDMI cable (lame) –changing the DRM licensing on xbox.com was easy enough. Add the game, 2 controllers and the pre-order faceplate and this was a worthy investment.
I can barely fathom the amount of women who will flock to me as I’m playing my new xbox in my 3 Wolf Moon tshirt. MADNESSS!!!!!!!!

This package is well worth the extra 0 compared to the Elite version. FFXIII (.99), and an extra controller (.99) are included, and double the HDD space (250GB .99 value)! The double HDD space is basically a free bonus. As far as FFXIII the game, the graphics are amazingly stunning, the cutscenes look better than any movie, but the gameplay is a little awkward at first but easy to figure out. Overall this purchase is far from regretable for any Final Fantasy fan or someone looking to purchase an Xbox 360.
