You can pre-order an Xbox at CompUSA as long as you buy 2 first party titles, 1 third party title and 2 accessories, nearly $500 in total. How Bill & Steve expect to go up against the video games industry with the same restrictive practices they used in the desktop PC market is beyond me. I think they forgot they don't have a monopoly in this game. Does making people buy 5 first party products to the 1 third party game not totally alienate your developers too..

The best thing is, you can't even order more than one controller from this form. Very clever work, guys! I really think it stinks that you have to order stuff in a bundle like this. I'm not sure how Microsoft are getting away with classifying some of these games as "First party" titles too. I thought Oddworld and Bungee were both independents?
