I saw about 15 of these packages at Costco in Tustin, CA yesterday.
I sure was tempted to get one to play on my plasma but that sure is a lot of coin to be dropping on a gaming system.
I hadn't bought a console since the Super Nintendo, and if it wasn't for the fact that I already owned an HDTV, I wouldn't have bought a 360 either. The fact is, I haven't played a game on my computer since I bought the 360 back in December. It's well worth it if you already have the HDTV, and I'm quite surprised at the quality of games that are out too. I've played my friends xboxes and ps2s when they were new, and no game ever came out that made me want to rush out and buy one of those consoles. Also, with Arcade, Xbox Live, Live Marketplace, wireless controllers, etc. Microsoft finally did something right to bring convenience and robustness to gaming.
I think I actually spend less money now, since I'm just as content to stay in, instead of going out and spending money.
just my 2 cents.
