TVG is among the hundreds of video game news sites passing along unconfirmed reports from Walmart employees that Microsoft’s XBox 360 will be in stores on November 4th, 2005.
According to the rumors, the console itself will be $299, though consumers will no doubt be forced to purchase the units in a number of “bundles”,with mandatory included accessories and games, driving the out-the-door price up a possible $100 more. The supposed leaks also make the claim that most release-day games will be priced at $59.99.
Of course, like most hot items, these numbers and date have been repeated on many gaming sites without a single secondary source to give any real credibility to the story, so take that as you will.
