The games included are Pac-Man Championship Edition, UNO, Luxor 2, Boom Boom Rocket and Feeding Frenzy.
So now this gives you on hell of a reason to get an Xbox 360 now
It seems that the Halo 3 launch did’nt go to plan as there has been reports of some faulty discs with the limited edition.
The problem seems to boil down to the discs being unreadable and some of them containing scratches that will stop you playing anymore of Halo 3 past a certain point.
It’s not just the limited edition that is suffering the standard and the expensive legendary edition is also affected.
At the moment Microsoft has yet to comment on the situation but when they do we will let you know

It looks like the Wii is still winning the console wars in japan with figures showing that it is out selling it’s main rival the PlayStation 3 by a figure of 3:1.
In the four weeks that ended on the 24th August the Wii sold 245,653 with the PlayStation 3 selling 81,541 units and the Xbox 360 lagging so far behind with only 11,288 sold in the same space of time.
This brings the total of Wii’s to 3.4 million with the PlayStation 3 shifting 1.1million and the Xbox 360 only selling 442,290 to date.
These figures show that the Wii is still out doing it’s competition and that the Xbox 360 still is the whipping boy of the three consoles and that Microsoft still hasn’t made the impact that they have in other territories.
It’s about time that we get a price cut for the 360 as America, Australia and Japan have had one so people will be glad to hear that Microsoft has finally seen the light of day and announced that there will be a price cut from this Friday.
First on the list will be the new Elite that will now retail at 299.99 instead of 329.99, the Premium will get a 30 pound price cut dropping the price from 279.99 to 249.99 and finally the core will drop from 199.99 to 179.99.
Stephen McGill head of gaming & entertainment for Xbox in the UK said in a statement that “Whether it’s our lead in console sales, record-setting games and accessory attach rates or our leading online service, evidence is everywhere that Xbox is thriving.”
He went on to say that “When you combine that momentum with these great-value offerings with our unbeatable Christmas game line-up, it’s clear that Xbox 360 is uniquely placed to take the UK by storm this Christmas.”.
The drop comes on the same day as Microsoft release two of there big games Bioshock and Blue Dragon and should increase the sales of the 360.
